Harley Diaries (Harley's story)

Seven

I sat there on the couch petting Bruce. I felt his nuzzling dozes of sleep. I missed J. I did. I know our relationship didn't end well, but it would be nice to be with someone again. I stopped petting Bruce. What am I thinking?

How could I go back to the man who hurt me? I stood up from the couch, I need to sleep. This chaos needs to settle. I left Bruce on the couch to sleep. I looked out the window beyond the sparkling lit city, what if we were still together? Him and I?  Would I still be the person before I became this Harley?  I remember causing so much pain to those who loved me when I showed the new Harleen. The dyed blonde locks dipped in pink and blue. The smug look on Joker's face when he showed his goons his new prize. The pain he caused for me and the love he rarely showed, why would I go back to such a man?

My concerning questions were later answered as a knock echoed on my door, Bruce jumped off the couch and landed on all four legs howling at the late night knock. My head jolted towards the pink and blue door. Who would knock at this hour? At one in the morning?  I made my way towards the door until I smelled that familiar stench of cologne. Joker. I opened the door slowly and looked out, J was laying his weight on the door way with a smirk amongst his face. He noticed me, and his smile grew wider. This is different, he seems different. 

"Hello, Harls," He approached.

"How d-did you find me, J?" I mumbled.

"Hun, you are always easy to find, even when you're silent as can be."

Bruce stood by my side, growling, J looks down and notices. He smiles and his teeth glisten at Bruce. Bruce stops growling and pants in delight. What the hell did he do to Bruce? Joker pets Bruce amongst his temple.

"I see you got a hyena, H," He faces me, his hazel eyes match mine. I see kindness drifting amongst them.

"Yeah, His name is Bruce, named after-"

"After Bruce Wayne?"

"Yeah, exactly, how did you know?"

"Wild guess." He said with a cackle.

I stood still, that laugh. That one laugh that made me fall head over heals in love with the psychopath. 

"Harley, are you okay?" He stops laughing, he seems to care.

"Huh, oh um yeah." I say, "Why are you here by the way?"

"Oh, um right... I know our past isn't the greatest thing in the world, but I've been thinking lately. And I want your honest opinion when I ask this..." He sighed, "Would you consider being my little clown queen again?"

My breathing abruptly stopped, the world is getting dizzy. My mind is racing, why me again? Then, the next thing I know, I fall and the world goes black.

A dream races through my mind. Joker and I are dancing, my hair is longer, I'm wearing a wedding dress and he's wearing a tuxedo. We stop and we share a long kiss. 

I woke up in J's arms, he has a worried expression across his face. I sit up slowly, I look into Joker's eyes, I can't control my body, until... I went in for a kiss, we sit on my floor kissing for a long time. Until we departed to breathe. He smiles, I feel a blush and smile appear on my own face. 

"Of course, I'll go back with you, J!" I say while hugging him tightly.

"I love you, Harls!" He says with a wicked smile.

"I-I love you too!" I squealed in return. We sit there sharing a long hug, knowing we'll never let each other go. We share another long kiss, the world seems different this time with J, the city is no longer dark within my soul.
