A Month Later... Ella's P.O.V.

I walked home and plopped onto my bed, sighing. Another job interview failed, but Bruce has been able to cheer me up for all of my failures. We've been on more dates, and they've always made me feel a lot better. He invited me to a charity event tonight, so I decided to get ready, knowing Alfred was going to pick me up in an hour. I put on a sleek pink dress, and a beautiful blue topaz necklace Bruce gave me two weeks ago.

It was the first out of a few gifts he'd gotten me so far, even though I told him it wasn't necessary. Alfred then told me that giving gifts was one of Bruce's ways of showing affection, so I decided not to argue with Bruce anymore. It really was sweet of him. 

I heard a knock on my door and I grabbed my purse. I looked through my peephole to see it was Alfred. I walked out and smiled at him, and he returned it with one of his own.

"How did your interview go, Miss Allen?" Alfred asked.

"I didn't get the job," I said sadly. "But please don't tell Bruce, I don't want him to worry."

"Your secret is safe with me," he stated, pretending to zip his lips. I giggled. 

"Thanks, Alfred, you're the best." 


At the Wayne Manor... Bruce's P.O.V.

I smiled and talked to my guests, waiting for Ella to come. I couldn't help but feel a little nervous to have her here with me in front of all these people. This would be the first time she'd be my date at a public event like this, there was a lot of pressure on both me and her. Then again, people had already found out I was seeing someone. Our first date had been in public, after all. It was hard to hide anything in my life, outside of being the Batman. 

I looked at the door to see Ella come in and my eyes widened. She looked breathtaking, and my heart fluttered at the sight of her wearing some of the jewelry I had bought her. I walked over to her and she smiled at me.

"Hey," she said shyly.

I smiled and took her hand, kissing it softly.

"You look beautiful tonight," I said.
