Jack was up hours before Bruce the next morning. It was a Saturday, so Jack decided to let his husband sleep. He was dancing round the kitchen in a pink kimono, listening to the radio, whilst making  omelettes. Jack was removing the pan off the heat, when the doorbell rang. Padding over to the front door, Jack wondered who would be calling this early. He opened the door to reveal the face of none other than Harley Quinn as she readjusted her ponytails.

"Hey, Puddin! Did'ya miss me?"

Jack plastered a smile on his face.

"Of course, honey!"

She suddenly drew Jack into a passionate kiss, and his hands grasped her back. Bruce had just began was walking down the stairs in his dressing gown.

"Mmm, the eggs smell gorgeo..."

Bruce's eyes came to rest on his husband, kissing a strange woman in the doorway.

"Jack?"

Jack spun around, flustered.

"Look, it's not what you think, babe."

"It looks exactly like what I think, Joker." Bruce's tone was frosty, calling Jack by his villain name once more. "My husband, kissing Harley Quinn in my house. Get out. Both of you."

"O.K." smiled Harley, sauntering out the door.

"You too." Bruce said coldly.

Jack's face fell. "Please..."

"Go."
