Gotham

Episode 5 - Vicki Vale

A/N: Hey Guys! Please comment as I really need to know what you think of this story!!!

"You never cease to amaze me Master Bruce" Alfred Pennyworth said, gazing a the fully furnished Bat-cave. Bruce stood beside his loyal steward feeling impressed with himself. "Yeah I know, I'm amazing! Remember my old friend Lucius Fox? He helped me out quite a lot too! And of course nothing would be complete without you Alfred" Bruce sarcastically said. Alfred chuckled in response and took the elevator back to the mansion.

"Is it weird that I'm jealous of myself? Then again who wouldn't want to be like me!".

Barbara Gordon slouched in her kitchen chair trying to push her feelings for Bruce out of her head. Everyone in the school had someone to express their feelings to. Edward had Oswald, Waylon had Bane, Victor had Jonathan and Harvey had Bruce, but who did Barbara have? No one. All the girls had already formed a clique consisting of Selina Kyle, Pamela Isley and Harley Quinn, and Barbara was just left on her own. Of course she knew she had Bruce and Harvey but they were boys, she couldn't speak to them, especially if it was about one of the boys!

"Eat up please Barbara, your going to be late for school!" Barbara's father; Commissioner Jim Gordon snapped.

"Yes daddy" Babs replied.

The only thing Barbara knew for certain was that she could not hold her feelings for Bruce hidden, that kiss they shared was the best moment in her life.

Another day at school. Another day at Gotham High. "Yo Eddy! Do you want to hang out in the Iceberg?" Oswald Cobblepot asked. Edward Nygma creased his face in response.

"The what?"

"You know our new club! In that empty office that Strange said we could use?". Now it made sense. A couple of weeks ago Oswald has changed one of the empty school offices into his official hang out area, he had named it The Iceberg Club! Only official members could enter including; Eddy, Victor Fries and Nora, Jonathan Crane and Barbara Gordon.

Oswald and Eddy quickly spotted Bane and Waylon Jones and immediately headed into the Iceberg, avoiding their daily punishments. "Poor children, look at them thinking they can hurt whoever they want, what a bunch of dogs! Selina Kyle said as she and Pamela Isley sauntered through the hallways. "Too be honest I'm still thinking about how I lost the Class President vote against Harvey Dent!" Pamela responded. Selina nodded in return.

Suddenly as Bruce, Barbara and Harvey entered the hall the doors to Gotham High opened and a new student waltzed in; Vicki Vale. "Well who have we here toots?" Jay asked grinning at the girl.

"Mister J! What are you doing?!" Harley shrieked in response, clearly angry with her boyfriend.

Bruce, Jay, Harvey, Bane and Waylon drooled at the sight of the new student. "Damn those are sexy legs!" Bane yelled as he whistled towards the young blonde. Suddenly the bell wailed for next lesson and everyone began piling out of the hallways. "Can somebody help me?!" Vicki asked, hoping not to be late to her next lesson.

Bruce quickly abandoned Harvey and Barbara and made his way over to Vicki. "I'll help you, my name's Bruce, Bruce Wayne". Vicki stared in absolute shock.

"Bruce Wayne? As in the millionaire?" Vicki asked.

"Actually it's billionaire but yeah that's me" Bruce said, Impressing the blonde. Vicki bit her lip seductively and placed her bag on her shoulder. "Maybe you can take me out for dinner some time then" She said. Bruce grinned in return.

Barbara Gordon watched from afar and suddenly burst out in tears, seeing her best friend drooling over the new student. Little did Barbara know but Jonathan Crane was also watching and the fact that Bruce was flirting with Vicki meant that he had a chance with Barbara. "Excellent!" He muttered.
