Yes, finally I manage actual drabbles! 100 words each. =)
Lian had called personally to ask Tim if he could take her trick-or-treating. He readily agreed and immediately set to research the best route to take Lian through so she could get the most candy.
He arrived at 4, like requested, and rang the doorbell. The door was flung open and Lian stood before him in a fighting stance, little hands balled into fists and short legs set wide apart for balance.
“Do you like my costume?” she asked, eyes wide and hopeful.
Tim smiled looking at the miniature version of his costumed persona standing before him, “I love it.”
Selina took a deep breath, “Bruce...I’m pregnant.”
No, she shook her head, that’s not right. Can’t blurt it out. This requires finesse.
She paced back and forth. Maybe I…no, that’s just…no.
She sat on her bed and let herself fall back. How do you tell Batman he’s going to be a father? I mean, it’s Batman, for crying out loud! She sat back up and watched as he entered.
“What’s wrong?” Batman asked, removing his cowl.
“Nothing.”
He arched an eyebrow.
“I...here!” she handed him the pregnancy test, “This is your fault!” she yelled and stalked out of the room.
Catwoman agreed to help Batman, but as she waited for him in the WatchTower lounge while he was off speaking to J’onn somewhere, she was starting to regret it. Bored, she looked around and then noticed Wonder Woman walking towards her.
Batman saw them standing face to face, turned on his heal, and walked out.
For the first time since joining the JLA, Flash saw fear in Batman’s eyes and peaked into the lounge to discover the reason.
Soon, word spread that Catwoman and Wonder Woman were actually in the same room together and Batman was nowhere to be found.
