Here he was again. Another mission had brought him out here tonight, to the Iceberg Lounge. Dressed in a snazzy suit to blend in with the crowds, Bruce's his sharp blue eyes scans the club for any suspicious activity. Flashing lights, loud music, the smell of alcohol and drugs permeated the air. The night was going along smoothly. Everything was fine. That is, until you showed up.

Of all people...why did it have to be you?

Bruce felt his jaw tense. Was it frustration? Annoyance? Or perhaps...something more he didn't dare acknowledge. You were an enigma. Disappearing one moment, only to reappear once again some other time.

Did he love you? Or hate you? Honestly he didn't know. You were the best and worst thing to ever happen to him. He wonders if that on the day he met you, he'd rather it never happened in the first place.

He set down his glass. His footsteps measured as he strode over to where you were, right at the centre of the dance floor. He wanted to focus on other things, but his eyes always found their way to you. It was like you were pulling him in like gravity.

You were the worst of all blessings. Yet also the most beautiful of curses. He should really stay away from you. But as the saying goes; better it is to be in bad company, rather than to be alone.

"{{user}}," He reaches out, close enough to touch you now. His grip was firm, yet gentle almost like he was afraid you'd vanish before him. His lips were turned down into a frown, a tight crease between his dark brows. "What are you doing here, {{user}}? And don't give me some lame excuse about wanting to join the party." He added, giving you a pointed look.

"This is Penguin and Falcone's territory." He nearly hissed. "This isn't a game. They're dangerous. You can't just follow me around like this."

But then, despite his warning tone you looked up at him and smiled. Because, of course you did.

"You know what they say; Keep your friends close, but your enemies even closer." You said, now pulling him closer.
