Chapter 2: Father
"I'm sorry Mr. Todd. Mr. Wayne is in a meeting that can't be interrupted. Mr. Stark and Mr. Wayne have been in there for two hours." I glanced at Jason who raised an eyebrow at his father's assistant. From what Jason has told me about his father, he never really liked meetings or the fact he found them boring or unimportant. Though, he always being hounded by the board of directors. So, I guess it's understandable.
"Do you know how long they will be in there?" Jason asked and I glanced towards the polished wooden doors of the boardroom. Right behind those doors is Bruce Wayne. Jason's adoptive father. The billionaire and the Dark Knight of Gotham. Yeah, I told Jason I know because of Talia said she could trust me. Her son Damian is Bruce's true born son. Meaning his blood son. Talia trusted me with this information because she wanted me to get away from my father. She didn't trust him. She has watched me all my life being turned into a killer, a weapon and she didn't want the for me. Talia became like a second mother figure to me. She took care of me when I became badly wounded by my father's abuse. The way he trained me caught her attention and so did Talia's father. They both agreed whenever my father would be on a mission, she would train me the right way and Ra would teach me the morals way of being human and learning more about the world before me.
"To be honest, I don't know when they will be done. They have been going back and forth about the arc reactor project. They should be taking a break for lunch pretty soon. If you would like, you are both more than welcome to wait in his office. I don't think he would mind." I glanced back at Jason who nodded and gave the assistant a small smile.
"Thank you Sheila." I felt Jason's fingers interlace with mine and lead me towards his adoptive father's office.
"He'll be happy to see you Mr. Todd." Jason froze and I squeezed his hand lightly. "There's not a day goes by he would stare out his window and start thinking about you." I glanced at Jason whose eyes glistened with unshed tears. "It's good to have you back Mr. Todd." He glanced at Sheila and gave her a frim nod and quickly pulled me towards his adoptive father's office. I looked back at Sheila, gave her a small smile and nodded a thank you to her. She didn't have time to respond because once we made it to the office, Jason shut the door quickly and leaned his back against the door. He shut his eyes and the tears finally fell down his cheeks. It pains my heart to see Jason like this. From what he told me about the Lazarus Pit, it messed him up pretty bad. There are times where he has his good days and he would be his rude, sarcastic self. He would sneak into her room tell me about his adventures that would make me smile with adoration and laugh until my stomach hurt. Then there are the bad days.
"So he does care about me." He whispered and I knew it's going to be one of those days. So, without thinking about my actions, I walked towards Jason and wrapped my arms around his neck. I could feel him tense up, but then relax and he wrapped his arms around my waist.
"Sometimes heroes fall despite their strength, but you get right back up and give 'em hell." I slightly pulled away to look at him and our faces were mere inches apart from each other. My clover eyes met with his bright blue eyes and our warm breaths touched each other skin. I felt my stomach lurch forward with excitement and I could feel my heart beat against my chest a mile a minute. I felt this weird feeling inside of me and I felt dizzy just breathing in Jason's cologne. My eyes slightly glanced down at his lips for a minute then I looked back at his eyes. I opened my mouth to speak, but both of Jason's hands cupped my face and his lips captured mine.
My brain didn't comprehend what was happening, but that didn't stop me from kissing him back. I felt one hand remove from my face and wrapped around my waist. My arms tightened around his neck and he pulled me closer to his body. Our lips moved in sync, the heat of our bodies close together as they melted together and he ran his teeth against the bottom of my lip. A moan escaped from my lips that sent shivers down my spine.
Suddenly, I broke the kiss and removed myself from Jason's embrace. I turned away from him so I wouldn't have to look at his confused handsome face, ran my hand through my violet hair and let out a shaky breath. I felt the tears threatening to escape my eyes, but I pushed my emotions back. I don't want to be weak in front of Jason and his adoptive father. I don't know what's coming over me. I'm not this emotional. I'm an assassin for god sakes. Or was. A comforting hand touched my shoulder and I glanced behind me and saw Jason with a concern expression.
"Did I do something wrong?" I bit the bottom of my lip nervously and shook my head. I turned away from him again only this time he didn't have enough time to speak again. The door to the office opened and they both looked towards the door of the office. My eyes slightly widened as I see well-built fifties man slowly walk in his office. I could see a few gray hairs on the side of his hairline and wearing what appears to be a very expensive suit. I softly gulped the lump in my throat and let out a shaky breath. I glanced at Jason who took a step back away from me and a blank expression crossed his face. His shoulders tensed up immediately and his posture went stiff. My mind finally has concluded. This is Bruce Wayne of Wayne Enterprises and Jason's father.
"Jason." He spoke in calm tone and heard Jason take in a breath.
"Bruce." I closed my clover eyes and slightly bowed my head. What the hell have I gotten myself into?
