Damaged - A Joker Fanfiction {COMPLETE}

Chapter 10; Blackgate Prison

Guys, it's actually pretty funny cause I use Harley gifs although, ya know. 😬 She dead.

-PRESENT DAY; JULY 10th, 2016-

-ATHENA-

I stood in the cell, looking out of the rain covered window. It had been a few months now and I had almost lost all hope. J had never waited this long before to get me. I knew it was all too good to be true. Even after I had given myself to him the night before he fucking set me up.

Before we had left for GRIN that night, I knew something was off.

-2 MONTHS EARLIER-

I wandered the halls of the house, looking for J. He had been in the room when I went to take a shower, but he wasn't there when I got out and he told me he would be.

I turn the corner, J and Frost standing in the doorway of the hall, their backs to me. I almost said something, but I heard J speak.

"Jonny, boy." He says, his voice raspy with tiredness. "You look scared."

I furrow my eyebrows, backing away slowly. Why would Frost be scared? I've never known him to be scared of anything.

"Do I?" Frost asks in monotonous tone. "I don't mean to. It's just...Boss, I have a bad feeling about this. She's not the same average girl you kidnapped. She's just like you now, she's dangerous."

"Frost," he sighs, turning to look at him. "Don't remind me."

-PRESENT DAY-

I should've known. I find myself gripping foot of the uncomfortable metal bed in my cell, tears slowly rolling down my cheeks. The first time I had cried since J had came into my hotel room that night. Why would he fight so hard for me, just to get me caught? Just to set me up to be trapped in here for the rest of my life?

I drop to my knees, the voices in my head surging. They had only gotten worse in here.

He's not coming.

He never loved you.

Over and over again for the past 3 months. I groan quietly, burying my face in my hands. I couldn't cry hard or loud. Crying wasn't a thing you should do in Blackgate. Not loud for anyone to hear, anyways. 

I hear footsteps echo down the call, causing me to quickly stand and wipe away my tears. I rush to the bars in the little window of my door. The guard walks past and I stop him by calling his name.

"Henson!" I whisper to him. He glances back at me before turning around and coming to look at me through the window.

"What?" He smirks at me. I put on a big, fake smile. He always chews his gum obnoxiously and he smells of disgusting tobacco.

"You got anything for me to play with today?" I bite my lip, grabbing the bars in the window and bounce on my tip toes. He blows a bubble and pops it, reminding me of Harleen and making me clench my jaw. If it weren't for the skinny bars, I would reach out and snatch the gum out of his mouth, his teeth along with it. I've already had a few incidents with guards though, which is why they give me such a small window with bars so close together.

"No, Athena. And you know the rules," He rolls his eyes and nods his head to my hands gripping the bars. "Keep off the bars."
