confused and screwed
gk!harvey dent x wife!reader
note: takes place in 1x10, this is long overdue considering i didn’t know how to end it and i forgot what happens in the episode😭 i have two more harvey imagines coming today or tomorrow (one is a cute fluff and the other is based on 1x11 and i’m so sad about the finale next week!
you awoke to someone calling your name. “hello?? anyone there?? wake up sunshine!”
you stirred, trying to focus on whoever was calling you, but receiving a harsh slap to your left cheek ended up doing the trick.
jolting awake, you tried to figure out where you were. last you remembered, you were walking to your car, you felt a prick in your neck, and everything went black.
now you were bound to a chair, heavy chains encircling your wrists. panic set in very quickly as you took in the situation.
beside you, was your husband, harvey dent, wearing a straight jacket, it was a horrid sight. but what stood before you was much, much worse.
“hiya hon, you recognize me?”
you couldn’t believe it. “jane..?”
“oh, so you do!?”
you didn’t know her directly, but you knew of her and how harvey had been the one to put her in arkham asylum. “vaguely…” you replied slowly, glancing over at your husband with worried eyes.
beside jane stood a young girl, one who you recognized from the media, duela doe, one of the fugitives who was being framed for killing batman.
“harvey, what-what’s going on?”
“oh met me explain, dear.” you glanced at the woman before you, and there was no denying how afraid you were. she had this crazed look in her eyes, she was in arkham for being insane, but being face to face with someone like her was terrifying.
“well you see, i have a bit of a past with your sweet harvey here. turns out he’s got some very dirty laundry.”
you tilted your head in confusion, eyes narrowing, “what are you talking about?”
“yeah… mom, i don’t really understand. i mean, i get it, he locked you up but i thought that was the extent of it.” duela said.
at this, jane let out a guttural laugh, “oh my, duela, no. you see…” she took a moment to glance at you, “well, you pay attention to hon. you see, to make a very long story short… i fell for him.”
this confession shocked you.
you and harvey had been together since your sophomore year and his senior year of college. and yet, you’ve never heard of jane like this.
harvey wouldn’t cheat on you.
you were sure of that.
“i fell for handsome, charming, insatiable, harvey dent.”
“ew,” duela commented under her breath. but you, you didn’t know what to think. you were never the jealous type. but hearing someone like jane talk about her husband in such a way, you were physically unable to not be jealous.
“he’d go around, telling everyone he didn’t know me! it was absolutely insane!”
“no, jane, we were not together.”
“oh please, harvey, i haven’t even gotten to the best part!” jane exclaimed, her voice jumping up octaves.
“jane, you were obsessed. you sent my secretary a cow tongue! you were delusional!” harvey protested, glancing over at you, he needed you to know that nothing happened.
he needed you to know that he loved you, that he’d never have an affair, not with jane doe of all people.
“let me continue, listen up for this part, mrs. dent, you remember those late nights? where harvey here was out at the office…?”
slowly, you nodded. afraid that if she didn’t show some form of response, jane would flip.
“well guess what girlie? he wasn’t working nights… he was with me.”
you let out a shakey breath, “w-what..”
“mhmmm, truth hurts, mrs. dent, but your lovely fiancé was ignoring me by day and fucking me senseless by night.”
anger pulsed through your veins. you didn’t even know if this was factual, by just the thought of it. it was enough to drive you to the brink of madness.
“you’re lying.” you spat.
“oh am i? how would you feel if i told you, it wasn’t just one time. but dozens of times. almost as though he couldn’t get enough.”
duela stared at her mother in confusion, “wait, so.. you and harvey dent here… were a thing? he gaslighted you… into thinking you were crazy but still slept with you..?”
“mhmm. a two-faced asshole! harvey dent, everyone! the most dangerous man in gotham!”
“wait… you said my father was the most dangerous man in gotham.”
her father. duela doe was known as the joker’s daughter.
“ah, well, surprise surprise, my dear, it’s time to meet your real father, harvey dent!”
time around you seemed to freeze completely as the words echoed throughout your mind.
no.
no.
this wasn’t possible.
you glanced over at your husband, who seemed just as surprised as you were. how had he not known?
but then, you remembered.
his psychological disorder. he struggled to control it during the time before jane’s sentence, just as he was struggling to control it now.
your harvey wasn’t in control during his time with jane. it was the other one.
you were so engrossed with your thoughts, that you didn’t notice that jane had retrieved a small handgun from her purse, passing it to duela.
“now, you can get your revenge. he kept us separated for years. make him pay for it.”
panic seized you as you pulled against the restraints, “wait! no, don’t do this, please. we can explain!”
but neither of them was having it.
“come on due, pull that trigger.”
“duela, let me explain please. it was a misunderstanding.”
“he stole your childhood, he stole me away! kill him duela!”
“no! please!”
BAM!
a scream tore from your throat as the gun fired, hitting harvey in the chest, throwing him back.
“no!!” you exclaimed, tears streaming down your cheeks, you glanced at the mother-daughter duo, “what the fuck is wrong with you??”
jane smirked, approaching you, “more like what the fuck is wrong with you? marrying a guy like that? shame on you.”
you choked back a sob, glancing at harvey’s dying body, “no..”
“night-night sugar.”
you felt pain explode in the back of your skull, then everything went black.
