Moonlit Beach

Kid Flash touched his cheek where the pink haired former villainess had kissed him. "Oh, wow," He thought giddily. "She kissed me!" He was so happy, he could've cried. He stood up and looked at Jinx's retreating figure. He zoomed toward her to catch up and walked alongside her. She didn't even glance at him but she had a small smile playing on her lips and her face was still red. Kid Flash just smile contently and gently grabbed her hand. Hand in hand, they walked to the apartment.

When they reached the apartment building, Kid Flash stopped and turned to Jinx.

"Do you want to go somewhere?" He asked. Jinx looked startled by this.

"Uh. I thought we were going home?" She said, gesturing to the apartment complex. Kid Flash shook his head amiably.

"Come on, Jinx. I'm the fastest boy in the world. The world is at your fingertips! Choose a place, any place!" He said in what he thought was a very persuasive tone. Jinx sighed, defeated. She furrowed her brow, thinking where she really wanted to go.

"The night is still young. Think of all the places we could go! We could go to Mount Everest or Tokyo!" Kid Flash continued, so excited he was babbling. Jinx was barely listening. She kept thinking about where she wanted to go.

"The beach," She said quietly. Kid Flash stopped talking.

"Huh?" He leaned closer to her.

"The beach," She muttered, a little louder. Kid Flash beamed at her.

"Your wish is my command. To the beach!" He shouted excitedly. He held her bridal style and bolted. Jinx squeezed her eyes shut again. She felt a little nauseous because of how fast they were going. The only good thing was is that it only lasted a minute. When Jinx opened her eyes, she was standing at a beach. She looked around, there were only a couple people walking around the docks but they were far away.

"So, I'm curious. Why the beach?" Kid Flash asked.

"I've never been to the beach," Jinx answered, her eyes wide as she looked around. She cautiously walked toward the waves then started running towards them. She stopped abruptly when she got to the water. Carefully, she took off her shoes and timidly stuck one foot in the water. She closed her eyes in pure bliss and let out a small exhale of happiness. She felt a small gust of wind and knew the Kid Flash was next to her.

"Someone's happy," He mused. "You've never been to the beach before?" He asked, disbelievingly. Jinx was nearly waist deep in the water. She looked up.

"No," She said, thinking back, "I don't think so. I don't have any childhood memories about it, and I guess I've never had the time. Until now," Jinx added. Kid Flash joined her in the water.

"So, why now?" He asked, facing her. "Why do you want to go now?" Jinx was silent for a while, as she thought about it. But then she spoke.

"There was this picture I saw in a museum once," Jinx said quietly. "It showed this little girl making a sand castle in moonlight. The way the photographer shot it really got to me. I guess ever since then I've always longed to go to the beach. I'll show you the picture sometime. It's really good," She smiled and then suddenly splashed Kid Flash. He spluttered in shock.

"H-hey!" He said, splashing her back. But she had started running through the water. He chased her and splashed her back. She giggled and sent a small hex to the water, causing a small wave to hit Kid Flash. In return, he picked her up and dunked her fully in the water.

She resurfaced, laughing. Kid Flash helped her up and together, they burst into giggles.

"S-sorry," She gulped, shaking with laughter. "You just looked so serious. I couldn't help it," She giggled and then she realized how close he was to her. They were face to face. Jinx suddenly realized that without her boots, she had lost another three inches. They were no longer the same height and she had to look up. Kid Flash tilted his head slightly down, realizing that they were mere inches apart. He leaned toward her slowly.

"Jinx…" He started to say leaning dangerously close, but the pink hair girl pulled away.

"I… I'm going to go get dried off," Jinx said nervously. "I think he was going to kiss me," Jinx thought frantically, as she scrambled to get out of the water. Kid Flash was right next to her all of a sudden and picked her up gently and led her out of the water. He set her on the moist sand without a word. Together, they stood very awkwardly. Trying to decipher what happened.

"Maybe I was being too forward," Kid Flash thought, "But she did kiss me on the cheek," He pondered. "Maybe I shouldn't have tried to kiss her," He glanced at Jinx. She was wringing her hair out gingerly. Kid Flash zoomed suddenly away and returned with towels. He flushed crimson as he saw that she was taking off her soaked jeans.

"Uh… er… Here," He said, pointedly looking away and giving her a towel. She took it gratefully.

"Thanks. Hey, do you think you can get me some spare clothes?" Jinx asked Kid Flash, who was getting redder.

"Uh, yeah sure," He said and ran off. He came back in a few minutes.

"I wasn't sure what you liked," He said apologetically. She took the clothes. "I won't look," He offered and turned away. She giggled softly at his obvious embarrassment. She took off her shirt, but she felt nervous. He had brought her a simple purple blouse and dark jeans. She quickly changed after making sure Kid Flash wasn't looking. She walked up to him and put a hand on his shoulder.

"What do you think?" She said shyly. He turned and looked at her.

"Beautiful. As always," He said. His blue eyes were boring into hers. "Let's go home,"

She nodded. He picked her up again and bolted off. Within seconds they were back to the apartment.

"Today was very interesting," Jinx remarked as she sat on the couch. "I had fun," She admitted.

"Sorry I tried to kiss you," Kid Flash said immediately. Jinx looked up, startled. He was standing in front of her, looking down. She looked at her hands.

"Kid Flash, what are we?" She asked, a little bluntly. The question had been bugging her all day. "Am I your friend, or a roommate or what?" She looked up, "What are we?" She repeated.

Kid Flash looked at Jinx. He was unsure what to say. He sounded like a jerk if he said that she was his girlfriend. He would sound like an idiot if he said that they were just friends. They weren't. They both knew it. They were not just friends. He knew how much he liked her and knew that she had to reciprocate at least some of those feelings.

"We…. We're getting to know each other," Kid Flash said, sitting right next to her. He took a deep breath. "I… I like you, Jinx," He said, a little shakily. He saw her eyes widened and her cheeks flush red.

"I think I like you too," She whispered, playing with her hair. Kid Flash's heart soared.

"So, we're in like with each other?" He said jokingly. She smiled weakly. He sighed, becoming serious.

"But," He started, "I want to know you better before I do anything rash. I realized today that I don't know you that well at all, and you don't know me that well,"

He leaned in suddenly. "I would love to get to know you," He whispered to Jinx before kissing her cheek.

The pale skinned girl flushed a deep red.

(A/N: Thanks so much for reviewing! It's like giving me energy to write this story faster. I'm not making them a couple yet because, like I said: They've only known each other for about two days. Good things take time.

Tell me what you guys think! I didn't spend a lot of time editing it, because I got bored. But I'm already writing the next chapter

I just realized. The summary I wrote for this isn't totally correct. This story isn't really focused on Jinx becoming a good guy. It's more focused on Jinx's and Kid Flash's relationship. Oops. I'll change that later.

Thanks for reviewing, it really makes my day.)
