Chapter 4
Kid woke up later than usual, with staying up so late yesterday and all the events that went on he was pretty worn out, the sun was high in the sky when he finally woke up. As he sat up in bed and noticed the empty spot next to him he couldn't help but laugh. "Typical Jinxy always the one to bail, Oh well" Kid said as he got up and stretched "She'll be back."
Meanwhile downtown Jinx felt as though she was losing her mind. "Did I really do that? Did I really go to HIM for help?" Jinx said as she was walking aimlessly down the street. "I must be losing my touch, the old me would've gone down fighting and break out of jail the next day if I wasn't successful." After about an hour of internally scolding herself Jinx finally calmed down.
"I have to stop associating myself with him, this is just gonna be another Stone situation" Jinx thought as she sat in the corner of a dingy café. "I'll give in and he'll just start expecting me to change for him, but I won't that's not who I am. I'm bad that's who I am and who I will always be." Jinx thought as she sipped the coffee she ordered. "All those heros they're all the same. They don't understand and they never will. If I let myself fall for him it'll just burn me in the end, he's nothing but a weakness. Someone who just wants me to change for the good of the world, but the world has never shown me kindness so I won't break my neck trying to save it." Jinx decided as she walked out of the café and into the world.
Later on as clouds covered the sky and it was almost dark, Jinx wandered around she had nowhere to sleep she even tried going back to her bed of jackets only to find several homeless people fighting over the raggy clothes. She sighed to herself she was Jinx dammit and she wasn't going to give in easily she continued to walk on and tried to sleep on a nearby bench. She almost was asleep when she felt wet drops landing all over her. "Shit, just my luck" Jinx sighed as she stood up and made her way to a bar the only thing open at this time of night.
She dried off and warmed up some "I won't give in I just won't!" Jinx exclaimed and startled several drunks. She went back out onto the street in the pouring rain and she just couldn't take anymore.
"Just my luck, I have the worst luck, damn him and his home, Just damn it all" Jinx said all the way to the place she swore she wouldn't go. She climbed the familiar fire escape and snuck in the window, she then rumaged through the drawers till she found the comfy lightning bolt shirt he had her wear the other day and at that point she just didn't care.
No doubt he was out on patrol at this time of night as a villainess she knew right now was the best time for pulling heists. She was too tired to search for pants and the ones she wore last time were scratchy and annoying. Besides the shirt was so big on her it almost reached her knees. Jinx then got under the covers and snuggled into the warm sheets not caring for Kid Flash and whatever comments he had for what she was doing.
Kid Flash had been out on patrol for a few hours now any criminal he came across he rushed to jail so he had a lot of down time. Around 2am his shift was over and he head back home after an uneventful day. Once he reached his room he didn't expect to find Jinx there again with her stubborness but then he noticed the rain outside and put two and two together.
"You know Jinxy you're so cruel just using me for my bed" Kid Flash said laughing as he got into bed next to her. She then kicked him for his dumb comment. "Ouch, you know I could just kick you out for that" Kid said jokingly. "Just try me, I could kill you in your sleep and have this bed all to myself if I really felt like it." Jinx said turning over to glare at him. "Oh but you wouldn't do that Jinxy you aren't cruel enough" Kid said staring her down "You really think I wouldn't kill someone? You don't know me very well at all" Jinx said deepening her glare. "Actually I think I know you better than you know yourself" Kid said seriously. "Yeah right whatever Kid just go to bed" Jinx said pulling the covers higher and closing her eyes.
"Sure Jinxy" Kid said before he stole a quick kiss from her and turned over. "Ugh stop doing that too me!" Jinx scolded him. "Only when you stop being so cute Jinxy" Kid said smiling to himself on his side of the bed. "Whatever" Jinx said before she drifted off.
