A/N: Hey everyone! K here, and I've decided to try something out of my comfort zone. This is an AU on-going series, and I'm pretty excited about it. I'll try to update frequently as I can. (Cause you know life happens) To clear up some confusion: This story is going to based from Bruce Wayne's POV, he's sixteen and has taken over Wayne Enterprises. I hope you all like it!
I do not own any of the characters, all credit goes to the Gotham writers.
Those eyes. Green and bright, an emerald sea of mystery and desire. She's there, then she's not, leaving me slightly mourning every time she disappears. Those eyes leave an imprint in my mind, a longing in my heart. If she would had only stayed in Gotham, with me. All of those memories, the feelings, those glowing green eyes haunting my dreams more so than my parents. She was my soulmate, and I was selfish. I thought we were always going to be together, to be friends, maybe even more. It's my fault.
-Five years before-
"What do you mean you're leaving for good?" I stand up from my chair, finding my hands shaking and my heart pounding from the news. The cat is standing by the window, in all of her glory. Her wild hair is being blown by the wind, she's crossed her arms, and refuses to look at me.
"I mean I'm leaving for good kid.." She shuffles her feet, staring at the floor, "This city is boring, I need to move on,"
I look at her dumbfounded, anger rising through my body. I clench my fists, wanting to scream at her. I force my anger down, and talk in the calmest voice I could manage.
"So I'm boring? You need to move on from me?"
I don't want you to leave, I need you to stay, I need you.
"Oh right because that's exactly what I said,"
Why are you hurting me like this?
"But that's what you're implying!" She wouldn't look at me, "Is there someone after you? I can protect you! Anything!"
"There's no one after me B, and you can't protect me. You wouldn't understand,"
I would do anything for you
"I wouldn't understand?" I scoffed," Selina, you're seventeen, I've known you since we were kids! I know everything there is to know about you!"
"I'm not arguing with you B, I'm leaving and that's final." Anger rising fast, I couldn't control it, I screamed,
"Leave then! Throw everything we have, everything we've been through away! It's not like I love you or anything! Not like I've spent the last two years trying to win you over, getting you gifts and helping you with all of your 'debts'."
I love you, please don't leave me.
"See this is exactly what I thought would happen B! You've been a huge dick and controlive ever since you took over that stupid business!" She starts waving her arms, mocking me, and making my anger turn to rage, "Don't do this Cat! Don't go there Cat! I'll protect you Cat! I don't need you!" She scoffed, and turned to go out the window.
"Goodbye Bruce, I'd say it was nice knowing you, but you're not the kid I fell for."
She left.
She actually left me.
What have I done?
I stood silently, processing what had just happened. My hands are shaking, and I'm on the verge of tears. She came to say goodbye, and I screamed at drove her out even more so.
I fell into my chair, my heart heavy. It was like the room was spinning, I can't see anything. I felt something wet on my face and wiped what I realized were tears. I stared at the salt water on my hand as it ran down my wrist and absorbed itself into my sleeve.
I love you, yet I drove you away.
I'm so sorry.
