Sheldon's PoV

(Ok admittedly I have no idea what dear Sheldon would dream about so I'm winging it, but he does pull off the Batman voice rather well so I thought this was apt, Oh and if you notice about 6 lines of dialogue are pilfered from the 1992 movie "Batman Returns" as though Sheldon was dreaming he was in the movie before it moves into his dream proper).

Gotham City was quiet, too quiet. Admittedly I had just apprehended some would be jewel thieves as they tried to break into the Museum of Antiquities, but only one incident a night was a slow night for me. A city this size, something was always going on. I decided to get an aerial view of the city. I released my grappling hook and it caught on the top floor fire escape, I pressed the button and was pulled gracefully skywards. That was when I saw her, leather cat suit and mask, whip attached to her belt, perched on the fire escape of the opposite building. She appeared to be eating ice-cream from a Ben and Jerry's tub. Odd. She saw me and smiled, placing her ice-cream down for a black cat purring by her feet. In a flash she had produced her whip and in an exceptional display of gymnastics she managed to pull her way onto the roof of the building I was stood on. I ventured up the ladder to join her on the roof.

"What's a Bat doing in this cat's neck of the woods?" She purred. Catwoman friend or foe, that depended on her mood. Just like any woman really.

"Protecting the city's treasures" I replied stiffly. Although she was an attractive woman, I didn't like having to answer to anyone.

"Oh yes your little cowboy routine by the Museum, I'd have helped but you seemed to have everything under control" She said looking up at me, that was when I noticed her eyes were bright green. I was sure they were blue before. We walked along the rooftop together both scouting for trouble.

"I guess the Museum's not part of your territory" I said.

"It's close enough that I keep an eye on it, but if a tall dark and broody Bat wants to save me the effort of whipping criminals into submission, fine by me". She smiled that sultry smile that made even me go a little weak at the knees, not that I'd ever tell her that.

"You're in a good mood tonight, like the cat that got the cream"

"Well the ice-cream anyway. One of the perks of the job. Save a few souls, get a little attention." She winked.

"You don't seem like the type that would like being good" I responded. Taking in her outfit, one step away from being a dominatrix's dream. Everything about her exuded confidence and raw sexuality. She enjoyed teasing me, enjoyed the power she had over me. It has been said that people can only really get under one another's skin if they care about each other. I wondered then if she really cared about me, or if it was all part of her act.
"I'm not, but I'm starting to enjoy the fringe benefits. It's a... long story"

She looked at me then, straight in the eyes and held up a single sprig of mistletoe. I thought absently of bath bombs. She whispered in my ear "A kiss under the mistletoe. You know, mistletoe can be deadly if you eat it"
"But a kiss can be even deadlier... if you mean it" I replied, as I slowly stroked the side of her face. Like a real cat she moved her face into my outstretched hand and purred contentedly. That was when she reached over and gently pulled back my mask, I looked into her eyes. I saw myself reflected in them, not Bruce Wayne, Billionaire industrialist. Instead I saw Dr Sheldon Cooper PHD. My Catwoman didn't shy away, just smiled that winning smile of hers. She kissed me, and it was like all the fire in the world had been absorbed and placed within the microcosm of that single kiss.

"You know, I could... free up some time" I said as I remained perched on the edge of the building.
"I'm listed" She said as she rose to her feet with all the grace her feline nature afforded her.
"I'm tempted" I whispered hoarse. Just then we saw a woman walking slowly down the alleyway below us, her arms were full of groceries and she was obviously trying to get her keys out of her purse without dropping everything. We both glanced at one another as we heard the second and third set of footsteps. We registered what was going to happen before the woman below did.
"I'm working" My Catwoman sighed. I slipped my mask back on.
"I'm helping" I added. We jumped down simultaneously, landing to the left of the startled woman, she began to drop her bags, but of course my companion caught the bags before they fell, handing them back to the confused woman. I nodded towards the doorway at Catwoman. She understood, and helped the woman inside whilst I turned to face the two men who were at the far end of the alley. They looked smug, that was their first mistake.

"Hey look Vinnie it's the Bat freak" one said to the other.

"I'm Batman" I said in my deepest voice, the one which usually made criminals wary.

"Yeah and I'm supposed to be scared of that?" The shorter of the two men asked.

"Hey where's your sexy friend gone?" The taller goon asked. There was a leer on his face I just didn't like.

"Ooh I'd like to see what's under that suit huh Reggie" The taller man smirked in response. By now both men had their hands at their sides, in the same instant, there was a metallic click, they had pressed the buttons on their knives to release their switchblades. Unfortunately for them it was the same moment my Catwoman had decided to land on them. While they were indulging in trash talk about me and my lady friend, they failed to notice her lithely journey along the fire escape she had been perched on earlier. Nor had they notice how I nodded as soon as they were in alignment with her jump. I produced a reel of thin but strong metal wiring, my own design, strong but flexible. It should hold them until the police came.

"Nice moves" I smiled, as she was still stood with her heels digging into the backs of the two louts.

"Nice equipment" She quipped back.

"You're not the first woman to comment on it" I responded. I loved our verbal ping pong, it kept me sharp, and there was something deeply enjoyable about being able to banter with a beautiful woman. She removed her feet from the thugs then, and slowly walked towards me sizing me up.

"You wanna take these idiots in yourself?" She asked me, batting her eyelashes at me.

"Well you're a wanted woman, it's not like you should show your face down at the police station"

"You're not the first man to tell me I'm wanted, nor are you the first man to want me" she purred. Oh how I loved that voice of hers. Yet I'm sure there was a mid-western twang in it there hadn't been before.

"How about a kiss for good luck?" I asked looking down at her, glad she was smiling.

"You don't need luck" she whispered in my ear, and turned to go. Abruptly she swung back round and jumped onto me her legs around my waist, she kissed me then, softly. "But maybe you'll need another life from this Kitty Cat, and hey I've got eight more" She kissed me then more passionately that she had even on the roof. What a woman.

She dropped down and slowly removed her mask. The goons were now unconscious so there was no chance they'd be able to identify her. Her blonde hair tumbled out behind her. She wasn't Selina Kyle. Her green eyes twinkled in the darkness and she giggled at the recognition in my eyes.

"Goodnight Sheldon" she whispered as she kissed my cheek, then she pulled the mask back on and ran off into the Gotham night.

That was when I woke with a start "Danger Danger" I cried. I looked over at my clock 7am. I pulled back my covers and glanced at my dishevelled duvet, unusual, it was normally pretty tidy when I got up. I shrugged and continued on my morning journey, I walked out of my room as I tried to recall my dream, playing it back in my mind. I walked into the kitchen and selected something from the low end of the fibre spectrum for my morning cereal. That was when she walked into the apartment.

"Morning Sheldon"

"Morning Penny" I replied "Is there something I can help you with?"

"I'm out of milk you mind?" Penny asked.

"Do I mind that you are out of milk? No. If you wish to borrow some milk, very well, but really Penny you should check on supplies before leaving your apartment so you can purchase some after work."

"Do you go shopping after work?" She asked clearly sceptical. Admittedly on the first occasion she had taken me to the market I had seemed a little surprised by it all.

"Of course not Leonard does" she looked pointedly at me "But I tell him what we require" at that point Penny rolled her eyes and gave me a typical shut up look. Uncomfortable, I went to the fridge and grabbed a carton of milk which only retained a third of its original content. I handed it to her.

"Thanks" she smiled at me lighting up the room. I blinked as I realised what I had forgotten about my dreams ending. Penny stalked out of our apartment and closed the door behind her.

Leonard then emerged from his room in his robe, "What was that"

"She's the Catwoman to my Batman" I whispered to myself.

"What?" Leonard asked? He had been mid yawn, and hadn't heard my reply.

"She borrowed some milk" I replied, still staring after her. Leonard noticed me staring and asked.

"She make fun of your cereal again?" He asked.

"No..." I replied, then I walked over to my cereal collection and grabbed a box closer to the higher end of the fibre content.

(Ok what do you think? Oh thanks to all the people who have favourite this story and reviewed it, it's greatly appreciated. Lol sorry if this chapter is a little cheesy I was trying to make it as close to an old Batman movie as I could). x
