It's been about six months since I learned of Bruce being Batman, and this Saturday night is our two year anniversary. I've met many other super friends of his that have visited the batcave on occasions, including the Flash and Superman, each of whom I have bonded to closely.
Bruce still feels guilty for the way I found out about his bat-secret, and he says we're going to the circus for our anniversary to make it up to me. Some may think its a horrible way to celebrate an anniversary but I think it's perfect, and I can't wait to go.
Saturday night comes and I'm dressed in a comfortable sweater and Bruce joins me in the main foyer in his own sweater.
"So, this circus isn't the only one in the area and it's certainly not the closest." I say to him as we make our way to his car. We agreed not to have Alfred drive the limo tonight. "Why this one?" I ask.
"I helped a few of the acts out the other night when I was up late." He replied. I knew what he meant, he had helped them out as Batman.
"Why would circus performers need your help?" I ask as we get in and put on our seatbelts.
"They were being threatened by Zorro, I've been trying to catch him for a while. I only got his brothers the other night." He replied.
"And you're sure he won't come back on his own?" I ask him in concern.
"Zorro was the ring leader, but he couldn't do anything without his muscle." Bruce replied and we started off to the other end of Gotham city to see Haley's circus.
"You know, I didn't imagine myself marrying a woman who would want to go to a circus for our anniversary." He told me as we walked to the tent.
"Oh? And what kind of woman did you see yourself marrying, Mr. Wayne?" I ask with a smirk.
"Someone who wants diamonds, fancy dinners, ballroom dancing types." He replied with a sarcastic smirk on his face.
"Well, so sorry to disappoint your wallet, Bruce." I say and lean into his arm. We both chuckle and find our front row seats.
"How on Earth did you get such good seats?" I asked him.
"The Waynes funded tonights show, didn't you know?" He smirked down at me and I rolled my eyes.
"No, but it would have been nice to." I reply.
The show was spectacular. The strong man looked as muscular as Superman himself. The jugulars balanced things on their heads I didn't even know could stay standing on a flat surface. One of the last shows was the acrobats show.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you, the Fearless Flying Graysons! As always, performing their death-defying feats without the safety of a net!" The ring master says through his microphone. I hold in my breath when I notice the there really was no net.
