Jinx stared at her plush unicorn on her bed as she rested her head on her pillow.
Why am I so damn offended? And why didn't I steal anything? Jinx thought frustrated.
"I hate this!" Jinx screamed jumping off of her bed, she felt weak and pathetic. Jinx stormed through her bedroom door and towards the common room in her headquarters, nothing would make her feel better than taking a little frustration out on those idiots that she lived with. She flung the door open enjoying the bang it made as it crashed against the wall, the boys all jumped and looked up at her with fear in their eyes. A cold feeling swept through Jinx as words ran through her head,
you don't have to hurt others to feel good about yourself you know…
Jinx gritted her teeth, why did that Kid Flash have to ruin all her fun, she realized now that the boys were staring at her cautiously.
"Keep it down, I can hear your stupid games in my bedroom." Jinx said numbly after a moment, a deafening moment of silence rang through the room before she turned on her heel and wandered back towards her bedroom.
Jinx leaned on her door and sighed, her eyes shifted over to the roses that Kid Flash had given her, their delicate sent wafted over to her. Jinx crawled onto her bed and, laying down, pulled her sketchpad towards herself. She idly let her pencil drift over the paper, not paying any attention to what she was drawing she was more than a little surprised to see Kid Flash's face looking up at her from the paper. Jinx let out a frustrated scream and hurled the sketchpad across the room where it crumpled on the floor sadly. Why did that flame-haired speedster have to invade every aspect of her life?
Jinx looked over at the abandoned sketchpad in the corner of her room, with a sad sigh she got up and retrieved it from its sad crumpled state. Gently she smoothed out the creases she stared at the picture. Kid Flash was attractive, if inconceivably annoying, she was especially pleased with how his eyes had come out; gentle, charming and caring. Accurate to say the least.
Jinx bit her lip and picked up her coloured pencils and began making Kid Flash's hair a burning red.
"Know thy enemy I guess." Jinx said to herself as she coloured in Kid Flash's pale blue and almost translucent eyes.
It wasn't until five AM that Kid Flash vibrated his way through Jinx's bedroom wall, he walked forward through Jinx's room in an attempt to be quiet. This attempt was ruined by him tripping ungracefully over something on the floor and landing face first with a loud thud, he lay terrified on her bedroom floor, his body paralyzed with fear, Jinx only murmured and rolled over in her sleep. Kid Flash tried to keep his mind off of the vast amount of bare skin she was showing wearing just a cropped top and a pair of skimpy underwear, it was more than a little difficult. He picked up the thing he'd tripped over.
"Aaah, sketchbook!" He grinned flipping through the pages, "unicorn, unicorn, unicorns, and oh… me." He stopped suddenly. His own face stared up at him from the paper, it was carefully drawn and almost photographic, certainly a step up from unicorns. He felt himself staring into his own eyes, they were the most interesting bit of the picture, they felt so piercing, like they could see into his soul, were his eyes really like that?
"What made you do this then?" Kid Flash murmured shuffling over to the side of Jinx's bed and looking down at her sleeping face.
"Why'd you come to the party? Were you looking for me?" Kid Flash asked the sleeping girl, gently he brushed some hair out of her eyes.
"It wouldn't be too much of a leap to guess I was there, superheroes always have to attend those boring things. You weren't committing a crime, not any that I knew of anyway, so that wasn't why you were there." He carried on, resting his head on the mattress.
"Or did you go there to commit a crime and change your mind when you got there? Did you feel good avoiding committing a crime? Are you finally seeing the light? Or… did I just get to you before you could do anything?" Kid Flash continued dejectedly, he stood up and walked around to the other side of her bed and laid down rolling over so they were face to face.
"I know I'm not wasting my time with you, I know you're good, I just wish you'd give me a sign that anything I say to you is sinking in." Kid Flash sighed rolling onto his back and staring at the ceiling, Jinx had glow in the dark stars stuck to her ceiling, he grinned, he had those when he was a little kid.
"You know," Kid Flash said rolling back to look at Jinx, "You're incredibly beautiful, I have this feeling that I might be starting to fall in love with you. I don't usually do love so I don't know, you're attractive and fascinating, you're a big puzzle and I feel like I know everything about you." Kid Flash burbled excitedly, he paused and his face saddened a little.
"And then I feel like I know nothing at all, I don't know if you despise me, tolerate me or if deep down you like me. Even if I do manage to make you good you may still avoid me like the plague then too." He said sadly.
Silence fell between them, which wasn't surprising as half of the people concerned in the conversation had been asleep for hours.
"God… I'm so tired. I haven't even slept yet, that damn party went on so long and I've run around the city so much that I'm just… so… tired." Kid Flash yawned snuggling into the pillow under his head.
"I can't fall asleep… you'd kill me if you found me here." Kid Flash yawned again, his eyelids feeling heavy, why was Jinx's bed so warm? And why was it so… soft?
Dahdah da da dadah dah dahdah! Kid Flash's Titan comminicator beeped obnoxiously, Kid Flash jerked awake. In what would seem like slow motion to Jinx Kid Flash watched as her eyes began to open, he squaked and darted under her bed.
"OFF! OFF!" He hissed fumbling with the buttons, with no choice he smashed it against the ground beneath him, the damn thing let of one more feeble beep before going to the big communicator in the sky.
"Wha?" Jinx mumbled above him, he watched the mattress move above him as she sat up. Flash hardly dared to breathe as her feet touched the floor mere inches from his head as she stood up.
"Urgh, what was that?" Jinx muttered opening her door.
"GIZMO! KEEP IT THE HELL DOWN!" Jinx screamed out of the door, Kid Flash breathed a sigh of relief, he'd forgotten Gizmo's workshop was near Jinx's room. Kid Flash's eyes widened to the size of dinnerplates as Jinx's cropped top hit the floor near him. Kid Flash forced his eyes to stare at the mattress above him.
"Good guys don't look, good guys don't look." Kid Flash repeated to himself under his breath, his eyes slid sideways to see Jinx's underwear being flung across the room into the laundry basket across the room. Kid Flash clamped his hands over his eyes despararetly resisting the teenage boy inside of himself. It wasn't until he heard the bathroom door shut and the shower start that he dared remove his hands from his eyes.
Kid Flash hurridly picked up every last peice of his smashed communicator before wriggling out from under Jinx's bed and taking a running dash towards vibrating through the wall. Kid Flash stopped running about twenty miles away at which point he was on top of the atlantic ocean, he slowed down and let himself fall into the icy cold water.
"ACK!" He sqeaked shivvering.
"Maybe i shouldn't be sneaking into her room." He muttered treading water and still blushing.
"Certainly isn't hero behavior." He shivvered as he swam slowly back to shore.
