Kei-Kei Yuki: So I decided to move this drabble series over on FanFic as seeing how it's been posted over on Ao3 since late last year, but I want to share with you guys over as well. Okay so this drabble series was inspired from the DC T.V. series that I've been obsessed with as of lately, but my favorite, other than DC Legends of Tomorrow, is The Flash. Who I am the most familiar with, seeing how this character has always been my favorite DC character for a long time. This series will also include a Fem!Kid-Flash, yet taken from the Young Justice series, then from the T.V. series. For the most part, Barry Allen is more similar to her T.V. series male counterpart than her animated and comic-book counterpart. (Never read the comic books. Sorry~!)

Pairing: Bruce x Barry

Scarlet One: Late Night

When Bruce made his way through the Wayne Manor, walking in the overly spacious living room, he saw a sight that melted his own cold heart. It seemed that sometime during the movie, which was still playing on the screen, the two figures on the couch must have fallen asleep. A peaceful expression was on his young ward's face, snoring softly as he rested his head on Barry's lap.

She was dressed in nothing but an oversized Star Lab T-shirt and some shorts, head leaning back against the couch and short blonde tousled locks looking more in disarray than usual. Scattered around them were bags of flavored potato chips, candies, popcorn, and other various types of sweets and fatty snacks.

"Alfred, I take it that they enjoyed themselves tonight." Bruce walked around the couch to pick up his ward first, shooting the butler a look. "Let me put him to bed first, then I will come back for Barry."

"As you wish, Master Wayne." Alfred gave a curt bow before exiting the room. Following through with what he said, Bruce took Robin to bed first, before making his way back to Barry. Lifting the petite blonde in his arms easily, he made his way to the master bedroom, gently setting her down on the bed before removing his business suit to take a shower.

When he exited the bathroom with nothing but a towel wrapped around his waist, he saw Barry sitting up, cutely rubbing her eyes like an adorable kitten. Then she made eye contact with him. Once she took in his half-nakedness, she blushed the color of her Flash suit, covering her face with a pillow.

"Clothes, Bruce! Clothes!" she exclaimed.

If there was one thing Bruce adored about Barry, it was her sense of innocence, an innocence that he found himself wanting to protect yet taint at the same time. He made no effort to cover himself; drops of water ran down his tall and muscular physique that looked as if it was sculptured by a Greek god. Using the second towel, he dried his wet raven locks of hair.

"I see nothing wrong with my state of dress for you to shy away from. Especially since we already have had sexual intercourse."

"Oh my god! Bruce, just say sex!" Barry tried hiding under the warm and luxurious soft blankets, hearing a deep chuckle come from Bruce. Sensing his footsteps advance her way, she felt the bed dip as he sat down next to her. Gently reaching for the covers, he pulled them away from her face and saw that she was once again blushing like a cherry.

"So innocent," smirked Bruce.

"Hey! Leave me and my innocents alone!" exclaimed Barry, still blushing like a cherry.

"I still can't believe you were a virgin at the prime young age of twenty-five," Bruce commented as Barry protested once again.

"Hey! At a young age, sex was scary, and when I was finally ready, I could never find the right person, but... then I met you, and it just seemed right, Bruce." Barry smiled, and whenever Bruce saw Barry smile, it never failed to bring a thousand sunrises to mind. Despite how cheesy and corny it may have sounded, along with it being completely out of character, when it came to Barry-or he should say Beatrice 'Belle' Allen- she caused emotions, that he thought were nonexistent in his heart, to rise to the surface.

These emotions made him feel uneasy, like a predator approaching an unknown and dangerous territory. Such words as love and happiness did not exist for Bruce Wayne nor for Batman, but like a flash, Barry had changed that. She appeared in his life like a beacon of hope and light, but not just to him, the same could be said for Dick and Alfred, who both adored the pure-hearted blond whenever she visited the manor.

"Is that so..." Despite the emotions, he was feeling right now deep within his frigid, but somewhat caring heart, Bruce's expression remained stoic and neutral.

"Awww, you're touched by my words. How cute~!" Barry boldly pinched his cheek, earning a glare of annoyance from him.

"Stop that, now." He used the voice that he usually saved for scolding Dick, receiving a snicker from Barry. She simply kissed his cheek, ignoring his glaring stoic eyes, before laying her head back down on the pillow.

"Whatever you say, Brucey~!"

"... Do not call me by that name." After putting on some dark sweatpants, Bruce climbed into bed and laid down next to the blonde, who was already drifting back off to sleep. Draping an arm around the petite blond's waist, Bruce found himself drifting off to sleep as well. This was something he wasn't able to do for a long time, not until he officially accepted his feelings for a certain blonde speedster and later when he started a relationship with her, but even in the beginning, it had been quite a struggle.

Throughout the years, prior to meeting Barry and her coming into his life, every night after patrolling and protecting the streets of Gotham as the Batman, Bruce had no need for sleep. Every time he closed his eyes he saw the murder of his parents on that dark and dreary night. His dreams were filled with nothing but horror, but now, he dreamt of nothingness, which was better than the blood, murder, and gore that once had consumed his nights. And the person he had to thank for that was lying next to him, right in his arms.

Hope you all enjoy the story~!
