Yin lay back on the bed, head spinning, things shouldn't be like this, Edward was a criminal and she was a cop, it could never work. Anyway she was seeing Ethan now anyway. At this her heart skipped a beat, Ethan, he had been inside the warehouse when it was destroyed. She sat up, eyes wide at this thought, giving a gasp. She stood from the bed and sprinted towards the door, taking the handle and wrenching it down and towards her. It opened easily, much to her surprise, she had expected Edward to lock it.
She saw Edward on the other side of the room, typing furiously into a computer, and marched across the room towards him.
"What happened to Ethan?" she demanded of him, worry and fear evident in her voice. At the sound of her voice he swiveled the chair he was sitting on round, looking up at her, a look of remorse on his face.
"I'm sorry Ellen, I couldn't save him" he said, his voice showing the sorrow he felt. Standing he reached out to Yin, putting one hand on each of her arms and drawing her gently into a comforting hug. She allowed herself to wrap her arms around him and rest her head against his spandex covered chest, silent tears of grief spilling out of her eyes and down her soft cheeks.
"It's all my fault" Yin sobbed into Riddler's chest, "I should have saved him, got more re-enforcements and now, now he's…"
"I'm sorry Ellen, there was nothing either of us had done could have saved him" Riddler told her softly and sadly. He hated seeing the woman he loved in this state. "He meant a lot to you didn't he". Yin only nodded into his chest, tears still dripping down her face, finally pulling away slightly. She felt such grief, Ethan was gone, he was a lot like a brother to her, mixed with hatred of Black Mask, she vowed would kill him when she found him, not knowing he was already dead.
She was also mad at herself, she hated looking weak, especially in front of someone she liked or a criminal, now she had done both. Mad at herself she looked up at him, as if to see if he was looking down at her. Instead moved his hands up to her face, taking her cheeks in his hands and leaning into a kiss.
Pressing his lips gently against hers he felt her hand move up to run through his raven hair and her other wrapping around him, drawing him in closer.
