how it all went down {batfam}

forty-four

Selina looked him in the eyes and saw how much he loved her. She saw everyone who was standing by waiting for an answer. She looked at Camilla who was smirking.

"Yes," Selina said softly with a shaky voice. Bruce breathed out a sigh of relief and everyone around him went crazy. Cam started crying and so did Taylor. Bruce put the ring on her finger and then immediately grabbed his face and kissed him.

"I'm the luckiest man in the world."

"Damn right you are." He laughed and kissed her again. Cam was filled with joy but then something else caught her eye. She told her wife she was going to the bathroom and headed out the back, unnoticed. Which was surprising for her because she's in a room full of superheroes.

"So why are you here?" Cam asked the tall slender figure.

"I wanted to watch you be taken away from me. I never thought it would happen." He threw out his cigarette and stomped on it.

"Are you going to take me?"

"No."

"Kill me?"

"No."

"Then goddammit Joker why are you here?! You are risking everything right now. There is a room full of superheroes less than 5 feet away!"

"I just wanted to see you all dolled up. Even if it wasn't for me." He looked her up and down and licked his lips. "Fuck you look god." Cam rolled her eyes and was about to walk away until the Joker grabbed her arm rather harshly causing her to jerk backwards and face him. "Were not done yet," he said in a low growl. Cam saw his demeanor change in that instant.

"Let me go," she said softly. She didn't want to cause a scene on her wedding day.

"Or what?"

"Do you really want to know?" She looked at the crowd and Joker followed her gaze and realized all of the superheroes. He let go and saw he wasn't winning this one.

"I'll be back," he said in a low tone. He threw her hand and pulled out another cigarette.

"Don't worry, I know." Cam went back inside and went straight to her wife who was on the dance floor bustin a move.

"Where did you go?" Taylor asked.

"Bathroom. But look at you getting down," Cam said grinding into her. Taylor started laughing but kept doing it. "I may need to take you to the bathroom." Taylor looked up at her and smirked.

"Promise?" Cam looked surprised. She looked around saw everyone was huddled around Camilla or Bruce and Selina. "I'll give you a quickie out back." Taylor also looked around and nodded. Cam led her out back into the garden.

"It feels like when we're teenagers. Sneaking around hoping your dad wouldn't find us. Good times."

"Now it's time to make new memories."

When they were done they went back inside and partied with everyone. Bruce was actually dancing and trying to bust a move which made Camilla laugh. The bat kids all lined up to do the Macarena which just liked Camilla with the utmost joy. By the end of the night everyone was worn out and Eve was passed out in Cassie's arms.

"That was hands down the best night of my life," Taylor said while holding Cam's hand. Cam looked at her and smiled.

"I'm glad. So now it's time for the honeymoon portion."

"We're having a honeymoon?" Cam laughed. But Taylor was confused.

"We just had a wedding. What follows is a honeymoon."

"Where are we going? What about Eve?"

"You think I would just up and leave our child alone?" Taylor avoided her gaze causing Cam to laugh. "Thank you for that. Alfred volunteered and of course the rest of the family will help." They opened the doors and were greeted by everyone. They both walked down the pathway and everyone threw rice. Taylor was the first to enter the limo and Cam looked back though. She looked at her dad and smiled and mouthed thank you. She ducked and went into the car.

"Where are we going?" Taylor asked right when the door closed.

"To the airport." Taylor rolled her eyes and looked at her wife.

"No silly. I mean for our honeymoon."

"Oh that? That's a surprise."

"No I don't want surprises."

"Too bad."

"That was so much fun," Cassie said as she walked into the manor. Eve had been with Drake so he decided to go put her in the crib. Everyone went to the kitchen and got out more beer while Jason went to his hidden stash of whiskey. He opened the bottle and swallowed a good portion of it.

"Did y'all notice when Cam left?" Dick questioned when he finished swallowing his beer.

"Her and Taylor wanted to start the honeymoon early," Jason said smirking while taking another sip.

"Ew. Your gross, Todd," Cassie said.

"Am I wrong?"

"Very. Because it was only her that left. Taylor was still on the dance floor," Stephanie said continuing.

"I followed her," Barbara said in almost a whisper. Everyone turned to her.

"Would you care to share with the class?" Todd said.

"Not really," she said about to walk out but then Drake entered blocking her way.

"Drake, trap her!" Grayson shouted. Drake became alerted and guided Barbara back in. She sat at the table and everyone surrounded her. She looked down, not wanting to say who she saw. She didn't want it to be true but in the end it was.

"Spit it out, Babs," Todd said becoming impatient.

"It was the Joker."

"I'm sorry it sounded like you said the Joker. But that can't be, right? Bruce would've said something.

"You can't mistake the Joker for anybody else."

"Did you hear the conversation?" Grayson asked.

"No but at one point she tried walking away and he grabbed her arm." Everyone tensed at that. "But she calmly talked to him and he let go and walked away."

"That's insane!"

"It isn't," Bruce said as he walked in. "Joker escaped Arkham about an hour before the wedding."

"And you decided to not share with the us?"

"I didn't tell y'all because it would've ruined the day." He went and got a beer from the fridge and drank some if it before turning around and being faced with everyone looking at him with disgust. "Am I really the bad guy right now?" he said while throwing his beer across the room causing everyone to jump. Especially Selina when she entered. She looked at Bruce and saw a man who wasn't himself at the moment. When Bruce saw her he softened up. "Selina-," he tried to say but she ended up running out.

"Bruce?" Dick asked to see if he was okay.

"Get out," he said in a low tone.

"Bruce-,"

"I said GET OUT!" Everyone got out of their seats and ran out and straight to their rooms. When everyone's door slammed shut, Bruce went berserk. He grabbed pans and threw them against the wall. He flipped the table with everything on it and broke a couple of chairs in the process. Bruce sat on the floor when all was done. Out of breathe and trying to catch it.
