Gold and silver line my heart

But burned into my brain are these stolen images

...

I've nothing without you

All my dreams and all the lights mean

Nothing without you

- Without You by Lana Del Rey


"I know what you want."

Enchantress's words echoed through Harley's mind. Suddenly she felt sleepy. All noises around her were muffled, ultimately dying out. Instead, they were replaced by soft, soothing music. It was calm and pleasant.

She stood in a kitchen, holding a baby on her arm. Why was she here? Why was she carrying a baby? And more importantly, why were their curlers in her hair? Her skin wasn't pale either, like it should be. To put it shortly: she looked… normal.

A man walked into the room. Who was he? She didn't know him. He wore a nice suit and his hair was brown, neatly styled. She had never seen him before. Or maybe she had? There was something familiar about his eyes. Blue. Hypnotic. Then, slowly, his mouth cracked open into a wide smile. His smile.

He approached her and they greeted each other with a light kiss. She smiled back at him. He proceeded with saying hello to their other little one. He grabbed the small child's outstretched hand and gently kissed its forehead.

Harley had seen something similar to this before. In her dreams. She wanted to have a family, but this white picket fence life that played out in front of her… it was out of her reach. It was such a perfect image. Too good to be true. They were happy. They were normal. But Harley knew deep down that "normal" would never be a word that could describe her life. "Normal" would forever be a setting on the dryer. Still, she couldn't help but think that maybe, just maybe, if they had had a normal life… he would still be here. Because without him... her dream was pointless.


A/N: I know this is super short! I'm sorry about that! I felt like I needed to update though, because it's been a while. I've started college now, so I won't have that much time for writing, which means you're probably going to have to wait a little longer in between chapters, I'm afraid. :( I'm thinking there will be either two or three more chapters to this story and then it's a wrap! I have another fic planned for Joker and Harley that is a whole new, original idea, so I'm excited for that, but like I said, I won't be able to write that much. Hope you understand!
