BFF!Sevika x Reader - Someone Better
Summary: After you discover your boyfriend has been cheating on you, Sevika is there to pick up the pieces, finally confessing the feelings she’s been hiding for months.
The first time Sevika met your boyfriend, she’d disliked him instantly.
Not because she was jealous. Not yet.
It was the way he talked over you. The way he accepted your kindness like it was something owed to him. You’d hand him your jacket when he was cold, offer him the better half of your meal, smile softly every time he barely looked at you, and he’d take and take and take without a second thought.
Meanwhile, Sevika sat across the room practically vibrating with irritation.
Because you were good.
Too good.
You remembered everyone’s favorite drinks. Fed stray cats in the lanes behind the Last Drop. Patched up bruises for people who didn’t deserve your gentleness. You laughed with your whole body, bright and warm and sweet enough to make Sevika feel sick with how badly she wanted to keep you close.
And that asshole barely even noticed you.
So yeah. Sevika hated him.
“You could do better,” she’d grumble sometimes.
You’d always roll your eyes fondly. “You always say that.”
“Because it’s true.”
Then you’d smile at her, all soft and teasing. “You’re biased.”
Maybe she was.
Sevika had been hopelessly in love with you for months.
Maybe longer.
She started inventing excuses to see you. Walking you home. Bringing you stupid little things she claimed she “found lying around” even though everyone knew Sevika did not casually buy fresh flowers or your favorite snacks for people she didn’t care about.
You always thanked her like she’d handed you the world.
That made it worse.
Because every time your boyfriend forgot you somewhere, every time he canceled plans last minute, every time he snapped at you and you immediately apologised even when you’d done nothing wrong, Sevika had to sit there clenching her jaw instead of dragging him into an alley.
You deserved somebody who looked at you like you hung the moon.
Sevika already did.
You just didn’t know it yet.
-
The two of you were sitting together at the bar one evening while Sevika finished paperwork she’d been putting off for days.
Well. Trying to finish paperwork.
Mostly she was watching you ramble happily about some little trinket you’d bought at the market.
“And the lady even drew these tiny little flowers on the paper bag!” you said excitedly.
Sevika snorted softly. “You’re easily impressed.”
“She was sweet!”
“You think everybody’s sweet.”
Your grin widened. “Not everybody.”
Sevika looked up then.
Really looked at you.
You were leaning against the counter, chin propped in your palm, smiling at her with this unbearable softness that always made her chest ache.
Before she could say something stupid, your phone buzzed.
You glanced down automatically.
Then your face changed.
The smile disappeared first.
Your brows furrowed.
Then the color drained from your cheeks.
Sevika straightened immediately. “What?”
You didn’t answer.
Your thumb trembled against the screen.
“Hey,” Sevika said more gently this time. “What happened?”
You swallowed hard and turned the phone toward her.
A message.
From some girl.
At first Sevika only caught bits and pieces.
Didn’t know he had a girlfriend.
Been seeing each other for months.
Thought you deserved to know.
Attached beneath it were pictures.
Your boyfriend kissing her.
Holding her waist.
Looking happier than Sevika had ever seen him around you.
For a second, Sevika saw red.
Pure, violent rage.
But then she looked at you.
You were staring blankly at the screen like your whole world had just cracked open.
“Oh,” you whispered.
That tiny broken sound hit Sevika harder than anything else could have.
“Hey,” she said immediately, shoving the paperwork aside. “C’mere.”
You shook your head once, sharp and shaky. “I- I don’t understand.”
“He’s a fucking idiot,” Sevika snapped.
Your eyes filled instantly.
And that was it.
Sevika moved without thinking, pulling you against her chest as you finally started crying.
“Oh, sweetheart,” she murmured, one hand cradling the back of your head. “Don’t cry over that piece of shit.”
You clung to her immediately.
Like you’d been holding yourself together by a thread.
“I wasn’t enough,” you choked out.
Sevika pulled back so fast it startled you.
“Don’t say that.”
“But if I was-”
“Don’t.” Her voice turned rougher this time. Fierce. “You are more than enough. He’s just too stupid to appreciate what he had.”
Fresh tears spilled down your cheeks.
Sevika wiped them away carefully with her thumb.
“He cheated on the sweetest, kindest person I’ve ever met,” she muttered bitterly. “That says everything about him and nothing about you.”
You stared at her silently.
God, Sevika hated seeing you hurt.
It made something ugly and protective curl in her chest.
“I just really liked him,” you whispered.
“I know.”
“And he still-“
“Because he’s selfish.” Sevika’s jaw clenched. “Not because you failed.”
You broke again after that.
Soft sobs shaking through you while Sevika held you tighter, one hand rubbing slowly up and down your back.
She could’ve stayed like that forever if it meant keeping you safe.
Eventually your crying quieted into sniffles.
“You’ve always hated him,” you mumbled weakly.
Sevika huffed. “Yeah.”
A tiny laugh escaped you despite everything.
“There’s my girl,” Sevika said softly before she could stop herself.
The words slipped out naturally.
Possessively.
Your eyes widened slightly.
Sevika froze.
For a long moment neither of you moved.
Then quietly, you asked, “Why are you so good to me? Why do you care about me so much?”
Sevika stared at you.
At your tear-stained cheeks. Your soft eyes. The way you still leaned into her like you trusted her more than anyone else in the world.
And she realized she couldn’t lie to you anymore.
“Because I’m in love with you,” she admitted hoarsely.
You inhaled sharply.
Sevika almost pulled away immediately. “Forget I said that. You’re upset and I shouldn’t have-”
“No.”
Your hand caught hers before she could retreat.
“No?”
You shook your head slowly.
Then, with this shy little smile that nearly killed her, you whispered, “I’ve been in love with you too.”
Sevika just stared.
Actually stared.
“You serious?”
You nodded.
“I just never thought you’d feel the same way. So I kept trying to bury it and ignore it… but I guess it never really went away.”
And Sevika laughed once in disbelief before cupping your face carefully in both hands.
“So that asshole really fumbled this badly,” she murmured.
You snorted wetly through your tears.
Then Sevika kissed you.
Soft at first.
Almost hesitant, which for Sevika was unheard of.
But the second you melted into her with this tiny relieved sound, something in her chest cracked wide open.
She kissed you like she’d wanted to for months.
Slow and careful and full of everything she never knew how to say properly.
When she finally pulled back, your forehead rested against hers.
“You deserve so much better than him,” Sevika whispered.

Nancy and Eddie had been together for a few months, their relationship had been under the radar since the beginning but you noticed.
The quiet, timid one. You saw it all unfold from a distance, watching from a far as he stole glances at her. Their fingers brushed as they passed each other in the dark corners of bars and the rocking movement of his van outside Hawkins Newspaper at lunchtime.
They thought no one knew until they caught you. Watching them make out around the back of the club at midnight, your cheeks flushed red with embarrassment at the idea of being caught.
When you thought Eddie would spit and be annoyed, he walked forward with curiosity. In an oddly curious manner as he sort you out, you had always found him attractive.
“Find something you like the look of?” He peered down at you, your fingers were in your mouth as you gazed at him.
“Uh Huh” you mumbled against your nails, your eyes flickered to Nancy who was standing against the wall with a smirk.
“Use your words little one” he stepped even closer, grazing your skin with his fingers.
Watching as you quivered st his presence, he seemed to be enjoying himself. Getting off on taunting you, knowing that you would do anything for him. He knew of you, he had noticed you around town.
Your curious eyes and oversized jumpers, he thought you cute. Maybe even more. As he tugged at your arm, you felt him lean down closer. His face was inches away from yours when your fingers slipped out your mouth and he replaced them with his lips.
Pushing you against the nearest wall, his hands found your hair and tugged on loose strands. A soft moan escaped your mouth as he kissed you, heat settled between your legs. Gaining two heartbeats as his hands moved down your body, grasping your thighs and grinding his hand against your jeans.
Your moans picked up, switching between pants. As you reached the edge, very close to your orgasm. Eddie removed his hands and whispered into your ear.
“Be a good girl for us and wait for me and Nance before closing. You will be rewarded” he chuckled, nibbling on your ear before winking joining Nancy who winked at you.
Catching your breath, you fell against the brick wall in shock. Your clit throbbed, desiring more friction as you thought of Eddie. As the door to the loud obnoxious club opened, you sighed and pulled yourself off the wall and headed inside.
You danced with your friends for what felt like hours until noticed the flashing toilet sign and disappeared away. You were surprised to see Nancy in there, tidying up her make up.
Upon seeing you, a mysterious smirk plastered her face. Watching you as you disappeared into a stall for a few moments before reappearing, her facial expressions were exactly the same.
You were nervous as you stood at the basin next to her, you could smell her aroma clearly. She moved suddenly before hovering behind you, staring at you in the mirror. You shuddered as she spun you around, your hands dripping with water as she pried your legs apart.
“I can’t wait till the club shuts tonight to taste you” she growled, dropping to her knees.
She made you nervous, her glances across the crowded dance-floor. The winks as she walked out of shops in town. But she made your curious, she had been with Robin for a while before they graduated and her and Eddie rekindled their ‘friendship’.
You had always fancied her but never found the courage to tell her and as she pulled your panties aside you quivered. Knowing that you could never find that courage as she dive her fingers cool fingers inside your wet hot pussy.
Stroking between your folds as you struggled to find something to grasp onto, landing on strands of hair you pulled with every moment of her fingers.
Her fingers teased your hole as her tongue toyed with your clit, soft moans escaped your mouth as your hips bucked against her face.
You had never felt pleasure like this before, you weren’t exactly a virgin. You had played with yourself before, made yourself squirt more than once but this was something different.
It shot tingles throughout your body, your moans grew louder and louder with every moment. Her fingers were slowly thrusting against your wet pussy, feeling the need to ride against them. Your hips shuddered as you tugged onto her hair even harder.
Moans vibrated against your clit as she moaned, quickening her pace inside your pussy until she felt you clench around her. Edging closer and closer to your orgasm, your eyes rolling back aggressively as you felt yourself topple over the edge and cum.
Mumbling “fuck Nancy” under your breath, powered her to move her face and fingers quicker against your pulsating pussy until your body was twitching quickly.
“You’re going to make me squirt” you whines loudly, panting to catch your breath.
Your eyes were wide as you gasped heavily, the pleasure was so intense as you listened to the sounds of her fingers thrusting roughly inside you. The sounds of her mouth sucking on your throbbing your clit as her tongue licked your juices up.
“Cum for me baby” her voice was muffled as she coached you closer to your second orgasm.
Groaning loudly, you shut your eyes tightly as you were unable to focus on anything else but your second orgasm. Squirting hard, coating her face, fingers and the surrounding area until you were panting heavily from overstimulation.
Nancy smirked, removing her fingers from inside you and shoving them down your throat. Making you taste yourself until they were clean, she was still on her knees as she licked the dripping remnants into her mouth.
With a peck on the cheek, she turned towards the door before speaking.
“Catch you later baby” with a lick of her lips, she disappeared into back out into the noisy club.
Leaving you to catch your breath, your body was shaking from both your orgasms and shock. Her eyes burned into your mind, her voice echoed in your ears.
The club couldn’t shut quick enough, you were hot and bothered as your mind flashed to Nancy and Eddie. Desperately needing another release, as you stood at the bar you scanned the room to find them. Your eyes met with our couples as they danced until you landed on them.
Eddie’s arm was around her, whispering something into her ear as she stared right at you. Noticing that she motioning for you to join them, biting your lip you paid for your drink and floated across to them.
You watched as they slide apart and he patted a seat in between them, gulping you nervously laughed as you moved yourself to sit with them.
“So i heard about you and Nancy in the bathroom sweetheart” Eddie was smirking at you, his hand was trailing up your inner thigh.
He was enjoying watching you twitch at his touch, his breath was hot against your face as he continued to talk.
“I think that we should leave now, all we want is to play with you” he looked down at you, those beautiful brown orbs staring through you. Waiting for answer.
Unable to muster up anything more than a nod, you looked between them. They smirked and began to rise from the booth, taking your hands together.
It was cooler and quieter outside, you were able to breathe as they led you towards Eddie’s van. Nancy sat in the front with Eddie whilst you watch them exchange glances and hot kisses.
Your house was quiet when Eddie pulled up, your parents were out of town. Allowing you free reign, your hands shook as you unlocked the door and invited them in.
Attempting some small chit chat, you realized that they were not looking for it and their hands tightly fumbled around your waist. Pulling you towards your sunken living room, the rectangular conversation pit in the centre made Eddie’s eye light up.
Turning to you, he kissed your neck roughly before whispering,
“Go lie in the centre, take your clothes off but leave your underwear on” his voice was hot and sexy, listening to him. You left them together.
Your eyes focused on them both as you positioned yourself comfortably on the sofa. Slowly taking off your clothes as they made out, occasionally turning to look at you until you were lying in front of them in your underware.
Eddie bit his lip, devouring the sight of you. Practically crawling to be near you, his hair was flowing behind him as he pried your legs apart, His breath was shuddering against your skin, his lips were rough as he kissed down your body.
Allowing him complete control, he pulled down your cotton panties and practically melted as you lay there half-naked. Leaving no time for you to adjust, his head was buried between your legs and he played with your wet pussy.
Toying with your clit, teasing your entrance with his fingers. His eyes flickered to Nancy who had appeared to your right, she was naked and you were captivated.
''Would you let Nance, have a ride on your pretty face?'' Eddie cooed as his finger slid inside you.
Gasping at the sensation, your lips pressed together as you nodded. Keeping your eyes on Eddie as he dove another finger inside you, his face edging closer to swollen clit was dying for attention.
''Good girl'' his voice was hot as he blew air on your clit and smirking when you whimpered.
Nancy lowered herself in front of you, nerves shot through you as her wet pussy came in contact with your mouth. But Eddie's lips began sucking on your clit at the right moment, shifting you away from your nerves.
It felt good, something that you had never even dreamed of experiencing.
Nancy’s moaned filled the rooms, Eddie’s fingers slipped inside you as his tongue played with your clit.
As your own tongue licked and sucked Nancy’s clit, you decided to play with her hole. She squealed at the sudden sensation but began grinding her hips harder when you slipped a finger inside.
She enjoyed it. You enjoyed it.
Grinding herself to the edge of orgasm before cumming hard onto your face, you removed your fingers and eat all her cum from around her pussy and clit.
She twitched on your face as you reached sensitive parts of her body, her nails dug into your skin.
Once every bit of cum was licked up, you pulled her in for a kiss.
Unsure where the sudden confidence boost came from you but you were both loving it.
“I have never came that fast before” Nancy giggled and blushed.
Feeling flattered you just smiled at her, Eddie removed himself from your pussy.
“Nance, I want you to ride her.” He smirked, clearly loving to be demanding.
You stayed in your position on the bed, watching as Nancy climbed on top of you.
The moment her clit met yours, you shivered. Feeling rather sensitive from not cumming, Nancy listened to Eddies further demands.
She began to ride you, clit bumping together as she leant down to kiss you. It was hot.
Eddie removed his fingers from deep inside you, his cock lined up until it thrust inside.
He was stretching you out as Nancy bounced on top, he was bent backwards. Fucking you hard and fast.
Watching both your cunts slid together as his cock hit your walls, you were quivering as you felt yourself cum.
Nancy was gripping onto your arms as her clit trembled against yours, Eddie’s cock was deep inside you.
His tip was leaking with pre cum as you squirted over both of them.
“Hm’m so close” he moaned to both of you.
As Nancy came against your pussy, she spun around as you lay and watched them.
She kissed him, still grinding against you as he quickened the pace. Moaning into her mouth, as his cock twitched.
She was talking into his ear, encouraging him as she moved with you. Moaning with him until he shuddered, sliding out of you.
He came over both your soaking wet pussies, coating them with his cum as he panted.
Rubbing it closer to each others entrances until neither of you could take it, Nancy came for the second time.
You relaxed into the bed as Eddie, pushing Nancy onto you. Bodies sweaty and hot, he kissed both of you sloppily.
Mumbling the words, “my girls” into your mouths before making you both kiss.
It was the best thing you’d ever experienced, you were hoping for more.
You’d been sitting on Lando’s couch for an hour - the movie long forgotten, the pizza cold, your thoughts running laps faster than one of his qualifying sessions. He was lounging beside you, hoodie half-zipped, curls messy from where you’d been absentmindedly running your fingers through them.
You should’ve felt relaxed.
Instead, your heart was pounding so loud it drowned out the TV.
"Lando," you said quietly, fingers twisting the edge of the blanket.
He turned to you immediately, smile soft. "Yeah? Everything okay?"
You took a breath - deep, steady, but trembling anyway. "There’s something I want to tell you. It’s not bad, just… something I’ve been meaning to say for a while."
His brows furrowed, but he didn’t look worried - just patient. "Okay. You can tell me anything, you know that."
You nodded, staring at your hands. "I’m bisexual."
There was a second of silence - not heavy or shocked, just still. Then Lando’s voice came, calm and careful. "Okay."
You looked up, a little unsure. "Okay?"
He nodded, the corners of his mouth tugging upward. "Yeah. Okay. Thanks for telling me." He hesitated, then tilted his head a bit, curiosity flickering in his eyes. "Can I ask… how long you’ve known?"
You exhaled, shoulders relaxing just a little. "A few years, I guess. I always kind of knew, but I didn’t really understand it until recently. I just..." You smiled faintly. "I didn’t want it to sound like it changed how I feel about you, because it doesn’t. At all."
Lando shifted closer, hand finding yours. "Hey," he murmured. "I didn’t think that for a second."
You smiled, a mix of relief and nervous energy still buzzing in your chest. "I was just scared you’d think I was… I don’t know, confused? Or that maybe it meant I wasn’t as serious about us."
He squeezed your hand, eyes warm and steady. "You’re allowed to know who you are. That doesn’t make you confused, it makes you honest."
You laughed softly, half out of disbelief, half out of affection. “You make it sound so simple.”
He grinned, thumb brushing your knuckles. "That’s because it is simple. You’re my girlfriend. You like me. And also girls. Cool. I mean..." he laughed, scratching the back of his neck, "...that’s literally all it changes, right?"
You nodded, the tension in your chest finally easing. "Yeah. That’s all."
He leaned in, pressing a gentle kiss to your forehead. "Good. Then we’re fine. Actually, better than fine. I’m proud of you for telling me."
You blinked, feeling your throat tighten just a little. "You are?"
"Yeah." His smile softened again, eyes crinkling. "Takes guts to say something that personal. I love that you trust me enough to."
You rested your head on his shoulder, the quiet comfort of his heartbeat settling you in ways words couldn’t.
And for the first time in days, maybe weeks, you felt completely - finally - seen.

Word Count - 10k
As you finish putting your earrings in, you pause and look at yourself in the mirror. You look good tonight, you think. Your dress hugs your figure and accentuates your breasts and ass, but in a classy way that’s fitting for the charity fundraiser that the two of you are going to tonight. Your jewellery and makeup is much the same. Classy. Nothing too flashy. You wonder if Bruce will even notice the effort you have put in to make yourself look nice. He hasn’t the last few time. Hell, the last time he took you out to an event like this, he not only barely payed any attention to you, but he completely vanished from the venue. Leaving you alone and having to call Alfred to pick you up and take you back to your apartment.
Though Alfred had done a good job that night to try and hide it, you had still been able to tell he was absolutely fuming at Bruce. As are you each time that you think about it. Though you do have to keep in mind that he has been very stressed recently in regards to his company. While he hasn’t told you exactly what’s going on, you know it’s left him with a lot on his mind, a mountain of paperwork and has led to him being forgetful. You’re positive that it will all pass once he’s figured things out and then everything between you and him will go right back to the way that they were before.
Back when he would text you while in the middle of a meeting because he was thinking about and missing you. Or when he would call you, usually in the middle of the night, because he was miles away in another country and desperately wanted to hear the sound of your voice. And there were the times when you and him would curl up on a couch and watch a movie for date night instead of going out to some restaurant, away from the constant flashing of cameras that often left you becoming overwhelmed very quickly. Or there was that time…
Your train of thought is broken by a knock against the door of the en-suite. It’s probably Bruce wondering what’s taking you so long to get ready.
“Yes?” you call out.
“Master Bruce was wondering when you would be down.” It’s Alfred… Wait… Alfred? Bruce couldn’t even be bothered to come up and check on you himself? You push the thought away.
“I’ll just be a couple of minutes!” you call back.
“Of course, dear. I’ll let him know.”
With Alfred now gone, you turn you attention to the two bottles of perfume on the counter. One of the bottles is an expensive perfume that Bruce bought you for your birthday. It’s not your favourite scent in the world, but it was a gift from him and you have yet to wear it. The other is the perfume that you wore on the night that you and him finally went all of the way. Maybe if you wear that one he might actually pay you attention. The scent of it making him remember that night hopefully. After a moment of debating you decide to go for the latter. Tonight you wish to stay hopeful.
Once you have spritzed the perfume onto your pulse points, you grab your clutch and make your way out of the en-suite and bedroom and to where Bruce is waiting for you in the foyer. As you make your way down the stairs you expect him to look up at the sound of your heels clicking on the wood. Instead his eyes remain glued to his phone screen like a teenager; his fingers typing out a message just as fast as well.
You do your best to hide your disappoint, keeping your face blank, but it must have shown briefly because, as you reach the bottom of the stairs, Alfred suddenly clears his throat. The sound catches Bruce’s attention and he finally looks up from his phone. Before he’s allowed to say a word though, Alfred is speaking.
“You look lovely, dear,” he tells you. His compliment has you smiling. At least someone noticed.
By now, Bruce’s phone is back in his pocket and he’s stepping toward you. He checks you out, his eyes lingering on your breasts a little longer than is gentlemanly. His smile that genuine one he only ever gives you.
“Absolutely beautiful,” he says, his hand coming to rest beneath your chin and tilting your head up a little. “Aren’t I the luckiest man in the world?” You can feel your cheeks heating up at his words and the way he’s looking at you, as he breathes in your perfume. He presses a kiss to your lips. It’s a light one so that he doesn’t end up ruining your lipstick. “Come on. We’re going to be late.” He pulls away and takes your hand in his.
You and Bruce grab your coats and say goodnight to Alfred, who wishes you both a pleasant night. He leads you down the stairs to the car already parked out front.
The drive is a silent one. Neither of you saying a word nor him even bothering to put some music on. It has you yearning for the days when you both couldn’t stop talking, discovering all of these new things about each other or even discussing how you’re going to sneak away from the event at some point. Usually so that you could do other things together. And then there were the times where the speakers of whatever car you were in at the time would be blasting music as you and him sing along loudly to whatever song was playing.
Not being able to listen to the silence any longer, you decide to break it yourself.
“What’s the charity that’s being supported tonight?” you ask him. You don’t remember him ever mentioning a name, just that there was a fundraiser.
“Uh, it’s something to do with endangered animals,” he replies.
“What sort of animals?” There’s so many of them this day and age that are in trouble and you doubt that tonight is going to cover every last species.
“I believe it’s for big cats, but I honestly can’t remember. We’ll find out for sure once we get there.”
“Right. Of course.”
The car once again falls into silence as you struggle to think of what else to talk about. What even is there for you to say? How that was the longest you have spoken to him without his phone ringing and him walking away to answer it? And it’s not like Bruce is trying to fill the silence either. Is it just as awkward for him? Or does he simply not care?
You turn your attention to your window, watching as the city passes by as he drives. Silently, you continue to hope that things will get better once you arrive and he is no longer focused on getting to the venue.
Upon arriving, Bruce does help you out of the car and keeps you shielded from the vultures who are sat outside of the venue, waiting. The bright flashes from their cameras is blinding as they do their best to surround both of you, making large dots dance in front of your eyes. You’re sure that you would be stumbling blind if it wasn’t for him keeping you close and guiding you toward the entrance. Even after you both are inside the building and the doors are closed behind with security making sure that the paparazzi cannot follow, he keeps his arm linked with yours. Despite the harrowing experience with the paps that has left your heart hammering against your ribcage, not once does Bruce ask if you are okay. Perhaps he assumes that since you have been with him for the past year and a half that it no longer fazes you? You honestly can’t imagine it ever not fazing you, how invasive those people can be.
You are about to say something to him, ask him why he cares enough to try and shield you, but not enough to actually check on you, yet you’re not given a chance to as you’re already stepping into the main hall. All eyes are on you both. Bruce is already smiling that dazzling billionaire smile of his and you quickly follow suit, shoving your irritation away. The last thing you need is headlines about how pissy you look.
Your arms stay linked together for the majority of the night. Though they might as well not have been considering he spends the night basically ignoring you. You sip on champagne while Bruce talks to men who have no interest in the good cause that they are all suppose there for and would rather try and get him to invest in their company.
It’s not like you expect him to have his tongue down your throat (though that did happen a few times very early on in your relationship). And it’s not like you’re just standing around expecting him to pick up that something is wrong simply by your mood. You’ve tried talking to him, but each time he dismisses you. You’re honestly starting to feel like the only reason he brought you is for you to be his arm candy. The thought has you wanting to be anywhere, but here with him. And you would call Alfred and leave if you thought that you wouldn’t end up on the front page news thanks to the cockroaches sitting in wait outside.
Even with that said, you still don’t want to be around him right now and this is a big hotel. There’s got to be somewhere for you to retreat to for a little while. Some sort of garden or courtyard perhaps? You’ll find out once you slip out of the ballroom.
You pull away from him, unhooking your arm from his, as you tell him that you need to get some air. He doesn’t look you, not even a glance, as he replies with an “okay” and continues talking to the three men in front of him. As you make your way through the ballroom, you place your half finished glass of champagne onto the the tray of a passing waiter and leave the room through the nearest exit.
You wander the halls of the hotel for a little while, following the various gold plated signs that eventually lead you outside to the flower garden. A majority of the flowers are in bloom, leaving a very floral and sweet scent in the air and there are lamps in the ground between the flowerbeds, lighting up the pathway for you. You follow it until you reach a bench, where you decide to stop and take a seat.
It’s nice and quiet out here. The perfect place for you to be left alone with your thoughts. All of them about Bruce. You honestly do not even know when things started to actually change. It’s like one morning you woke up and he went from being totally and completely head over heels for you to not giving a damn about you. It leaves you wondering if the girls, who had approached you shortly after your relationship became public knowledge, were right. Has he grown bored of you? Is he really only keeping you around while he looks for someone new?
What if he’s already found that someone new and is with them on the nights that he doesn’t come back to the manor?
Almost as soon as the thought has entered your mind, you’re shoving it away again. No. No! You know Bruce. You’ve seen the way that he looks in disgust at the people in these rich people circles who are cheating on their spouses. You’ve listened to how he talks about them, a sharp edge to his voice. He hates cheaters so why would he turn around and do that to you? No. Absolutely not. He would never. Maybe… maybe this is just the end of what they call the “honeymoon phase”? At least, that’s got to be part of it. And you cannot forget how busy he is. But the more that you think about it, the more you think about these last few months, the more the doubt starts to trickle in. What if you’re wrong? What if you don’t know him like you think you do?
The more that you think about it, the more upset you become. So much so that you can feel tears threatening to spill, but as much as you want them to fall, you can’t. You’ll ruin your makeup if you do and as upset as you are, you don’t want that. It took forever and you do look really good tonight. Not that the man you got all dressed up for even cares about the effort that you put into your look tonight. Other than back at the manor, he has barely even looked at you.
And that thought alone is enough to finally get the tears rolling. After all what the hell does it even matter if he doesn’t care?
As you cry, you don’t even hear her. You don’t hear her heels against the stone pathway that leads to the bench you’re sitting on. You don’t even feel her as she sits down next to you. You only become aware of her when her hand comes in contact with your back and she rubs your back. You don’t jump at the sudden contact, you’re just confused as you look up at her, brow furrowed.
You go to speak. You’re not sure what, maybe to apologise for the state you’re in? You honestly don’t know, but it doesn’t actually matter as she doesn’t let you say anything, shushing you softly. The woman pulls a handkerchief from her purse and uses it to dab away your mascara filled tears. As she does that, through your tear blurred vision, you do your best to make out her appearance. Perhaps you know her?
She has striking green eyes, almost like a cat’s, and long, curly black hair. She’s gorgeous. That much is clear to you, even in your heartbroken state. And you’re certain that you do not know her. You would remember if you did.
“Are you okay?” she asks.
You shake your head, not trusting that the second you try to speak that you won’t turn into a babbling mess as your tears start to fall again. And it’s not really fair to burden a stranger with all of the reasons why you think that the man you’re in love with likely doesn’t love you. The look she gives you is one full of sympathy, which only makes you feel worse.
“A woman as beautiful as you shouldn’t be crying over a man like him,” she tells you.
“But things were so good in the beginning,” you say. All reservations that you had a moment ago about not burdening a stranger with your problems are suddenly out of the window. As you talk you half expect her to come up with an excuse to leave, most people would, but she doesn’t. Instead she stays and listens. The more you tell her the more annoyed she seems to get, but it doesn’t feel like it is directed at you. More likely she is getting annoyed at your boyfriend. Hell, now that you’re talking about it, and therefore thinking about it more, you are starting to get annoyed at him yourself as well.
“I’m sorry. That’s a whole load of information that you really did not need. I haven’t asked you your name.” And now you’re completely embarrassed. So caught up into your own shit that you completely forgot about basic manners. She doesn’t seem to have minded though. She smiles softly.
“Selina Kyle,” she introduces herself. “And you are?”
You introduce yourself. For some reason her name strikes a cord of familiarity with you. It takes you a second for you to know where. Tonight’s fundraiser, of course! She’s the one who organised tonight; you remember seeing her name on the notice board just outside of the ballroom. She must be so busy tonight yet she’s still taken time to make sure you are okay and she doesn’t even know you? It has you feeling rather touched.
“We should probably be making our way back,” she begins, “but first let me help fix your makeup,” she offers as she reaches into her purse.
After she helps you fix up your makeup, making it look you had never cried to begin with, you and Selina make your ways back to the hotel’s ballroom. Not long after you have reentered the room you lose sight of her. Not that you expect her to spend the rest of the night with you. You are strangers, after all, and she is busy. Instead you set yourself your own mission; finding the bar. You don’t care to look for Bruce. He didn’t bother coming to look for you despite how long you were gone for, so why should you look for him?
It doesn’t take you long to find the bar. You order your drink of choice and take a seat. Now that you’re here, your only interest is drinking as much as the bartender will allow.
As soon as the two of you re-enter the ballroom, Selina leaves your side and quickly, but gracefully moves through the room. Her eyes scan the area as she moves, looking for someone in particular.
Honestly she can’t believe him. Actually, maybe she can. This is Bruce after all. It still infuriates her. How is it that he has a beautiful woman like you in his life, who very clearly loves him, and yet he treats you like you are just another one of those models he used to “date”? And, from what you have told her, things weren’t all this way.
She can easily think of what’s changed. It’s the exact same thing that led to her leaving, several years ago. No matter what. One way or another, Batman will always end up taking priority over everyone else. Clearly, he needs a serious wakeup call.
It doesn’t take her long to spot him. He’s with several other men and honestly looks extremely bored. Yet he would instead give them his time than give it to you. She scoffs and rolls her eyes. Typical.
Bruce takes notice of her quickly, doing a double take as his eyes widen for a brief moment. He regains his composure, the shock disappearing as his eyes narrow and his brow furrows, his lips set in a grim thin line. He’s not happy to see her and, quite frankly, she’s not too pleased to see him either. A cat does not easily forget those who have wronged her.
She had been hoping that she would not have to interact him at all tonight. Simply take his money for her charity and then leave this city once more. Maybe forever. But things rarely go to plan in a city like Gotham.
Selina raises an eyebrow at him before gesturing with her head for him to follow her. She doesn’t look back, doesn’t wait for confirmation that he will. She knows he will follow. His curiosity always gets the better of him whenever she’s involved. Almost like it’s a law of life like gravity.
She weaves her way through the crowd once more, leaving the ballroom behind her. She decides to head back toward the hotel’s flower garden. It’s the perfect place to talk away from he nosey busybodies that make up Gotham’s higher society.
“Hello, Bruce,” she says, turning around to face him.
He scoffs. “Really? After all of this time that’s all you’ve got to…” he shakes his head. “I’m already with someone else. I–”
“Oh I know,” she cuts him off. “I’ve already met her. She’s beautiful, it’s just a shame that she’s so sad.”
Bruce frowns, an eyebrow raised. “What are you talking about? She’s fine.”
“She’s not, but you would know that if you were actually paying attention.” Selina steps toward him and leans in close. “Let me put it this way, clean up your act and start paying attention to her or I will.”
It’s toward the end of the night when you finally see Bruce again. You feel all warm from the alcohol running through your veins and each step that you take isn’t very coordinated, especially in these ridiculous heels.
“There you are,” he says as he approaches you. You’re currently using a pillar to steady yourself after almost tripping over your own feet. He looks troubled, but you don’t care enough to ask him what’s wrong. As of right now you really don’t see why you should. “Come on.” He links his arm with yours again, bringing you close to him to support you. “Let’s get back to the manor.”
You follow him back to the car. You’re so in your own head, focused on how good the drinks have made you feel, that you don’t even notice that there are barely any paparazzi around now, as he helps you into the car.
Much like the drive to the hotel, the drive back is silent. Of course you really don’t think you can hold a conversation properly any how. You’re sure to slur your words and, damn, your eyelids feel so heavy right now. It wouldn’t hurt to close them for a few minutes. Your last thought is how you’re going to have a killer headache in the morning.
The cafe had been busy when you had first entered, but the more that time passes and the lunch rush ends, the emptier the place becomes. You were suppose to meet Bruce for lunch, but while you showed up, he hasn’t. He hasn’t even bothered to reply to any of the texts you have sent him either. Instead they have all been left on read. You put his contact on mute. If he can’t be bothered to even reply to you then you can’t be bothered to talk to him full stop.
What makes it all worse is that, the day after the fundraiser, when you were somewhat recovered from your hangover, he had promised. He had promised that things would change and that you were important to him. And things had changed… For about a week. Once again you are left wondering whether or not the man that you love even loves you anymore.
The looks of pity and sympathy the other customers keep sending your way have you wanting to disappear forever. It’s humiliating. You decide that, as soon as you are done with your hot drink and food, you’re going straight back to your apartment and never leaving it again. You do your best to finish your drink and food as quickly as possible while also trying to not draw anymore attention to yourself.
As you are finishing up your drink, the chair across from you is suddenly pulled out and a woman sits down. Despite getting drunk, you recognise her instantly. Selina Kyle, from the fundraiser. Even now you still feel embarrassed about that night, crying and venting to a complete stranger about your relationship issues.
“Sorry I took so long, traffic was a nightmare!” She says it so casually, like she is the one who you were meeting today. She gives you a smile and wink. She doesn’t have to do this, hell you don’t even know why she is doing this, but you play along with her anyway.
“It’s fine. You’re here now,” you reply.
You briefly get up from the table to get another drink. After you have sat back down, the two of you beginning to talk. It starts off as basic small talk. The weather, the city’s current state, the money she had raised through the fundraiser and the good it was going to do for the big cats. She even leans across the table to show you pictures of her many, many cats. All of whom are, of course, utterly adorable.
As you take a sip of your drink, she asks you the question that you have been waiting for from the moment that she sat down at your table.
“That boyfriend of yours was supposed to meet you, wasn’t he?” she asks you. Though, you suspect, that she already knows before you answer her.
“Is it that obvious?”
She nods and, immediately, you want to disappear completely once more. She regards you for a moment, before speaking once again.
“Forget about him,” she tells you. “At least for tonight.”
“If I’m forgetting about him for tonight, what will I be doing instead?”
“You’ll be coming out with me to have some fun.”
The way that she says it. Like they are plans that have already been made and you are not allowed to back out. You don’t want to anyway. It sounds like fun, a night out with Selina, leaving Bruce alone and wondering where you are for once. It’s the least of what he deserves. Maybe it will be the wake up call he needs. And if not… You don’t want to think about that right now. He’s pissed you off, but he is still the man you love and, even with the way he has been treating you recently, you still cannot imagine a life where he isn’t in it.
So, you agree to going out with her and you exchange phone numbers. For the first time in a while you were actually looking forward to something.
The nightclub is loud, the base thrumming through you and you cannot hear yourself think. The place is packed and so many bodies close together has you feeling hot, and you haven’t even done any dancing yet!
These types of places are not usually your scene. You find them far too loud and there are far too many people around, but it’s hard to focus on all that with the woman in front of you. Selina’s outfit and makeup is casual, a strapless black top, jeans, a simple cat eye and red lipstick, yet she is easily the hottest person in the room. Sure, you’re in a committed relationship with Bruce, but you’re not blind and you can appreciate still. You are sure that he does.
She grabs your hand and leads you through the crowd and toward the bar. Much like the rest of the club, there is quite a few people around the bar. Definitely not enough room for the both of you to approach, so you tell her your preferred drink to order and she disappears amongst the crowd to get it.
You’re not entirely sure what to do with yourself, while you wait for her. Which has you feeling rather awkward. It doesn’t really help that people keep looking over at you. They’re likely just checking you out, but, standing here by yourself in your own head, you start wondering whether or not they are just judging you and the outfit that you have picked out for tonight. You aren’t left to fall down that rabbit hole for long though as Selina repappears, drinks in hand.
You do your best to shout over the music to thank her, but after the third time she finally moves in close to you. So close that her body is now touching yours, which leaves your heart thumping hard against your ribcage. Now that you have been able to thank her, she somehow moves closer, bringing her lips up to your ear. You can feel her breath fanning across you skin, making goosebumps raise across your skin, despite the heat of the nightclub.
“If you want to thank me, relax and have some fun.”
You almost laugh at her words. Is your nervousness that obvious? You had been hoping that you would be able to hide it more from her, but it seems she doesn’t miss a thing. Your nervousness doesn’t last. With the alcohol of a couple more drinks flowing through you, any doubts or anxiety you had before are quickly forgotten about. As are any thoughts of Bruce.
Hours fly by without you noticing as you dance and drink with Selina. Your laughter is loud, though still drowned out by the base, but she hears it easily enough. The green of her eyes seems to almost sparkle each time the neon lights hit them. The same way that you remember /his/ eyes lighting up when he first met you. Though you’re sure that it’s just the alcohol making you see things. She knows that you have a boyfriend and there’s not possible way she could be interested in you like that. (Though there had been a time you had thought the exact same when it had come to Bruce).
As the night draws on and the club starts to empty once curfew has hit, instead of finding your way back to your apartment, you and Selina find your way in a diner. With how late it is, the diner is mostly empty. The only other two customers there being a couple of cops taking a short break on their night shift. She leads you to the booth furthest from the cops, side eyeing them like she expects them to do something.
The waitress brings over a couple of menus. You thank her and take one of the menus while Selina declines, ordering only a coffee. After looking over the menu, along with your own coffee, you also order a burger and fries. While you did eat before coming out tonight, all of the dancing has left you absolutely starving.
While you wait, you decide to have a quick look at your phone. You quickly wish that you hadn’t. There’s dozens of messages, voice mails and missed calls from Bruce. He is very obviously worried and it has you feeling guilty. Maybe you should give him a call and let him know that you are okay?
“Your boyfriend?” Selina asks, breaking the silence that had fallen.
You nod. “Yeah. Maybe I should give him a call,” you say. “He seems really worried.”
“Does he call you when you send texts worried about him?”
You stop to think for a moment. “No,” you finally reply. “He usually only sends a short text.” Almost immediately, you understand what she is getting at. He doesn’t call you, only texts. So that’s what you do. A short text that reads “I’m fine. Still out with a friend.” Then you turn off your phone’s screen and return your attention to Selina.
Within that time, the waitress returns with yours and Selina’s coffees and your burger and fries. You both thank the waitress before returning to your conversation. You talk quietly, mostly about tonight. Despite your originally anxiety about tonight, you did end up having a lot of fun that you otherwise wouldn’t of had, had she not met you in that coffee shop and suggested it. As you talk, between taking bites of your burger, she steals a few of your fries, causing you to smile and shake your head.
“If you’re hungry, why didn’t you order your own fries?”
She shrugs. “They taste better when they’re not actually yours.”
Her reply makes you laugh and nod in agreement. After all, you are guilty of having done the same thing a few times, in the past.
The food and coffee does a good job at sobering you up. Not that you had been super drunk. Certainly not nearly as much as you had been after that fundraiser. Once you’re both finished, you reach for your bag to pay, but Selina beats you to it.
“You can pay next time,” she tells you.
You raise your eyebrow at her. “There’s going to be a next time, is there?”
“Of course there is.” She says it so matter of factly, like it’s already a done deal despite there not even being a discussion. Not that you mind. You would be more than happy to come out with her again.
With the food and drinks paid for, you and Selina leave the diner. Her driver is already waiting out front for both of you, ready to drive and drop you off at your apartment. You thank her again for suggesting that you go out with her tonight and that you definitely wouldn’t mind if there was a “next time”. You both say goodnight to each other and you make your out of the car and into the building.
Your apartment is pitch black and you fumble in the dark for a few seconds before your fingers finally find the switch. Despite the fact that you were expecting it, you still wince as the sudden brightness of the lights blinds you for a moment. You’re actually surprised to find your apartment so empty, you would have thought that Bruce would drop by unannounced, he has a key and you remember the endless messages and voicemails left by him, that you saw just a couple of hours ago. You haven’t checked them since then. Maybe you should do so now, but first your feet are killing you and you desperately need to get your shoes off.
With your shoes finally off, you collapse onto the couch. You pull your phone out of your bag and have a look at your messages. Since the one text you sent while at the diner, he’s only sent you one other text.
”Why didn’t you let me know? I had something planned tonight.”
“Why didn’t you tell me you weren’t going to make it to lunch?”
As soon as you hit send, you decide to put your phone on do not disturb mode. You will deal with Bruce in the morning. Now that you are home, the high of the night is starting to wear off and you are starting to feel really tired. All you want to do is get your makeup off, get into your pyjamas, curl up and go to sleep. So that’s exactly what you do.
In the weeks that follow, you end up spending a lot of time with Selina. She takes you to the other nightclubs that are dotted around the city and you often meet up for lunch. You learn a lot about each other during these lunches. Like how she came to have so many cats and the passion she has in the various causes that she supports. In turn you tell her about your own work. As you talk you honestly expect her to lose interest and not pay any attention. You expect various hmms and huhs and to see her looking either at her phone or at something else in the room instead of you, but it doesn’t happen. The entire time her attention is always focused on you and she actually asks you questions. You have got so used to being ignored that you had forgotten what it was like to actually be listened it.
It’s not like Bruce didn’t ever not listen to you though. He did, in the beginning at least. But like everything else, with the honeymoon period being over, he just doesn’t do it anymore. All of it leaves you to continue to wonder whether or not he does actually love you or if you were just another “conquest” in a long line of them. But it’s not like you can even ask him. Right now Bruce is half a world away from you, thinking that sending endless gifts, flowers and chocolates is a good way to apologise. Which is not the effect you had hoped ignoring him that first night out would have. And even if he wasn’t half a world away from you, getting him to stay and talk to him is nearly impossible since you can never seem to hold his attention for more than a few seconds.
It’s late at night and you’re laying wide awake in bed. You can’t stop thinking about Bruce and not in the way that you used to. More like you have no idea how you even feel about him anymore. Do you love him? Before you had an immediate answer. “Yes, of course I do.”. Now though? You can’t answer it anymore because you don’t know what the answer is.
And then there’s Selina. The way that she looks at you from over the table during lunch or the way that she touches you when the two of you are dancing together. It makes it feel like there are butterflies fluttering around your stomach and your heart pounding hard against your ribcage. More often than not you have found yourself looking at or dreaming about her lips, wondering how it would feel for her to kiss you…
Almost as soon as the thoughts come to you, you shove them away. They really aren’t helpful to your current dilemma when it comes to you trying to figure out how you feel about Bruce.
You groan and bury your head in your pillow. When did things in your life become so complicated?
“You seem distracted,” Selina says. You look up from the plate where you have just been pushing the food around, like a child.
“Sorry,” you reply. She invited you out to dinner a few weeks ago, at one of the fanciest restaurants in Gotham and you’ve spent the entire time distracted because you can’t stop thinking about Bruce and how you feel about him. It’s been plaguing your mind for a few weeks.
“What’s wrong?” she asks.
“I…” While you have thought the words a couple of times now, you don’t think you are ready to say them out loud. Especially in public with so many eavesdroppers. You shake your head. “It doesn’t matter.”
Selina frowns, clearly not believing you, but she doesn’t push it. Which you are thankful for. Saying those words out loud will make them really real and you don’t know if you are ready for that. How did the relationship you had once been sure would last forever end up turning into this?
For the rest of dinner, you do your best to push away any and all thoughts about Bruce and your relationship with him. He will be back from his business trip by the end of the week and you can deal with your feelings then. Though, as you eat and talk with Selina, it briefly occurs to you that he had once promised to take you, but never did. It leaves a somewhat bitter taste within your mouth.
You pull your coat close to your body as you and Selina leave behind the warmth of the restaurant and step out into the cold Gotham night. She links her arm with yours and pulls you close as you start walking down the street, back toward your apartment. It’s not a long walk, only a couple of blocks.
Selina knows why you have been distracted, not only tonight, but for the past couple of weeks. She’s felt the way you have responded to her touches and she’s seen the way that you have been looking at her. She has also seen how you are around Bruce now, during various events he’s taken you to. You are no longer looking at him, waiting for him to pay attention to you, instead you are looking around for her.
She hasn’t missed the way you react to her when she touches you, while you are dancing with her. And she certainly hasn’t missed the way that you look at her. Especially her lips.
She hasn’t made a move to kiss you yet though. While you’re drifting away from him, you haven’t actually broken up with Bruce yet. And you have so much inner turmoil right now she doesn’t think it’s fair to add on to it. But if you were to suddenly decide to kiss her, well, she certainly wouldn’t stop you. In fact, she would like it a lot.
Does Bruce even know? She wonders. He prides himself in being the world’s greatest detective yet, as far as she can see, he hasn’t caught on to the fact that you’re drifting away from him. Or that she is the cause.
At least he hasn’t caught on to it until tonight.
Out of the corner of her eye, high above on a rooftop on the opposite side of the street, she catches the sight of a large black mass billowing out into the wind. He lied to you. You have told her that he said he would be back at the end of the week, yet here he is. Using his mask to spy on you instead of the usual crimefighting he’s so passionate about.
Knowing that he’s watching, she pulls you closer to her.
“Are you okay?” you ask.
“It’s colder than I thought it would be tonight and you’re nice and warm.”
She knows that Bruce can hear the two of you speaking and she knows that it must be driving him crazy that he can’t just swoop down and interrupt. There’s people everywhere and, from what she can tell, you have no idea what he does when the sun sets. Things probably wouldn’t be as bad between you and him if you did know about his nightly activities. Or, maybe, if you did know, you would have already left him.
“Do you want to come in?” you ask her, once you and her have reached your apartment and you’re opening the door.
“Normally I’d love to, but something has come up with the land I was hoping to turn into a cat sanctuary,” she explains. Selina has her phone out, open on the email she received at the start of the week. It’s not a complete lie. She has hit issues involving that land, but she’s not dealing with it tonight.
Your face drops for a second before it’s quickly gone and replaced by a well practised understanding smile. Even the words you say “Of course, I understand,” sound rehearsed. He has done a number on you and it has her feeling a little guilty. How many times has he pulled this move on you? And now she’s doing the same thing. She steps forward and takes ahold of your hands.
“Are you free tomorrow?” she asks, “We could have lunch, maybe even check out that new jewel collection at the museum? You know, to make up for me having to suddenly leave.”
You look at her for a moment, like you weren’t expecting that. “Oh, I’ll have to check my schedule, but I think I should be able to. I’ll text you?”
“Of course.”
As soon as you are in your apartment and the door is shut, Selina is gone. Back out into the night, into her car and then back out into the night once more; wearing a completely different outfit. It’s not long before she is swinging high above the streets of Gotham, with a certain pointy eared man following after her.
It doesn’t take him long to catch up to her. She feels the change in the air around her as his hand closes around one of her arms and her world spins briefly as he grabs and spins her around, slamming her against a wall.
“What the hell do you think you’re doing Selina?” he growls, the white lenses of his cowl narrowed. His act might work on the common criminal, but it has never phased her one bit. Calmly, she removes his hands from her arms and pushes him away.
“I warned you, Bruce,” she says as she steps away from him, putting space between them. “Don’t you remember? I told you what would happen if you didn’t change how you were treating her."
“What? I didn’t think…”
“You never do. If it makes you feel any better she hasn’t kissed me yet. Maybe there’s still a chance for you, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.”
“Why?”
“It’s rather simple, you weren’t treating her correctly so I decided that I would.” Her shrug is causal, like it’s the most obvious thing in the world. Which it should be to the person who considers himself a detective. “And maybe it’ll make you think twice before you decide to treat another woman like this.”
She doesn’t wait for him to say anything. She walks to the edge of the roof, not even taking the time to look back like she once did a long time ago, and jumps. He doesn’t follow. Likely too caught up within his own inner turmoil about the revelations of tonight.
If she was anyone else, Selina wouldn’t be able to understand how or why you are still with him. But she does understand the how and why because she was you several years ago. It’s easy to get caught up in a man like Bruce Wayne. With his looks and the way he talks, that silver tongue of his. The way that he makes you feel like the most important person in the world just with one look.
Though, she really does wish that you would break up with him and soon.
This may have started out with her proving to you that you deserve so much better than putting up with the way that he treats you, but she has grown to like you. A lot. And she would rather see you with her than him. Though, she supposes, it’s only a matter of time before that happens. She simply needs to have some patience.
When you wake up it’s to a couple of texts from Bruce. Telling you that he’s coming home early and wants to meet for lunch. You reply telling him you can’t, you already have plans. So he offers dinner at the manor, away from the prying eyes of the public. Just you and him. Normally the premise of having a quiet and private night with him would excite you. Finally having him all too yourself far away from flashing cameras and gossipers. Instead, you don’t feel… anything. There’s no more looking forward to seeing him. No quicken of your heartbeat against your ribcage, or between your thighs, as you think of him. No wanting to blow off any other plans so that you can see him sooner. Hell, you don’t even want to see him. Not really.
As you sit there in bed, looking over the text messages again, those words comes back to you. The ones that you have been struggling to admit out loud. Though, with this newest revelation, you know that you need to and sooner rather than later. It’s not fair on either of you if you don’t.
Lunchtime feels like it takes forever to arrive as you do some chores around your apartment. You only just saw her last night, like every time, you can’t wait to see her again. And that excitement has the hours ticking by so slowly. There is a part of you that does have you pausing for a moment, wondering if this new feeling of excitement will end up the same. But you remind yourself she isn’t him.
You meet Selina at the same cafe that you had when she had suggested going out and giving Bruce a taste of his own medicine. You often meet her here. The place essential becoming your “spot”. Like how the park had once been yours and Bruce’s.
She’s already at the table, waiting for you. She has her hair done up in a bun and she’s wearing a red dress. You feel your heart almost skip a beat when you lay eyes on her. There’s already a latte on the table.
“I’m not late, am I?” you ask as you sit down. There had been some traffic on your way, but you had been sure you would still arrive on time.
“You’re on time,” she says before covering her mouth and yawning, “I didn’t get much sleep last night,” she explains. “I already ordered you your usual.”
“You’re not going to lose that land are you?”
“With all the work that I did last night, I would say that it’s safe and sound now,” she replies with a smile.
“That’s great news.”
She looks you over for a moment, her smile now gone and replaced by a small frown. “Something’s still bothering you,” she states.
“Bruce texted me this morning, he’s back early and wanted to meet for lunch, but I wasn’t about to cancel plans with you, so we’re having dinner instead tonight…”
“But you don’t want to go.”
“Is it that obvious?” You glance around the cafe, wondering if anyone is listening to your conversation. This city is filled with people who don’t know how to mind their own business. Especially when you are dating the renowned “son of Gotham”.
“I just… I know I have to face him because it’s unfair on both of us to keep this going, but I feel so guilty. He’s got no idea.”
“He would had he been paying attention,” she says. You can’t help, but agree.
Much to your disappointment the lunch goes by relatively quickly and before you know it your back at your apartment, getting ready for your date with Bruce. Just as your finishing up, there’s a knock at your door.
You answer the door to Bruce, who’s holding a bouquet of red roses and that genuine smile that he has only ever given you. You honestly weren’t expecting him to show up. Instead you had been expecting him to send Alfred.
“Hey, baby,” he greets you, using his free hand to pull you close and pressing a light kiss to your lips. Doing his best not to mess up your lipstick. “You look beautiful.”
The way he’s looking at you and kissing you has your heart skipping a beat. For weeks now this is all you have wanted. Your man looking at you like he actually loves you and wants you. All of his focus on you. But a voice in the back of your head reminds you of what he’s been like for weeks now and that he’s only acting like this now so that you don’t leave him. Chances are, as soon as he’s sure you won’t leave, things will go straight back to him ignoring you again until you think of leaving and the cycle will repeat.
You can’t go through that again. You won’t go through that again.
“I need a few more minutes,” you tell him as you let him inside of your apartment.
“Of course. I’ll put these in water for you?”
“You can just leave them on the side if you want. I’ll deal with them later,” you reply.
“It’s no trouble.”
You really wish that he would just leave the damn flowers alone. After tonight you’re only going to end up throwing them out. By the time you’re finished up and leaving the bedroom, he’s put the roses into a vase of water and set it onto your coffee table.
“Ready?”
The more that you look at him, the more you can see the man that you fell in love with to begin with. The way that he looks and talks to you, touching you, making you feel like the only woman in the world. But, once again, you can’t forget the way he’s been. Going from the most attentive boyfriend ever and then completely ignoring you like you aren’t his girlfriend, just another acquaintance he has on his arm and back again. And other than your heart skipping when he kissed you earlier you’re not feeling anything else. Your heart’s not even skipping anymore.
You haven’t eaten a thing all night. You usually love Alfred’s cooking, but tonight you have absolutely no appetite. It makes you feel worse than you already do, even if Bruce has barely touched his own food. You push your plate away from you.
“Sorry, I’m just not hungry,” you say.
“Same here,” he replies, shoving his own plate away. He sighs before taking a sip of his drink.
A long awkward silence falls between the two of you. Just as you start to think about saying something, perhaps the words that you have been too chicken to finally say, he breaks the silence.
“It’s over, isn’t it?”
“I’m sorry, Bruce. I just… I don’t love you anymore.”
“You have nothing to be sorry for. I’m the one who’s sorry. It’s my fault. Maybe if I had been more attentive or something. I don’t know. Maybe I could have saved this.”
“I still should have said something sooner.”
“Maybe, but at least this way I got to see you one more time.” Bruce gets up from his seat. “I’ll go get the car and I’ll drive you home.”
“I really am sorry,” Bruce says. His hand is cupping your face, thumb softly stroking your cheek. You expect him to kiss you for the last time, but he doesn’t. He pulls away, letting his hand fall away and back to his side. “Maybe we could have made this work if I was a different person leading a different life or maybe we would have ended up here anyway. I don’t know, but don’t blame yourself, okay?”
You nod. “I think I’m going to miss what we could have been,” you reply.
“So will I.” He steps forward and presses a kiss to your forehead. “Goodbye,” he says your name softly, as if it hurts him to say it. “Good luck with the rest of your life.”
“Goodbye Bruce.”
As soon as he’s gone, and you’re back inside of your apartment, you’re pulling your phone out of your purse and dialling Selina’s number.
“I thought you were supposed to be on a date,” her voice comes over the phone, sending butterflies swirling through your stomach.
“I was. Are you home?” you ask.
“I am. Why?” You picture her smiling, like she already knows why you’re asking.
“I have something to tell you, but honestly, I need to say it in person,” you explain.
“Oh? Well I certainly won’t say no to you coming over. You know my door’s always open to you.”
“Good because I’m on my way over.”
Your heart is hammering against your chest as you stand in front of Selina’s apartment, waiting for her to answer. It feels like forever before the door finally opens, which only makes the butterflies worse. Her hair is flowing over her shoulders and the only thing she’s wearing is a short red silk robe, that’s barely containing her breasts.
“I broke up with him,” you tell her.
“Well it’s about time,” she replies. She pulls you close. Her fingertips on your skin, sending electricity jolting through you. One of her hands remains on your arm while the other comes to cup your jaw. Her green eyes flicker down to your lips before quickly returning to your eyes. Understanding her silent question, you make your move and lean in. Your heart is somehow beating even harder, feeling like it’s trying to burst from your chest while everything else seems to slow down. Seconds feel like they trickle by before her lips finally connect with yours, making everything stop.
Selina kisses you slowly and sweetly. Her lips are even softer than you imagined them being. Kissing her is even better than you imagined. Your hands find her hips and you move forward, stepping more into her space until your bodies are touching. She smiles against your lips and pulls away.
“You have no idea how long I’ve wanted to do that,” she says. Both of her hands are cupping your face now and that look in her eyes has your stomach doing flips.
“And you have no idea how long I’ve been waiting for you to do that,” you reply. That makes her laugh softly.
“Come inside?” she offers. You agree eagerly and let her pull you inside of her apartment.
The feeling of kisses being pressed to your face slowly bringing you out of your sweat dreams. You grumble as you turn over and try to bury yourself further into the covers. Laughter reaches your ears and has you feeling warm and fuzzy inside. She keeps kissing you. Pressing them to your neck and shoulder blades. You sigh as you finally lift your head and look over your shoulder at Selina.
Playfulness sparkles in her green eyes. Her hair is a mess, but you think she looks as radiant as ever. You sit up and pull her close to kiss her. She kisses you back with fervour and heat rushes through you. Before you know it, she’s straddling you and has you pinned down against the mattress. You whine when she pulls away. You do your best to chase after her lips again, but she holds you down.
“As much as I would love to keep you in bed, we’re only here for a couple more days and we still have a long list of places to check out,” she says. She gets up off of the bed and walks over to the curtains where she pulls them open, letting the daylight into the hotel room and showing the view it has of the Eiffel Tower.
You and Selina had come here to Paris after visiting and exploring London. Shortly after getting together, you and her had decided you both needed a change of scenery, far away from Gotham. Before the two of you had left she had let you know about her secret double life.
She didn’t want there to be secrets. She knew how quickly they could break down a relationship so she told you about Catwoman. Stealing from the rich and how she was the East End’s self appointed protector, keeping the women and children safe from the men that prowled the area.
You didn’t believe her to begin with. That was when she showed you her catsuit and her bullwhip. You couldn’t not believe her after that. While it had come as a shock, it didn’t change how you felt about her. You love her.
“Don’t you mean you have a long list of places to case so you can take from them?”
She turns around to face you, hands on her hips, completely unashamed of her nakedness. Not that you’re complaining as you run your eyes over her body. “They’re not all for me. Picked out a few spots that I know you’re going to love.”
As soon as you have showered and you’re dressed, you and Selina leave the hotel. You let her lead the way, like always. First she takes you to a small cafe for breakfast. The food and drink is good, though your company is certainly better. Once you were both done eating she takes you by the hand and you continue your tour of the city.
She takes you to a couple of different museums, sharing with you her favourite exhibits. And then she’s taking you to almost endless jewellery and clothing stores. Neither of you buy anything from any of the stores you visit, but you know, beyond a doubt, that she is shopping. You don’t know the ins and outs of it, it’s safer that way if the cops come knocking, but in the fifteen minutes you’re in each store, she already knows what she wants and how she’s going to get it without tripping the security systems. And she knows what you want as well, keeping an eye on whatever your eyes linger on for just a moment too long.
As evening time rolls around, you and Selina decide to end your long, yet enjoyable, day at a rooftop restaurant. The Eiffel Tower acting as the backdrop, like you’re in some ridiculous cheesy romance movie.
Though you both arrived back at the hotel to change for dinner, she leaves long before you. You know why, but if anyone was to ever ask you where she is was on any particular night, you already have an answer. “Yeah, she was with me all night.”
Selina doesn’t leave you waiting at the restaurant for long, arriving five minutes after you. She arrives breathless, but looking perfect. Ringlet curls, a smokey cat eye and purple lipstick that matches her dress. Your mouth almost drops open at the sight of her.
“I didn’t keep you waiting long, did I?” she asks as she sits down.
“Of course not. You never do,” you reply.
Dinner goes by quickly which isn’t hard with how caught up you and Selina are with each other. The subtle touches sending goosebumps across your skin and how she looks at you. Only this time there’s no guilty when you think about kissing her. And you can kiss her. Nothing and no one in your way to stop you. And you do love kissing her.
“I’ve got you something,” she says. She reaches into gift bag she brought with her and presents you with a blue rectangle box, complete with a green bow. It’s light and doesn’t make much noise when you gently shake it.
You undo the bow and remove the lid. Inside of the box is the diamond bracelet that you had been eyeing up earlier. You smile at the sight. She leans over to help secure it to your wrist.
“You shouldn’t have.”
She shrugs. “It’s not like it cost much,” she laughs.
After dinner, you go for a walk together through a nearby park. You walk hand in hand, talking and laughing quietly. She suddenly stops in her tracks and before you can ask what’s wrong she kisses you. It’s not a peck either. Her full lips move against yours, tongue working your mouth open and stealing away your breath. Not that it’s hard for her to do that.
She rests her forehead and you can’t stop thinking about how happy you are. It’s strange for you to think that there had once been a moment not too long ago when you had thought you knew what happiness was. You had been wrong. Standing here with her, you know what real happiness is supposed to be.
“Let’s sit,” she says. You agree, thankful for the chance to sit, your heels are starting to hurt. She leads you toward a nearby bench where you take a seat.
With that feeling of happiness that’s flowing through you and the realisation you have come to, you decide to take a chance.
“I love you, Selina,” you tell her.
She looks a bit taken back which has you panic. Is it way too soon to say that? It only lasts a moment though as she smiles, the corners of her eyes crinkling before she’s leaning back in to kiss you again.
“I love you too,” she replies. Hearing those four words has your heart feeling like it might burst from how happy you are. You can’t hide your huge smile, nor would you want to. She then leans in close and lightly strokes your hair. “How about we go back to our hotel room and, should we make it the bed, we won’t leave it for all of tonight and tomorrow hmm?”
It’s Saturday. A rare Saturday where you and your co-worker Eddie both aren’t working.
You knock on Eddie’s front door. Waiting a bit and hearing nothing. You knock again.
You hear “Coming. Shit! Fuck! Coming!! shit shit… Hold your gaddam horses” from Eddie— kinda muffled.
He opens the door with a scowl … and a glint catches your eye. A sewing needle in his mouth. He pulls the needle from between his teeth, it is trailing black thread. His scowl is softening into mild surprise.
“Oh it’s you??” He says
“It’s me. You…are... sewing ?? something?”
“Got a new patch for my vest at the show last weekend.” He holds up a black patch that says ‘Sloppy Seconds’ on it. “What’s up?”
“You said you were off today, and you could help me??? But your phone was busy… and probably I should have waited but it’s nearly eleven…”
“Nono, it’s cool, c’mon in.” He holds the screen door for you with his palm, fingers spread wide. “You are always welcome at Casa Munson. Didn’t think you’d take me up on my offer s’all.”
“But, Eddie Munson, you’re my only hope.” You did your best Leia Organa and Eddie grinned at you in acknowledgement of your effort.
“So you’re saying I’m a space wizard??” He fished for the compliment with typical cocky swagger.
“I’ve seen you use the Force on people with weak minds.” You wiggled your fingers in the air.
“When?? When have I ever done that?” He laughed.
You imitated Eddie’s midwestern accent that had that Munson Family brand Tennessee honey drizzled on it. “Golly, Officer, I didn’t think I was speeding. Oh - Keith, you said you didn’t want me to close on Tuesday, you personally want to walk the deposit to the bank, remember. Nah, you don’t need to roll to detect cursed objects right now after picking up that innocent looking pendant ...?”
“Well.. my magic doesn’t work on you, anyway.” He wryly pursed his lips.
It does though. It always does.
You watch him put the needle into a pin cushion that looked like a tomato and he laid his project aside.
He bends over the couch arm to do this and you can see the bit of un-inked skin above his gray boxers where his shirt rides up and his jeans ride low.
You can see the nice curve of his butt where one of the pockets is torn and his boxers show there too and you wish to hell he wanted you back.
You sigh. That would be so nice.
He stands and looks at you with his eyebrows raised in query. “What??”
So you change the subject. “Why don’t you put patches on your jeans? They are rapidly becoming more hole than fabric. Denim isn’t supposed to be... lace.”
He grins again. “That’s just air conditioning for my knees. S’very practical.”
“Including the hole on your left ass cheek - that’s for air circulation too, is it?”
His eyes widened. He runs his hand down his butt, fingers dipping into the hole. “Shiiiiit, why didn’t anyone tell me??”
“Presumably because we were all enjoying it?” You suggested playfully.
His eyes snap to yours. “Enjoying what? Me, looking like a total dork??”
“It’s called deshibile - it’s very fashionable.”
“What are you even talking about?? You're so... aggravating sometimes, I swear to gawd!” Eddie jogs down the hallway and you follow. He tries to get a good look in the mirror by his custom Warlock - she’s so pretty - but he calls her ‘Sweetheart’ - lucky tart. “ How long were these jeans ripped to hell on my ass??!! I only have two pairs - so - you saw!! You totally saw this yesterday and you didn’t even say....”
“Your boxers are keeping you decent - you just have a ripped pocket. It’s fine - You look fine. Why do you care? Keith doesn’t care about ripped pants - like - you wear shoes to work... so you are one up on Argyle with the flip flops. Now if you went commando, that might be a problem.”
He is running his hands through his hair. “I can’t afford more jeans right now... fuuuuuuck.”
“You have sewing supplies right here - You just need another patch, Eddie - from older jeans or an old t-shirt... it would barely show - until our next pay day and then we could go thrifting together? If you want?”
“Yeah.... yeah... sorry - just went to that concert and I shouldn’t have because we needed a plumber last week and money’s tight.”
You nodded. Money is always tight. The job pays you both very little. You know why you stay (to see Eddie) - but you don’t know why Eddie doesn’t get a better job.
“Hey - I’m sorry, I said you were ‘aggravating’, man, I-I didn't mean it - I mean, you do Drive Me Insane, but I guess I kinda like it... how we joke around.” Eddie leaned his forehead into the mirror - closed his eyes. “You’re a good friend, you know?? And... and I promised to help you out. But, I kinda forget what with??”
“Because I didn’t say. Because it’s a secret.”
“Oh! Covert mission, huh?” Eddie turned with - well it wasn’t elegance but it was beautiful just the same. He clapped his large hands together and rubbed them up and down with glee. “What are we up to?”
“I’m making a mix tape. For a guy I like. And I know you have the perfect set up to record on.”
“For a guy??”
“Yeah - I’m into them - dudes - in general.” you snarked. “Girls aren’t out of the question , but I do tend to go for...”
“I know-ah. I mean. You wanna use my equipment - and my music, I assume??”
“Some of it.” You nodded at Eddie. Eddie has a great music collection.
“My stuff... To court some loser...”
“He’s not a loser. He’s perfect.”
“No guy is perfect, I guarantee you.”
“He’s handsome. He’s kind and generous. He’s funny... on purpose. He has these lips...”
“Stop - I do not want to hear about his lips. Where’d you even meet him? At...”
“You know - around Hawkins...” You cut him off before he can ask ‘at work?’ and you’d have to come up with some crazy lie.
“You sure he’s single?? Maybe he’s dating half of Hawkins?? Maybe he’s gay?” Eddie is not looking at you - he’s flipping through records in a milk crate.
“Maybe he is all of those things - or he’s not into me at all - or maybe he’s not into anyone - that’s why I’m making the mix. I can tell him I like him in the j-card and in the musical subtext - if he’s not into me and can never be - we can just be friends. I’ll die a little, but that’s okay - every day we die a little more, right?”
“Morbid. But, accurate.” Eddie turned back to you. “Okay - I said I’d help you and I’ll help you - but we are making two mix tapes. One to express your interest in this guy - who probably doesn’t deserve you by the way. And one for you. Just for you. Deal?” He asks this like he’s the one convincing you of this project. Your idea - your excuse to spend time with Eddie - as much as you can finagle.
“Deal.” You go to shake on it and Eddie stops and spits in his right palm first. He checks you to see if you are grossed out. By his saliva?? No. Opposite really. “So - not a blood pact?” You kid and spit as delicately as you can into your palm - hold it out for him as brave as you can be. He grins, shakes it. You try not to think about your spit combined on your hands. Fail utterly at that.
“Okay... tell me about this Paragon of ‘Manly’ Virtue...” Eddie rolls his eyes.
“You said you didn’t want to hear about his kissable lips, his pretty eyes, his nice ass...”
“God! Stop - I didn’t know you were so fucking horny!! I meant his musical tastes.”
“He’s beautiful and I am an appreciator of his physical attributes. He’s not just a piece of meat though... he’s also got a great voice... and he’s very clever...”
“And you’re what - gonna only put really horned up slutty music on this tape and probably sleep with him immediately - you Can’t!! I mean, don’t - he might have crabs or something. You gotta be more careful.”
“He’s probably not going to like me back, but if he asks me on a date I’ll be sure to ask him point blank if he has crabs, first thing.”
“I’m just sayin’ maybe get to know him a bit before you offer your... body.”
“Okay - noted - Hmmm - ‘Horned up Slut Music’ What’s that filed under in your milk crates system ‘H’ or “S’?? Wait - did you just mean SKA?”
Eddie pushed into your shoulder with his, playfully, and was unusually quiet for a while. Picking up records and tapes and showing you song titles. Gently steering you away from anything that sounded like a Direct proposition for sex with the ‘mystery guy’.
Finally stopping you. “Now you’ve got 97 minutes of music, you’ve got to edit.”
“I thought we were making two mix tapes?’
“I’m making the second one. You have enough on your mind with mr. wonderful. When he breaks your heart you can listen to my mix and cry on my shoulder, and I’ll go kick his ass sideways.”
“I appreciate the offer, but I wouldn’t ask you to do that.” You looked down in your lap.
Eddie put two fingers under your chin and lifted your eyes to meet his. “Is he...like... is he so much better than me?” His voice broke a bit on the end.
You couldn’t speak - why wouldn’t words come out??
Eddie sounded put out but his eyes weren’t mad. “Like, other than the lips and the ass... or whatever - what’s he got that I don’t?”
You kinda... launched into his lap. You absolutely kissed him with tongue right off.
Eddie scootched like a crab into his bed - pulling you with him. Kissing you back.
“Am I a close second? You could settle for me, I’m kinda okay with that, considering the kiss you just laid on me didn’t feel like second prize.” Eddie looked so sweetly befuddled. “I do not have crabs and I’m not secretly dating anyone and I’ve been into you since day one.”
“Eddie, you are the guy.”
He blinked.
“You made me a mix?” Eddie’s pretty eyes got a twinkle in them. “But the messaging is so vague - how will I know if you are really attracted to me when you didn’t use any music to indicate a deep lust for my person.”
“You’ll just have to read the j-card.” You teased back.
Hello guys!! This is my first fic and I want to make some things clear for you guys!
English is my third language, German my first and Russian my second. I’m going to try and involve the languages into the story. That doesn’t have to mean that the reader is German or Russian, it just means that they speak more than just English! Tho the reader will not be born in an English speaking country. If the reader speaks in their native language it will be written like this: “{Hi!}”
Please correct me if I use a word wrong, forgot a word or similar things.
I’m still trying to figure out how tumblr works so please understand if my posts don’t look to aesthetic!
~pretty girl~
Part 1
(Name) walks down the street of Cambridge, she was finally going to go to her dream university. She let out a breathy sigh, her trembling hand picked with the buttons of her black coat.
Her heels clicking as she wanders further and slowly reaches the Cambridge university.
(Name) feels her heart beating faster and faster, while she had an international degree, thanks to the international boarding school in Oxford she went for two years, she still felt like she didn’t deserve this. But she wouldn’t let that bring her down, she will succeed and make a big deal out of herself, opening her own architectural studio and be her own boss. She will help her family financially and will be the first successful person in the family and she is not gonna let anyone get in her way.
She arrived at the campus and went inside, she looked around for the receptionist, when she couldn’t locate anyone she pulled out her phone. The background of her phone, a photo of her and her little sister, Mikaela. Mikaela’s is 4 years younger then (Name).
(Name) heard a door open, she looked up and saw the receptionist she talked on the phone just a few days ago. She walked up to the desk and the older lady looked up and a smile made its way onto her slightly wrinkled face.
“Good morning dear, you’re (Name) (LastName)?”
(Name) nodded and gave a kind smile. “Yeah that’s me! I’m here to get my dorm room and my schedules.”
“Ah right! Not to step into your personal space, hun but where are your luggage’s?”
“Oh! I’m going to get them later, I stayed in a hotel and I just wanted to look around the campus and get my things so I can get myself organized before I start.”
The elder lady nodded slightly impressed by the young woman standing in front of her.
“Well come on darling.”
(Name) always liked the British accent and couldn’t help but also pick up some things over the years, her accent of her native language still being heavy but still.
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
“And this is going to be your dorm, your roommate should be already here! Here is your key and I hope you have a great time!”
(Name) smiled and thanked the old receptionist for giving her a tour and showing her her dorm.
The young girl opened the door and was greeted by a beautiful dark-skinned girl laying on what seems to be her bed, her boho braids being spread onto her cushion.
The not named girl didn’t seem to notice (Name), as she was wearing headphones. (Name) didn’t want to straddle the girl so she knocked load onto the door. The girl on the bed yanked her self up, clearly taking back and beamed as she saw (Name).
“Omg heyyy, you’re my roommate right?”
(Name) suddenly felt shy as the pretty girl stood up and walked towards (Name).
“Yeah my names (Name) (LastName) and what is your name?” (Name) just wanted to let herself be swallowed be the ground, god she sounded so formal, what’s wrong with her that girl was going to be her roommate for a few years.
The pretty girl let out a giggle and answered.
“I’m Mia Jones. Nice to meet cha!”
(Name) felt like she was blinded be Mias smile but quickly felt comfortable so she smiled equally as bright back.
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
It had been a week since (Name) was last at Cambridge but tomorrow was the day the term started. She has officially moved into her dorm 3 days ago, she made her stay at the hotel not as long as planned, she liked Mia and couldn’t wait so she cut her stay and moved in.
Mia and (Name) were what you would call, “it girls” they’re both pretty, smart, kind but could get witty and snarky if it was necessary.
(Name) quickly catches a few eyes of boys and girls, her sexuality encouraging the girls to also try and make moves on her.
Mia told (Name) that today was a party to celebrate the last day before the new year starts and everyone even freshmen’s were invited.
The girls obviously wouldn’t decline such an offer and they got ready. Mias outfit consisted out a black mini skirt along with a purple top that clung to her like second skin.
(Name)s outfit was a low waisted flared jeans with a red, Spagetti string top. The fabric has a flora pattern across her chests area, kind of like a bikini form.
Mias silver jewelry glistening on her chocolate skin.
(Name) put on her gold jewelry and they both put on black heels, jackets, got some money into their purses and made their way downstairs.
Apparently Mia was friends with some guy who was going to bring them to the party. When they reached the car a to guys were leaning onto a black car and Mia made her way to the paler guy, hugging him.
“Jon!!” “Mia!!”
They both let go and seem to forget about their friends as they both talked and talked. (Name) noticed the other friend still leaning against the car so she made her way up to him and greeted him with a bright smile.
“Hi my name is (Name) (LastName)! What’s yours?” Tho (Name) obviously knew who he was, she didn’t live under rocks. Standing beside her was Damian Wayne the prodigy and Bruce Wayne’s youngest son.
“Damian Wayne.” His voice was deep but welcoming, (Name) didn’t know why but she felt his voice kind of calming and grounding.
So just like F4 2005 had Norrin Radd have a thing for Sue, F4 2025 Johnny and Shalla Bal in kind of a situationship, and many are talking about fics where it's reader who catches Norrin Radd's attention, like @boredmadamoiselle did (which was great)
We need one where reader gets the attention of Shalla Bal and they bask on it and then Johnny, who of course felt attraction towards Shalla Bal but has stronger feelings for reader, gets jealous because reader seems to like Shalla Bal, and while there is of course appreciation of Shalla Bal's being, reader actually reciprocates Johnny's feelings.
