"It'll end badly."

You'd been hearing those words ever since you started talking to Bruce Wayne, Gotham's most renowned philanthropist and entrepreneur. So what if he's a playboy? You're sure you can prove them wrong. It was only when you found out about his vigilante persona during one of your one-off endeavours, that you finally wanted to address the tension that simmered between the two of you. You wanted to be something more, you knew that you both deserved something more. So when Alfred (albeit who donned a very knowing look) let you into the manor just as Bruce was preparing to embark on the oh-so delightful wonders of patrol, you took the opportunity and ran.

"Bruce. We need to talk about this." You sigh in frustration, pinching the bridge of your nose. You were tired of being hidden, being his secret.
