She walked over towards the bat-mobile and smiled when she heard Bruce's last statement. Score one for Barbara. "Remind me to prod you afterwards about the rest of that statement."
"Certainly." He said curtly, swallowing with difficulty. He climbed into the bat-mobile and began the start up procedures. It took a little while to get the engines turned over and warmed up. She sat next to him and observed as his hands moved over the control panels. Batman tried desperately to control Bruce Wayne and his famous wandering eyes. He found that he was losing the battle steadily. He found his eyes moving over her legs and even appreciating her hands hidden beneath the gloves of her uniform.
She got the feeling she was being watched as she looked out the window but she didn't need to turn her head to know who was looking. Score two for Barbara. The new uniform had some new perks after all.
He cleared his throat to get her attention again. As she turned her head he smiled and indicated that she should push the throttle lever forward. "If you don't mind we need some thrust to get this thing going." He didn't wait for her reaction and turned his head forward.
She pushes the lever. "You'd know about using some thrust, wouldn't you?" she chuckled
He reached out and place a gloved hand on her hand. "And what is that supposed to mean? Are you feeling a little more cocky than usual? You know your confirmation as a full member rests on my evaluation of your performance today. Comments like that could bring you trouble of a sort you do not anticipate." He remained stoic in his outward appearance, but was smiling inwardly.
"Cockiness I learned from the best Batman." she winked. "But that was a joke in reference to Bruce Wayne. Relax sometimes."
"Shall we?" He said nodding toward the exit to the cave. She smiled and pushed the throttle forward. As they left the bat-cave a signal flashed across the computer screen. He looked down momentarily and noted that it was a flash message from Commissioner Gordon. "Maybe you should take this one." He said to her indicating the computer screen.
"That's cruel Batman. He still doesn't know that I was Batgirl." She sighs and nods. "Alright." She pressed the button to answer it. "Yes Commissioner Gordon?"
"Cruel? Maybe, but you will have to answer calls like these when you are on your own." He smiles slightly enjoying the moment. Although listening intently to the call, he allowed her to deal with the matter as he drove on into the night.
She listened as the Commissioner informed them how the Penguin had sent a note to the police stating that he was going for one of the most prized paintings in the Gotham museum of Art. "We'll be right on it Commissioner." she disconnected the call. "You heard him Batman, Gotham Museum of Art."
