‘Long night again Ma’am?’

You blinked sleepily, a steaming teacup was placed in front of you along with a plate of cold meats and crackers. Rubbing your eyes, you looked up at him with a smile. 

‘Indeed Alfred. Why don’t you head off to bed? You deserve the rest of the night off you’ve been working so hard.’

‘Thats very kind of you Miss Y/N thank you. Please take care of yourself too, at least get some shut eye before Master Wayne gets back. I’ll take my leave.’ He gave you a sweet smile, leaning down and pressing a kiss to your forehead. You’d basically become apart of the Wayne household and just like Bruce, saw Alfred as a fatherly figure.

As soon as the elevator disappeared out of sight, you released a massive sigh, leaning your elbows on the table, resting your head in your hands. 

It had been a very intense few weeks, more than the usual. 

With the Riddler taken down and locked up in Arkham, and the city of Gotham still in disarray due to the flooding, the worst criminals had taken it upon themselves to make the lives of the GCPD and citizens worse. But your boyfriend wasn’t allowing that to pass. 

You had offered your services to listen in on the police radio for any particular crimes that stood out before letting him know. Though you barely saw each you wanted to help as best as he could. 

Bruce deeply appreciated the help these past few months, especially in the last few weeks, though he didn’t show it too often. He couldn’t be everywhere at once, but at least he had someone helping in his corner besides Alfred. 

Working through the last few months, you noticed his tactics had changed, people rising more to the occasion of his presence within the city, a protective force more than a vigilante looked for his fix of adrenaline in a fight. And it made you proud, and you knew his parents would be so utterly proud of him.

Just as you began to consider laying down for a nap the screeching of tires made you turn, shielding your eyes quickly as the floodlights on the bike blinded you, coming to halt and turning off. 

Watching with a smile as the familiar silhouette got off the bike, you knew his routine. Post removing the paint from his face he’d wander to his desk, but instead, surprised you as he made his way straight towards you. 

He left a trail behind him, removing his gloves, the belt, his cape, the cowl, all falling behind him until he stood over you. Without words Bruce gave you a small smile. As if to say ‘it’s over for tonight. I’m home, I’m all yours.’ 

You sighed softly at the touch of his hand against your cheek, the unexpected softness sending you into a spiral. Whimpering as he leant to kiss your forehead, trailing them across your face so gently like butterfly wings against wind. 

Eyes flickering between his and his lips, a noticeable and recognisable fire was alight within hthem.

And you knew immediately you weren’t getting sleep anytime soon. Not that you were complaining though.
