Gotham

Episode 3 - The Love

Bruce Wayne entered Gotham High gates with a gleaming smile spread across his face. Multiple students of Gotham High were wearing grey T-shirts with Bruce's bat themed insignia on them. nearly the whole school had heard about the event of Jay's robbery and how he was stopped by a bat themed vigilante. No one knew the identity of the vigilante nor where he came from, but by the looks of things he was a friend not a foe.

All the happiness and parading suddenly came to a halt when Jay entered the hallway. With Harley Quinn and Waylon Jones by his side Jay strolled passed the schools lockers and gave each individual student a frightful stare followed by maniacal smirk. Harley who was parading around in a red and white dungaree spotted Barbara Gordon at the end of the hallway. "Puddin' that Gordon girl who got you in trouble is lurking around" Harley said pointing her crimson polished finger nail at the traitor.

"Well let's go pay her a visit" Jay cackled. The three bullies approached the defenceless redhead and cornered her into someone's locker. "Well hello there Barbara. What a pleasant surprise" Jay said, his sickly pale skin made Barbara's stomach churn, a feeling she didn't get very often.

"Jay please. I don't want to get into a fight" Barbara explained.

"It's only a fight if both people have a chance of winning" Jay responded.

Barbara cracked under the anxiety. The young redhead felt the sweat pour down her face as Jay edged closer and closer towards her. "Hey! Leave her alone!" Bruce Wayne said, trying to defend his friend.

"Ooh. Got the rich boy protecting you Barbara, cute" Jay said. The sickly looking joker walked away with Waylon and Harley by his side. The students stayed silent until Jay was out of sight. "Are you ok?" Bruce asked politely.

"Yeah I think so. Can I tell you something?" Barbara responded whilst making her way down the corridor with Bruce. "Of course. You can tell me anything. You know that" Bruce said, suddenly he felt himself feeling drawn towards Barbara, his feelings for her suddenly started to show and he felt himself nearing closer to Barbara's face. The struggle of emotions suddenly started to catch up with Barbara's mind. Without hesitating Barbara leaned in to Bruce's face and kissed him. "I'm sorr-" Barbara was cut off by Bruce's response which was his turn for a kiss.

Barbara and Bruce stopped for breath and smiled. "That was nice" Barbara said.

"I know" Bruce replied. The pair couldn't think of anything else to say other than that.
