Important Author's note
Before you start reading I have to tell you that this is not an entire Chapter. I tried my best but somehow I lost my muse with that story. I am really sorry to disappoint you but I worked on this Chapter for a few month and I didn't get anywhere with it. So I decided that I will abandon this story. If there is someone out there who want to continue this story just let me know . . .
However I thank all of you who reviewed because you kept me going.
Chapter 10
Part a
I left the room and leaned against the closed door. "Oh god. Ollie, I'm so sorry. I should have looked for you. How could I let you down?" I heard Chloe whisper.
I closed my eyes. "I assume you informed Miss Chloe." Alfred said.
"I did." I told him opening my eyes.
"May I suggest a cup of tea before you go out tonight Master Bruce?"
"Tea sounds nice Alfred but I think I'll take a Brandy instead." I said and made my way to the bar. Alfred followed me.
"Do you think it's wise to drink before Batman patrols the city?"
"Batman deserves a night off don't you agree?" I had never taken a night off before. There was too much crime to fight in Gotham but tonight I didn't care. It wouldn't do me any good. I couldn't focus on anything but Chloe and her love for Queen anyway.
"Was it a mistake to tell her? What if Oliver doesn't recover? She would be devastated. Chloe just accepted her new life and now she could be hurt again." I mused.
"Are you worried about her getting hurt or are you more afraid of losing her to another man?" Alfred said and left the room.
I enjoyed the slight burning sensation of the liquor as I tried to find the answer to Alfred's question. Of course I wanted Chloe at my side. I knew I could offer her a lot of things. But her heart belonged to Oliver and that scared me. It scared me because I cared too much.
I hoped that Oliver recovered for Chloe's sake. I didn't want to imagine Chloe going through such a horrifying experience again.
