long gone
Reader P.o.v
I woke up with my head pounding in my skull. I sigh and sit up looking down at the red of blood all over my sheets. I touch my face and feel the rugged scars were now smooth and only a slight line would show in the mirror. I take some makeup and go over the cut so it wasn't even noticeable. I grin and when i turn around Arthur's standing in the door frame starring at me.
"I asoom your going to pack up and leave now." He whispers and I walk twords him and reach to him but he moves away.
"I wont leave unless you want me t-"
"I do so leave." He snaps and I flinch and nod my head.
"Ok then." I grab my bag that i hadn't even unpacked yet.
"I'll go then." I huff and go out to the front. The driver was already waiting on me. I turn to the house. Arthur didn't even come out to say goodbye. I look down and get in the car and the driver starts driving.
"So uh.. Where are we going?" I question and fiddle with my sweatshirt.
"About a hour out of town. He got you a small 3 bedroom house." The driver says and i snap.
"A small 3 bedroom house!? Thats huge. What am i gonns do alone? How am i gonna pay the bills with no job!?" I lay my head back and laugh sadly.
"He paid the bills for about a year and has a bunch of baby stuff and food in the house according to him" he shrugs. "You'll be fine.".
"How the fuck did he get all this money?" I question and the driver laughs.
"Robbing banks and shit. The usual villain stuff. I never knew he had a soft spot till i saw him with you. He usually just is angry but around you he almost seems normal." He says making a turn past a sign that says were leaving gotham.
I didn't say anything the rest of the ride but when we got to the house i felt my eyes tear up. It was beautiful. I walked out of the car and inside and heard the car drive away. I walk in and look around. The kitchen was fully stocked and the rooms fully furnished. I leaned agenst the door way as I saw the babys room. It was cute. There were toys everywhere and a full stock of bottles and other needed things.
I go to the bathroom and dye my hair. I just dyed it *whatever color* and then went to look for jobs.
I found a job form that you can write love letters for couples or congratulations letters. I shrugged. I figured it would be easy. A way to make people happy. I send in a form there and to multiple places for manager positions. I sigh and email in my forms then lay down. What was I suppose to do.
*one year later.*
I've had the job at the letter writing place for a while. It's pretty fun. You get to see family's grow and how peoples relationships evolved. It made me slightly sad but I got over it after a while.
I sighed and wrote out a new letter for the millers. Id been working writing there letters for a while. It was actually pretty fun.
I sighed and looked up as a man sat at the desk next to mine. He was clearly new I turned to shake his hand and looked up to him. He was well built with a mustache. I reached my hand out and he smiled and shook it slightly.
"Hello.. Im Theodore."
