I could say that dinner with Bruce Wayne was the most fun I had in this town but then I'd be lying. This was definitely NOT on my to do list. Imagine, sitting where I am, in front of Bruce Wayne, watching a blonde model rub his leg and flirt with him. I can only think of what she wants from him later.

We sit in silence for a couple of minutes until I break the ice. "So, Mister Wayne-"

"Please, call me Bruce" He interrupts. I stare at him and smile. "Okay then, Bruce how long have you and" I look at the model not knowing her name. "Natalie" She tells me with a English accent.

I nod my head and continue "Natalie have been dating?" I finish looking at Bruce. He calmly answered " Well this is our first date. But It's really just a date as friends." He smiled his -oh-so-famous-playboy smile. I smirk back. Of course they're just friends. I mean they'll go to his house, just as friends. Then they'll get cosy together, just as friends. Then he'll pull out a condom, just as friends. Then as soon as they know it, they'll be in bed, just as friends. I have to stop myself from laughing.

Natalie was looking around with disgust in her face. "No offence but who would raise a child in Gotham?" She asked looking at some children walking around with their mother.

"I was raised here and I turned out fine" Bruce told her. She turned her head and looked at him. "I know but that was back then. I mean now. Why would you raise our children in a town that has villains like Joker and masked vigilante like Batman?" That hit a button.

"I think we should be grateful for what Batman does" I told her. Braiden, who has been quite the whole time, looked at me. "Trinity" He warned but I ignored him. This was between me and blondie. I glared at her and she glared back.

" Grateful? He killed 5 men!"

"Really? How do you know that? I think-"

"He's a masked vigilante, that's how I know he did it!" She narrowed her eyes at me. It didn't bother me at all though.

"If you would know what the definition of vigilante is it is someone who enforces his or her own law when the authorities doesn't. Batman just stops criminals before they do the crime. If Gotham didn't have Batman it would be burned down. Either by the Joker or Crane or any other criminal!" I spat at her. I just wanted to punch this girl in the face.

Blondie glared at me and looked at Bruce. "What do you think Bruce? About Batman" She asked Bruce, who was just looking around seeming uninterested. "Hm?" He looked at us. "Oh? Batman? Well who ever dresses up as a Bat clearly has issues" He smiled. My mouth fell open. I shook my head and was about to give 'Brucey-boy' a piece of my mind when I heard someone beside me drop something.

We all looked beside me to see Braiden, standing up with his eyes narrowed at Bruce.

"Bruce, could I talk to you" Venom laced his voice. I could sense Braiden was mad. He was only mad when something really really REALLY bothers him. But what did Bruce do that is bothering him that much?

Bruce stood up and followed Braiden outside. Great, I was left with the blond bimbo.

(Braiden POV)

How could he? First he tries to get with the closes thing I have to a family, Then I find out he's Batman and he stopped Trinity from getting Violet and stopping them for good. Then he doesn't defend Trinity when her and the blonde gets into the fight? Even though he is the Batman. I have to do something.

I threw my fork down and stood up. All of them look at me. Trinity looked surprised, Blonde looked uninterested and Bruce looked like he was expecting it. "Bruce, could I talk to you? I ask letting the poison slither my words.

Bruce got up and Trinity just stared at me. I turn around and walk out with Bruce following me.

As soon as we were outside I turn to him but he kept walking. "Follow me" He said. I did and he lead me into a very nice looking car. 'Well of course it was he is Bruce Wayne' I thought as I got in.

He looked down as he spoke " Your a very smart boy. How did you find out?" Wait, He knew that I knew? I give him a confused look. He sighs and finally looks up at me. " I know that look you gave me when Trinity started talking about Batman. I knew you knew." He tells me. I look at my hands which are folded up in my lap. "You have to help her" I whisper. "She's the closes thing I have to a family." I was a orphan and all alone until Trinity found me. My parents just abandon me when I was five. I went and lived at a orphanage but it wasn't the best one. It was horrible. I hated it there. When I was 14 I ran away, never to come back. I lived on the street for a year. I was smart though. Very. I would go into the local library, reading and learning.

Trinity found me one day. It was actually my 15 birthday. I don't know why but she liked me and asked me to live with her. Of course I didn't refuse.

I look up from my lap to see Bruce staring at me, understandment written in his eyes. "I will" His words help a promise to them. I know now that, unlike many people in Gotham, I can trust Bruce. I can trust Batman.

(Trinity POV)

I glare at her. She glares back. This goes on for a couple of minutes until finally Braiden and Brucey-Boy comes back. Braiden sits beside me and smiles a reassuring one. Why I don't know. "Well let's call it a night, shall we" I turn to Bruce who stood up and offered his hand to help me sit up. I could of stood up myself but something about his gesture made me feel........ well like I could trust him somehow.

I gave him my hand and let him help me up. We walk outside together with Braiden and Natilie behind us. "I felt like we haven't actually talked during diner" Bruce says. I look at him and smile. "Yeah" was all I replied.

"Maybe tomorrow we could, I don't know, get together?" Bruce asks rather shyly. I couldn't believe it. Bruce Wayne, the millionaire maybe billionaire playboy, Shy. Something about this , again, made me trust him. I stop by a cab that Braiden got for us and tell him. "Yeah that sounds like fun"

Bruce writes something on a piece of paper and give it to me. He smiles, turns, and walks away. I get into the car and look at the sheet. It says his number and below it 'Call me' with something that kind of looks like a little heart. I sigh and look out dreamily.

Braiden starts to sing behind me "Trinity and Brucey, sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G. First comes love, then comes-" Braiden stops singing due to me throwing my bag at him
