(Y/N) POV

For two days I felt numb. I stayed in my room most of the time. I was either sleeping or sitting on the windowsil staring at the woods. The only time I was not doing those things was when Alfred brought food or I had to use the bathroom or take a shower. Other than that I did nothing except wonder what I did wrong. Bruce has been there to comfort me but he doesn't help. I here footsteps and the door to my room open.

"Morning miss.(Y/N)" Alfred walks in with a tray of food.

I nod his way and turn back to the window.

"Look, I know this is hard for you but you need to cheer up." He says, closing the door as he leaves.

I go to the tray of food and eat a few mouthfuls before I heard footsteps again. I walk back to the window just in time to here the door open again. I turn my head and see Bruce walk in. 

"Good Morning." He says closing the door behind him.

"What's good about it?" I reply.

"I'm sorry. I forgot...." He says quickly, "I...uhh....got you something." 

He pulls out my phone and hands it to me. I quickly grab it and stuff it in my pocket. 

"Where'd you get it?" I ask

"I...The Bat gave it to me." He says

"Thank you" I reply softly

"Whenever you need something just tell me. Ok?" He says, his face turning red.

"Ok." I say turning my head to look him in the eyes. 

He averts his gave and turns around mumbling to himself. He leaves and I can here him scolding himself.  "Really?! 'Just tell me ok?' you know she doesn't like you!" His voice faded and I returned to eating. I finished eating and returned to my seat. I took out my phone and decided to call Joker. I dialed his number and put it on speakerphone. It rang three times before anyone answered.

"Hello?" A female voice answered.

" ......" 

"Hello?" She repeated

"I-is Joker there?" I managed to say

"Who is this?" She replied

"Just put Joker on the damn phone!" I told her

"Tell me wh-" Her voice was cut off

"Who is this?" 

I heard that familiar voice and my throat tightened.

"Joker?" I asked knowing the answer

"(Y/N)?" He replied

"Yes. It's me, J." I aswered

"Where are you?! Are you ok? Did the Bat hurt you?! Cause if h-"

"Joker!" I cut him off, " I'm fine, but I can't get out of here." 

"What?!" He yelled, "Where are you?"

"I-I don't know" I finally stammered.

I heard him put the phone down and yell to one of the goons. "Your tracing this right?!". I hear footsteps and quickly hang up. I hide the phone in my shirt and waited. I hear the foot steps walk to my door and stop. I take that as my que and drop to the floor and roll under the bed. Just as I got under the bed the door opened and in walked Bruce.

"(Y/N)?" He says walking in the room.

I roll out from the bed and get up.

"S-sorry, Bruce. I-I thought that you were someone else." I stammer

"It's ok but next time go to the closet." He says heading to the walk-in closet.

He pulls the clothes away from the wall to reveal a small panel sticking out. He pulls it away and there was a space just big enough for me to fit. He replaces the panel and walks out of the closet.

"Ok?" He says

"O-ok." I reply

He starts heading to the door, but stops and turns around

"I was wondering.....Would you like to go out to eat tonight instead of here?" He asks

"I-I....Yes that would be nice." I say suprised.

He smiles and heads back towards the door.

"Umm.....Bruce?" I ask. He stops and turnes towards me again.

"Can I-We- go to the store to get me a dress?" I ask nervously.

"Yeah-sure. Anything you'd like." He says walking out of the room.
