Batman entered through the master bedroom window. Catwoman slinked in behind him and closed the window. She then put her hands on his cowl and kissed him as she pushed it back. She pulled back her own mask, still keeping the kiss.

Bruce took her chin with his thumb and index finger, and seperated the kiss. "Thank you for showing me those statues. That couldn't have been easy for you."

He let go of her chin and put his hands on her shoulders.

Selina furrowed her eyebrows. "No...it wasn't. It's sort of like a safe space for me. Like your cave."

"Yeah..." Bruce looked at the safe next to the bed, then back into Selina's eyes. She watched the gears turning in his eyes as the flickered back and forth.

"Kitten... you have your statues. I guess my equivalent would be my safe."

"Oh?"

Bruce let go of her, adjusted his gauntlet, and walked over to the safe. Selina followed. He grabbed the knob, turned it clockwise, then counterclockwise, then clockwise again. He then reluctantly grabbed the handle and opened it. He then stepped to the side. Selina took a step forward.

"Oh shit." she whispered.

"...Yeah." Bruce growled soflty.

Inside the safe was a golden watch with a brown stain on the face. Next to it was a pearl necklace, again with brown stains on it.

Bruce pressed the button on his collar and pulled off the cape and cowl. "I remember it so vividly. We were taking a short cut to the car, when a man with a gun came out of no where. Dad put his hand on my chest, pushing me behind him. The mugger told demanded the watch, his wallet, Mom's purse, and her pearls. Dad told him he could have whatever he wanted and handhanded him the wallet. When the mugger went to take it from him, Dad tried to punch him, but the mugger was too fast. He shot Dad in the chest then the head."

"Jesus..." Selina gasped.

"The blood spattered on Mom and I. She screamed. He got scared and shot her in the heart. The Wayne's died that night. Batman was born."

"You think you died too?" Selina asked, turning her head to him.

"The person I was... the person I was supposed to be..." he looked at the cowl.

"Wanna know what I think?" she asked.

"Of course."

"I think you were supposed to be a good man who was going to take care of Gotham. That man is still here.. and I'm in love with him."

Bruce closed the safe. "When?"

"When did I fall for you?"

"Yeah." he said, pulling her away from the safe and into his arms.

Selina embraced him. "I fell for Batman all the way back on the boat."

"Hmm. What about Bruce Wayne?"

Selina smiled. "He always gave me the impression he was lonely."

"He was." Bruce growled.

Selina looked up at him. "So when did Batman fall for Catwoman?"

Bruce took a deep breath. "I honestly don't know, Kitten... I mean yeah, I've always been attracted to you, but not.. in love... I mean, I am now.. but.. " Bruce tried.

"We wasted a lot of time." Selina said regretfully. "Maybe that's why we've been taking things so fast."

"We have?" Bruce asked suprisingly.

"Yeah... well we've had a lot of catching up, I guess."

Bruce walked over to the bed and set the cape and cowl down. He then turned on the lamp.

"Silk sheets. You're smooth." Selina purred in Bruce's ear. She then sat on the bed, unhooked the forearm guards, and slipped off the gloves. She then ran her bare hands over the blanket. Bruce was busy taking off his gloves and boots. Selina then grabbed his cowl.

"So how does this thing work anyway? How does it morph into shape?"

Bruce set the gauntlets and boots down and sat next to her.

"It's a smart material I invented."

"You didn't 'invent' this." Selina teased.

"I've trained my mind and body to their peak. I can invent whatever I want."

"Heh." she chuckled. "Well I.." she put the cape and cowl down. "invented thissss." she purred, kissing his lips.

Bruce held her hand and stroked her hair.

They then heard a vibrating sound. It came from the cowl.

Bruce growled.

"I didn't hear anything." Selina said.

"Pass the cowl."

"Ugh." Selina groaned, then handed him the mask.

Bruce grabbed it, reached in the mouth part, and pulled out a small ear piece.

"Deja vu." Selina teased.

"Shush." Bruce scolded, putting in the earpiece "This is Batman" he growled.

"Batman, this The Flash. You got a minute?"

Selina started biting his ear.

"No. Make it fast."

"Prrrr..." Selina rattled

"Uh... what was THAT?" Barry asked.

"I'll tell you about it later, Barry. Why'd you use the comm?"

"I've just intercepted an armed convoy in Central carrying crate labeled 'VNM-271'. That sound familiar?"

"Damn." Bruce growled.

Selina unbuckled his belt and started to take off her boots.

"Yeah, but why is he peddling this garbage in my city all of a sudden?" Barry asked, clearly annoyed.

"I don't know." he sighed, then watched Selina as she slipped off her boots. He eyed her calfs, then her thighs. Selina started kissing his neck again.

"I don't think I've ever heard you utter those words, Bruce."

"Whatever. I'll contact the rest. Batman out."

"Ok-" The Flash tried to reply, but Bruce had already pressed the button on the piece and put it on the night stand.

"Bruce?" she whispered.

"I need to text Barbara."

"Oh." she muttered, pulling away.

Bruce leaned forward, opened the drawer, and pulled out a phone. He pressed the on button.

"I'm going to have her mobilize everyone tomorrow night. Jason will want to do some recon ahead of time."

The phone turned on.

"Are you leaving?" Selina asked.

Bruce looked at her. "No, Kitten. Not this time."

Selina smiled and kissed his temple. "Good, 'cause I'm gonna need help getting out of this suit, and you're just so... gentle."

"Mmm." Bruce grunted happily. He unlocked the phone and pressed the app icon that had Oracle's symbol on it. He started to type.

O, follow up with The Flash.

Three dots wiggled.

Just got word. BG and RH are willing to mobilize.

Bruce felt the bed rumble. Selina crawled to the center of the bed.

No. I want you and the others to handle any potential shipments here. The Flash and I will handle Bane.

The others won't like it.

Neither would Barry if I told him we'd handle it. Central City is his turf.

Understood. Out.

Bruce locked the phone, put it back in the drawer, and closed it.

"Looks like I'm going to Central City tomorrow." Bruce said.

"Then we should make tonight last." Selina purred seductively.
