Harley stood frozen at the edge of her birdcage cell. She couldn't believe what was happening. After the initial shock of the first explosion wore off, her instincts kicked into overdrive. She ducked behind her newly installed coffee machine and covered her ears.
Guards, or what she thought to be guards had jumped through the hole in the wall and begun shooting at other Belle Reve guards. She had no idea who these people were, or who she was supposed to be afraid of.
They all look the same!
She let out a small scream as one of the guards began sawing at the heavy-duty metal door to her cage and covered her eyes. She was still exhausted from the events of midway city and her body ached. She had no idea how she was supposed to take on thirty plus guards without any weapons. She prayed it wasn't Griggs playing some sort of sick joke on her. She wasn't in the mood for him today.
After she had been returned to Belle Reve after the battle of midway city, he had been more than pleased to see Harley back. She shuddered at the thought of the 'extra' feeding sessions he had subjected her to, claiming she needed it to regain her strength after such a physically demanding effort of the battle. There had also been the beatings after the feedings sessions. Where four guards would hold her down whilst Griggs 'taught her some manners'. She was always at her weakest after the feedings, her body desperately tried to keep down the vile liquid she had been forced to consume.
Prick.
As the saw sliced through the door it was wrenched open by one of the guards. He took a step back as another single guard walked through the door into Harleys cage. Three more guards appeared at the door of the cage and took up a protective stance, keeping their guns trained at the doors on the far side of the room.
Harley couldn't see who this mysterious guard was, his face was covered by a thick black gas mask. Emblazoned across his chest was 'joker' along with a guard number. Harley couldn't allow herself to believe it was her puddin, this hallucination would kill her and besides she had seen the helicopter crash with her bare eyes. The guard reached up with a black gloved hand and ripped the gas mask away from his face, throwing it into the corner of the cage.
Harley threw herself at him.
"Puddin!" She squeaked.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed herself as close to him as she possibly could. She would never let him go again if she could get away with it. J wrapped his arms around her and returned her embrace.
"Let's go home. " He said, with a hint of relief in his voice.
Harley choked back tears, she couldn't believe it, her puddin was here, in her cell!
"Puddin, I though, I thought you were dead! How? I can't…" J cut her off by placing a scorching kiss on her lips. Her could taste her tears and smell her cherry sent. It was faint, but it was there. He groaned and deepened the kiss, tracing her tongue with his own.
Harley melted into him, if she died in this moment she wouldn't have cared. He pulled away and looked at her. He grinned his cocky smirk that made Harley weak.
"Miss me Harls?" he said, whilst holding her at arm's length so he could check her body for any injuries. He could tell she had lost weight, even though it had only been a couple of weeks since he seen her on the helicopter. His heart twitched, well the place where his heart should be. He cleared his throat.
"Come on baby, lets blow this place." he sniggered at his own joke.
Harley squealed again as his lifted her into his arms. She wrapped her arms around his neck and swung her slipper clad feet about in joy. As he began to walk out of her cell, she couldn't take her eyes off his face. The henchmen, Harley had now realised that's who the fake guards were, formed a protective circle around the pair as they walked out of the special security prison.
The rain was falling heavily. J laughed as his henchmen continued to fire bullets at the last few remaining guards who dared to face him. The water ran off J's helmet and onto Harleys face. Her orange jumpsuit was drenched and stuck to her too thin body. Even though she was freezing, hungry and in pain, she had never felt happier.
J stepped into the back of a waiting black van and the rest of the henchmen piled in after him. As J sat down with Harley on his knee, she noticed her case with all her belongings in it was there in the back of the van. Harley smiled and felt herself relax for the first time in weeks. Her eyes were still locked on J's face.
"You know Harls, if you took a picture it might last longer." J smiled down at her. He hadn't lost his cocky attitude.
"I really missed you puddin, I can't help it!" Harley felt herself welling up again.
"Shh, no crying now Harls, daddy wants to see his girl with a smile after he went to all this effort to rescue her." His voice was stern but his eye were soft as they looked into Harleys. He couldn't let his henchmen think he had a soft side.
"Sorry daddy" Harley hiccupped as she snuggled into him. She closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep with the feel of the Jokers gloved hand stroking her back. Harley slept the entire way back to Gotham city, she didn't even wake when the joker barked orders at the henchmen, telling them to hold his business meetings for the next few days. He wanted to see his Harley without any distractions.
Harley woke to the Joker shaking her shoulder.
"Welcome home baby" he said whilst sliding her off his lap. They were inside their large underground garage at the hideout. Joker stood up and stretched his muscles. He hated being cooped up. The henchmen piled out of van and into the hideout, not wanting to get in the way of the boss and his reunion with his girl.
"Come on, lets go inside." J said as he lead Harley out of the van and into their hideout. Lucky, the henchmen had cleared up the destruction the Joker had caused in Harleys absence. He didn't want her to know that her being gone affected him as much as it did.
Harley laughed as she noticed the empty bottles of whiskey lined up on the island in the kitchen. Harley raised her brow at him.
"Miss me pud?" she repeated his earlier words back at him.
The Joker growled and threw her over his shoulder, then stormed to their bedroom. Harley let out high pitched giggles as The Joker tickled her.
Yeah he missed me alright.
When they reached the bedroom, the Joker threw her on their bed. She gasped as the impact caused her bruised ribs to throb painfully.
The joker caught her reaction and frowned. He reached for the hem of her jumpsuit but Harley quickly pulled it down.
"I'm fine pud, really! Now aren'tcha gonna kiss me?" she said coyly, trying to make him forget about her reaction. She didn't want him to know she hadn't been strong enough to fight off Griggs. He'd be so disappointed.
J shot her a warning glance. "Harley. Let me see."
"But J.."
"Harley." J growled, he had that look that meant she was on her last warning.
Shit.
Harley reluctantly let go of his hands and allowed him to remove her orange prison top. The joker's eyes darkened as he took in his harlequins body. She was covered in bruises. A big purple bruise covered her right rib cage, and distinct finger prints littered the tops of her arms. Finger prints that were not his. He growled and Harley covered her eyes with her arms.
"Who did this to you?" the Joker gritted out. He hovered over her body on the bed, not taking his eyes off the bruise on her ribs. Harley didn't reply.
"Harley. I won't ask again. Who. Did. This?"
Harley peeked at him through her fingers and sighed. She couldn't escape this.
"I'm sorry puddin, I tried to fight. I did. But there were too many of them! They held me down and took turns to hit me. I didn't cry though puddin! I remembered what you said! To not let them see my fear. So I just smiled the whole time. They didn't like that though. Especially Griggs…"
Harley trailed off as the Joker's eyes darkened even more.
"Griggs! As in Griggs who I paid to give you the phone? That Griggs!? Son of a bitch!" J seethed. He looked down and saw a tear slip from Harleys eye.
"it's okay baby, I don't blame you. Daddy will find him and we will make him pay."
He leaned down and began to trail kisses over her bruised ribs. Harley sighed as she realised his anger wasn't directed at her and relaxed into the mattress. The silk sheets under her body felt like heaven after her scratchy green cot at Belle Reve.
He kissed up her body and found her lips. His kiss said everything that he couldn't. That he missed her and that he hurt because she was hurt. Harley sighed and wrapped her around his neck. She stroked the bottom of his green hair and kissed him back with equal passion. She didn't speak as he reached around her and unclasped her plain white bra. Once her bra was off he wasted no time kissing her newly exposed flesh. Harley moaned and arched her back into him. She had thought she would never get to feel him ever again when the helicopter crashed in front of her.
She sighed again and he trailed his mouth lower. He hooked his fingers into her orange track pants and pulled them off, along with her white underwear. She was completely naked and exposed beneath him. Harley looked up at him lovingly.
Still straddling her body, he pulled his black bulletproof vest off along with the rest of his fake Belle Reve uniform. Harleys hand immediately sort out his joker tattoo that ran along his abdomen. He moaned as she used her nails to scratch his flesh lightly. He literally couldn't wait any longer. He was throbbing as he positioned himself at her entrance. He could feel that she was ready for him, she always was.
"Please J." she moaned out.
"Please what?" he asked back, teasing her entrance as he slowly slid himself back and forth along it.
"Please daddy, I want you. Pretty please." she begged.
The Joker grew impossibly harder at her words. She always knew what to say. He pushed into her warmth and she tightened around him.
"Fuck, Harley" J ground out. Harley just moaned back in response.
He started to thrust in and out of her and her head rolled back in pleasure. She grasped onto his hair and pulled harshly. J moaned again and picked up his pace.
"Look at me." he demanded, never slowing his pace down. Harley looked up at him, the lust was shining in her eyes.
"You're mine. Say it. Say it baby. Who do you belong to?"
"You puddin, I'm, oh god, I'm yours." Harley could barely breathe. He felt so good inside of her. His pace was ruthless and he hit a spot inside of her that made her tingle with every thrust.
"Good girl" J praised. He could tell she was close. It had been so long for both of them. She clenched around him and he could tell she was fighting off her orgasm until she had his permission.
"Come on baby, I wanna feel you." J said as he reached down and rubbed her clit with his thumb.
"Oh, oh, ah, J. Mistah J!" she screamed as she came around him.
That name, Mr J. He hadn't heard that delicious name leave her mouth since he'd rescued her and it finished him off. He groaned and buried his face in her neck as he filled the inside of her.
"Jesus Christ Harls." he gasped as her body continued to clench around him.
He slipped out of her and she whimpered at the loss of contact. He rolled over onto his back and opened his arms to allow Harley to cuddle into him. She kissed his jester tattoo and settled her head on his shoulder.
"I love you so much mistah J. I was worried you wouldn't come back for me. The voices said you wouldn't." Harley admitted.
"Baby, you know daddy will always come for his best girl. He'd burn cites to the ground and kill thousands just to find you." Joker said. He let out a yawn as his eyes drooped.
Harleys heart swelled at his words. She yawned as she caught sight of J yawning. Both of them clearly hadn't been sleeping without the comfort of each other. J reached over and turned out the light, then turned over and wrapped his arms around Harley, spooning her.
"Tomorrow, we will have some fun baby, starting with Griggs." The joker said whilst pulling her tighter against his body. Harley rubbed his arm that was across her waist and replied sleepily.
"Can't wait puddin."
They both smiled into the darkness as they drifted to sleep, content in the knowledge that, tomorrow, they would make everyone pay who had hurt them.
