Batman/Catwoman Issue #0

BIRTHDAY SPECIAL!!

Supposed to be published May 30th. This oneshot has NOTHING to do with the actual plot. Same universe, after the main plot finished. When Selina and Bruce are together, and know each others identities. This is just a casual, lighthearted slice of life au.  (It was my birthday 05/30)

Enjoy!

    There was a certain tone that would ring in Selina's voice every time she wanted something. It wasn't a pleading tone, but it wasn't a declarative tone either. To Bruce, it was the tone of cunningness. 

    This morning, Selina walked through the door with her midnight black hair swaying freely at her side. She skipped over to her boyfriend, batting her eyes. "You know what today is??"

    Her smile only widened as Bruce's uncomfortableness grew. After last night's typical crime fighting shit, Bruce wanted to get up in the morning as late as his eyes would allow him. 8:30 in the morning was not the time he had in mind. 

    He wore plaid pajama pants and a black tank undershirt, his eyes were mildly glazed with sleepiness and his bed hair was yet to be suppressed. Typical for any 27 year old, but not Bruce Wayne. And he definitely didn't like to see her dressed up for the day while he still hadn't brushed his teeth. 

    "I told you not to come home if the door was locked." He gently pushed past her, pressing a button that calls Alfred up to his room. 

    "You're house is always locked." Selina followed him to his bathroom, standing at the entrance as he started to wash his face. "Now guess. It's a very special day today. Your life wouldn't be as perfect as it is if not for today." She grinned matter of factly. 

    The house is supposed to always be locked. Bruce didn't really want her to come over for fear that he might see him not as composed as he always is- this morning is a good example. 

    "Yes, Selina, I know it's your birthday today..."

    "What are you going to do??" She watched him dry off his face and wet his brush.

    "Can you stop watching me get ready?" He rolled his eyes childishly and went over to close the bathroom door. They can just talk through the door until he was done. 

    Selina shrugged, though her impatience was getting the best of her. "What did you plan, dumbass?? I took off the entire day for today."

    "Who says I planned something?" his muffled voice poked out through the other side of the door. Of course, this wasn't the case, Bruce has known it was going to be her birthday for the past 2 months, though it was hard for him to think of what she wanted to receive or do today.  

    He hoped what he had planned was enough. 

    When he walked out, he was no longer the tired college student, but the refreshed businessman Selina had always knew. A shame, she thought. She barely saw him as anything but the latter. She would never admit but one of the main reasons why she barges in his mansion at random times of the day is to catch him when he's not what he puts himself as. It makes her relate and love him more. 

    Though she wouldn't miss this side of him either. Bringing her hand to his cheek, she pressed her glossed lips firmly on his, smiling into their kiss. 

    She'd hold herself there forever, though out of pure embarrassment, Bruce has to pull back before Selina could hear his heartbeat scream for more. "Seducing me won't make me give you anything more." 

    "So you have planned my birthday!" Bruce loved it when her eyes sparkled, he mimicked her smiled to the best of his ability.

    "You can say that. What are you turning? I get you confused with Ms. Ralph sometimes..." He instantly regretted the statement as soon as he spoke. When did he get so careless? Opening his mouth to apologize, Bruce stepped closer to her only to be greeted with giggles.
