Joker
I never imagined how I would die or where I'd end up in the afterlife, but I did always wonder who would miss me when I was gone. Would Alex miss me? Would she tell the girls about me? Would they miss me? I highly doubt it. I mean...how can you miss someone you've never even met?
I'm sure the people of Gotham would celebrate the fact that the Clown Prince of Crime was finally dead, but that only means that another gruesome villain would step up to the plate and take over. Poor Batsy Bruce...he'll never be able to retire that bat suit.
"J? It's time." I slowly opened my eyes, turning and seeing Frost standing there. He was in a tuxedo, with a smile plastered over his face, which made me feel a little uneasy. The fuck was he so happy for?
"Time? Time for what?" I questioned.
"Your wedding, of course. Don't tell me you're getting cold feet."
"My...what?" I glanced at myself in the mirror, noticing that I too was wearing a well fitted tux. "I'm getting...married?"
"Yeah, boss. I still can't believe Alex made an honest man out of you." He chuckled. "Now let's get going." What kind of sick, twisted afterlife was this? Why is my mind continuing to play tricks on me? I followed Frost, feeling my heart beating fast in my chest, as he opened the door; revealing a beautifully decorated ballroom. There were flowers everywhere, along with twinkling lights, and there wasn't an empty seat in the entire room.
Everyone goes quiet as I walk towards the alter, standing in place, just as the music begins to play. My heart hasn't stopped racing, but at the same time...I'm oddly excited. This was something I've always wanted, but never thought I'd be able to have. To marry Alex, spend the rest of my life with her and be a father to our girls...that was the ultimate dream come true.
Alex's friend, Blue, walked down the aisle first; followed by Halo and Heaven. I couldn't help but to smile, seeing my beautiful daughters, as they threw petals everywhere; capturing the hearts of all the people in the audience. Halo has gotten so big from the very last time I saw her, and Heaven...seeing her for the first time almost brought tears to my eyes.
Once they made it to where I was standing, my eyes widened as Alex came walking down the aisle. She looked absolutely stunning in her white gown, smiling widely, as she held on to Bruce's arm. He didn't look too thrilled, which made me snicker, as he mean mugged me the whole way down the aisle. He must be jealous that I'm marrying his daughter and not him.
"Who gives this woman away?" The officiant asked.
"I do." Bruce sighed, kissing Alex's cheek. She grabbed my hand, standing in front of me, as I admired her beautiful face.
"You're so beautiful." I whispered.
"You don't look half bad yourself." She teased.
"Do you, Joker, take Alex to be your lawfully wedded wife?"
"I do."
"And do you Alex, take Joker to be your lawfully wedded husband?" He asked her.
"I do."
"By the power vested in me, by Gotham City, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss-" I didn't even let him finish, as I pulled Alex close to me and kissed her passionately. She groaned against my lips, wrapping her arms around my neck, pressing her body against mine.
"You're all mine." I murmured against her lips.
"All yours, daddy." She whispered. The crowd cheered, as we finally pulled apart. I grabbed her hand as we started walking up the aisle together, but a single gunshot stopped us in our tracks. Everything went quiet and nobody moved, as I looked around, trying to find the source of the gunshot. I didn't see anything or anyone out of the ordinary, but I could feel a burning sensation in my stomach. Looking down, I saw blood seeping through my clothes, as screams echoed in my ears.
"Oh my God, Joker!" I looked at Alex, who looked horrified, as she caught me before my body could hit the floor. Why does this seem familiar? "No! No, no, no! Stay with me, babe." She was sobbing and her white dress was now covered in blood. My blood. There was a dark shadow behind her, but I couldn't make out who it was.
"A-Alex." I stuttered, trying to warn her. When I realized who it was, my eyes widened, when I saw Harley pointing the gun at Alex's head.
"Till death do you both part, right Puddin'?" She laughed, pulling the trigger. Everything suddenly went dark and I instantly felt panic shoot through my body. What the hell just happened? Did I just die? Again?!
"What are you doing out here?" I heard, as I opened my eyes. I was now standing on the balcony, overlooking the city, with my whisky in hand.
"Just looking out at the city." I responded, turning around and seeing Alex standing in the doorway. She had on a short, silk robe that was slightly opened; revealing her white, lacy bra.
"Well I got the girls down for the night, so I thought we could have some mommy and daddy time."
"Absolutely." I downed the rest of my drink and walked towards her, grabbing ahold of the straps on her robe, pulling it open and revealing her half naked body. She slid the robe off, turning and walking towards the bed, while I followed behind her. My eyes traveled down her gorgeous body, making me yearn for her, as she turned around and eased backwards onto the bed.
"Come and get me, daddy." She smirked, spreading her legs. She always knew what to say and what to do to get me all riled up. Easing between her legs, I gave the inside of her thighs a sloppy kiss, making her shudder a bit. She ran her fingers through my hair, guiding me towards her, as I tucked her panties to the side and gave her exactly what she wanted. Her moans still sent a delicious shiver down my spine, as I buried my face in between her legs. Before I could really go to town, the familiar sound of a single gunshot rung in my ears, as everything went silent. Why the hell does this keep happening?? Whenever I'm in a happy and peaceful moment, I get fucking shot! Why?!
Then it dawned on me...I must be in my own personal Hell, where peace and happiness doesn't even exist. I guess...that makes sense. I've lived my entire life like that, so why not live the exact same way in the afterlife? Maybe...maybe I should've done things differently, but unfortunately there's no going back now. This was how I chose to live my life and if I'm being honest...I don't deserve peace and happiness. I don't deserve to be Alex's husband or a father to our girls. I deserved to be miserable and alone, which is exactly what my fate is. To be miserable and alone.
