Concert
It was summer and Bruce promised Barbara to go with her to a concert of her favorite singer. Bruce kinda liked the music but he hated concerts, there were too many people and too many alcohol and drugs. "Come on Bruce, you promised to go to the concert with me, I'm sure you'll like it, he's an amazing singer!" Barbara said when she grabbed Bruce's arm and lead him into the concert terrain. It was a big grass field with at the end of it a big stage for the singer and the band. They had a place right in front of the stage, they were early so there were a couple of people. the singer quick came on stage to test the audio. "Uh... test, test? alright he's on! uhm... Hi early birdies! sorry, there are no seats, the band is lazy and doesn't want to stand, drinks are at the entrance... I think... and uhm... enjoy the show! we begin in 10 minutes from now!"
The singer was a young man, he had black hair what was slicked back with a lot of gel and hairspray , a slightly pale skin, he wore a nice black and white tuxedo, his eyes were emerald green, and his voice was sweet and soft. Bruce now knew why Barbara liked him so much, she didn't care much about the music, she was in love with the lead singer. The band was called "Giggle's and sounds", Bruce thought it was the worst name for a band ever. he thought the singer was just like all the others, waiting to ing his songs and go off stage when the concert ends. But this man was different, he did everything by himself, he tested the audio, pushed the piano and drumset on stage, laid the guitars on a table, and set the microphones on the good height. He rushed over the stage like he was a one man band, 5 minutes before the show started the band came on stage and started to grab their instuments.
"Isn't he pretty? and strong? and cool? He's perfect!" Barbara said quietly like she didn't mean to say that out loud. "Yeah he sure is... a good member of a band..." Bruce said, laying his arm on her shoulder. the band started to play. "Good evening ladies and gentlemen! we are tonight's antertainme... We are the band that plays tonight."the singer said. I know that sentence... No, he can't be, Jack is locked in Arkham, and he can't even sing. he probaly meant something different and realized that in the middle of his sentence... god Bruce! Don't think about Jack, you hate that clown! Bruce thought. After his last fight with Jack he couldn't think of anyone or anything else but him. Why the fuck did he had to kiss me?!
The band played a couple songs, the singer was good though. The band didn't have their own songs but all the songs the singer sang were better than the original version. A new song started and it made Bruce imidiatly think about Jack again.
"Every time we lie awake. After every hit we take. Every feeling that I get. But I haven't missed you yet...
Every roommate kept awake. By every sigh and scream we make. All the feelings that I get. But I still don't miss you yet...
Only when I stop to think about it...
I hate everything about you, Why do I love you?
I hate everything about you, Why do I love you?"
Bruce knew the song, Jack sang it during their last fight, it irritated Bruce so much, it's okay if people sing but only if they sing good. "Bruce? Are you okay? You don't look like you're enjoying this?" "I'm fine Barbara, I was just thinking about... something." "Okaaayy?" Barbara begin to sing along with the song. "Only when I stop to think about you, I know... Only when you stop to think about me, do you know... I hate everything about you. Why do I love you? You hate everything about me. Why do you love me?
I hate, You hate, I hate, You love me..."
No,no no no NO! IT CAN'T BE HIM! I have to stop thinking about that clown! I don't even like him! next time I see him I'm gonna punch him in his perfect face! Uh... his... ugly, psychopathic clown face. Bruce tought while a new song started to play. He realized the singer asked Barbara to come on stage, Bruce grabbed Barbara's hand. "You're not going anywhere Babara..." He said, not trusting the singer. "Bruce Wayne, isn't it? Hi, I'm a big fan of your work, can I have your girlfriend on stage for a minute?" the singer asked friendly. Bruce looked into the singer's eyes, he knew those eyes. "No, she stays with me." "Oh c'mon Brucie! Let her have some... fun!" the singer started to laugh. It is Jack! Brucie... when he knew I was Bruce wayne he called me Brucie all the time... Bruce jumped on stage. "Uhh we're gonna have a little break, people! I'll be back in a couple minutes!" The singer said through the microphone and ran away. Bruce ran after him.
"What you want, Brucie?! A private concert?" The singer laughed when Bruce grabbed his shoulder. They ran until they pass a little river. Bruce took the singers head and pushed it in the water. The water turned black, The singer stood up, coughing up some water. Black hairdye and a lot of make up were washed off. "Are you happy now? You know how long it took to get a good skin color?" the 'singer' said, running his hand trough his hair. Jack was standing in front of Bruce. "I knew it! Why you're doing this?!" Bruce grabbed Jack by his neck. "What is it, Brucie? Don't I have the right to sing in front of a lot of people, including your disgusting girlfriend?" "She's NOT my girlfriend! She's my police partner and a good friend who is a girl! And stop calling me Brucie!" "Okay okay... Why are you doing this? Is it because I can't sing?" "No, no... You sing fine... but why you sing all that songs that are... Us related?" "Because I hate you!" Bruce knew what Jack meant. He had so much questions right now but he could only look straight into Jack's eyes.
"Uhm Bats?" Jack broke the silence after a few minutes. "We're standing in a field of high grown grass, you know there are a lot of insect here, right? and uh... I have to go back to the concert becau-" Bruce pushed his finger on Jack's lips. "ssssh... That concert can wait... If this takes too long the band starts without you... no problem." he heard the band start playing a new song. "I hate you too..." Bruce whispered in Jack's ear. Jack pushed Bruce down onto the grass and they started to kiss. After that they lust laid on the grass for a couple more minutes, they were just cuddling. "I really have to go back, Bats." Jack said after a while, Bruce shaked his head and wrapped his arms around Jack as tight as he could. They started to kiss again and this time they went a little further.
"Now you can go." Bruce said after 5 minutes while he put on his pants. They both walked back to the concert terrain. Backstage Bruce helped Jack to dye his hair and put on some foundation, he also tried to get the grass off the tuxedo. It hurt a little when Jack walked because of what happened a couple minutes earlier in the grassfield but he didn't show any pain when he stepped on stage and started to sing again. Bruce went back to Barbara. "where have you been?! Look at your shirt, you wear it the wrong way! Why did you have to go after the singer? you ruined the whole concert for me!" She began, she was really mad Bruce went after the singer of her favorite band. "I uh... I got it hot when I was chasing him so I took off my shirt."
Jack heard the lie and started to sing a whole different song that was playing. "Show me how to lie, you're getting better all the time. And turning all against the one, is an art that's hard to teach. Another clever word sets off an unsuspecting herd and as you get back into line a mob jumps to their feet.
Now dance, fucker, dance. Man, he never had a chance. And no one even knew
It was really only you"
Bruce looked at Jack, he sang a lot better than when the were in a fight. Jack smiled at Bruce and started to dance awkwardly.
After the concert ended Bruce walked to Jack, Barbara followed him because she was scared, she didn't know Jack was the singer and she loved the singer. "Come, Backstage we can talk, there are too many people here." Jack said when he couldn't hear what Bruce said, Bruce ectually said something like "Should we go backstage? there's too much noise here.". Barbara just stand next to Bruce, giggling and fangirling about the fact she was standing with her favorite singer backstage. Jack started to laugh a little, "She really doesn't now, does she?" Bruce haked his head and smiled. "C-can I have a signature?" Barbara tried to speak, she almost screamed from happiness when Jack gave it to her. "Barbara, can you go to the car? I have to say one more thing to this man and then we can go home." Bruce commanded. Barbara nodded and left. Bruce gave Jack a kiss on his cheek, making him blush. "You was great tonight..." "You too, Bats!" Jack grabbed Bruce hand. Bruce pulled him into a kiss. When they were both exhausted the pulled away. "See you next time..." Bruce said. "See you tomorrow evening!" Jack yelled quick after Bruce started to walk off.
hmmm... maybe I have to listen to Barbara and go to concerts more often... Bruce thought.
