J woke up with his head aching from the night before. "Ugh fuck. Knew I drank too much" The last thing J remembered was being at the club and getting rounds of different drinks. Shots, margaritas, you name it. As J was getting up he noticed on the right side of his bed that it was empty. "Where is she?" Where could she possibly be this early in the morning?" He asked himself. He looked everywhere. The bathroom, the living room, even the car. Nothing. He grabbed his phone and called her. He heard a ringtone go off once he called. He followed where the sound came from and it was under Harley's pillow. "Why would she leave her phone?" Something wasn't right. "What happened last night?" That same question ran through his head all morning. Then someone knocked on the door. J opened it with a hopeful look. Hoping that it was Harley. Turned out it was Frost. "Oh it's you." Frost was confused. J plopped on the couch and turned on the tv. "Hey Boss? What's going on?" J ignored him and put the channel on Gotham News. He always put the news on just to make himself feel better seeing everyone in fear after a crime had been committed, especially his own. But he didn't recall doing any crime last night.
After a few moments of silence the news had a Emergency Report. "Finally some entertainment" Joker said rolling his eyes. "This just in at ACE Chemicals. A body has been found in one of the bins. It is believed to be the "Queen of Crime" Harley Quinn. No evidence has been found yet of how this happened but it is pretty clear that the Infamous Harley Quinn is dead." J was in shock. He thought it was a dream but it wasn't. This was the news saying that his Harley was found dead. "What?! Who the fuck did this?!! I just saw her yesterday before I left and everything was fine! It wasn't suicide that's for sure. And I- I know it couldn't have been me.... Right?" Jokers head started to hurt. The question in his head had come back and the voices started to stir. "It was you, it was your fault you drunk bastard, Look what you did dumbass" J hit his head in anger. "SHUT UP!" Frost walked over too him and asked J what he should do. "Frost... there's nothing you can do. She's dead. And this place is so secure. The only people that could come in here is me... or Harley." J started to feel tears in his eyes. Frost new it was his time to go. "I'll leave you alone boss. Call me if you need anything. I'm sorry for your loss" Frost walked out and drove away. J broke down. He was on his knees. His fingers pulling his hair. He couldn't believe it. He was going insane. More insane than ever. He's never felt so sad. This was a pain he has never felt.
"Harley. Harley please.. come back" J said out loud crying holding onto the pillow she use to sleep on. Still smelling like her sweet vanilla scent. It was night now and the more he cried, the more memories came back. Piece by piece it started to come together. He tried to think more of what happened the night before. He soon put it together. "N-No. NO!" He heard her voice. Her screaming and fearful voice getting narrower and narrower. "PUDDIN!" J got up and started throwing everything. He was so angry at himself. "You fucking dumbass! You fucking killed her! Wh-What did she do to you to deserve it! NOTHING! NOTHING AND NOW SHE'S GONE! Harley, baby, I-I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry" he said holding a photo of them to his heart. Her smile so bright. Her laughter so beautiful. The way she looked everyday. Dashing. But now that was all gone. All because of one deal that didn't go right.
As he was on his knees with his head down he felt something or someone there with him. No one else was in the house except him. He grabbed his gun from his holster and pointed it where he felt something there. "Puddin" J was confused. The voice sounds so much like her. "Wh-who is there? Come out!!" He said with tears in his eyes. He then sees a light. A bright light at the door that was once their bedroom. It formed into a figure but not just any figure. The only figure that J new by heart. It was Harley. He was speechless. "Hi Puddin" She said with a smile. She was so beautiful. She was wearing J's favorite dress. The dress with the gold and black diamonds. It matched her so well. J stood up and walked over to her, his gun still aimed at the beautiful figure, "H-Harley? I-Is it really you or is this just my head messing with me?" She giggled and walked closer to him. The closer she got, the lower his gun went. Once she was face to face with him his gun was on the floor. "It's me J. It's not your mind messin with ya. I-I'll prove it" She grabs J's face and kisses his lips. It wasn't his mind. It really was her. The only thing different was that she was ice cold. "Harley. You're dead" She looked down. "I know. But, I needed to get something straight before I went. I don't know where but I just needed to see you" She looked back up at him and began to have tears form in her eyes. "J. I know that you were drunk and it's ok. I still love-" J cut her off. "No. What I did was unforgivable. All the crap I said to you was... horrible. Baby I-I'm sorry. You can't love me. How? I killed you." Harley wiped a tear from J's face. "J. I forgive ya just know that. I know that ya do love me. It did hurt me with what ya said but I know that ya didn't mean it. And I know that you do love me ok? I made an oath to ya. I would live and die for ya. And well... I may be dead but just know that no matter how, it was worth it. As crazy as that sounds but hey I am crazy!" J laughed. " Oh Harley. You're the only person that ever made me truly laugh. I- I don't know how to put this but I know that I'm never going to see you again. It's just the truth. So... I just want to let you know that I have never had so much fun in my life until I met you. You made me smile. You still make me smile" Harley had tears on her cheeks. "Oh J. Thank you. I'm goin to miss ya so much. How can I live without ya?" He held her face. "I'll always be there. I mean you'll see me. But I won't see you and I guess that's ok" Harley smiled. "Well it won't be ok but at least you'll know that I'll be here. In your heart" She smiled for a moment until she realised that it was almost time. "I-I have to go J. I'm sorry" J shook his head. "D-don't be sorry baby. You have nothing to be sorry about. I'll miss ya" They then went in to give each other a long, passionate kiss.
Once the kiss ended J knew he had to say how he really felt. And it had to
be quick. "I love you Harls. I always have and I always will. Remember that" Harley smiled. "I love ya J and I promise I will never forget, Puddin" They went in for a hug. It soon ended. It looked like J was hugging himself but it was just Harley not being there anymore. J smiled and laughed. This was a different laugh though. It had a mix of sadness and happiness. "I'll never forget you, Harley Quinn"
