Drabble: Heartless
Title: Heartless
Pairing: Bruce/Clark, Clark/?
Rating: PG
Word Count: 250

Author's Note: The first sentence is (almost) directly taken from Writing Fix's Sentance Starter
Bruce laughed loudly at a joke that only he heard.
It was not even that funny, Bruce thought. Nothing ever was anymore.
He thought he could do this. He thought he could continue on after... but no, given the looks that were being bestowed upon him, he couldn't.
He had laughed at one of the society parties again, when no one was telling a joke.
Bruce knew that he was starting to seriously worry people - Lucius, Dick, Alfred. But how could he explain to them what was happening to him? That his very soul was being ripped out of his body every time he saw Clark with...her.
A person who he could never compete against, even if he tried.
Clark didn't know of course. He never now would know how Bruce's heart shattered every time he saw her, every time he saw them together and he had to watch her receive all of Clark's love, wanting nothing more than to be on the receiving end of one of those loving looks. But he never would be.
After all, Clark was a man of his word, and once he promised you something, he never broke his vow.
Bruce knew he needed to get himself together, start building himself again in the ruins of his shattered life.
To become the heartless being so many thought he was.
Wait.
'Heartless'
Bruce started to laugh loudly again. Yes, he was heartless.
After all, Clark had stolen his heart from the moment they met.

*hugs the Bat* Being secretly destroyed is one of my kinks with him, I loved this piece!

Okay, now I must admit to have a desperate desire to see more of that kind of scene, where all the awfulness of Batman/Bruce's life breaks through into the Brucie life and everything goes to hell all at once and in public. I could see Clark and Dick and Alfred all thinking at first that it was an act for some reason, having it dawn on them that he really was totally losing it...
Doubt I could write it (*glances at the person she knows breaks Bruce better than anyone*) but this story has really made me think about how horrifying it would be...

Ooohhhh... I want to see it too!

I'm intrigued by this idea, so I might have to steal it from you, Star! see where Bruce goes with the crazy. Probably will break less than I expect but in a different way. He does things like that...
Made me think of little Jokerized Timmy, for some reason.
