Things in the life of Harley Quinn had finally begun to look up. Over the past few weeks, things had been very difficult for Harley and her friends. They'd been reluctantly employed by a Los Angeles mob boss to intimidate a rival gangster. That had gone poorly and nearly led to quite the disaster. But in the end, Harley Quinn still came out on top. The very mob boss who forced them to work for him had given the girls a beach house he owned after they saved his life.
And so, for the past several days, Harley, Ivy, Selina and Magpie were all enjoying living at a luxurious Los Angeles beach house. On this particular morning, Harley did something unusual and actually managed to wake up early of her own volition. Ivy had still managed to wake up before her but Harley didn't really care. She put on her house slippers and a t-shirt and left her bedroom, ready to face the day.
She left the room and smelled breakfast being cooked downstairs, Selina usually put herself in charge of putting breakfast together. So Harley decided to let Selina take care of that while she enjoyed the morning. She walked down the hall and over to the house's upstairs balcony which gave Harley a great view of the beach.
Stepping out onto the Balcony, Harley found that Ivy was already relaxing on a lawnchair on the balcony. She wore a bikini that left little to the imagination. "Hey there Ives, enjoyin' the sunshine?"
"Mmm, absolutely…" Ivy sighed happily. "It does wonders for my body."
"Great to hear." Harley giggled, sitting down on a chair next to Ivy. "So, ya likin LA?"
"I like the sunny weather." Ivy nodded. "And some of the food is pretty good too. Really as long as you're happy, I'm happy."
"Ya mean it?" Harley smiled.
"I sure do." Ivy nodded. "You're so beautiful and sweet… I just want you to be happy and feel good."
"Aww, I feel the same way 'bout you." Harley smiled and gave Ivy a kiss on the cheek.
"Thank you darling." Ivy smiled. "You know, I think there's enough room on this chair for us to cuddle."
"Ooh, I like the way ya think!" Harley cheered. She scooted over onto Ivy's chair and cuddled up with her. It was a little awkward at first but they managed. "Ahh, this is the life…"
"You said it." Ivy nodded. "Just relaxing in the sun without a care in the world."
"No cares 'cept for the woman I love." Harley giggled.
"Mmm, yes, that too." Ivy nodded, putting her arms around Harley. "We'll always look after each other."
"Girlfriend til the end." Harley smiled, glancing over at Ivy. The both of them remained silent for a little while, just enjoying the presence of one another and the warm rays of the sun over their bodies.
"So Harls, what do you think we should do next?" Ivy eventually asked.
"What'cha mean?" Harley asked, tilting her head at Ivy.
"Well I know how you are, we aren't going to stay in Los Angeles forever." Ivy said. "We're both very mobile, Selina too. Magpie just seems like she's along for the ride. So? Where do you want to go next?"
"Hmm… Lemme think about it." Harley remarked. "Maybe Mexico could be fun. Ya ever think about goin' down to Cancun?"
"That could be fun." Ivy nodded. "We can bring up this idea with the girls later. I'm sure they'd like it."
"I'll bet!" Harley cheered.
It was around then that the door to the balcony opened up again and Magpie stepped out. "Hey girls, Selina finished breakfast. We've got pancakes down there if you want."
"Ooh pancakes?" Harley smiled, sitting up a bit "What kind?"
"Blueberry I think." Magpie replied.
"Even better!" Harley cheered. "C'mon Pammy, let's go get some pancakes and a hot cuppa coffee."
"Mmm, alright." Ivy nodded, sitting up as well. She stretched out a bit before standing up. "Well, let's get some breakfast."
Harley took Ivy by the hand and they both followed Magpie downstairs to the kitchen where Selina was taking the last of the pancakes off the stovetop.
"Ah, hello girls." Selina smiled. "So good to see you. Ready for breakfast?"
"Sure am!" Harley cheered.
"Mmm, smells great in here." Magpie remarked as she walked next to Selina.
"Thank you." Selina smiled. She leaned in and gave Magpie a quick kiss on the cheek.
Magpie froze up for a moment and blushed a bit. But she didn't say anything and simply kissed Selina back.
"Well, aren't you two a cute couple." Ivy smiled at them.
"We're not a couple." Magpie quickly said. "We just like kissing each other."
"Well, whatever floats yer boat." Harley giggled.
Magpie sat down at the table with the other girls while Selina placed down a large plate of pancakes on the table. Harley was quick to help herself to a few pancakes before carefully pouring some maple syrup over them.
"Thanks again for the breakfast, Selina." Harley said after taking a few bites of her breakfast.
"Yeah, this is good stuff." Magpie added.
"It's no big deal." Selina nodded. "I'm glad you girls like it."
They ate breakfast quietly for a few more moments before Ivy spoke up again. "Hey, me and Harley were talking about something earlier. We were wondering what you girls thought of it."
"What is it?" Selina asked.
"Well, we were thinkin' about where to go next." Harley explained. "We ain't exactly the type to settle down. Do you girls really wanna stay in LA forever?"
"Hell no, there's a big world out there." Selina said.
"Yeah, I haven't gotten out much. I wanna see more places." Magpie nodded.
"Have you girls ever been to Europe before?" Selina asked.
"No, but I've wanted to go." Ivy said.
"Well then, let's use this as an opportunity." Selina said. "We can take a tour of Europe. London, Barcelona, Paris, Venice. Sound good?"
"Ooh, absolutely!" Harley cheered. "Europe sounds like a perfect romantic vacation for a pair of happy couples like us."
"Me and Selina aren't a couple." Magpie said once more. "We just… It's… Selina can you explain it."
Selina sighed a bit and then laughed a little. "Magpie and I agreed that we're allowed to kiss and touch each other romantically until she can find a girlfriend."
"She's my… Replacement boyfriend…" Magpie mumbled.
"Whatever you wanna call it, we ain't judgin' ya." Harley said. "Anyway, we need to stay focused. We're gonna go to Europe. Or at least look into it."
"Have any other plans?" Selina asked.
"Well…" Harley trailed off. "I kinda miss Gotham. Think we can go back there after all this is over?"
"You know, I was thinking the same thing just yesterday." Selina remarked. "For as dark and gloomy as it is, Gotham is our home."
"Yeah I've been feeling the same way." Magpie nodded. "It would be nice to go back there."
"Let's go back there after our tour of Europe." Ivy said. "I've been keeping up with my rent payments back in Gotham, should be nice to go back there."
The four women continued eating their breakfast for a little while but were interrupted again when the doorbell rang, distracting their attention from their meal.
"Ooh, I'll get it!" Harley cheered, standing up from her seat. She went over to the front door and opened it up to reveal two friends of hers on the other side; the Trickster and Funky Flashman. She'd sent an email to them a few days ago letting them know she was back in Los Angeles once more and it looked like they'd taken her up on her offer to come visit. "Well hey there boys, good to see ya!"
"It's great to see you too Harley." Trickster smiled. "Hope we haven't come at a bad time."
"Not at all, c'mon in." Harley said. She turned around and gestured for them to follow her. "It's great to see ya again."
Funky and Trickster followed Harley into the house, admiring the place as they entered the dining room.
"Nice place you got." Funky remarked. "Almost as nice as mine if I do say so myself."
"Thanks for the, um, compliment I think." Harley said as they entered the dining room. "Hey girls, guess who decided to stop by!"
"Oh, hello James, Funky." Selina politely nodded. "You're lucky I made so many pancakes."
"They sure smell good." Trickster smiled, eyeing the plate. "Hope you don't mind us stopping by."
"Not at all, the more the merrier." Harley went over and pulled two more seats up to the table before sitting back down at her own table. "It's nice to see ya again actually. I missed you while we were in Vegas."
"That's very nice of you to say." Trickster smiled as he took a seat. "Hope we can brighten up your morning."
"Honestly, being back in LA and seeing you guys feels like a great relief." Selina remarked as she served some pancakes to Funky and Trickster.
"That's great to hear." Funky chuckled as he picked up a bottle of maple syrup and poured some over his pancakes. "Say, I've got some good news for you ladies by the way."
"Ooh, what is it?" Harley asked, clasping her hands together.
"Production on my movie resumes in just two days." Funky said.
"But, uh, we will have to ask that you don't associate with the movie anymore." Trickster quickly said. "After what happened last time we can't afford any other incidents, no offence."
"None taken." Ivy shrugged. "I'm just glad to hear things are back to normal for you."
"Poison Ivy? Carin' about people? Did hell just freeze over?" Harley giggled, playfully nudging Ivy in the ribs.
"Hey, I can be nice if I want to." Ivy chuckled.
"Ya sure can!" Harley nodded and kissed her on the cheek.
"You've definitely helped me be a better person." Ivy chuckled, kissing Harley back.
"Glad to see you two are still getting along." Trickster remarked.
"Say… Is that mob guy still trying to kill you?" Funky asked. "His thugs haven't bothered me in a while."
"We kinda cut a deal." Harley said. "Long story short, Ivy saved his life and now he owes us big time. Gave us this big house and promised to keep out of our way."
"Heh, all's well that ends well." Trickster smirked a bit.
"Amen to that!" Harley cheered.
From that point, the six of them enjoyed breakfast together. Making small talk and eating the pancakes Selina had made for them. They eventually all finished their breakfast, which made Selina quite proud of her cooking skills. After a bit more small talk, Trickster and Funky said their goodbyes and left the house. Once the girls were alone they too went their separate ways. While Harley and Ivy decided to go upstairs, Selina and Magpie went to hang out the couch together.
Selina picked up the TV remote and flipped through the channels until she found a daytime talk show that would be entertaining to watch while she and Magpie chatted. Magpie leaned herself up against Selina and nuzzled her face against Selina's neck.
"Aren't you sweet…" Selina smiled and ran her fingers through Magpie's hair.
"Yeah, I am…" Magpie nodded, giggling a bit. "Sorry for being so cagey about telling people that I think you're cute."
"It's okay, I get it… You're just shy." Selina continued playing with Magpie's hair.
"You're so kind to me." Magpie smiled. "And you're beautiful."
"Thanks… You're beautiful too." Selina nodded, kissing Magpie on the forehead.
Magpie kissed Selina back on the lips, holding it there for a few moments. She pulled away and ran her fingers through Selina's hair. "I love you…"
"Careful, don't fall in love too much." Selina chuckled. "I'm a heartbreaker."
"I know…" Magpie nodded. "But it just feels nice to touch and be held by someone…"
"You're so cute." Seilna smiled. "I'm glad you're happy. So am I actually. I could be happy just sitting here with you and watching TV."
"Yeah, so can I…" Magpie said, holding Selina close to her.
"Aww, I love it when you get sentimental." Selina smiled.
While Selina and Magpie were enjoying their cuddle time on the couch, Harley and Ivy decided to enjoy some sunbathing back up on the balcony. They were both laid out on lounging chairs on the balcony, enjoying the sun over their body.
"Ahh, now if this ain't paradise I dunno what is." Harley sighed happily.
"You said it." Ivy nodded. "Beautiful, warm sunlight and the woman of my dreams."
Harley leaned over and gave Ivy a quick peck on the lips. "So… Wanna get naked?"
"I was just thinking of doing that." Ivy nodded. "There's nothing I love more than being naked in the sun."
"Should be fun!" Harley nodded, beginning to take off her shirt. "Ya ain't worried anyone's gonna see us, are ya?"
"If they do, we'll just tell them to stop looking." Ivy casually undid her swimsuit top before taking off the bottoms. "Ahh, much better."
Harley took off her shirt and underwear, joining Ivy in her nudity. "I feel naughty! It's fun bein' naughty."
"I don't feel naughty… I just feel relaxed." Ivy smiled. "It's like I'm in harmony with the world right now…"
"You're such a hippie." Harley sat up in her chair and glanced at Ivy. "But I agree with ya, bein' naked is fun. We both have great bodies."
"Oh, absolutely." Ivy smirked. "We've had plenty of opportunities to explore ourselves."
"Definitely!" Harley giggled, briefly glancing up and down Ivy's body. "I really am glad we ended up with each other. It's like we're perfect…"
"I know what you mean." Ivy nodded. "I'm so glad we can be so close with each other. Um… I hope this isn't too forward or anything, but I'd like to marry you one day."
"Aww, that's so sweet!" Harley giggled and kissed Ivy's cheek. "If I ever did get married I'd want it to be with someone like you." She sighed happily and leaned back against the chair. She reached out a bit and held Ivy's hand, an action which she reciprocated.
The life of a supervillain was unpredictable, violent and messy. But at that moment, with the two of them basking in the sun, Harley felt at peace with herself. She could have laid there for a long time, just her and Ivy together. Harley knew that chaos would come back into her life sooner or later. But right now, she had peace and she was going to use that time the best way she could.
A/N: Well that's the story! I'll be honest, this sequel didn't have as much direction as the original. With the first Harley story I did I had the whole thing planned out more or less from the start but with this one I improvised a lot more. The Vegas stuff only came into play because I kinda ran out of ideas for what to do in Los Angeles. Also I didn't mean for this story to be so constantly horny, that's just how it turned out for some reason. Anyway, I had fun writing this. I'm gonna take a break from writing fanfiction for a little bit. I wanna participate in NaNoWriMo this year and will be focusing on that. But once that's done, I do have a few fanfic ideas I might wanna try out. Hope you enjoyed this series! I know I liked writing it.
