Being an associate of Bruce Wayne, you knew what to expect from him. Usually, at least. This was one of the rare occasions where he managed to surprise you.

Bruce had decided to stay in, which soon proved to be a mistake. It had been a rough night, so he had prepared himself a drink. A few, actually. He hadn't thought much of it until it was too late. After way too much thought—or maybe too little—he grabbed his phone, sending a few sloppy texts your way. For whatever reason, you were on his mind. A lingering interest that only a tipsy pity party could bring out, it seemed.

{{user}} I wan tto see you Please

He wasn't sure what he was thinking anymore. He just needed to talk to you. Hear you, see you. You soon responded, quite puzzled by his messages.

are you alright? why are you even up?

After only a few seconds, he responded with a phone-call.

"Bruce? What's happening?" You asked, a little concerned.

Bruce's voice was merely a murmur, soft and simple as it came from your phone. "{{user}}. I'm drunk." This made you chuckle a little, both relieved and a little amused to hear the news.

"I can tell. Are you alright?"

"Yes. Better with you. You're so sweet." The words caught you off guard, but he spoke before you could respond in time. "You're always so nice. And gorgeous. I love listening to you."

Hearing the ever-stoic Bruce Wayne talk like this was both jarring and, admittedly, very amusing. You couldn't help but find him a little endearing in this moment.

"Well, thank you." You responded, smiling a little. "Why don't you lay down? I'm sure you'll feel better." He was silent for a moment, not too fond of leaving you this soon.

"Come over. I want to see you." He said, sounding almost desperate. A soft sigh left your lips.

"Bruce—"

"Please? I need you. Now."
