Chapter 5 : More Couch Escapades
She felt his warm breath on her neck and turned around a little too quickly and bumped into him. She was about to fall backwards off the bed when he grabbed her hips and pulled her towards him.
"Sorry to give you a scare but you should have seen your face it was priceless! Your eyes bulged out and everything!" Kid Flash was laughing as if he didn't realize that he hadn't let go of her hips and they were pushed together way too close for comfort.
"Um… Yeah…" She started and looked down at his hands on her hips.
"Oh sorry." He let go of her reluctantly and she sat on the bed again. He sat next to her.
"Can I ask you a question?" Jinx asked.
"Sure, fire away."
"Um…" The question her mind had asked her had been nagging her now and it was bothering her immensely, "why are you being so nice to me? I mean, I used to be a villain…"
He paused for a moment.
"Isn't it obvious?"
She had no idea what he was talking about, what he had just said confused her even more and she didn't like this feeling. To avoid more confusion she just left it at that.
"Look you want to just go watch T.V. or something?" He asked her.
"Sure." She replied.
They sat on the couch together watching T.V. and eventually he laid his head next to her lap and when she thought that he was asleep started to play with strands of his hair.
Kid Flash however wasn't as asleep as Jinx thought he was and realized what she was doing.
"Mmmmmm… That's nice…" He said and decided to move his head sleepily onto her lap.
Jinx's eyes bulged open in shock. She thought he was asleep and wouldn't notice this little act of affection but she was so wrong. She stopped immediately.
"Hey that felt good…" He stated as he looked up at her dreamily. She was tired so she just resumed playing with his hair absentmindedly while his head rested on her lap.
Was this even possible? Kid Flash thought as he lazily drifted off to sleep with a dopey smile on his face.
Jinx couldn't help but admit that he looked adorable just laying there in her lap. She wished they could stay like that forever.
Later Jinx followed and they were asleep in another one of their couch escapades.
