Chapter 5

Jack's/Joker's Pov

"Tell them that he isn't here and that they're mistaken" Bruce said as he turned to Alfred,

"As a matter of fact, I'll go with you." I looked at Bruce, scared because what if they found out that he was Batman or what if they didn't like our relationship. I really didn't like this. My thoughts were interrupted by Batgirl. "I'll go with you." she said, placing her hand on Bruce's shoulder

"Thanks Barbara but I think only I should go. Also I think they'd find it weird if the daughter of the commissioner was in my house" he chuckled a bit as he brushed her hand off his shoulder turning to me. "I'll be right back Jack, Barbara will keep you company." He says turning to Barbara, giving her a small nod. She rolls her eyes as Bruce and Alfred walk to the elevator. Barbra turns to me as I stare at the elevator going up.

"I never listen to him! Yeah I understand he's like my "boss" or whatever but I never listen to him so I say if you're up to it, Let's go upstairs and hide behind something and spy on them!" I turn to her with worry etched on my pale face. Bruce told me to stay here and I feel safe down here because I'm sure it's hidden away from the public so they will never be able to find me and what if Damian sees me. Me and him aren't exactly friends, I'm pretty sure he hates my g- 

"Hello??" Barbara waves a hand over my face making me flinch back to reality "Batgirl" I start but was rudely interrupted. "Barbara!" She says with excitement, "Barbara, I think we should stay down here. Bruce told us not to move and while yes I want to know what they're saying and talking about I don't want them to find me" I say, worry laced in my words.

"Well I'm gonna go! You can sit down here and be all sad and scared but I'm going to find out what they're saying!" She said marching towards the elevator, She turned back to me as if trying to convince me one more time before entering. With a quiet sigh, I follow.

Bruce's/Batman's Pov

We got upstairs and I led the way to the front door. I heard shouting and knocking, god I always hated paparazzi. They were always super annoying. I swing open the door and everyone starts talking pictures, shoving microphones in my face as they ask questions about Jack. I tried to shake the microphones away and cover my face from the cameras and flashing lights.
"Mr. Wayne! Is The Joker staying with you?" "Bruce Wayne! Over Here! Are the rumors true?!"
Alfred tries to tell them that I won't make a comment today but I quickly shush him.

"Everyone! If you want a fucking comment then stop being so god damn loud!" I shout as loud as I can

Some people quieted down and others continue talking

I sigh deeply as I look around at the amount of people standing outside my door, "Good afternoon everyone. My name is Bruce Wayne and it has come to my attention that people started a rumor that I have Jack Napier, Better known as the Joker, with me. I would just like to say that

I have never had connections with The Joker

I don't understand how that rumor came to be

But I know one thing is certain

He isn't living with me. Have a good day." I quickly sign off and quickly start heading back inside. I heard them start to ask more questions as I'm walking away, Some people leaving, disappointed they didn't get any information. As I wave a small goodbye as I close the door I hear a vase breaking..
