Synopsis : Bruce arrives just in time to save you from a situation that is a little too close from home for him...

That scene, in The Batman, where he looks at the mayor's son and just stares for a bit for obvious reason...It stuck with me. And I got the idea of writing this, Bruce making sure what happened to him never happens again. Also, maybe I wanted to write Battinson interacting with a toddler...Hope you'll like it. Comments and other reblogs always super welcomed and appreciated <3 :

_____________________________________________

In retrospect, you think it might be fate, who brought you together that night.

What were the chances that he'd be there, at that exact moment ?

He often said it himself, he couldn't be everywhere. And yet...

He found you that night. Both of you.

How could you not believe in some kind of destiny, after all these years and what you went through ?

Yes. It's been years since that night, and it's an evidence to you.

It's fate, that took Bruce's steps towards you. Fate that guided him, that made it so he would make it just in time to save you and your son...

Ah. It's funny, now. "Your son". His, too. Who would've thought, all those years ago, that your "little buddy" would become the most amazing older brother that ever existed ? Certainly not you. You were so sure, at that time, that you would only ever have one child.

And look at you now. Surrounded by family on that clear evening, eating dinner all together. All because once upon a time, on a terrible night, your path crossed the Batman's...

Oh. How very different it would've been, if fate had decided to never do its little tricks.

Ten years ago

There's some days, you just have no idea how you made it this far.

Some days, you're not sure you can keep going.

Some days you feel like it'd be oh too easy to just let it all go.

But you can't give up. If you were alone, maybe. But you're not. You have your little buddy to take care of. And you could never forgive yourself if you let him down. You didn't care what happened to you, as long as he was fine.

Nonetheless, it was tough, to be a single mother in Gotham. To be honest, it was tough to be a single mother everywhere in the world. But Gotham ? Gotham had its way of making everything worst.

You could live with the constant judgement everyone was throwing your way. People judging you without knowing your story wasn't anything new. But you had to admit, sometimes, it got old.

It's almost funny, how a life can take a radical turn in but a few moment...

One day, you're painting the nursery of your future child, happy, in love, ready to welcome this little life in the world.

The next, someone calls you to say : "There's been an accident", and all your dreams chatter.

Your fiancé was working for a building company, and lately had been on a worksite at "The Ice Lounge". You didn't like the idea of him working there. Everyone knew what this place really was full of...But the money was good. And with a baby on the way ? Yeah, of course he'd take the job.
