Little white specks on a nice soft light brown. Tomato, lettuce, meat and last but not least wonderful, warm melted cheese of a lovely yellow. Next to it. was a glass of orange, with fresh natural goodness and pulp. Food never tasted so good when Kid Flash was not around.
Jinx lifted the food up to her mouth and took a bite. Not a munch, not a nibble, a perfect sized bite. The smell of twenty four hour fast food tasted like a hundred dollar steak to her right then. Only Kid Flash could make fast food taste like caviar. Chese melted into her senses, and the tomato she was eating, she could practically taste the redness of it. The combination of the plain patty and the green lettuce was better than any of the food Jinx had eaten in her life time. The combination of Jinx and Kid Flash.
Jinx smiled when she finally "tasted" the food she ate. On other days when she ate, she would not have an appetite like when she was with Kid Flash.
Kid Flash watched the girl savour the food like caviar and grinned. "That good huh?" While eating and savouring the food softly, Jinx decided to let herself go and say: "You have no idea."
After saying that, Jinx immediately tensed up, waiting in anticipation for Kid Flash'es reaction. Kid Flash just smirked and watched her eat intensely like a predator watching its prey.
Swallowing the last of her burger and sipping a bit of orange juice to wash it down, she finally decided to acknowledge his staring. "What are you looking at!" She asked impatiently.
A gorgoeus angel... "The way you eat." Kid Flash said plainly. Jinx stared at him in disbelief. "The way I eat..." She muttered thoughtfully. Suddenly snapping out of her trance, "Whats wrong with the way I eat?" She asked angrily.
"Nothings wrong!" Kid Flash said quickly. "Then?" Jinx pressed.
"The way you eat and drink a bit to wash down the reminants of your food. Its interesting." Kid Flash smiled.
"So interesting to stare at it for a whole half an hour?" Jinx muttered, not really expecting an answer. But being the guy Kid Flash was he always had something to say. I could stare at you all day. "Yeah! You sure are a slow eater."
Jinx-
Dark alleys, the sun is nearly up, I cant believe I stayed up all throughout the night and I still dont feel tired...and Kid Flash doesn't look tired either...
I cant do this, I cant do this, I cant do this. Its not too late. I can run back home and pretend this never happened.
'You call that home?'
Shut up!
I wasn't cut out for this...no I'm not...I cant do this I cant do this! Its not my thing...!
'Well, you seem pretty good at it.'
I'm good at everything.
'Uh huh... Except being honest with yourself.
"Where will I go? What about the Hive 5? They'll come after me... And the brotherhood of evil..."
I lie.
I know where I'll go, I know the Brotherhood of evil is just using us as pawns... I know I can take down the Hive 5...
'We can take down the Brotherhood of evil.'
Oh...
...yeah...
"Trust me." Kid Flash said oh so gently as he reached out his hand. I look at it, hmm, I could reach out and hold his hand...I should reach out and hold his hand...I want to reach out and hold his hand...
I suddenly feel my body relax after cramping up in every uncomfortable position. I took a deep breath whilst thinking doubtfully about his offer.This is it, I knew this day would come I just didn't think it'll be this soon. And in the way either. I mean...I thought of every other situation and every other circumstance and I never thought of this...
And I must admit, I like it this way. My dreams where plagued with nightmares of me being locked up in prison, kicked out of the Brotherhood of evil, get caught while robbing...I just never had a dream of a sweet caring hero changing my decision and route of life. Its almost unreal to me. Hmm, like my fairytales.
Ok, but still to be rational and logical, I will count the pro's and con's...
If I go back 'home', I'll be stuck with the losers, I'll never gain weight and grow, my conscions will haunt me, I will never sleep peacefully again, I will grow up and retire...where?
I'll go with him!
Kid Flash-
She looks rather indecisive, my speech not good enough? Hope not...Now, just a few second still her inpending descision...Gawd I feel sick. What if she doesn't go with me? What if she goes back to the Brotherhood of evil? She'll be stuck with those losers, she'll never gain weight and grow, her concions will haunt her, she'll never sleep peacefully again...I'll never sleep peacefully again!
My life was always great and is great...I have family, unlike most of my angsty hero friends, I have great friends, I got neat powers, I got more than ten roofs over my head, I dont have to worry about money and all of those things, I know where my life is headed, its going down the laneof poppy flowers, bunnies, marshmallows and happy trees.
Thats where my life is going and I like it. And when Jinx came along, my life was even better, it was awesome, I had more people to think about, I have more people to befriend, or more...I want her to have those things too! She's better than that, she deserves more than that.
Gawd, this is what girls do to you!...Make you worry... wait...breathe...ah...thats it...
I close my eyes, she can disappear if she wants to...she can pretend this never happened but I will never forget...still closing my eyes...
A soft petite hand plops down on mine. Could it be? I squeeze one eye open and see Jinx's hand on mine, hmm, it feels soft.
I flutter both eyes open and see Jinx smiling weakly at me.
I'm in...heeeaaaavvvveeeeeeeeeeeeen...♪
After this bolt of giddiness and excitement, I remember to smile back.
"Lets go."
