[Jonah's POV]

A few weeks have passed, and I've gotten a rose and a picture of Ivy. I've sent her some cookies that look like sunflowers and also some heart-shaped ones. Today was the day of the field trip, but I was worried cause Jacob, another classmate, was given Scarecrow, and lately, he's been a bit off. So as we get on the bus, I read her last letter.

[Letter Begins]

"So tomorrow you're coming to see me. I hope everything goes okay. Well, goodnight, and also, I have big news when you get here, so please dont freak out."

[Letter Ends]

As we pulled up, we were made for walking to the building on the bridge. When we entered, I was directed to a window where I saw red hair. I smiled and picked up the phone.

Jonah: "Hello Ivy."

Pamela: "Hi Jonah, I'm glad to talk to you face to face."

Jonah: "I am too. You're more beautiful in person than in your picture."

Pamela: "Thank you."

As we talked more, I felt something. This was interrupted, though, by a foul smell.

Jonah: "What is that smell?"

Pamela: "Jonah, are you alright?"

I then pass out on the floors.

[Pamela's POV]

I watch everyone pass out, but my eyes are primarily focused on Jonah. I then hear Joker.

Joker: "My fellow inmates, allow me to send you to freedom."

Bane then walked in and activated his venom, allowing him to smash through the wall to the outside. Everyone ran except me as I grabbed Jonah and made sure he was alright. After a few hours, everyone woke up, and the police arrived. Gordon brought me into the cafeteria to question me on the breakout, specifically why I didn't run.

Gordon: "So why didn't you run with the others."

I said nothing as I held Jonah's first photo he sent me.

Gordon: "Ivy, have you fallen for him?"

I say nothing as I nod.

Pamela: "Could I see him physically before he leaves?"

He nodded and went to get him.

Jonah: "Hey Ivy."

I ran up to him and hugged him, trying not to kiss him. His back is to Gordon, and I saw him writing something in his notebook. He turned it, and I saw what it said: 'Kiss him.'

Pamela: "Close your eyes."'

Jonah: "Why?"

Pamela: "Could you please do this for me?"

Jonah: "Fine."

He closes his eyes, and I kiss him on the lips.

Pamela: "Now get going."

he opened his eyes and gave me another hug.

Gordon: "He's a good reason to stay on the good path, but you still have to wait for a year."

Pamela: "That's fine."

As I went back to my cell and dreamed about my and Jonah's potential future together.
