[ He was quiet a long moment when she asked her question, the free hand idly tracing patterns around her belly button while he pondered his words. ]
I don't think I knew happiness before you, Harleen, but now? This life we've made, I dare say it is happiness, it is something I do not see myself being able to live without if we somehow parted. You've bewitched me, Dr. Quinzel.
[ She turned around with a lot of sloshing water so she could throw her arms around him and kiss him. Harley had loved the party lifestyle and constant nights on the town with the Joker, but part of her had always hoped he would one day settle down and the two of them would have a life ... Well. Like this one.
[ A suprised noise escaped him when she turned, the slosh clearly unexpected and yet, he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her softly in return. Pulling back enough to speak but let their lips brush.]
To repeat, I want you to be you. You make me feel this way just as you are. Please don't try to change to make me happy, just, don't let other men touch you as I would. That is my only real rule.
[ Harley was satisfied with staying in his arms and sneaking kisses until the water started to cool, then she step out of the tub and offered a hand to help him up as well. ]
[ Harley roughly patted herself dry with the towel and tossed it back over the rack. She lingered in the bathroom to wipe off her makeup and wash her face before joining him in the bedroom, where she pulled on an old t-shirt and crawled under the covers. It wouldn't take long at all for her to drift off to sleep on his shoulder with one arm slung over his body.

[ She let go of one hand and trailed her fingers over the lean muscles of his leg. ]
Are you?

We can revisit that one later, but maybe. Who would you have in mind?
no subject
I dunno, nobody in particular, but you never know when the opportunity will pop up!
no subject
We can talk about it then.

Let's get some sleep. It's been a long night.
no subject
Yes, that sounds like an excellent plan.
[ Grabbing a towel and offering her one, he could worry about gathering the clothes in the morning, she was right it had been a long night.]

She'd be in a good mood for days after tonight. ]
