This dedication is way overdue: Blackcat 1434! And to everyone else I'm so glad you like the story. It was stuck in a rut of like 10 people for a while and I was thinking about taking it down but I'm glad i didn't! If you want a dedication follow or put a star!

Loreli's POV

Once Edward left I started heading up to my apartment. As the sound of my shoes hit the hard wood floor of my hallway I thought about what he asked me. Reflecting over early events I realise that... I was having a good time last night. The jokes and riddles and pleasant conversations, it made me happy to look back on them. I smile to myself as I think of a few of his cocky remarks, it was actually kind of adorable now that I think of it. But... it doesn't matter anymore... he's The Riddler! One of the most wanted people in Gotham! I'd be crazy to fall for him! Right?... I unlock my door to find both Carry and James asleep on the couch. Carry leaning on James's shoulder breathing lightly. I chuckle at the cute scene, waking James, "IS SHE BACK!?" Carry jolted up from her startled pillow and they both stared at each other before gagging.

I smile, "Were you guys waiting up for me?" I ask while closing the door behind me and locking it.

"I tried to get him to leave! But he's stubborn." Carry yawned stretching her arms in the air. "What time is it?" She looked over at my clock that I have on my bar counter. "11:30! You were gone all night! And all morning!" Her light blue eyes widened and her jaw dropped.

"I- uhm." I tried to think of another excuse but nothing was coming to mind.

"Seems like kind of a slutty move to me." James muttered jealously. Carry slapped his arm in anger followed by him yelling, "Ow!" in pain. I walk into the kitchen to get a drink of water and I'm followed by the pair.

"Well don't leave me in suspense! How did it come to this!? Did you have a good time?" She raised her eyebrows up and down. I laughed and poured myself some water into a clear glass.

Taking a sip I dragged out the suspense for her, "eh." I shrug. I jumped when suddenly a voice entered my head.

"'Eh!' Gosh you weren't joking when you said you were gonna make me sound terrible." Ed sighed through the earpiece.

"So he was bad. Ha! I don't believe you. No one ends up spending the night till 11:30 after not having a good time!" Carry points out. James just stood there jealously listening to the conversation.

"Your friend does have a point," Edward sang. "Care to change your story?"

I growl at him, "Shut up!"

"What? I'm just saying that I think you had a better time than your letting on!" Carry raised up her hands in defence.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't mean.... you know, I guess you could be right. It wasn't all bad." I said making sure that The Riddler heard too.

Edward's POV

Ha! I knew it! Well of course I knew I know basically everything! I smile wickedly to myself as I walk into my shared home. Joker and Harley did at the dining room table awaiting me and by blueprints. Harley was first to notice my grin, "Why so happy?" She asked bubbly.

I chuckle inwardly, "Oh, nothing, just something I overheard." They look at each other and shrug.

"So, Edwardo, you got the plans?" Joker asks never dropping his iconic smile.

"Yeah I have it here." I set down the blueprints so the both of them could look over it. "So what's my roll in all of this?" I ask eagerly, I haven't done anything lately, besides going and kidnapping my date.
