The Joker was not sure how to react. Once in his psychotic life, he was utterly speechless. Did Harley just tell him...did she... just now...express her feelings for him? Right infront of him? In this instant?
Why?
He did not understand. Or rather, could not understand. He never heard anyone tell him that they loved him. He heard hated, but not love.
She had to be more insane than he was! Was that even possible? No it couldn't be... She had to be lying. She just had to be. He would not deal with this!
He shoved her away from him. "Don't bullshit with me, Harley." He hissed in a warning tone. "Now go do your duties before I get real pissed."
She looked incredibly hurt. But she put on an angry face. She put her hands on her hips. "Why do you have to be like that? You always shove me away... Why? Can you not be cold-hearted towards me for once? Even after I have expressed and told you how much I...I--"
Smack! Thud!
Harley was sent down onto the ground, hard. She looked up at him with fear in her icy blue eyes. "Why do you act this way?!" She demanded, more hurt than she ever was.
"GET OUT! NOW!" He roared.
"No! Tell me why you act this way!" She demanded again.
He let out a sigh. An irritated, pissed off sigh. He walked up to her, his boots hitting the floor with loud thuds. She scooted away from him in fear, trying to get away from him. And his rage. He stopped and a grin spread across his face.
"You see, Harley. You don't love me." He smirked.
Her eyes grew wide. "Yes, I do. I do love you." She stuttered.
"Then why are you backing away from me? Huh? And why do you stutter? You don't love me. You fear me. You fear me like you should."
"But--"
"And it WILL always remain that way. You work for me and fear me. That will never change." He told her bitterly and turned his back on her. "Now get out!" He ordered with venom in his tone.
Harley just sat there on the ground, holding her cheek, and looking up at him with wide eyes. Hot tears welled up in her eyes and they started to fall. She got off the floor and ran out of the room, slamming the door after her.
THe Joker twitched a little when he heard the door slam. He didn't know why he twitched. And he suddenly felt...guilty? Was that the word? Well, whatever. He shouldn't feel that way. Harley's a fool. She could never love him. What an idiotic ideal!
It made him feel sick. It made him feel weak. It made him...
He slammed his fist into the wall. He felt guilty?! Why?! Should he apologize? ******** no! That's stupid! The Joker does NOT apologize for nothing!
