Fics like I Can Still Hear Your Silence (You Said I'm Holding on to Heartache)

He has Batman’s heartbeat memorized. It’s a few ticks slower than everyone else. It’s calming, and it’s something Clark listens to more than he should. Far more. When they’re next to each other. When they’re fighting together. When Clark is lying in bed at night, anxious without reason, he closes his eyes and listens for that familiar drum beat. He doesn’t track it, doesn’t listen for how far it is or where it’s located. He can’t risk accidentally revealing Batman’s identity. He just listens. It’s like a strange sort of lullaby, and it works every time. It's a dependency, he knows. - Or, Batman installs lead in his suit, and Superman can't hear his heartbeat anymore. It's all chaos from there.
