❛ Like a butterfly, she flies away
afraid of being caught by man. ❜

  She puts her walls up.
  He smashes them down.

  He takes two steps forward.
  She takes two steps back.

  He holds on.
  She lets go.

  Life is a cruel joke.
  But it's a cruel joke with him in it.

  'Keep him at arm's length.'

  It's difficult though when all he wants to do is wrap her up in his arms. Tell her his past, his faults, his secrets, and the dreams he holds dear. All of it.

 The Captain of Gotham Academy's varsity squad is a recognized talent known throughout. Her beauty captivates any individual that lay eyes on her. 

  On the surface her life is simple and envied, however, if you were to keep diving you'll find an overwhelming darkness where the past of this cheerleader lies.

  Richard Grayson, the adopted son of Bruce Wayne sits watching from afar. Not in 'awe' but in sadness that the one who is adored by all where's a fake smile to mask the pain, darkness, and guilt. 

  Like a fragile butterfly, she flies away afraid of being caught by man. Her wings are brittle, battered, and broken after the past she has run from for so long resurfaces to wreak havoc on the life she made for herself.

  How far can she fly?

  How much can this butterfly bear ... before ultimately drowning herself in the sea pain she holds for the ones around her.

Cold Love by Mask1005

Love. A word so simple yet so complex. For Bruce, it meant family. Family that he lost and the family he created. But love can be harsh, especially if you can't express it. "Bruce I love you but do you?" "I love you dad." "Old man, I once cared for you." "Bruce you were more of a father to me than him." "Father is tolerable." A love story between a cold bat and an average woman and a complicated family. Competed November 23, 2020 **Short chapters** #Disclaimer: I do not own any DC characters or story lines!

Belong Here With Us (Wayne Family Adventures Fan-Fiction) by Beck_Stynes_027

"That name's familiar, right, Mr. Wayne?" Gotham's vigilantes find a mysterious young woman. Unharmed but shaken. No reason for being there. No origin or trace. She drops a bombshell; she knows Batman's identity and she's just outraced death. Her refusal to trust the Batfamily and connection to a man, whose very moniker spells danger, brings tension. Walls must crumble for her old self to emerge from memories of demons-past and present-that even she's reluctant to acknowledge. She may also just be a kindred spirit; damaged. Love, family, loss-and romance-are universal. Mourning alone, far from home, is where no one deserves to be. What chased her to them? Unimaginable worlds exist outside your comfortable cities or worst nightmares... Once reached: (not important but tons of other stories do it) #1 in Batman #1 in Crime Syndicate #8 in PTSD #1 in Oracle First draft. Reading time is inaccurate. It's way shorter, the later chapters get short again. *Recommended ages 15+. Strong language, violence and implied sexual or intense situations. Brace yourself; that's the trigger warning. Protagonist is an OG character based in 'Wayne Family Adventures' universe. Includes features from other DC movies, universes and comics, with some author-original concepts.

Unrequited Love [Jason Todd x Reader] by Yam_0403

Love may seem like a really complicated term depending on the person who seeks it. It can be pretty like a scene from a fairytale, but it can be the very weapon that can kill you emotionally, and (Y/N) has learned that the hard way. She searched for it, as anyone would. Wished to receive that love that heartened people's souls, and enhanced connections. Just as she was slowly beginning to understand it, that wish slowly began to turn to a pipe dream. "I finally found you" "I always had hoped you'd come back one day. I had so many things I would've loved to tell you, but now that you're here in front of me, I only have one thing to say," "𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶" 》Swearing 》Female Reader 》Storyline is mine 》All DC characters aren't mine •▪︎Hɪɢʜᴇsᴛ Rᴀɴᴋɪɴɢs▪︎• #1 jasontoddxreader #2 alfredpennyworth #3 damianwayne #5 jasontodd #9 joker #9 redhood #63 agent #79 harleyquinn 𝚂𝚝𝚊𝚛𝚝 𝙳𝚊𝚝𝚎: August 16, 2021 𝙴𝚗𝚍 𝙳𝚊𝚝𝚎: October 25, 2021

Shadow Creatures || TIM DRAKE by Justeen_96

DC Series Book One "No don't..." But her arms go up and the mesmerizing portals appear. Through the portal closest to them, the boys can see grass and park benches where concrete and pavement should be. She jumps through and as she does, the portal in front of them collapses. Off in the distance, where the park is, Tim can see her running away, dark hair flying in the wind. "Real smooth Drake." Damian says, striding towards me. "Should've asked for her number while you were at it." --- "Phantom? That's the name you're going with?" "It's a hell of a lot cooler than Robin." She snaps back at him. "Robin was not a name that I..." Tim grabs Damian by his cape as he marches toward her. "Be nice to the guests Damian." Alfred says in a tired voice, interrupting Damian's rant. "Bite me." He snarls at Ria. --- Dabria Tran has lived in Gotham City her whole life. First as a nurtured, well looked after baby, then as an orphaned, forgotten child and now as a desperate, impulsive teenager. At the ripe age of eighteen, Ria is on the streets, fending for herself and dealing with powers she can barely control. It is while on patrol that Tim Drake and Damian Wayne spot this camouflaged girl of the night and try to stop her as she breaks into a local convenience store, not to steal the cash but the food. After obsessively tracking her for a week, Tim finally catches up with her, finding her holed up in an abandoned building with another younger girl she is trying to care for. Bruce Wayne doesn't hesitate to take them in, but Ria's mistrust of them leads to tension in the house. Her powers are dangerous, volatile and no matter how hard Tim tries, he can't get her to open up to him. As Ria's shadowed past slowly catches up with her, the Bat Family finally realizes that they have no idea what kind of forces they're dealing with.
