Two Times Batman asked for Supes and one Time Bruce asked for banana muffins

By janahjean b

When Superman offered Batman a sure way of calling for HIS assistance without embarassing the proud Bat, well, it is partly done half in jest. Hence, the codename. Clark didn't know the impact of such a thoughtless nickname until he almost came too late to save his friend.

Clark was looking at his face studying it carefully wondering if he could get away sporting a five o clock shadow, half hoping he could. He picked up his kryptonite laced shaver and started the careful task of becoming clean shaven again. Since he doesn't need much sleep anyway he was already up by 3 and this is how his typical morning start.

"B-banana...muffin…"

It was a whisper out of thin air. It sounds like someone have been saying it for a while now.

Clark dropped his old fashioned blade into the sink and he knows Bruce, nay, Batman will really kill him if this is the last words that spilled from his lips.

He arrive in Gotham bay looking stricken as the batmobile went away with the three sons of Batman looking on as it vanish in the corner.

"Why hello there *banana muffin* man!" Red Hood said with fake cheer after he turn to look at Superman.

Clark gulped. He know he was in big trouble especially since Red Hood didn't do fake cheer unless he is real real pissed. He landed anyway.

He would do it all over again though, that is being beaten up especially when he find out later that Batman was resuscitated twice that night. The three bats except the eldest had told him what happen at the bay between kicks and punches thrown at him that almost lead to Batman's fall. Nightwing on his part had driven their father back to the batcave with the batmobile.

The second time it happen. Well, that was when Superman witness in awe as the almost godlike Batman just keep on walking and passed by him battered but still standing as he made his way towards his batmobile.

Superman scanned the older hero and wince at several fracture and internal bleeding and bruises on his person and yet the man just keep on walking on.

"Banana m-uffin...ba..nana.." The batman was spitting out the code under harsh breathing before he painfully get on the batmobile and drove off. Eyes glazed in shock. Training took over on autopilot mode.

Filled with shame, Clark began to clear up the mess left by Batman's wake. He almost wish the kids beat him again.

He promised himself that the third time will be a charm. In fact, Superman trained his ears to flag him as soon as Bruce mention even just three syllables of the codeword and so…

"Banana-"

Bruce blinked and Clark blinked back both of them surprised to be facing each other up close in personal.

Clark stumble back hastily before Bruce could say something hurtful like "get out of my face." He blinked again, surprise that it was daytime and in fact he is at the kitchen of the manor.

"Wha-" he return his gaze back at Bruce

Bruce stuffed his mouth with a banana muffin. The guy smirked at him before he return to address his kids.

"Settle down, guys." He ordered and started to hand them a plateful of fresh banana muffins straight from the oven.

Clark remove the muffin from his mouth and look at it with blurry, wet eyes.

The kids pretended out of kindness in not hearing or seeing him crying as Alfred with a heartwarming smile coax him to sit down on the extra chair at their table. He is back at the fam's good side.

Clark thinks forgiveness taste like banana muffins from that day onwards.
