Harley and me (Book 1)

Chapter 9

"Well done, baby," he laughed, showing his shiney silver teeth. Harley Smiled back proudly.
"we can all be a family now," She sighed happily. I can say this was the happiest I've seen her for a while, I know how much he means to her, I just wish he wouldn't treat her like he does. I wanted to ask Joker something, I knew he would be mad and go off on one if I called him Joker or Mr J, but I cringe when I think about calling him dad. I plucked up the courage and asked him anyway.
"Daddy," I lisp
"Yes, pumpkin?" he says, acting sarcastically shocked. Harley frowned. He calls her pumpkin.
"I was wondering when I can, you know... become one of you two... you know, the chemicals?" I say nervous to his response.
"We can do that now if you want. Baby, you know where to go," he said to Harley.
"Are you sure this is what you want-" Harley tried to ask.
"Just do it," he says raising his voice a little, then he rolls his eyes. "Of course it's what she wants. Once this is done we can be a family. Together, Harley. You wanted to save the girl anyway," he said rolling his eyes at her in frustration. Harley flashed me a worried look, and hit the pedal harder. I didn't know what the chemicals felt like. I don't know if it burns, if I'm going to cry and fuck everything up, or pass out, or even drown. I was getting worried, though I was ready to be like Harley. I could tell by the looks she kept giving me that she didn't really want this for me, I've known her since she was a doctor and if I turn like her, she won't remember her normal days anymore. Harley briefly looked at Joker to make sure he wasn't watching, then she held out her hand. I take it and my eyes fill with tears. If Miss was here to see me now, she would not be her happy self. I blink back the tears as we pull up and some tower/building thing. Joker opened the van door and we both get out, me finally off his lap. I walk towards the door on the front if the building when Joker grabbed me by the neck and pulled me away.
"The entrance is th-"
"is not there, dumbass," he said laughing crudly. Harley joined in, leaving me to feel like shit. He walked up to the wall and kicked it. To my surprise, it swung open. We walk inside and there are just alot of grey, layered stairs. I look down and see six huge tubs of pale yellow steaming gunk.
"Is that what I'm going into?" I turn to him.
"Unless you want me to drown you in it," he said bitterly. Harley laughed a little.
"Puddin," She said shaking her head lovingly at him. We walk down about 4 flights of stairs until we got to some edge made of wood.
"I guess your 'normal' days are up," Harley said, highlighting the word normal in a big way. I nod at her.
"You sure this is what you want," she says sounding hyper and psycho, putting her hands on my face and looking me in the eye.
"I want to join you," I tell her. Joker started growling.
"You want this?" He says, coming up to me, making Harley back away. I decided to stop being so nervy around him.
"I do," I say boldly. He nods at me with reassurance. I look behind me to the edge. I walk over it and look down. It was still a long way down, but not as high as it looked from a few flights up. I turn around and look at them both for a few seconds. If I stepped back another step, I would have gone over the edge. Harley runs up to me. She takes me by both hands and looks back at Joker who was waiting for the show.
"Oh, Puddin, let me go down with her," She begs. I can feel her hands shaking in mine. I squeeze them to try and comfort her.
"Harley, sweetheart, pumpkin, baby girl, we both know thats not a good idea. You can go under for her after," he said flirting at the first part. She looks back at me. I move my hands up to her elbow creases and she holds onto my arms as well. I look one last time at Joker, then focus on Harley. I lean back and feel my hands gliding nearer and nearer to the end of her wrist, still focusing deep in Harley's eyes. I'm still looking when I feel myself go over the edge. I couldn't see her anymore, just the levels flashing before my eyes. I feel myself hit the bath, and then I must have fallen uncontious to the bottom of the bath. I suddenly feel myself being slowly pulled up. I open my eyes and there I am, in Jokers arms, Harley behind him. She takes my hand. I look at Joker, all of us smiling.
"Welcome to the family, baby," he said loudly. Harley and me laugh in deep joy while daddy does his famous psycho laugh.
