Make It Wayne

Day 13:Dance with me

Barbra P.O.V.

"Stronger frame, Barbra."

"This is piontless..."I dropped my hands from his and folded my arms,"I'm just very bad at dancing."

Bruce sighed,"You are just holding back. Scared maybe..."

"Scared of what exactly?"I asked, hands on my hips.

He brushed his knuckles on my cheeks and I could feel the frustration leaving my body."The dance steps are simple and you have no problem with remembering them. It's doing them. The main key is to let go like you used to do in your gymnastics."

I returned his warm smile but thoughts started to play through my mind.

What if I let go and everyone figures out that I am Batgirl?

I sighed and nodded my head but just as we were about to continue our practising, Alfred walked in.

"Sir, your presence is requested at the Wayne Tower."

Bruce nodded and shrugged on his suit jacket,"I'll return as soon as I can. Alfred will continue teatching you." He left and I felt like an utter idiot while standing there.

"Miss Gordon, I advise you to test the bars before we continue your lessons. It wilk help you greatly." Alfred smiled and left to prepare lunch.

My heart skipped a beat. I have been avioding the bars for so long. I didn't think that agreeing to accompaning Bruce to the charity event would lead to this.

Don't be silly, Babs! It's only bars... no one will find out your secret...

I marched myself to the gym room and halted a few feet away from the spring platform. Inhaling deeply, I took of with a run. I flipped and grabbed onto the bar, lifting myself in a one-handed handstand, splitting in the air. Swinging and flipping to the other bar effortlessly. I was doing all kinds of tricks, lost in the excitement.

Bruce P.O.V.

I returned to the mannor two hours before the event started. Alfred immediatly told me that Barbra was in the gym room practising on the bars.

I handed him the shopping bags that contained Barbra's dress and walked to the gym. On the furthest wall was her painting far from finished but what caught my eye was Barbra, who wasn't on the bars but on the sircle. She was holding her body up with ine hand while splitting in the air. It was something I often saw Dick do since that sircke is originally for acrobats.

(Hehe acrobats...)

I knew then that tonights performance was going to be perfect.

After we had walked through everything again, I handed her the shopping bag. I was currently waiting infront of her door, tapping my foot and glancing at my watch every five seconds.

Tonight's charity event was thrown by one of Gotham's wealthiest Dance Centre owner. I was to peruade him to let Wayne Interprise invest into his company earning 40% of their income. For this to succeed I needed Barbra's assistance.
