I don't think I fell asleep again that night. The moon ran it's course over the sky, shifting the shadows on the ground. I didn't want to dream again, see that man's face in my mind. I remained half-awake, staring off into the dark corners of the room. I hated myself. Before this, when I had been out on my own, I hadn't had time to think about this. It had always been about surviving, getting through another day of little food, dirty water, and no rest. Now I could think, nestled up in that soft bed with warm covers without a worry; Except I didn't want to think, not now.

The sun eventually came up, and I had not stopped staring at the same dark corner. That was how Alfred found me. He knocked on the door smartly, before entering. I shifted my eyes up to look at him.

"Sleep well Miss?" He asked, going over to the window and opening the curtain all the way so my eyes were hit with the golden morning light. I didn't answer his question.

"Master Wayne went out early, so you will be having breakfast alone I'm afraid. It will be served in 20 minutes, just down the stairs and to the left," Alfred gave me a small bow, before turning and leaving the room, shutting the door with a snap.

I stretched, rubbing my eyes and sat up. I felt exhausted, two days of this relaxation made me cushy. One night of no sleep and I was already feeling it. I had gone longer with less sleep, walking and working instead to get where I had to. I could go a week without feeling like this before.

Now, as I stood up, I stumbled from sleepiness. I didn't even bother getting into the clothes Alfred brought me last night. I pushed my hair back off of my face, and opened the door. I sleepily wandered down the hall, down the stairs, to where Alfred had breakfast on the table; one plate for me. Breakfast smelled delicious, even better than what Bane had given me on the plane; light yellow eggs, crisp bacon and two slices of toast with a glass of juice on the side. Once again, I realized how out of my comfort zone I was. Breakfast was on a white plate, lined with what looked like gold and the orange juice was in a crystal glass with a stem.

"I hope breakfast is to your satisfaction Miss," Alfred said, as I sat down at the table.

"Thank you, Alfred," I said quietly, picking up the silver fork and poking at my eggs with it. I didn't feel hungry. I stared at the food on my plate, but all I saw was the man from my nightmare.

"Is everything alright, Miss?" Alfred had been watching me.

"Yeah, sorry. I guess I'm not that hungry,"

"Missing home? I understand Miss. I haven't seen England in many years now. I've been working for the Wayne family for a long time, probably since before you were born unless you look very young for your age," I couldn't help but smile a little.

"I guess, this place is just so big and fancy compared to everywhere else I've been. I don't have a home to miss now, I just feel out of place here," I sighed, putting down my fork. No matter how much a poked and prodded my food, I wasn't getting any hungrier.

"Very well Miss. I'll just take that from you. If you get hungry, please do not hesitate to ask for something. Master Wayne should be home within the hour," Alfred took my still full plate and left the dining room, leaving me to think some more about stuff I didn't want to think about.

I didn't want to stay here any longer. I didn't want to live in the big fancy house of someone I didn't know. I couldn't sleep in a soft bed, eat well prepared food, and have a cushy lifestyle with some guy that just decided to take me home at 1 AM. I wasn't a charity case, and yet I realized that was how Bruce Wayne must view me. That being said, I wanted to go back to Bane. Yes, he did also (literally) pick me up and decide to take me home but I had been going to a place I would have done anything to avoid. I felt like, to Bane, I wasn't a charity case. There was something different. And, I realized, I missed him. How could I not miss a man who protected me from something so awful? Even if his girlfriend did make me feel very unwelcome.
