•chapter thirty-five | Clingy

I woke up by the sound of soft snores right beside me. I opened my eyes and immediately saw my one and only jester sleeping right beside me.

Her arms securely wrapped around my torso, her legs wrapped around mine. She was so close, holding me close as if she didn't want to let me go, as if her life depended on me.

Which might be.

She moved a little just to nuzzle close to my chest, her soft lips lightly touching the skin of my bare chest. I usually sleep without anything besides a boxer. Harley wore a tank top and just damn short gym shorts.

I assumed she would even give me what I wanted last night, but instead, she just teased me all the way to just make me take a shower. I got upset, but still, I missed how adorable she was. After two days and sleeping without her by my side, I missed her so much beside me.

The nights I was away, I only slept in a motel, the employees barely wanted me inside. It was my fault, I pointed a gun at the receptionist's head to just give me a room. The woman was shaking, her hands barely held onto the pen that she wrote my name 'Joker' on the checklist of I assume costumers that checks in and out. Another employee led me to my room, not even talking to me while I just followed the woman while whistling. And when I checked out, I gladly gave them money for their poor service, since I didn't want any blood covering my shirt when I meet Harley again.

I caressed her cheek softly, before my fingers ran to her ear and pulled her hair behind her ear, revealing het full beauty without any disturbance. She's the most beautiful woman I've ever seen, that is a fact. But of course, I rather let Batman shoot me than to say that directly at her. She's truly the only woman who could control me, who surprisingly cured me. She did, she may not think she didn't cure me while we were inside Arkham.

"Puddin'?" I looked up to meet her blue eyes looking back at me, half opened. Her lips curled into a smile and fully opened her eyes, "Good morning." She groaned out, leaning upwards to peck my lips.

I pulled her in closer and gave her a kiss instead, "Good morning, pumpkin." I smiled back and nuzzled onto her neck.

"Aren't ya going to work?" She questions, playing with the strands of my green hair as I kept nuzzled onto her neck.

"How was I when you're holding me as if ya didn't want to let me go." I replied, chuckling at the end.

I noticed the faint tint of red on her cheeks that appeared before she pulled me even closer to her, "I just missed ya." She simply replied, making me smile even more. I patted her shoulder and tried to get up from bed, but she held me down, "Stay!" She demanded, pouted and whining.

"Babe, I need to finish off work-" I was interrupted by her whines. I let out a sigh before I used all my strength to get up from bed, despite her still hanging on my shoulders. "Harls, you're fuckin' heavy." I groaned, deciding to pick her up bridal style, my arms supporting her legs and back, careful to not let her fall.

She has a small figure, but damn she weights 2 whole sacks of concrete.

I forcefully placed her back down the bed, but her arms still wrapped around my neck, not letting me go. Well, she's getting annoying.

"Harley!" I grunted, but still no budge. Did she miss me that bad?

She nuzzled onto my neck, "Carry me." She stated, whispering against my ear. "Carry me. " She whined out the second time.

"You're being clingy today, pumpkin pie." I replied, narrowing my non-existent eyebrows at her.

I sighed in defeat and just picked her back up on my arms and carried her all the way to my office, I don't want her being in the shower with me and be this clingy.
