Chapter 1 : More Roses

Jinx walked along the snowy street with nowhere left to go. She had just left the Hive 5, and thought that she should have probably left at a warmer time of year. The snow was cold and miserable and soaked her clothing in the process of falling. She didn't have money, food or a place to stay and all of this because of that stupid speedster.

He just ran into her life, turned it upside down and ran back out as fast he ran in. If he never came along she would have been warm, in her secret layer with her supposed "friends", but at the same time completely fed-up and lonely. She hated him and she never wanted to see him again, yet she couldn't stop thinking about him, she couldn't get his picture out of her mind.

"His blue eyes… Those beautiful blue eyes… What was I thinking about again?" He distracted her that easily against her will, she couldn't concentrate on robberies anymore with her team, one of the reasons she left them, all she could think of were his words.

You could do better.

All of a sudden a gust of wind that happened to be orange blew by. She looked up at her hand, and as she predicted, there was a red rose, but this one had a note attached to it.

Jinx,

Meet me at the park at 5.

Yours till the end.

There was a red lightening bolt where his signature should have been. She smelt the rose in her hands and put it in her bag where it wouldn't die from the cold. She had secretly kept all of his roses, she didn't know why but she felt attached to them even though she hated him. It was a nice gesture and no one had ever really done that before.

She looked at the clock in a corner store, 4 : 45. I should start walking to the park, she thought. Right as she arrived, she suddenly changed her mind. She didn't know why she had so voluntarily gone to the park, she wasn't about to start following his orders. She could take care of herself and didn't want to give him the wrong impression that she liked him or anything. So with that she turned to leave, but noticed at her feet another message attached to a rose.

This one only had an address, obviously his. Jinx was now in a serious mental debate. She didn't want to go to him, but she also had nowhere to stay and living on the streets was not exactly fun. Her want for a warm place to stay overpowered her independent side and she headed off towards his address.
