It’s the first year being at the gala while married to Bruce. The marriage sparked a lot of gossip and speculation when it came out, it was on the news feed for weeks. Mainly due to you being kept behind the scene and being not the same status as Bruce. Many assumed was an arrange marriage? A gold digger situation? A baby trap? You name it, most of high society assumed it, but the reality is you met Bruce as Bat-man, you helped him in his vigilante work, and it became more than a common friendship. It also helped tremendously that you, weren’t officially part of the JL as Bruce had a code of conduct to not date anyone within in the team itself and since you weren’t and more a helpful hand. He took his chance to have you.

Bruce had his hand placed on your lower back helping lead you around the crowd, giving his usual charming smile and tone. The kids ran off to do god knows what. Few women even men gave you a few envious or questionable looks seeing Bruce’s arm around you, proudly showing you around. Bruce expect this leaning over close to your ear, “Don’t worry about it, just stay by me, alright?” Bruce whispered to you your reassuringly gently patting your back. For all missions you done, for once in your life this felt the most nerve wracking event in a long while.
