The Late-Night Party

Bruce was standing in front of Diana's apartment, eagerly waiting for her to answer the door. Diana peeps at the peephole and a man in a fine suit with a bouquet of flowers in his arms can be seen. She answers the door as Bruce stumbles upon seeing her finally.

"Now that took a while" he uttered

"Oh stop it, A lady's got to look good sometime" she replied back with a feint smile

Bruce picks up a flower from the bouquet and tried to reach out for Diana's face but pulled back at the last second

Diana was confused, She was definitely expecting something like a move from Bruce Wayne. She looks at him with disappointment as she figured to make the first move since his Dark Knight is too shy.

"Let's get going, Diana" Bruce stated

"Say Bruce, How do I look in my dress" She asked with gleaming eyes

Bruce looks at her with hesitation. His mind was jumbled as he tried to form a compliment or something like that.

"You look...." Bruce hesitantly muttered

"Yessss?" Diana asked with her, leaning closer to see his expression

"You look...... properly groomed for the occasion" Bruce stated as he walks ahead

Diana looks at him with a big pout. She was more disappointed with the fact she spent over six hours to prepare and all she had was that half-assed praise.

Bruce notices he was still holding the pink gladiolus flower from earlier and decided to hide it in his coat. He lead Diana to the limo as Alfred greeted the lovely Amazon Princess in her beautiful nightgown

"A pleasant Evening Miss Diana" Alfred greeted sincerely

Diana smiled in response as she went in the Limo.

He proceeded to drive them to the museum where a party of stakeholders is held. It was a long silent trip as Bruce was seemingly nervous about something. They came to a stop at a traffic light's red signal.

Alfred looks at the rear-view mirror as she sees Diana adjusting her skintight black dress.

"You look most especially wonderful today Miss Diana" Alfred uttered

Diana notices and she smiles at him at the rear-view mirror.

"Thank you Alfred, you actually appreciated and praised me, unlike a certain someone, Isnt that right Bruce?" Diana uttered in a hostile manner as she looks in Bruce's direction while he was looking at the view outside from the window.

Diana scowls as she looks away, folding her arms to her chest in the process. Alfred looks at the young master from the rear-view mirror noticing the distance between them. Bruce looks back at Alfred from the same mirror with a stern expression as Alfred nodded to Diana's direction, indicating for Bruce to make a move. Bruce sighed as he tried to form a sentence under his breath

"Diana.."

Diana notices and looks at Bruce

"Yes?" she asked slowly.

She moves closer to him slightly as she tried to look at his eyes but he was trying to avoid her gaze.

"you look......" he hesitantly uttered

"Yes....?" Diana patiently asked as she leans closer to the unsettled Bruce.

He finally catches Diana's gaze and he got even more flustered and tongue-tied. He clinches his fist with Diana so close to him.
