CH 2- Midnight Meeting
The night was too quiet even for Gotham in the small hours where usually the crime would take the charge. Not even a robbery was happening tonight and the Batman knew that he had to go without taking any action that he should.
"I thought I would find you here." A voice that was brush of a velvet sent a shiver down his body.
Not allowing to fall for his emotions again, the Batman turned around and he knew that she was already there leaning in a seductive pose in that black leather suit with the bird-like mask that was covering her features.
"Nightgale," He spoke firmly her name but no emotion was there as he did so and she kept watching him." Why do you keep following me around?"
"You are in the part of my neighborhood and you know that you can not wander around without my premission." Came her reply.
"I have nothing against you."
"And yet your presence here is about to stir the trouble." Batman frowned at this." You know it very well I can not let you wander here on your own."
"Is that a threat I might hear from you?" He dared to look straight into her eyes.
"No just a warning," Came reply and her eyes narrowed as she stared back at him." Do not try my patience Batman or you might end up without your eyes or worse I can easily break those wings of yours."
"Go ahead," Batman opened his arms releasing his cape to her eyes." I am wide open for your to take your move."
"Do you think I would fall for that?" Again her mocking reply set him over the edge." Pity I guess I have to go home alone with no one to warm a bed with."
"Maybe I could be at your service?"
"Nah, I think you had already blew that chance," she turned to leave only to find him standing before her blocking her way out.
"You have not seen nothing yet," He grabbed her by the shoulders and gazed down into those blue pools of her eyes.
He expected her to fight back and resist him but he found none of that in her at all at this moment. She was simply standing there watching him like she was waiting for him to make his move.
"So what is it gonna be then?" She could feel his hot breath upon her face and that was incredibly sexy now," I m waiting."
"How about the kiss?" She could not believe she was actually saying that.
Batman narrowed his eyes now as she was actually getting his attention now and he had to admit he had been interested in her way too long even though he tired not to admit that to himself.
"And what if I refuse?"
"Why? Do you think I would do you a harm by just kissing you once?"
Oh, she was playing with a fire now and not even bothered if it burned her so bad right now. She had not moved from being so close to him.
"So, what is it going to be then Batman?"
