The Batmobile sped over Perdition Bridge, dodging the odd commuter or biker.
Batman continued to message Selina using Bruce Wayne's phone.
-Meet me in the alley behind Baudelaire's Boutique.
-Already a block away. ;)
Bruce began wondering how in the hell she guessed where to meet. He'd forgotten how cunning Catwoman could be.
"Batmobile command. Auto-pilot off."
Batman grabbed the steering wheel as the auto-pilot symbol inverted the colors.
He drove through Ryker Heights and into the Diamond District. He eventually found the aforementioned flower shop and pulled into the alley behind.
He picked up his phone back up. He began typing out "where are you?" before hearing a soft *thunk* on the roof. He pressed a button above him, unlocking the roof hatch on the passenger side.
Suddenly, the hatch directly above him opened.
Before he could even react to the abrupt blur of purple and black, he felt a fleshy mass on his lap and chest, a hand on his throat pushing his head back, and something moist on his lips and in his mouth.
Catwoman finally pulled away. She gave him a villainous smile.
Taking her hand off his throat, she gently wrapped her arms around his neck.
"How did you..." Batman began, before stopping when Catwoman's eyebrow raised.
"You need to fire your mechanic. I could've unlocked that in my sleep."
Batman smirked. She reminded him of the purring snores she makes when she's asleep.
She glared at him, eventually picking up on what caused that smirk. She snarled at him, lunged at his masked face, and bit the pointed nose piece of the cowl.
"Um...ouch?"
"You're an ass."
"Yeah... but I try."
She gave him the naughty grin.
"Let's do it in here."
"No. Not in the car."
She put her lips to his ear and purred.
Catwoman always did this kind of this to torment him or to entice him back when she was a criminal. It didn't work then, and he only let it work because he knew he actually could indulge.
He grabbed her by her sides and pushed her into the passenger seat. He then grabbed the steering wheel with one hand and the gear shift in another. Catwoman leaned back in the seat and crossed her legs.
He stepped on the gas and drove out of the alley.
"So what's the deal with the invasion from last night? Is the world ending or what?"
"No. Captain Marvel is gonna handle it."
"Okay."
Batman looked at her, then back at the road.
"Why did you put yourself at risk?"
"I thought we talked about this." she replied, rolling her eyes.
"I know but... just tell me why."
She took a deep breath.
"They pissed in my litterbox and tried to tear up my favorite toy. I had to do something."
"I just... I don't want you to-"
"No. Bruce, I wouldn't ask you to not go after, for example, the Joker because of how dangerous he is!"
Batman drove the car in silence.
"Just 'be careful', kitten." Batman replied in Bruce's normal octave.
Selina leaned her head on his shoulder.
"Okay. I love you, Bruce."
"I love you, too."
