"and who wouldn't?" He asked with a boyish grin. He grabbed eggs from the fridge and some milk

“Ha ha, very funny,” Violet said sarcastically. “And I’m sure there is somebody who does not like me very much, and not everyone knows me either.”

He shrugged "And those people suck," he declared "And thank you, I like to consider myself a humorous soul." He bowed dramatically and set the eggs on the counter, taking one of the bowls and a whisk

Violet smiled. “Since when did you become a ‘humorous soul’?” She took the other bowl and added the flour and the other dry ingredients.

He gave her a goofy grin "since always," He cracked the eggs into the bowl and added salt and pepper, along with pieces of ham

“Oh, we should write a list of the things we are running out of,” Violet pointed out, as she whisked. “That way, if either of us has time tomorrow we can go out and get groceries.”

He nodded "we need more ham, looking at the diminishing pile, oooh and chocolate, specifically dark." He glanced around "what else…."

“My bread, and I want to get more baking ingredients too, y’know for baking and stuff . . . “ She trailer off. “We should try making Macarons sometime.”

He nodded "definatly, oooh maybe we could try Biscottis afterwards….." He trailed off in thought when his phone rang. Glancing down at the caller ID he panicked "uhm I'll be right back.."
"hello?…yes this is him…where…I'll be there soon" he ended the call and grabbed his coat "I need to head out..work thing." He lied "I'll stop by the store when I get back. Text me if you think of anything else."

“Alright,” She sighed. “Make sure you get back soon, please. . . “

"I will, when do you know me for not coming back to you?" He ran out the door before she could answer and out onto the city streets "smooth Jason, and that's what we call a strike one." He muttered to himself. Once he reached his hideout in an abandoned building, he changed into his hero outfit and headed over to where his caller had sent him

Her phone vibrated. We’re here. She sighed. “Don’t be stupid.” She muttered under her breath and walked back to her room.

Jason ran a hand through his hair and grinned ." Let's do this" he ran to the nearest building and hauled himself up by a fires escape. He ran across the roof tops, his signature coat dealing behind him "Im here, come find me."

“Why don’t you come and try to find us kind sir, hey?” They said sarcastically then laughed. “Stop waiting for the battle to come to you and take some action-No! Sto-“ Silence followed. If they screamed, they would be found.

He stopped in confusion "why hide if you want a fight?" He started to walk fowards "I'm sorry about hurting you last time, Can I be forgiven?" He asked, starting to get cocky

“Getting a little arrogant now, are you? How funny, I might’ve liked you before,” They said. “You could have saved me, you could have changed me, made me better, but you didn’t.” Venom was laced into their words, much like the poison in the hero’s veins, the projectile dissolved into their skin, left unnoticed.

(oh damn…the poison part…oh nu)
He stopped in his tracks "I'm here now, I can help you now. All you have to do is let me." He said, glancing around but not being able to find a person to match the voice "My intent was never to hurt you."

“Bla, bla, blah. You had your chance, you could have saved me when my mind was still changeable, still able to believe in what it was told. And what was your intent anyways, if you’re fighting me, how is that helping?”

"at least it distracted you from hurting others." He was getting desperate, vying for anytime he could get. "If your mind is so unchangeable, how come you're not out, fighting me?"

“I’m waiting, you’re rather slow. Hurry it up, I’m getting bored.” A crackle signalled that there would be no more talking between the two.

"maybe if you would showed yourself, we could have some fun." He walked fowards towards he sound

"Tik tok, sunny boy.” They whispered and smiled a bright smile in the others direction.

"I've got all the time in the world, if only it'll stop you from hurting those that I love." He called out, rounding a corner and sprinting to another building

“Wow, that hurt don't ya’ think?” They laughed. “How pathetic.”
~~~
Were you being stupid and wasting time?
Maybe…
Violet sighed then clicked on another contact.
Will you be back soon, Jason? It’s been awhile already.

"to you, sure." He rolled his eyes "I'm done playing your endless game of cat and mouse. Come out." He glanced around desperately
