36: A Storm Is Coming

Bruce's PoV
~~~~~~~~~~
I was in the bat cave when all of a sudden my computer crashed and I began to Panic.


"Alfred!" I called out. The screen turned green than blue and red, before I heard a laugh. "Joker." I said under my breath.


"Batsy, Batsy, Bat. Rember when you took my love away. Well.... She is coming for her puddin' ha ha ha ha. I've already got a..."  The Joker's voice came through my speakers until Alfred unplugged the computer.


"You're welcome."  Alfred said.


"Uh-huh Thanks. He was trying to say something."  I said.


"He's trying to provoke you." Alfred replied.


"I guess. Alfred can you get me a meeting with Waller I need to get more information about the fast kid."


"Yes Master Wayne."


"Thank-you Alfred and any mews on the activity of Penguin and Riddler."


"No they've been quite."


"I wish that was a good thing but-"


"It never is."


"Yes Alfred it never is." I said plugging my computer back in I started to do some decryption to find out how the Joker was capable to hack my comp and Alfred was doing some repair on my suit when Y/N walked in startling both Alfred and I.


"Y/N, How did you-" I started.


"Hey to you too and it's not hard you two always come back from the same direction I went to the bookshelf and picked up the right bookand the door opened." Y/N explained.


"How did you know which book?" Alfred asked.


"I'm clever I capable of figuring it out." She said. "Okay to be honest I haven't read Shakespeare in ages and I remember talking with Bruce about different plays Shakespeare wrote."


"Wow I never knew Bruce spoke to women about anything but himself."  Alfred joked and I laughed.


"Very funny Alfred." I said in an annoyed. "Now Y/N do you need anything or are you leaving I'm busy here." I said I was frustrated I was doing something important and Y/N just came in for a stupid chat.


"Well I came to invite you to dinner but that offer is gone I'm sorry Bruce I didn't mean to invade." She obviously sounded annoyed at me I tried apologising but the only thing I could say was "I-i…" Before she stormed out, I slammed my head on the table giving up on women and myself. "Ouch." I said not really from pain bit more to say something but the only thing I heard in response was Alfred walking out. I knew that both of them were now annoyed at me.


I carried on working booked a meeting with Waller and then began finding out information on Joker's recent location and activity.  I learned that he attempted breaking Harley Quinn out a few times but each time failed... Luckily.


Later I left the bat cave and went to apologise to Y/N and Alfred. Y/N was helping Alfred cook dinner so I went and joined in.


"How can I help?" I asked.


"It's okay go work."  Y/N said.


"I'm sorry for being mean I was aggravated by something that happened with my computer and Alfred I don't respect you enough I'm sorry."  Both of them forgave me and we all contributed to making dinner.


Later that night when Y/N and I were in each others arms in bed watching TV I decided to ask about the dinner Y/N mentioned earlier.


"Hey baby?" I started.


"Mhh?" She did to let me know she's listening.


"Am I still uninvited to the dinner you mentioned?"


"What dinner? Oh that no." She said which made me smile.


"So when is it and what is it?" "


"Whenever your free and dinner with my parents." 


"Oh um wow."


"What I met yours already."


"True." I said with a small chuckle. It warmed my heart that Y/N talked to my parents' grave. "I've got a meeting at eight pm next Wednesday apart from that my evenings are free. Well unless something breaks out and -"


"Batman is needed, I know anyway in that case my dad will have to leave too."


"Oh yeah Gordon." 


"Yeah."


"Wait who's surname do you have Joker's?"


"No my biological mum's, I think at least that's what I've been told."


"Oh.."


"Yeah what if we have dinner with my parents next Monday?"


"Sounds good."  I agreed.


"Okay I need to check if my parents are free." Y/N said picking up her phone and scrolling through her contacts.


"Are they gonna be up its eleven?" I asked.


"Yeah my dad's probably working so my mum is waiting she refuses to go to sleep if he's not home."


"That's so sweet."  I said before thinking about all the long nights I spent working with Jim and how hos wife waited the whole time for him, about those times we stayed out till the early hours of the morning.


"Okay now shh it's ringing."  Y/N said and I nodded. "Hey mum...I spoke to Bruce and we're free next Monday... Yeah seven is fine." Y/N said before making sure with me by putting her thumb up and down and I put my thumb up."Yes I'll bring max...i know dad will love him...I know…okay I'm gonna go…okay…bye …love you too…okay bye." Y/N said ending the call.  "Wow that woman can speak a lot."


"Just like you."


"What?"


"What?" I played stupid and we both laughed. We watched TV until we decided it was time to go to bed.


A/N: My hiatus is over *crowd cheers *actually no sound at all is made** anyway I'm back to my old upload schedule. So yay!
