Riddler's POV
"Yes!" I shouted proudly. I spun around in my wheelchair and found a tall and confused Johnathan Crane staring at me. "Gah!" he really need a bell or something. He's almost as bad as Batman!
"Sorry, didn't mean to scare you." John smirked. "Why are you so happy, Ed?"
"None of your business," I stuck my nose in the air proudly, I didn't have to explain myself. Without my noticing, Crane quietly walked to the computer and started looking at the emails. "Who's Loreli?"
"Hey!"
"You're going on a date?!" Crane was in complete shock. "Oh they're gonna want to here about this!"
"They??!" I became worried. What does he mean 'they'!?
"They, as in everyone in the living room. They kinda invited themselves but who was I to object I let myself into your place all the time."
"You mean break in." I grunted.
"Eh, Tomato, Tomoto." he headed out the door and I quickly ran behind. He was right, there they were. Joker, Harley, Twoface, and Ivy. Surely, my place can't be that accessible! "What are you all doing in my house?!"
Harley peeked over the couch and smiled, "Hi'ya, Eddie!" Then Joker turned around, "Hey Edwardo, look, my place is a little... destroyed. Mind if we crash here?! We'll try and keep the volume down!" I don't even want to know what he meant by that!
"I guess, seeing that you already let yourselves in! So what are your excuses?!" I glared at Twoface and Ivy. "I just came here to hang out with Harley." Ivy responded innocently. "I had nothing better to do with my time, I might leave in 2hrs."
"Ed has a date!" John blurted out.
"John!" I protested.
"Really?!" Ivy seemed especially surprised. Harley jumped up and over the couch and hugged me. "Yey! Congrats Eddie! What's her name?! Oh!" she turned to the group. "Alright guys pay up!" she held out her hand. They all reluctantly got up and paid her $50 each.
"You bet on my love life?!!" I growled.
Harley shrugged, "At least I thought you had a chance!" she giggled. Joker came up behind her,"No offense Ed but I just didn't think of you as a dater. "
"Yeah and we totally expected it of you, Joker." I said sarcastically. He laughed, "I guess you got me there!"
"So, who's the lucky girl?" Twoface asked in his gravely voice. Harley echoed him, "Yeah, who's the lucky girl? Oh please, please, please, tell!!!" she begged. I couldn't deny her what she wanted, she was begging, and I'm a sucker for someone who begs. "Her name is Loreli." I grinned.
"Oh so she's that girl you've been stalking right?" Johnathan smirked nonchalantly. My face went crimson, how'd he know? "I'm afraid I have no idea what your taking about." I lied. Joker cracked up, "Riiight! That's why your as red as a tomato!"
"Aww, come on Puddin' give 'im a break! He's nervous, I rememba' when you were nervous on our real first date." Harley smirked, then Joker got really defensive, "HUH? I WAS NOT!!" Harley giggled at him and kissed his cheek.
Ivy walked over, "So she knows about you? And she's OK with it?" Everyone looked my direction, awaiting my answer. "Uhhh, well... not exactly. She just thinks my name is umm, Mr. E."
Twoface chuckled, "Couldn't think of a better name?" I gave him an angered stare.
"Your not goin' dressed like that, are ya'?" Harley asked me. I looked down at what I was wearing, i didn't see anything wrong with it. I was wearing a green T shirt with a question mark on it, jeans, converse, and of course I had my hat and cane! "What's wrong with it?" Harley and Ivy looked at me like they were asking 'really?' then they started pushing me to my room. When we got in there they started searching my room. "I don't understand what's wrong with what I'm wearing?!"
"Everything, if you wear that everyone gonna be screaming out the door, including her." Ivy said looking through my closet. Harley opened one of my drawers and immediately closed it, "My eyes! I'm blind!"
I cracked up, "oh yeah, that's my underwear drawer." Harley cringed and continued through the other drawers. Eventually it all came down to Harley and Ivy fighting over whether I should wear a green or purple shirt. Apparently my opinion didn't matter and it was nearing 6 so I decided to let them believe that they still has a reason to debate the shirt while I just put on a white shirt and black vest. The girls didn't notice and continued their arguments as I stepped out and was greeted once again by the guys. "Well don't you look spiffy!" Joker declared.
"What happened to the girls?" Twoface asked.
"Oh, yeah their still in there. There arguing over if i should wear some shirt, something about my eyes or personality. I would have stopped them but... no, no I wouldn't have."
Joker stepped up and said, "I'll volunteer to get them!" and with no chance of us objecting he went to my room to get them. After hearing a lot of yelling and couple of things being thrown he finally retrieved them, well more or less. He had Harley thrown over his shoulder and was dragging Ivy out by her hair but I that was normal. He let go of them and they calmly stood there.
"Ok, now if you'll excuse me I have a date to get to." I headed for the door.
"Wait!" Harley yelled, I turned around, "Yes?" I asked patiently. "Don't talk about yourself to much!"
I gave her a confused look, "huh?" "Well no offense but ya' are a little... egotistical." she pinched her fingers together to show how little. "But in such a great topic!" Which is true. "Loreli might not think so!"
"She's got a point Ed. Your ego is one of your least attractive qualities." Ivy stated.
"Here is what I heard 'Ed is attractive.'" I grinned. They all looked at me disappointed, except for Joker but then again he's always smiling. "Puddin' maybe you can explain better?" she asked kindly. Joker shrugged, "Eddie you can be annoying."
"Oh, OK." that made more sense. Strangely though Ivy and Harley were upset that it made more sense Jokers way. Then Ivy snapped her fingers like she remembered something, "What's her favorite flower?!"
"White roses! I-I mean how should I know?" I tried playing cool but even I know I bitterly failed. "Nice recovery." John laughed. Which was weird. Ivy then grew white roses from the ground and gently plucked them and gave them to me. I took them grateful and headed for the door.
"Uh, Ed?" John called out. I turned around, "What?!" He pointed at my cane, "Hand it over." he held out his hand, reluctantly I gave it to him and was about to try leaving again but then John coughed, I sighed and have him my hat as well. He smiled, "Carry on." And with that I was gone.
