Batman's Problem

Eventually

Chapter 3

Bruce POV

He starts walking away and I walk to my motorcycle. When I get to the garage I change and walk upstairs. "I thought you'd be home earlier than this (m/r)?" (m/r) keeps his head down and then looks up at me smiling.

"Sorry hun I had to do something after dealing with that guy. He apparently wanted to use me to get money from you. But I got him to his boss and we won't be dealing with him." (m/r) smiles at me and walks upstairs, he was limping a little.

    I can't wait til Alfred gets back then he can deal with him. Then I hear him walking downstairs going to the kitchen. He sighs as he looks through the kitchen grabbing a small bowl and strawberries. "I'll buy groceries tomorrow or today okay?"

    Then he leaves to his room after washing the strawberries. I hear his door open and close, I walk to my room tired. When I get there I look through the cameras in a room. The camera caught two people taking down a gang at a bar.

    I think about who they might be considering how they took them down. After a few minutes I go downstairs to have a coffee. When I went downstairs I made coffee and sat on the chair thinking. "Why are you up so early?" "Why are you up?"

    "I'm bored so I'm gonna get some groceries." He walks out wearing a black coat and some pants underneath. I couldn't tell what shirt he was wearing though. When he leaves I hear the door click, I walk to my room again.

    But then I get a message saying that there was a problem at a bar I was taking tabs on. I put my suit on and go to my Batmobile driving. When I got there I saw someone fighting against 8 people. They let a few come after him but brought them to the ground.

    But more kept coming to him. "DAMN IT!" They yell but I step in, fighting by their side. When we start walking away they look at the wall. "Thanks" they start walking away but then we hear beeping.

    They jump in front of me and push me to the ground as the building explodes. I stand up slowly looking around for clues to what happened. "You YOU RUINED MY CHANCE!" When I look I see that they were on their knees looking at me with anger.

(m/r) POV

    I stand up and grab his shoulders shaking him angry. "YOU JUST KILLED MY KID!!! YOU MOTHER FUCKER!!!" When I scream that I feel my eyes start to water up. But then I look at the building, he grabs my arm taking it off of his.

    Then I look at him one last time and run to buildings and through alleyways. When I don't feel anyone chasing me, I go to the grocery store. I change in the bathroom, and get the groceries. After a few minutes I start walking to the manor, I was so tired.

    Once I got home I open the door and walk to the kitchen. I take the things out and put it in the cabinets and fridge. But then I grab onto the table going to my knees, I felt sick. After a few seconds of staying in that position I felt a hand on me.

"What's wrong?" I stand up my legs wobbling a little but I walk putting things away again. "It's nothing just not feeling well is all." When I turn around I see Bruce looking at me and I stare back. "There was an explosion in Gotham, why do you have ash on your face?"

"I know who you are, were you just trying to get away. Why'd you say that you lost a-" Time stops for me as I stare into his eyes, at least I won't have to hide. But then I look to the side and start to feel myself tilting or leaning.

I feel warm arms go around me and I stop moving for a second. He sighs and picks me up making me face the floor. "Let me go!" I say a little annoyed and punching his back lightly. Bruce starts walking upstairs and I sigh as he takes me to his room.
