All In

Seven

Tiny raindrops started to touch the top of my head, so I leaned back to check it out. Yep. It was raining, of course. After several panic attacks, I put on a black dress, my puffy black coat, and some I am not a whore makeup, which is a must on your first date (if this is even a date). I kicked myself out of the apartment to wait for him.

It was indescribably hard for me, but on the other hand, very exciting. The last time I had a date was two months ago, with one of Xavier's friends. We went out twice, but I didn't feel it, so I cut it off. It was nothing to compare to this. From the moment my eyes met the Jokers, I knew I was screwed. I don't know how about boys, but I guess we girls just know this kind of stuff from the very beginning, and we are or blessed with a beautiful relationship or totally fucked up with broken hearts. It is what it is.

I stood there, with my black boots, covering my head with my coat, when I spotted strong lights in the distance.

Oh god, here we go.

I didn't even know which car he was driving, but then I remembered. I saw this one flying over a city at night. This spectacular purple Lamborghini. Some people would kill for this car. Some of them did.

He pulled over right next to my feet, so I don't have to walk much, I guess. I smiled naively about his sense of detail, and then my eyes met his.

Finally.

I had been waiting for this holy moment since I lost him that night in the club. All my nerves calmed down immediately, and I smiled widely. He got out of the car and headed toward me. I had to catch my breath when I saw his whole figure.

"Seems like you don't mind the rain." I couldn't help but chuckle. He took my hand and slowly pressed his lips against it. When I felt the connection, time stopped.

Literally, STOPPED. My lips parted away, and I just stood there without any words. It was so amazing, and we only met; I wondered what would happen later. My facial expressions were too noticeable, and he smiled a little bit, almost like he had heard my hidden thoughts.

"Hi." I finally pushed myself to say something. God, I am so glad I got so wasted! I think.

"Hi." He said without any following words and smiled again. Why is he looking so normal right now? I don't feel any danger coming out of his eyes or from anywhere else. He took my hand and led my way to the passenger seat. Doors opened automatically, and I gasped for breath. Wow. This is a really serious piece of a car. It's maybe still the alcohol talking from me or the momentary ecstasy from this feeling, but I never felt this way. I watched him as he walked in front of the car and sat next to me.

"Do I want to know where we are going?" I raised my eyebrow and smiled with a seductive smirk. He smiled back and touched my face with the back of his hand.

"You will see soon." Seriously at that time, I didn't care at all. I didn't care if he was taking me to the moon or hell. I nodded softly and put on my seatbelt, which was the reason why he laughed a little bit. I guess caution on the road is not popular in Gotham City.

We rode thru the night city like invisible ghosts. All that time, I watched how he drove the car without hesitation like he knew these roads too well. The tension between us was almost unbearable. So many scenarios about what we could do right now just climbed into my brain, and no matter what I did, I couldn't push them out. That happens when you are in a closed space with someone you are attracted to.

"How are you feeling?" he said casually without breaking eye contact with the road. I was caught off guard, so I straightened myself and focused my sight in front of me. Why Am I starring?
