IT WAS HIM.

No, it wasn't.

Yes, it fucking was.

Her heart hammered in her chest, and her pulse raced as the truth unfolded in her mind like a broken, tangled string that was finally being pieced together.

His eyes ( those grey-blue eyes, the same ones that had haunted her thoughts more than once ) stared back at her, and the recognition hit like a tidal wave.

It wasn't just the eyes, though. It was also his jawline.

That sharp, angular line, the one she could pick out from anywhere, no matter how dark the room.

But there was more.

The little cut beneath his jaw — the scar she'd left him when they were chasing each other, when she had let him get too close that night.

She hadn't meant to ( not really ) but she caught him just as he was about to turn, that brief instant when time seemed to slow. She'd left a mark on him, small but unmistakable, something only she would recognize now. Even in that fleeting moment, he hadn't been a stranger to her.

As she walked through the crowd, her hand instinctively pressed against her red lips, mind still in shock. It all made sense now, she thought.

The way he had looked at her, the way he had moved, everything about him screamed familiarity.

But the truth had been hidden behind the mask of a man she had never fully known : Bruce Wayne.

Her footsteps faltered, her breath shallow, as if the weight of the revelation was too much to carry.

The scene at the entrance of City Hall, the push of the crowd, the sudden intensity of the tension between the men, it was all still fresh in her mind, but now everything had shifted. The man who had captivated her without her even realizing, the man who had kept his distance but left an indelible mark on her, was standing right in front of her the entire time.
