This is set sometime soon after Lightspeed. Just a random thought I had that I finally had time to write.
Standard disclaimers apply.
Jinx sat on a bench in the park, knees drawn in close to her chest. It was late, so she felt confident that she was alone.
Scratch that.
She felt a gust of wind and looked over at the grinning speedster who had materialized next to her on the bench.
Jinx sighed. "What do you want?"
"What? No, 'Hello Kid Flash, I've been dying to see you'?"
"Hello Kid Flash, I've been dying to see you," Jinx said in a monotone, finishing it off with an eye roll.
He smiled brightly and said, "See? That wasn't so bad now, was it?"
"Why are you here?"
"Is it such a crime to want to see you?"
"For you it is! Especially when I just wanted to be alone."
"You win tonight Jinxie – I'll leave."
Before Jinx could snap at him for calling her 'Jinxie', she felt a soft pressure against her lips then saw the yellow and red blur that meant Kid Flash was leaving. She quickly put two and two together and growled, storming off in the direction Kid Flash had gone. After searching for a while, she stopped in the middle an alley and sighed.
"What to I have to do? Rob a bank?" she thought aloud, unknowingly using the same words as Madame Rouge when the shape shifter had also been trying to find Kid Flash.
"No need. Here I am," came Kid Flash's voice from behind her.
Jinx turned to give Kid Flash an appraising look. "You know," she said, "maybe you should have been a villain instead. You certainly have potential as a thief…"
Kid Flash's eyes went wide in shock. "What are you talking about? I've never stolen anything in my life!"
Jinx stepped closer to him, a mischievous look in her eyes. "Well, you did just steal a kiss from me. You didn't even have the decency to make it a proper one."
Kid Flash stepped back, sure that Jinx was about to hex his lips off or something like that, and ran into the wall of the alley. Jinx matched his step with one of hers, and then took another, so that there was practically no distance between them. She then did something totally unexpected. Kid Flash nearly went into shock as Jinx put her hand on his neck and pulled him down into a kiss. After a moment, Kid Flash realized what was happening and responded accordingly. He grabbed her waist and pulled her even closer to him, angling his head to deepen the kiss. This was nothing like the chaste kiss he had placed upon her lips earlier. This one was full of heat and held-back emotions. The pulled apart for a second to breathe, cut when Kid Flash tried to kiss her again, she stepped out of his embrace, grinning wickedly.
"That was just a demonstration of what a proper kiss should be like." She turned and started walking away, leaving a dumbfounded Kid Flash staring after her.
"You… you temptress!" he finally managed to choke out.
"You know you love it," she called back over her shoulder.
She felt another gust of wind and looked down in front of her to see a red rose with a small note attached. Smiling slightly, she picked up the flower and read the message.
Yeah, I do.
Kid Flash sped off, but not before he had seen Jinx's smile grow wider as she tucked the note into her pocket and headed home.
Thank you, as always, for reading, and please review to let me know what you thought.
