I know that it's been a while since I've update, but I also am writing three other stories and I know that I shouldn't because I'll over work myself, but ideas just pop in my head and I just have to write them down (I even started writing another one, but I won't post it until I finish with these). It's Christmas Break, so I'll be writing as much as possible. Oh! And for the readers to my other Joker story, I'm already writing, so remember if you have any ideas you'd live to give, please e-mail me or PM or whatever. Again thanks for the lovely review and enjoy!
Derek drove maniacally to Mario's home outside Gotham. He had all violent thoughts in mind, things to torture him with. He never trusted or liked the man, but when he messed with Diana, that had to be the biggest mistake in his life. Derek couldn't deny it any longer: He was in love with Diana Leigh. He didn't know how that happened or why, but it did. It was much stronger than what he felt for Lily and Belinda; though with Belinda it was only more of attraction to the eye.
Derek's tires squealed as he pulled on in front of the gates to Mario's mansion. A man came to window, so he lowered it down.
"Hello, may I ask who you are and why you are interested in seeing Mr. Costa," he said calmly.
Derek grabbed the man by his collar and pulled him down to his level. "Tell your fucking boss that Derek Parker, chief police of fucking investigation, is here to talk to him," he said, shoving his badge in his face. The man scrambled to the gate and opened it, running inside the mansion to talk to his boss.
"Man I can't believe how much money we got from that sale," said Mario, laughing and smelling the money in his hands.
"Yep, very good profit," said his partner, chuckling.
"Boss! Boss!" yelled one of his henchmen.
"What do you want?" he asked.
"T-There's someone here to see you," he said, out of breath.
"Who?" he asked, getting impatient.
"Me, you son of a bitch," said Derek. He took a swing and his fist connected to his jaw. Mario yelled in pain, grabbing the side of his face. "That's to teach you to respect women, you fucking bastard!" He saw his partner search for his gun, but he was faster and pointed his gun at him. "You move and I'll blast your brains!"
"You can't come here into my house and hit me. I'll call the cops on your ass," said Mario.
Derek laughed. "Aren't you forgetting that I am a cop? I swear, Mario, if you come near Diana again, I won't hesitate to kill you. You will be buried fifteen-feet underground before you know it."
Derek looked at the scene in disgust and walked out of the mansion before Mario decided to call more of his little friends.
Later that night
"I'm telling you, Bruce, forget about her," said Alex, playing pool.
Bruce sighed. "I can't, I still love her."
"What about Belinda?" he asked.
"What about her?" he said, taking a sip of his brandy.
"You know what I'm talking about. Don't think that I haven't seen the way you look at her. You're practically drooling over her. I mean I'm not saying that you weren't crazy for Lily, but this woman trapped you just like Lily did," he said, amused.
"She makes me crazy, Alex. But there isn't one second when I don't want to take her clothes off and fuck her until she yells my name."
"Wow," whistled Alex. "The same with Cynthia, except I love her. Do you love her, Bruce?"
"I don't know," he said, truthfully.
"Maybe, its best if you forget about Lily," said Alex. Bruce looked at him, wrapping his hands around Lily's engagement ring. "Didn't you say she was back in Gotham?" Bruce nodded. "Then why hasn't she seen you already?"
Bruce yanked the necklace from his neck and looked at it. He saw all his sweet moments with Lily in this ring. "You're right," he whispered. "Goodbye, Beautiful."
The next day
Lily and Cynthia giggled as they got out of the mall. They must have gone to every store and now their heels were killing them. "I will murder the person who invented heels," moaned Cynthia as she sat on one of the restaurant's tables.
"I bet it was a man," joked Lily, laughing.
"You know what I heard from Alex," said Cynthia, casually.
"What?" asked Lily.
"Bruce decided that it'll be best if he forgot about you," said Cynthia.
Lily's heart stopped. "He said that?" Cynthia nodded. "I-I guess he really didn't love me."
Cynthia slammed her hand on the table. "Are you blind or stupid, Lily? He still loves you. I know it's hard to believe it, but coming from me?"
Lily covered her face, not knowing what to believe. "I-I can't, Cynthia. I don't have the guts to tell him," she whispered.
"And yet you have the guts to walk around like you're someone else."
Lily shrugged. "Maybe I should be in show business."
"I'm serious!"
"I-I gotta go," said Lily, walking away without her bags. She couldn't think straight. She didn't know from left to right or forwards to backwards.
"LILY!"
She turned and saw that panic and horrified look on Cynthia's face. Lily heard wheels squeal and her head wiped to the side. She didn't even have the chance to scream as the vehicle hit her. All she felt was pain all over her body before losing conscious.
Bruce shifted in his chair, trying to concentrate on his meeting between the heads of the apartment of Wayne Enterprise. Something made him feel uneasy. He gave Belinda the day off today, but something inside him felt that she wasn't safe now. Like if there was a need to be beside her.
"Mr. Wayne?"
Bruce snapped his head to the side and saw the concern look on Lucius' face. "I'm sorry, what were you saying?"
"Mr. Wayne, they just informed me that Miss Rose was hit by a car and is at the hospital," said Lucius. Bruce took a few seconds to take this information in. His thoughts raced at the speed of light. He didn't even notice anything until he was in the parking lot. He got into his car and raced down to the hospital.
Bruce paced nervously as he waited for news on Belinda. Cynthia was there with Alex and Dave was there with Sarah.
"Damn it, Bruce, stop pacing. You're making me nervous," said Cynthia angrily. Bruce rolled his eyes and sat down, but he couldn't stop shaking his leg. "Do you want me to get the nurse to inject you with a calming drug?"
"Cynthia, be nice," said Alex, stroking her hair.
"I'm sure she'll be fine," said Sarah.
"He's the fucking reason why Belinda is in there," she hissed quietly so only Alex, Dave, and Sarah could hear.
Alex frowned looking at her. "What do you mean?"
Before Cynthia could speak, the doctor came outside the waiting room. "Are you Miss Rose's relatives?"
"Yes," said Bruce before the rest, rushing towards the doctor.
"Well, she's in critical condition, but I don't think the hit was as bad as it looked. So, she should be fine," said the doctor.
"W-When can we see her?" said Bruce impatiently.
"You can go see her now, but only one person at a time, but that person has to be a family member, as well. What are you the patient?" he asked.
Bruce blinked. "I-I'm her… husband," he said without thinking.
"Oh! I didn't know. Well, Mr.…?
"Wayne," finished Bruce.
"Mr. Wayne, you can go see your wife now," said the doctor going inside.
Bruce went to follow him, but was held back by Cynthia. "Why did you tell him you were her husband?"
"I don't know it just came to me," he said, shrugging.
"Just hurry up in there. I want to see her, too," she said.
Bruce nodded and went inside. Once inside, he searched for the room. He winced when he entered, seeing Belinda's pretty face with cut and bruises. It was an accident. The driver even stopped and said he couldn't stop before he hit her. He was cleared of all charges, but Belinda was still suffering.
Bruce was shaken from his thoughts when Belinda began to stir. She moaned in pain, moving her head from side to side.
"Bruce," she murmured. "Don't do this, please, I love you."
Bruce looked at her with wide eyes. She loves me? No, this woman is supposed to hate me.
"Bruce," she whimpered, "my love. I don't want no more chocolates."
Bruce shook his head not believing what he was hearing. She almost sounds like Lily. N-No, she's probably just delusional. Bruce suddenly remembered about the immigration at the airport. Lily's name was on the list, but there was no Belinda Rose. He looked back at the woman in the bed, contemplating who she really was.
Lily moaned as Bruce kissed her neck, his hand traveling up her legs and to her hip. She could feel his erection under his pants, just waiting to come out and make love to her.
"Bruce," she whispered. "I love you."
"I love you, too, Beautiful. I will never stop loving you, Lily. Never.
Lily's eyes fluttered open, breathing heavily. She could hear the heart monitor next to her. She was alone in a hospital bed. The last thing she remembered was seeing a car driving in front of her before everything went black.
"What happened," she moaned, grabbing the side of her head.
"You were hit by a car, Miss Rose."
Lily gasped and saw Batman hiding in the shadows. "W-What are you doing here? What if they catch you here?"
"They won't," he simply said. "I came here to find out who you really are?"
"What are you talking about? I'm Belinda Rose," she said, starting to get nervous.
"No, I know who you really are. You're Lilybell Adams," he rasped.
Lily gasped. "T-That's not true!"
"You came back the same day Lilybell Adams came back," he said, accusingly.
"W-Well, y-yes, that's true, but it still doesn't mean that I'm Lily," she explained. "Besides Lily was fat and I'm not."
"And if that's true, then why hasn't Lily shown up?" he asked, getting closer to her face.
Lily blinked several times feeling him so near her. "To protect herself," she whispered.
"From what?"
Lily sighed. "From heartache. Why are you so interested in Lily?" she asked after a few minutes of silence.
"Because she's part of my past," he said.
Lily huffed. "You're such a jerk to me. You weren't like this last time we were together."
"Last time you were kidnapped by the Joker and thanks to me you came out alive," he said, wanting to tease her.
"So you want me to pay you back," she said. "That's why you come back."
"No, I come back because you are the most beautiful person I have ever seen and it's becoming one of my weaknesses, just like Superman is weak to kryptonite," he said, leaving Lily breathless. He almost smiled when the heart monitor's ticking grew louder.
"Belinda? Why is this door locked?"
Lily gasped. "It's Derek!" she whispered. "If he finds you here, he'll arrest you!"
"I love it when you worry about me," he said, giving her a quick kiss in the mouth. "I promise you that next time we meet, it'll be longer than before."
Lily faced turned red as she watched him go out the window. "My dark knight," she whispered, before he jumped and before the door opened.
I doubt that I'll write before X-Mas, but if I don't, I wish every one Happy Holidays! Thanks for reading and please review!
