Chapter 4

Chapter 4

Bruce's POV

I woke up to the Joker missing from my lap I called for him and got an answer

"Don't worry he's with me!" I heard a familiar female voice call back. I immediately knew that it was Batgirl, I sighed a sigh of relief. I got up and stretched, that was a very uncomfortable sleeping position but at least the Jokes got a nap. I walked towards the computer to Batgirl showing Jokes the news "You guys are all over the news! Everyone is wondering and making up rumors! It's so exciting! I never got that kind of attention when I turned into Batgirl! So how is he in bed? Is his dick big?!" I could tell Joker was flustered so I stepped in "Alright Alright let's relax for a minute. We just started dating, plus What would your dad think if he heard you saying that to my boyfriend?" I teased. She looked at me all disappointed "You're no fun Bruce! And I'm just teasing!" She glared at me and giggled a bit. I looked at Joker again and he was covering his face. I looked at Barbara with a stern expression, "Barbara come on, He just got here and you're already being like this? I would say wait a bit until he gets comfortable." I hear the door open "Master Bruce is right. Let the fellow enjoy his tea and then you ask him all the questions you want." Alfred said with a smile on his face, Handing the Joker his tea and lemons. "And Mr Joker-" He was saying before he got cut off "Please! Just call me Jack! Jack Napier!" He said looking at Alfred, still blushing a bit. "Alright, Mr. Napier if you would like any more tea or stew please just tell Master Bruce to call me." He said slightly nodding to Jack before walking away

I looked at Jack who was now holding his cup of tea just smelling it

I looked at him in confusion, "Why are you sniffing it?" He looked at me and responded "Just making sure it isn't poisoned." I nodded slightly, I was also pretty worried that something that was given to him was going to be poisoned. I know Alfred would never do anything like that but Damian hasn't taken the news very pleasantly " I don't like tea." I looked at Jack, "You don't like tea?" I repeat. He shakes his head, He continues to speak "I'm more of a coffee type of person but I just wanted something lemon. I really like lemons! When I was a kid my mom would always make lemon pie! I remember going to the store with her and getting all the ingredients."

Jack's/Joker's POV

I look at the tea just remembering my mom. I missed her. "Anyways!" I start standing up "Who needs a mom! Overrated!" I fake laugh trying to keep myself from crying. Bruce pulls me in for a hug causing me to drop the hot tea all over him. "Bruce I-" I was quickly shushed, He pulled me in closer and I slowly hugged back, Crying a bit. "I know how you feel." Bruce said while pulling away, "I lost my mom too, Luckily Alfred was there to raise me and help me become me, and Batman" He said looking into my eyes. "Oh yeah" I start speaking "I forgot your mom was six feet under too" I chuckle and he smiles. Wait. He smiled? Did he like my joke? About his dead mom? Huh?

The doorbell rings, Bruce looks at me and then the elevator and soon Alfred comes down all panicked "Sir? I'm afraid the press has heard that Mr. Napier is at the Manor and are asking to speak with him and Bruce Wayne."
