Heyyy everyone! A few years ago I took a creative writing class and we learned about Microfiction, which is just a really short short story... and I wrote one, not for class... just for fun. I was going to write one of these a day... but that never happened. Maybe I'll start doing this more often again? Also I've revised this a bit... so I guess it isn't that much of a throwback... but you know.
The Halloween Party
It was at a Halloween Party that they met. She only went to the party to upstage her ex's new girlfriend. He was only going to impress the cute intern at his office that he thought might like him. He wanted to dress as Batman, but seeing as how a Batman movie just came out... he decided against it. He dressed as Robin instead, figuring there would probably be no other Robins.
She dressed as Sexy Batgirl. Not slutty BatGirl, because she didn't want to actually get back with her ex. She just wanted to look good enough so that she could rub it in his face, not because she liked revenge but because she liked Justice. She was cheated on, and he needed to see what he was missing out on.
When she saw Robin, she couldn't help but laugh. A superhero party and someone was dressed as Robin! Maybe she should talk to this guy... he was kind of cute.
"Hey Boy Wonder," she said, "Want a drink?"
"Nahhh," he said. He couldn't focus on Batgirl right now, he had spotted the intern, dressed as Poison Ivy. He wondered why she decided to dress as a villain when he knew that she was such a sweet girl... well he thought anyway. "I'm kind of here with that Poison Ivy over there."
Batgirl spotted Poison Ivy, and she knew right away... that was her! That was the girl her Ex cheated on her with. She then saw her ex retrieving punch for them both... he was dressed as The Joker. As were most other guys at the party.
"You're with her," Batgirl asked, confused.
"Well, I guess I'm not really with her. She's an intern at my office. I think she likes me," he said "She spilled coffee on me one time."
"Well I hate to break it to you buddy, but she's here with that Joker over there. He's my ex... He cheated on me with her."
"Really! Holy Betrayal Batgirl," Robin exclaimed. "She seemed so sweet. And just looks so nice."
"Well," Batgirl said "villains have to protect their identity too!"
"I only came here tonight to impress her," Robin said "I feel like I've wasted the night."
"I just came here to upstage her. That's even worse," Batgirl said, " I really don't even care about what my ex or her think of me."
They exchanged glances for a moment. Robin looked behind her Batgirl mask deep into her eyes. They were the most beautiful green eyes he'd ever seen. She started blushing because no one had ever looked at her that way before.
"I'm Dave," Robin said.
"I'm Laurie," Batgirl said "How about we ditch this place and go fight crime or something."
"Or we could ditch the costumes and get dinner instead," Dave said.
And so they ditched their costumes and started a wonderful life together.
THE END!
Byeee!
