He had messed up again.

You two have been friends for long, but being honest, it was hard being friends with someone so emotionally closed off. You are a vigilante that occasionally helps the batfamily, and that's how you two met, but he knew he didn't make it easy. He didnt make being his friend being something enjoyable most times, and he was working on it, for you, since he had fallen for you long ago, even if he would never admit that, not even to himself, or so he thought.

Tonight, he had stepped over the line more than he thought he could even if he was trying. You were asking him to be more careful, saying that you were tired of patching him up because of his own careless behaviour, but he was tired, angry, annoyed, and just uncomfortable due to the sweat and the pain, so he did the only thing he knew how to do, explode.

He started yelling, and you were yelling back at him, trying to assure him that you just care about him, but after hearing that, he got scared. Scared of the commitment, of how vulnerable he felt near you, so he yelled that he doesn't need you, that he would be alright, even better, on his own. The biggest lie he has ever said.

You stormed off, leaving the Wayne manor, not caring about how hard it was pouring outside. You just walked heading to your apartment. He sat on the couch, trying to pretend he didn't care, but damn it, he did. He cared about you more than anything. So when he realised what he had done, he started running towards you

When he finally got to you, you started yelling at him, angry because of the argument that you two just had. He started yelling back, both of your voices mixing together in a painfully loud screaming match

"If you weren't so sensible, I wouldn't have needed to run after you!" -he blurred out without thinking. Of course, you yelled back and kept yelling until he took both of your wrists

The rain was falling hard, but neither of you seemed to care, too focused on your anger, but then he looked at you in the eyes and yell

"Damn it let me speak for a moment and stop being so fucking stubborn! Of course I didn't mean it when I said I dont need you! You are all I need! Because I fucking love you even if im too messed up to even want to admit it! Its fucking true so stop yelling at me and just let me kiss you!"

He yells as he looks at you with raw emotion present in both his voice and eyes, you weren't expecting this, even less during such a heated fight, but he seemed to be more truthful than he has ever been
