"They say we are asleep until we fall in love
We are children of dust and ashes
But when we fall in love we wake up
And we are a god and angels weep
But if I die here tonight
I die in my sleep"

Rhea threaded her fingers through her hair as she dropped off another thief. She nudged at Matt, "Have you packed?"
"Yes."
Rhea climbed up the side of the fire escape of Matt's apartment complex. Once near his apartment, she popped the window open and hopped inside. Once in, she pulled her mask off, "That's good to hear. Are you excited?"
"Not as excited as you."
Rhea hummed in response to this as she started to put her suit away and slipped into her normal clothes, "Okay, are you just not excited because you can't jump around doing vigilante stuff while out of Hell's Kitchen?"
"I never said I wasn't excited."
"But you're not as excited as me." Rhea pointed out to him once she was completely changed, "We should get some rest. We need to make it to the airport in..." She checked the time on her phone, "-six hours."
"Just pass out here and let Zoe know."
"Good point." Rhea flopped directly onto his couch and propped her legs up onto the armrest, "Are you okay with flying, by the way?"
"I should be fine." Matt admitted to her as he walked out of his room in sweats and a shirt. "What made you suddenly want to vacation?"
"I don't know." Rhea tugged her knees up to her chest and hugged them close, "It just felt right. Especially after what we've all been through with Fisk."
"I guess I can understand that." Matt reached for one of his armchairs and sat on the edge of it, "Get some rest."
Rhea tilted her head to the side and smiled at him, "You too."
The next morning, all six met up at the airport. Benicia had a single case and small backpack. She had an oversized black hoodie on that was completely zipped shut, normal blue jeans, and her red converse. Karen had her hair clipped back and was wearing a baby blue summer dress with white flats. Zoe had a black crop top with metal hooks keeping it closed in the front and high waisted dark blue jeans. Foggy was in jeans and a graphic t-shirt. Rhea had on a black summer dress with red flowers lining the bottom of the hem with sandals. While Matt was in one of his normal suits.
"You know-" Zoe stared at Matt's clothes with a long sigh as she wiped at her eyes. She was still a little tired, Karen had to wake her up, "-You could have at least dressed for summer."
"What's wrong with what I'm wearing?"
"It's a vacation."
Rhea shrugged her shoulders from beside him, "Let's take this chit chat in line first."
Benicia eyed Matt for a moment, "I hope you actually packed normal clothes."
He released a laugh and reached for his suitcase, "And if I didn't?"
