A Party Invitation - gothams_dent

She had intentionally left the alarm unset. It was Saturday, and Harvey was not going to work. Rachel had already made that decision for him. To make sure? She'd hidden his keys.

The woman went through her mail as she walked back into her apartment after fetching it. A letter from Bruce caught her eyes. She sat on the couch and opened it.

Rachel,

Things have come up, so I can't attend. I don't want to see the tickets go to waste. Have fun!

Love,
Bruce.

A fancy invitation to a masquerade rested in the envelope, bearing the message that it covered the bearer and one guest.

Really, she was surprised Bruce had sent the invitation to her. He had to know she'd take Harvey. Maybe this was a sign that Bruce was growing up, letting go!

She set the invitation and other mail down on the coffee table and went into the bedroom. She climbed onto the bed and leaned over the man still sleeping on the bed. She kissed his cheek, whispering in his ear.

"Harvey. Time to get up now."
