Chapter Eleven - Robbery Take Two

Selina, J and i waited in an alleyway across the road from the bank we are about to steal from. A nervous feeling ran through my body, but it was a good nervous feeling . Cause that makes total sense.

Selina was sitting on the floor of the alley way with her lap top placed on her lap, typing away like her life depends on it. Come to think of it i'm sure it does. I'm sure if she fails with what she's doing J will either kill her or make her wish she's dead.

"How much longer is this going to take cat?" J asked Selina in an annoyed tone.

"If you want this done properly, you have to wait." She sighed in return.

i leaned my back up against the brick wall and fiddled with the gun on my hands. I really hope i don't have to use this, i'm not sure i can kill an innocent person. I mean last time was for self defense and they weren't innocent.

"You alright doll face?" J asked, walking over to me and standing in front of me.

In the corner of my eye i see Selina scowl at J. I understand why her and Pam told me not to fall for any of the clown's games, but i also think he is actually concerned about how i feel. Then again i could be wrong.

"Uh yea, i'm just nervous is all." I shrugged, staring down at the ground.

He gently grabbed my chin and lifted my head to look at him. A somewhat genuine smile spread across his face, i like that smile a lot more than his other one.

"Baby i promise i won't let anything happen to you like last time, though to be fair that was your fault." He said, his Joker smile coming back.

I smiled up at him and nodded. He let go of my chin and using the same hand he caressed my cheek. Why is it whenever he touches me i get this weird feeling in me. I am not falling for this clown, i can't. I won't.

He took a step back and walked further down the alley way to where a few of his henchmen were waiting for us. I walked over to Selina and sat down next to her.

"What does he mean by last time?" She asked, not even stopping and looking up at me.

"Um well the last time we robbed a bank i got shot, i took the bullet for him." I answered softly.

She immediately stopped typing and looked up at me. I smiled over at her sheepishly then looked down at the ground. I'm only realising this now but if i hadn't have taken that bullet, there could of been a high chance of him dying.

Which means i could have left all of this. I could of gone back home. Though i'm not sure if my parents would happy about how i look.

"Why did you do that?!" She asked in an angry tone.

"I don't know why, but i just did okay." I replied in almost the same tone.

She just shook her head slightly and sighed, then went back to her hacking. I looked over at J, only to realise he was already staring back at me with the same strange look in his eyes.

Lust.

I wish i could read his mind and know what he's thinking when he looks at me that way. He beckoned me to go over to him,  so i slowly stood up and walked over to him. I stopped right in front of him and slowly look up into his eyes.

He snaked his hands around my waist and pulled me up against his chest. He tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear and planted a small kiss on my  forehead. He opened his mouth to say something but Selena  beat him to it.

"Okay i'm done, you can go in now." She said in an annoyed tone.

I heard a small growl escape his lips, he then nodded his head. He turned his head to where six of his men were standing waiting for his directions and told them to grab their gear and head over.
