A YEAR LATER ~
Alfred smiled at Bruce and Alyssa who sat on the couch laughing and talking. His eyes lingered on Bruce the most who couldn't take his eyes off of Alyssa and had his arm thrown across the back of the couch, behind Alyssa.
"Here's your bottle of wine, Master Bruce." Alfred says entering the room and sitting the wine on the table. "Would that be all Master Bruce? "
"Yes Alfred. You can retire for the night." Bruce says finally looking at Alfred since the first time he walked into the room.
"Very well, good night Master Bruce and Mistress Foster."
"Oh, Alfred please call me Alyssa." Alyssa corrects as Bruce pours another drink into her glass.
"As you wish." Alfred nods and bids the two another goodnight.
"Bruce are trying to get me drunk, to share my deepest and darkest secrets." Alyssa grins bringing the cup to her lips.
"No, no. You already told me everything about you." Bruce cringed at the remembrance of Alyssa telling him about the first time her and the Joker made love.
"That's what you think." Alyssa smirks and then giggles at the hard face Bruce gave her. "Kidding." Alyssa puts her glass on the table and then leans back into Bruce and puts her head on his shoulder.

Left. Right. Right. Duck.
Finally Bruce lays a hit on Alyssa. Pushing her shoulder, Alyssa stumbles back before regaining posture.
"Be on guard-"
"at all times." Alyssa finishes off his sentence. Within the year of Alyssa opening up, Alyssa decided to take up self defense.
She improved a little.
"Then follow that number one rule."
Bruce comes back at Alyssa, but she side steps him and quickly turns her body to hit him in the head, but not too hard.
"You're getting better." Bruce comments as he ducks and swings his leg under Alyssa, only for her to jump out of the way. Bruce quickly gets up and aims his fist at her but Alyssa was quick to bend and flip back.
"Training over." Bruce says but Alyssa knew that didn't mean training was over. Training was never over until one of them was on the floor and it was always her that ended on the floor.
"Is it now Bruce Wayne." Alyssa dragged his name out. "I'm hardly even tried." She pouted as she rested hers hand on Bruce's chest and using her other hand to cup his cheek.
Bruce stared into Alyssa's eyes feeling more drawn to her then he already was. His heart sped up as their faces got closer.
Alyssa's aim was to pin him down, but she got so caught up in her feelings for Bruce. The two both met and shared a kiss. The slow and intimate kiss soon turned into a hot and smacking kiss.
Poor Alfred could hear the two just from across the room.
"I got you." Alyssa sung as she managed to pin Bruce to the mat.
"But I have you." Bruce says bring Alyssa back down to kiss.
