Good in bad // the joker Jared Leto fanfic

24 - ditch

I approach the door and just admire it. This is it! This is what I've been waiting for, and yet somewhat I feel guilt.

I knock on the door a couple of times and begin to wait.. I start to tap my feet. I just don't know how to feel.

The door slowly opens, my face lights up for a second but I then notice I meet my eyes with a man who I don't know.

"Uh.." I only managed to say.

He looks at me funny, "who are you?" He questions. I begin to rub my neck in confusion.

Than suddenly the next apartment door swings open. I furrow my eyebrows as I see it's the bartender guy again.

"I'll see you soon baby." He leaves out the door. I am almost speechless because I am so confused and unaware.

"Uh I think I might've gotten the wrong door?" I say awkwardly to the man. He nods understandingly. Fuck I think I was at the wrong door..

I make my way towards the bartender dude, In which I totally forgot his name.

"Wait, Violet??" I hear Lindsey say loudly. I quickly turn my head realizing she's standing there.

"Lindsey!!" I run up to her and hug her. As I was hugging her I felt as if for a second everything was okay and nothing had changed.

"Get inside this damn apartment now!" She pulls me inside almost worried.

The bartender guy had a shocked expression on his face. "Ben, it's okay, just go to work, I'll call you later!" Lindsey tells him.

He nods continuing to look at me and walks away. Lindsey quickly closed the door and immediately turns around.

I lightly smile at her as I notice a small baby bump. Fuck the tears are so ready to come........ No Violet! You're strong!

"Violet.." She covers her mouth. I chuckle a little. "Hi"

Lindsey just looks at me with sad eyes. "What has he done to you?" She chokes. I shake my head so tired.

"It wasn't the joker." I let her know. Lindsey shakes her head insanely. "Violet, you've been beaten up.." She says continuing to stare.

"I know I know, just come sit down.. I'll explain everything." I walk towards the couch and sit. She follows and turns down TV.

She needs to know the whole story- she deserves to.

~~~~~~~~~

The only sound that was filling my ears was the background tv.

Lindsey went off to bed because she had a late night yesterday. Man things in my life has changed so fast since this whole idea to move to New York ever came up.

Lindsey is so scared for me. Anything can happen, and she knows it. I told her everything she needed to know about the situation with Robin and the phone call with joker and even Tyler..

Which makes me remember again.. Tyler and josh.. It's for sure they definitely know about me ditching.

I curl into a ball snuggling into my cozy blanket. I rest my head onto a pillow. I let out a sigh and begin to close my eyes. I am so tired. It's so late too.

I soon hear a buzzing go off on the coffee table. I reopen my eyes and adjust them a bit because I can barley concentrate.

It's my phone, well.. Actually Tyler's spare phone.. Someone's calling. But who'd be calling?

I sit up a little more. I pick up the phone and not recognize the number as much. I am gonna pick up anyway, what do I got to lose.

"Hello?" I ask tiredly.

I hear a low chuckle, "I knew you'd pick up" I feel my chest go heavy as I immediately recognize the voice.

"Mister J." I only answer back.

"You know what would be a really nice thing to do?" He leaves off a question. I reposition myself and open my eyes wider feeling a bit more awake now.

I can't believe it's him but I still feel tired as hell.

"What's that?" I play along.

"Tell me where you are." He then says in a serious tone. I feel my heart jump a little. I sigh into the phone.

"Look it's late mister J, and I really need some rest.. How about you call again tomorrow. I would really like talking to you about some things too." I hope he agrees.

I hear a small sigh, "of course darling, get your sleep, it's gonna be a big day tomorrow of course."

I pause, "actually nah not really, I don't have that much to do other than eat and go back sleep." I correct him. 

"Except you're missing one thing.." He speaks huskily through the phone.

"-but I'll call you tomorrow of course like you said, so sweet dreams Violet." He adds quickly before I got the chance to.

"Ok.. Well goodnight J ." I nod even though he can't see me and hang up.

I am so tired I knew I just couldn't talk anymore.. But I guess I'll be talking to him tomorrow.. The more I think harder about this call the blurry it's becoming to me.

Okay I am definitely going to bed.
