Author's note: A series of one-shots where Matt and Foggy lay the past out on the table. Their conversation takes place after Daredevil season finale.

The Many Lies of Foggy Nelson

Are you telling me that since I've known you, anytime I wasn't telling the truth, you knew?

And what, you just played along?

Basically.

"So I figure you owe me a few more answers," Foggy said to Matt, sitting across from him in Matt's living room. Things had slowly gotten better between them since Fisk had been put away, and he had turned his reputation as the "devil of Hell's Kitchen" into the now much beloved Daredevil. But Matt knew this conversation was coming. He owed Foggy for years of lies.

"That's fair. What do you want to know?"

Foggy looked down at his beer, not sure how to phrase what he wanted to ask next. "I want to know about any time you used your Jedi powers to see through my lies and what you did about it. And anytime you lied to me because you thought you were protecting me from something."

Matt sighed. This was going to be a much more difficult conversation than he thought. "Okay. Did you have a particular moment in mind to start with?"

"Yeah. The time I had a girl under the bed."

Lie #1: The Girl Under the Bed

Matt could hear Foggy and his date fooling around before he made his way up the stairs to their dorm room. He paused at the door, trying to decide whether to go in or not. He listened for a moment, not trying to be invasive, but trying to hear just enough to tell if they were finished or not. They were talking and giggling now, so it was probably safe enough to enter.

When Matt put his key in the door, he heard frantic movements inside. They'd heard him now and apparently didn't want to be caught. Matt debated a moment before turning the doorknob whether or not to go in. It was 2:00 in the morning, he was dead tired from studying at the library, and he had an 8 o'clock class. Foggy would just have to suffer a little embarrassment.

Matt stepped into his and Foggy's room which was suddenly quiet. But not quiet enough for Matt Murdock's ears. He could hear Foggy lying on his bed, still trying to catch his breath. He could also, unfortunately, tell that Foggy was wearing nothing under the sheet that was covering him. He could also hear—and smell—a woman holding her breath, trying hard not to giggle, underneath Foggy's bed. She also was wearing nothing but one of Foggy's t-shirts.

Matt was tired, but he thought he might could have little fun with this situation.

"Oh, hey, Matt," Foggy said between breaths, trying hard not to pant. "I thought you were studying at the library tonight."

"I was," Matt replied, setting his bag and cane down and sitting on the edge of his own bed. "I've been there for five hours. Thought it might be time to get some sleep."

"Five hours!" Foggy yelled. More stifled giggled came from under the bed. "What the hell time is it?"

"It 2:00. Sorry, did I wake you when I came in?" Matt grinned, waiting for Foggy to confess.

Foggy shifted uncomfortably on his bed. "Uh, yeah. I was asleep. I didn't realize it was so late."

"So, did you get some studying in?" Matt grinned, trying to hold back laughter. He wondered how long he could drag this out before Foggy gave up.

"Oh, yeah, studying…I got in a few hours. But then, as you can see, I fell asleep." Foggy laughed, nervously. "Need my brain sleep before I do more studying. You know how it is. Hey, you're probably pretty tired and ready to go to bed. You can have the bathroom first. All yours buddy."

"Well, we do have that big exam in Criminal Law tomorrow. I thought we might quiz each other for a few hours."

Foggy's mouth dropped open. "Like right now? I mean it's kinda late, and you have class early…"

"Well, we're both up, might as well take advantage of it." Matt could smell Foggy starting to sweat and hear the girl under the bed starting to get restless. It was time to let him off the hook a little bit.

"How about I go get us some coffee while you wake up a little more."

Matt could hear the relief in Foggy's voice. "Coffee! Yes! Great idea. I'll, uh, just find my notes while you're gone."

"Great." Matt picked up his cane. He walked towards the door and stopped before leaving. He just couldn't resist one more thing.

"By the way, your mom called earlier today. Said to be sure to tell her Foggy Bear she sends big hugs and kisses."

Foggy flushed, embarrassed. "Oh, uh, thanks Matt. I'll be sure to call her tomorrow."

Matt left and shut the door behind him. He stood outside for a moment to listen.

He could hear Foggy helping the giggling girl up from under the bed. "Sorry. I didn't think he was ever going to leave."

"Foggy Bear?" The girl broke into a fit of giggles. "Foggy Bear!"

"Shut up, Marci."

Matt could hear them starting to go at it again, so he figured he'd better take his time coming back.

"I knew it! I fucking knew it! You knew she was under there the whole time!" Foggy laughed, not seeming angry at all. "Bastard."

Matt chuckled. "Sorry. I just couldn't help it."
