Love does cause pain

Déjà vu

🔥 Phoebe's p.o.v 🔥

After the twins were set Pamela woke Harley. My feet shuffled nervously as they approached our borrowed machinery. Mrs C stood at the other end of the cots, telling Harley about the twins progress. Pamela's eyes darting from me, to her mother and finally to Zatanna who was already making her way back up to Selina.

As Harley began to cry, everyone stood into there respective roles. Ivy wrapped her arms around Harley supporting her to the best of her ability. Dr C reassured Harley that the baby's are perfectly fine but need to be monitored closely. Me? I just stood there being of no use to anyone, the only reason I was here was because Selina wanted all hands on deck to make sure everything went smoothly. Now what. Do I wait for Ivy to kick me out. Wait for her to kick everyone out? I could just leave... would Selina be mad? As a sigh left my lips, my head tilled up slowly preparing for the evils Pam was probably shooting my way.

There was nothing, no evils, no eyes on me at all. Did they not hear? Realising where their eyes were I realised they simply didn't care. Harley's arms held the tiny baby wrapped in grey, that one was the boy. Pam held the baby in black, the girl. There faces held nothing but pure joy, and maybe a hint of worry, the twins were safe and sound for now. The all hands on deck might have been focused on after the twins were born not before, all of us would have to help them hide.

Harley had Joker's baby's, his legacy, he's not going to just stand around and wait for Harley to bring them too him.

"D'ya wanna hold 'em?" I realised Harley's tired blue eyes were looking in my direction, turning to the side I wondered when Selina came down. When I noticed there was nobody in my direction but me, I turned back to look at Harley.

"Me?" My arms subconscious raised and copied the layout of the other women's arms.

"Harley you can't let her touch-" without saying a word Harley's eyes traveled over Pam's hands, arms and then back up to her face.

Seconds later there was a small weight In my arms. Looking down my face attempted to stay straight, but babies are really weird and alien looking. As my mouth tried it's hardest not to let out a laugh I heard someone else beat me too it. Looking up at Harley I watched as she continued laughing.

"They don't even look human d'they." With a smile we both started laughing, Pam shot me some evil eyes but I realised now she doesn't trust me that's just her face, still it was a lot better than the look that I'd seen her give Zatanna and considering what I did to her I'd say that was pretty good.

Smiling down at the little alien in my arm, it was like my first night with these crazy guys all over again. Harley looking out for me and Pam looking for a way to kick me out, the only thing missing is Selina being suspicious.

"What's all this laughing about?" Holding the baby closer to my chest my body shifted to the voice approaching.

There body's so effortlessly sliding to lock into place with each other, gone was the form fitting fabric expertly tailored to make them look exactly how they wanted to be seen by the public but mostly by each other, now was the oversized spare clothes they threw on for comfort... still in both the warmth they shared was the same as the warmth shared by the other couple close by, one still shooting daggers into the back of my head or more likely through mine and too Zatanna's. Turning around Pam started grumbling as Harley spoke softly into her ear.

"Fine..." Pam letting Harley win whatever argument she made her way past me and over to Selina, there bodies pressing closely together as she moved her arms around and stepped back hesitantly, threatening Zatanna with her eyes until her focus shifted and hardened at me.

"I er- what do I do?" The baby now in Selina's arms, twisted and turned till he was in the exact same position as when Zatanna first dropped her into her arms, funnily enough Selina's face looked excatly the same to match.

Pamela's gaze was still locked firmly onto me, onto my hands as if she thought I'd do to the twins what I did to her. The guilt that I felt was overwhelming, what I did to Pam... I thought I was doing what I had too to survive, justifying it to myself. I had to explain myself to her before it took over anymore of our lives, maybe we could start over maybe I could be part of this family again. As I stepped forward my chance was taken from me as Harley escorted Pamela put of the room.

Slowly my eyes drifted back to Selina, a friend that had already forgiven my crimes. Zatanna was moving behind her slotting her body against Selina's back, cradling her arms and moving them around ever so gently. The baby in there arms no longer at risk of being smothered let out a tiny yawn. Zatanna's arms stayed around Selina's and her chin pressed onto her shoulder, grins took over both of there faces.

Until Zatanna's eyes moved to me, no not me something on me ? Oh. The baby that was now wriggling and scrunching up her face. Is he going to cry?! The only calming techniques I have are using my powers, something told me nobody would appreciate that, so looking up to Zatanna then back down to the baby I carefully shrugged my shoulders and moved over to her.

"No Pamela wo-" Slowly dropping the baby into her arms I left her no choice but to hold the baby, yes Ivy would probably kill Zatanna if the baby started crying in her arms, but better her than me.

"Harley won't mind. Anyways look she's going back to sleep great okay bye." Turning around I made my way to the kitchen away from everyone else, looking for that coffee Ivy made,

Seconds before my body ran through the open door frame, something I heard compelled me to stop. Looking around cautiously I saw Skylar on the floor next to Dr D sleeping on a large arm chair, that wasn't it ... Stepping slowly and cautiously through the door frame of the kitchen my body heated slightly ready to go full on super nova if I saw green hair. Red and yellow was far from green but the two hair colours were not far apart at all.

It was all laid out exactly the same as the first time, Harley pinning Ivy against the counter top. There was no hesitation this time round and without my meddling Harley peppered kisses all over Ivy's quickly redding face, both of them taking a second to grin, Ivy wrapped her arms around Harley and moved in closer.

Stepping back my foot connected with something solid. Something that attacked me and hissed, looking down there was scratches surrounding a tiny red ...thorn ?! I forgot Skylar could do that, I also forgot how loud Skylar hissed.

"Phoebe!" Dam, I really didn't mean to ruin the moment again, not like Pam's gonna belive me after this.
