HarleyxJoker Short Stories

Punchline

(Also spoilers of Punchline if you don't know who she is or haven't read the comics)

Before I start writing, sometimes my ideas for stories are based off comics/movies/shows whatever, I just twist them a little to flow with my idea. This one does include Punchline, and I know the way her and Harley met and so on, I've read the comics, I just had this idea so before anyone is like 'this isn't how the comics are', it's just an idea I'm writing my own way. :)) With that said, enjoy!!!

I groaned and flopped back on the bed. I was having a battle with myself.

J had distanced himself from me and was more cold then usual, never answering me at all besides grunts here and there. He was always out. Eventually I started staying with Ivy some days. I heard rumours of this new chick who thought she was better then me.

I dragged myself out of Ivy's bed and outside to my car. I jumped in and took off home. I wanted to see what he was doing.

I arrived and walked into an empty house besides a few of his men. I walked into the living room to see one watching TV.

"Hey! You! Where's J?" I asked. He glanced back at me. "Club I think, don't suggest joining him." He answered, turning back to the TV.

I huffed. "I'll do what I want thanks.." I said walking off. He chuckled. "You'll regret it!" He hollered as I went upstairs.

I rolled my eyes but had a gut feeling. Pushing away the feelings I walked over to the closet to figure out something to wear. I settled for a black and gold diamond pattern dress. It fit loosely, with tassles on the bottom and a few strings across my bare back.

I grabbed some gold heels to match and quickly went into the bathroom. I applied little makeup and just left my hair down. I looked at myself in the mirror and sighed. I didn't see Harley Quinn anymore. I saw a defeated girl. I put a small smile on and walked out the room and downstairs. The man who was on the couch watched as I walked out and shook his head.

I ignored him and drove off to the club. I walked in to dim lights, loud music, and the smell of alcohol. I walked past the poles and towards the back, where private booths were, including J's. I was trying to get through the crowd when I spotted him sitting in a booth. I started walking throught the crowd again before I stopped. There was another woman in there with him.

She was wearing a long slim black dress and heels, and had her long black hair slicked back into a ponytail. She was stood in front of J. I watched as he smiled and talked to her. He glanced over at the crowd and saw me. His smiled faded slightly and he gestured and said something to the girl and men around him. I watched as she walked out without turning towards me and soon I lost her in the crowd.

I pretended I didn't see anything and walked up to him. I stood in front of him, blocking his view from anyone else.

"Hey Puddin, thought I'd come visit you for a little." I said. I leaned over to kiss him and he jerked his head away from me. I frowned but quickly covered it with a smile. "C'mon Puddin, what's up with you?" I asked, sitting next to him and throwing a leg over his, running my hand up his arm.

"Nothing Harley, now what do you want, I'm trying to do business..." He said scowling, avoiding looking at me. I rolled my eyes.

"Does business include talking to other women. Cause I didn't think it did." I said angrily. i stood up and stood in front of him again.

He frowned and leaned his head back. "Harls, I'm telling you to leave. We can discuss this later." He said quietly.

"No I don't want to discuss this later, I want to discuss this now. Is she why you don't talk to me anymore? Who is she? Of course you're fucking around with someone else behind my back." I said angrily, getting louder by the second. I heard Joker growl and before I knew it he stood up and grabbed me by the throat.
