I truly hope you like this chapter!
"So why did they contact you…?" Leonora asks.
"Guess you have no one here to care for you," Bruce responds. Despite her not liking his words, she thought that deep down, he was probably right.
"Guess so Wayne, you didn't have to pick me up if you didn't want to" Leonora says in a cold tone.
"I wanted to, that's why I'm here" Bruce responds in a firm tone.
"I sometimes don't know why you bother…" Leonora mutters, looking directly into his eyes. Does he really care for me?
"Don't think about it Leonora. Could you get up…?" Bruce asks.
"I feel drowsy…" She responds, fluttering her eyes.
"I'll take you to my place for now, if you don't mind of course," Bruce says.
"Sure Wayne… after all the least thing I want to do is stay here" With that said, Bruce picks her up (bridal style) and walks out of Gotham's police station.
As the citizens of Gotham walked out of the refuge center, they commented on the caped crusader…
"I guess the batman is a wonderful being…" An elder woman says, looking up at the sky.
"He saved us from the Joker… because of him, we are safe," A man next to her said.
"Yeah no thanks to our grand police force…" A teenage boy says, rolling his eyes in annoyance.
"They did help the Batman… after all, he's just one being" An elderly man responds.
"A weird being if you ask me…" A woman comments with distrust.
"A weird but noble being… there aren't many people with his bravery and good heart" A young man comments.
"I have to agree to that… so could we… trust him?"
"We have a hero we don't deserve…" Another young man comments,
"Who asked him to save us anyway…?" a young woman snaps.
"What about what happened years ago…? Ya know the whole Harvey Dent thing?" An elder man asks.
"After what he just did… I doubt he had anything to do with it" A young teenage girl commented.
"I don't care… I just want to go home, I think our children have had enough of all this craziness don't you think!" A woman yells.
"Batman's awesome…!" Kids yell.
Some of the citizens changed their perspective on him, others still viewed him as a villain, and others only cared about their safety.
Days later, At Arkham Asylum,
"Time for morning recess kiddies…!" A nurse yells. It had been days since he returned to Arkham, but she had not seen him… today was to be the day.
Harley quickly rushes to the back of Arkham Asylum, where the kept the most dangerous patients. Number 519, thankfully, she was able to get a copy of the key to the Joker's cell.
Slowly, she opens the door… and there he was, tied up and defenseless.
"Puddin'…!" The Joker did not bother to look at her; instead, he stared blankly at the wall in front of him.
"Puddin' I'm so happy to see ya!" Harley squeals. This time, the Joker turns his gaze towards her.
"Really… I thought you'd be mad at me," He says in a kid like tone.
"I was at first puddin' but I could never be mad at you for long! I love you Mister J" Harley gushes. She runs up to him and hugs him. Why does she have to do that… it is so stupid! The Joker thinks to himself. He rolled his eyes and looked at Harley's arms that were wrapped around him. Might as well and play with her some more J,
"I was on my way to get you out of this place, but Batman stopped me" The Joker lies.
"I figured that's what happened puddin', but don't you worry, we'll find a way out of this place. Just you wait…!" Harley says with a smile on her face. The Joker could not help but smile as well… She was so easy to manipulate… too easy. Hm… will doll face really leave me here? She is so cruel…! That is why she thrills me!
"Good morning Bruce…" Leonora says as she walks into the kitchen.
"Morning" He responds in a distant tone. It had been days, days that the same thoughts roamed inside his mind, yet he did not have the guts to confront her about anything.
"What's wrong Bruce…?" She asks. Leonora pulls a chair and sits next to him at the dinning table.
"Why do you say that Leonora…?" He asks, keeping his gaze on his coffee mug.
"Wayne… you're not the same, and you don't have to be an Einstein to see that something's wrong with you. Look, if you don't like my stay here, then you might as well tell me" As soon as she said this, Bruce quickly turns his gaze towards her. How could she think that…? Her company was all he wanted… her love.
"Don't say such things Leonora…" He says in a cold tone.
"I've been thinking all morning, and perhaps its time that we'd part right?" Leonora struggles to say. Why am I struggling to say this to him? Leonora thinks to herself.
"Part… what are you talking about?" Bruce says, confused by her words.
"I think we've grown apart… there's a lot of things you don't know about me Wayne, and I don't want you to know them" She says, lightly brushing his cheek with the palm of her hand.
"Why don't you tell me…?" He asks.
"I think it's better of that way Wayne… I don't like the way I seem to care for ya, so it's better if I stop seeing ya" She says in a warm yet firm tone.
"I feel like I understand you in some way… Leonora it doesn't have to be this way" I should leave it this way… yet it kills me. Bruce thinks to himself.
"Wayne you almost make me feel human…" Leonora says, pulling him into a kiss. Do you really care for me Leonora…?
You are probably the only good thing that has ever happened to me Wayne… yet I need Jack in my life. The idiot thrills me...!
