Summary: during patrol you and Jason were struck under the heavy rain so he sneaks you to an abandoned building for a date. Bruce caught both of you and grounded you both

Patrol had been painfully boring.

No goons

No robbery

No riddler and scarecrow making out for attention.

No joker

No smuggling

No explosion

You walked to the ledge and sat there rollin your ankles.

“So..” Jason asked.

“Don't start”

“Listen”

“It's gonna be something stupid”

“Please”

“Nope,jay”

“Pretty pleaseeeee”

“Fine”

“Ok,if you eat something after breakfast what is it called ?”

“Brunch?....”

“So if you eat something during like 4 to 6 pm, what is it called?’

“Huh?”

“Right,I was thinking about coining a term for it”

“This is so stupid”

“Can it be called early dinner or late lunch?.like Einner or Lalunch!"

“I'm pretty sure that there's a term for it,jason”

“Aggh I need crime”

You said as you wiggled your legs and closed your eyes

“Glad to know that you’re a True Gothamite”

You snorted .

It was drizzling and windy .

“The weather is so good,I want to curl up with a good book and eat soup” Jason said as he sat next to you.

“ You know sometimes, you act like a lady in her mid 50s”

You both giggle. After a while nothing happened and you just sat there talking about random stuff. The wind rolled through Gotham.

Then—

Drip.

You blinked

Another drop landed on Jason's domino mask.

A loud crack of thunder.

"Oh, you've got to be kidding me."

The sky opened.

Within seconds, rain poured over Gotham.You yelped as cold water soaked through your cape.

Jason groaned, running a hand through his already drenched hair.

"Welp."

"Welp?"

"Welp."

"We should probably head back."

He looked toward Wayne Manor's direction... then back at you.

“Or....“ he smirked.

“No."

“Just come with me” he held his hand

“C’mon”

You signed softly and told his hand. He pulled you closer and held your waist and fired his grabpel.

He brought you to an abandoned building, with cracked windows and poorly done construction. He closed your eyes with a blindfold.

“Jason you're not gonna push me down to the building right?”

“No….”

“..Probably-”

You smacked his shoulder

“JASON”

“I’m kidding,and would’ve been a horrible date for pushing you off”

“Wait a date ?”

He went quiet for a few minutes.

“No..”

“Jay” you tried to take the blindfold off but he pulled it back.

“Just wait ok?”

You hummed and played with your hair as he moved things around the room grunting and swearing sometimes.

“Shit”

“You okay,jay?”

“Yeah” he said while grunting

He guided you forward, one hand gently over your eyes and the other steady on your shoulder.

"Keep walking.”

A creaking door opened.

The sound of rain softened.

"We inside?" you asked.

"Maybe."

"You know Bruce said not to bring me to abandoned buildings."

"He said not to investigate abandoned buildings alone. Huge difference."

"That's... not what he meant."

"Details."

He stopped walkin?

"Ready?"

"No."

"Perfect."

The blindfold slipped away.

Your eyes slowly adjusted

The roof leaked in one corner. Old wooden beams stretched overhead, and dusty windows framed Gotham's glowing skyline.

The room was covered with candles lighting up the whole place beautifully and….. it was romantic?

You turned to Jason .

“You're hand m’lady”

He held his hand out

You looked at it, then back at him.

"...You're such a dork."

"Says the girl dressed like a tiny bat."

"Tiny?"

"Vertically."

You gasped dramatically.

"I've been insulted."

"Will you recover?"

"...No."

Jason chuckled, keeping his hand out.

"So?"

You slipped your hand into his.

His fingers wrapped around yours carefully, almost like he was afraid you'd disappear if he held on too tightly.

"Do you even know how to dance?"

you asked.

"No."

"I don't either."

"Perfect."

So what's the plan?"

"We just... sway?"

"That's your grand romantic idea?"

"I never claimed to be Dick."

"Thank God."

A laugh escaped both of you.

Jason took one hesitant step.

You copied him.

Then another.

The two of you shuffled in a slow, clumsy circle across the old wooden floor.

"So far," you whispered,

"I'd rate your dancing a solid three out of ten."

"Three?"

"I'm being generous."

"Ouch."

"You stepped on my boot.

"I was aiming for the floor."

"Missed."

"Terribly."

You giggled, the sound mixing with the steady rain tapping against the broken windows.

Jason looked at you for a moment before quietly asking,

"Better?"

"Hm?"

"Than patrol."

You smiled.

"A lot better."

His shoulders relaxed.

"I'm glad.”

His hand slid to your waist and pulled you closer.

His face was close enough for you to smell his scent.

“WHAT are you two doing?” bruce's voice crackled through your comms.

You two stepped back,

“Uhh, patrolling?”jason said.

“Never know patrolling involved slow dance surrounded by candles”

Both of you looked at each other in horror, Jason mouthed how does he know?

You looked around right outside the window was a Wayne tech camera. Great. Just great.

You stared at the old expensive carpet as you soaked it, bruce was looking disappointed which is worst than him being angry.

Jason opened his mouth

“I can-”

“No”.

“Both of you are grounded for 3 weeks”

“But, bruce I have plans with m-”

“ I'm not hearing it”

He left slamming the door shut.

You stormed to your room,changed and started to rot.

After a while, there were two knocks on your door, you dug deep into your sheets and screamed.

“Don't come”

The door opened and silent footsteps then it stopped

“I'm sorry…”

You just hid under your blanket.

“I know that you won't talk to me… i sneak out and brought you burger and fries from pamela's i thought-”

You jumped out of the bed and tackled him into a hug, he just laughed and hugged you tightly.

You quickly pecked his lips and started eating the food. He was red as a lobster.

“Wow”

“Best first date ever” you said as you stuffed your mouth with fries.

He just looked at you started to started laughing and you joined too.

Jason Todd x reader

chapter 1: chapter 2

a/n:this ff series is a combination of the Arkham (games) universe and the titians show. The timeline maybe f-ed up only for Harvey dent. Is it just me or Harvey remains me of nanami kento and higuruma together?….

Champagne glasses clinked and heels clacked on the pearl marled floors of the dimly candle-lit gala. As the messy haired brunette leaned back and chugged another overpriced liquid to burn his throat enough to make him forget that he was wearing a tight suit that cost more than his first car. 

Bruce and Dick pulled the ‘Wayne family’ card to drag me here, and honestly, I was too burned out to tell ’em where to shove it.

I watched Dick “ I attract people more than ivy’s pollen” Grayson was flashing that perfect smile at people who melted like butter on a hot day in Arizona and his hand on the waist of a random rich lady who was cackling more horridly than a hyena at anything he said . I peeled the suit jacket off and gobbled down another shot, someone sat next to me and ordered a Sazerac.

“Well,well if it isn’t Chris still gobbling down sht”

“Says that guy who drinks negronis”

“Pst” Jason scoffed 

“What the hell are you doing here,huh”

“See there” he pointed to a wasted guy wearing a cheap suit and whispering something to a girl. 

“I'm that rich bastard’s chauffeur.  Can you believe that idiot  gave me THREE grand to buy him a suit”

“That’s is the cheapest thing I’ve ever seen”

“Yeah, I brought him something from a thrift store and he couldn’t even tell the difference.Well Mr “Cheapest thing I’ve ever seen” How's life with Mr.Money bags?”

“Ahh the absolute worst, He drags me to these charity galas, and introduces me to wrinkling old people as his “son” for the first half of the gala while I pretend I don’t wanna jump off the balcony just to see if I land on the fountain after I set this place on fire for good”.

He put his hand on my shoulder and shock his head

“Jason you disappointment , you have no idea how to have fun. You could talk and hang out with the most beautiful women in Gotham and look at you sitting here like a loser” 

He ordered another drink.

“No wonder why you never had someone”

“Yeah, as if girls were swarming you , They walked the opposite direction whenever you were there. Still feel down for that girl you forced to go to prom with”.

“Whatever you say Jason the maidenless, at least I had someone to go to prom with.” He smirked.

“And what are you doing as a chauffeur? Thought you would become a billionaire like you said you would after you dropped out” He clenched his jaw and grabbed my drink from my hand

“Hey What are-”

 “Go, go talk and get some fresh air Todd” 

He pushed me out of my chair, I groaned and grabbed my coat, threw it over my shoulder and walked away from the bar.

“Make me proud Jason” he said with a sht eating grin as he slowly drank my drink.

I rolled my eyes and went to the balcony decorated with flowers and smelled like sand wood. I took out a cigarette and started to smoke. I just stood there looking at the midnight sky wondering how fast those silk curtains would go up in flames ,the fountain is kinda small so I can’t really have a safe landing. And I can't stand the thought of listening to Bruce's lecture while Alfred looks at me with utter disappointment and Dickhead  grinning ear to ear. I put out my cigarette and grabbed a martini from a waiter and started to drink again.

After a while I got bored thinkin of all the ways I can sneak outta here or how many ways to set this place on fire and decided to head back in. I bumped into someone and spilled a bit of my drink on her dress . My suit jacket fell on the floor.

“Oh my god,I- Im so sorry” 

 I was mentally preparing myself for being screamed at or even worse. I hesitated and looked down at her face. The dark lighting didn’t show her face clearly but my god she was beautiful.

“Oh, no worries”

She rubbed the stain off with a napkin and picked up my jacket and handed it to me. Guess Chris was right, she was the most statuesque person I've ever seen. She is the type of person who would charm both Bruce and dick heck even Alfred. In that dark blue mermaid dress, her hair down with a sparkly diamond necklace. I stopped dreaming and gently took my jacket.

“Uh- thanks. Jesus, sorry about your dress”

 “It’s okay, it’ll just dry in a few seconds”

She smiled warmly and walked away.I took a first real breath after seeing her. 

“Jesus Christ” I dragged my hand down my face.The conversation was only 7 seconds and my heart was already beating like a Victorian peasant who saw her husband after the war.

“Ahh, need to talk to Dick”

I put on my suit  jacket and headed in, the hall was cooler than before. It wasn't as hard spotting Dick as the lady near him was still cackling so hard her entire neck was red and her face an awful shade of orange.

“Excuse me,I need Grayson for a moment” He gave me a confused look as I grabbed his hand and dragged him to a corner of the hall.

“ What do you want Jason ?” He angrily muttered.

“ Why is your face so red-How many drinks did you have tonight? Bruce is gonna kill ME”

“ Dick p-please help me find this girl,please”

“Huh?”

“I spilled my drink on this gorgeous girl’s dress and I-I don't know but I have to properly apologize to her and try to talk with her again…” he looked at me concerningly

and scratched the back of his neck

“ I’ll try but I don't think-”

“ THANK YOU, I’ll do anything” 

“ So what does Mrs Todd look like? Huh” he grinned at me.

“ She has her hair down and was wearing a mermaid midnight blue dress with a diamond necklace”

“ Jason, there're 2547 people here and 843 females, 500 of them are wearing a dark blue dress” 

“ So what, I'm not leaving this place till I find her”

He clenched his jaw annoyed, and we started to walk around the hall.

After a while dick had his hands on his knees and panted

“I don’t think we’re gonna find the girl anytime soon Jace”

“I don’t CARE if it takes another hour or two . I'm not leaving till I get her number”

Dick signed and saw Bruce was calling him. He dragged my ass to the car and drove away. 

After 3 months I was again sitting at the same gala hall , drinking at the bar,

 when I saw her standing there near Bruce. She was in a green silk dress with her hair down again.

Traitor

And he was smiling like a genuine smile not the forced tight smile he always gives me.She was laughing at something Bruce said. Dick pushed me towards Bruce and just left me there. Bruce grabbed my shoulder and pulled me closer to him, I felt my face burn

“ And R/N meet Jason, my second son” I awkwardly waved to her, and she smiled warmly again, melting my heart faster than a glacier again.

“Jason, this is R/N a brilliant medical researcher at the Asylum”

“I think we’ve met before, Jason”

“Yeah” I scratched the back of my neck.

“And I think you already know Dick, he’s a philanthropist based in blüdhaven”

“Ooh Richard! I was actually his junior in high school. How’s he doing now?”

“Oh he’s fine” I quickly said.

“He used to be so popular in school ” 

“Oh, was he close to you?” Bruce questioned.

“Oh no, I always had awkward interactions with him.”

“What can I say, same circus, different clown….” Bruce glared at me, while she giggled. God I was trying not to smile so wide it hurt.

“So, how’s the gala going?” Bruce took another sip of his drink and questioned her.

“It’s really boring here, people talking about how many maids they have and that it takes too long to get from one place to another via private jets while drinking and eating bland food here,I’d kill to have a hot wings god! I miss em” 

Just marry me right now, maybe I wasn’t destined to be Jason Todd the maidenless after all.Im so happy I could kiss Chris.

“So Jason what do you do ?”

“I’m learning how to work in the enterprise and how to manage it” Bruce just looked at me confused with a “since when?” look on his face.

“Oh, that’s great”

“I can’t stand these fancy bland 

While she was chatting with me about her research. Someone hugged her from behind and kissed her, she gasped and kissed him back. Harvey Dent. 

“Well, Bruce how is R/N don’t we complement each other” he said as his hand tightly wrapped around her waist and she leaned into his shoulder.

“I think you're a match made in heaven” Bruce said . my suit felt tight and I couldn’t breathe, it was like I got run over by the Batmobile twice. 

“I met her at Arkham Asylum, she was devoted for the betterment of the people in the asylum. Fell for her the moment I laid my eyes on her ” he chuckled that rich laugh that could cover my hospital bills. Sure he was a golden boy who wouldn’t want to date the passionate lawyer of Gotham?. I’m just a kid loving like a sunflower reaching for a sun that was never mine.

“How old are you again R/N?” 

“Oh,I’m twenty three”

“Oh…”Harvey just stared at me before clearing his throat 

“Well, it’s getting late, so we better hurry back home.”

“ It was nice meeting you Bruce and you too Jason” She said her voice like honey.

“It was nice meeting you too, R/N” Bruce said with a wide smile.
