Little Miss Gotham

Chapter Sixteen

( I apologize for my lateness and the quality of this chapter. Someone very close to me just left for college and I went with that person to their extremely early flight. So I'm very tired and a little upset and writers block hit. But I'll try my best for you guys because you are the most supportive readers I've ever had! )

"You're jealous." I laughed, sitting on the couch in Joker's hotel room. I heard his footsteps behind me and I knew something was coming. But I didn't expect his hand to caress the side of my face.
"I'm not jealous." Joker said, his hand then gently patting my cheek. But his definition of gentle wasn't my definition. In an instant, my head flicked back when he grabbed my hair and I was looking at his blue, rage filled eyes. Well, that's how they always looked. "I'm just sayin', I don't wanna hear that Mr.Perfect is flirting with my girl again."

"I'm not going to be rude." I shrugged, wincing slightly as he pulled at my hair. "No one knows of my relationship with you so it's not like I have an excuse as to why I can't be tied up with him. Plus, Batsy thinks I'm at the movies with him right now." The Joker frustratingly released my hair and exhaled.

"What's this plan that you've been babbling about?" he asked, drinking some type of alcohol from a small glass.
"Sorry, you were busy being jealous." I giggled. Joker didn't look amused and instead, he frowned at me. "Anyway, my dad has a meeting tomorrow in D.C. with a few government officials who oversee Belle Reve and those criminals so I'll get more specifics after that. But the plan is to have everybody out before Christmas. So I'm assuming that Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Killer Croc, and all those other fancy names are gonna be sent into the city within the next week. They're supposed to reel the criminals together for some big plan but it's a trap for us. They're on a strict time limit so they only have a couple weeks" I explained.

"How are they gonna reel us in?" Joker laughed, crossing his arms across his chest. "The second anyone tries tossing me back into Arkham Asylum I'll blow their heads off!"

"They're going to be watched. All five or six them. I don't know but I watched the guys at Arkham building a prototype chip to inject into them. With the press of a button, it'll explode if they don't carry out the plan." I argued.

Joker shrugged. "Not my problem. They can explode for all I care." As soon as he finished his glass, I watched him throw it across the room. I jumped when the glass shattered but it looked like a light bulb went off in his head.
"I got a plan." he said.
"I'm listening."

Joker walked back over towards me with a very attractive grin on his red lips.
"You and I are the only one's who know of this, right?"
I nodded as he took my hand and pulled me in.
"Let's go along with it. Let everyone get reeled in. But the second your daddy tries to pull us out of the water, we'll be swimming away and let the rest of them get slaughtered." I couldn't help but laugh at his plan.

"I like it." I nodded.

"It's you and me, baby." Joker grinned, his toned, pale and tattooed arm wrapping around my entire waist and pulling me closer. My heart fluttered and I stood on my toes to kiss those blood red lips.

"Tomorrow, get some more information on your daddy's plan and Thanksgiving morning, I'll have a nice big surprise for you." Joker unwrapped me from his arms and I almost wish I could have stayed there for a while. "Come dressed and ready to go."

I turned around and grabbed my purse.
"Don't worry. I'll be sure to look my best." I grabbed my phone and checked the time. It was still early in the afternoon and Batsy wasn't expecting me to text him for at least another hour. "Got any plans anytime soon?" I asked. Joker was sitting on the couch and I moved so that I could sit on his lap and face him. Joker's hands grabbed my hips and I smiled.
"Feel like spending a night out on the town?" he asked.
