I looked around the kitchen to see what ingredients I have, looks like I have everything to make some porridge. Great, it'll be a nice comfort food. After I finished cooking, I head back to my bedroom, bringing two bowls of porridge for us to eat. "Hey, do you like porri--, what are you doing?" I asked, as I saw her already standing up and looking around my room.

"Hmm? oh, I was bored so I decided to look around" she said, nonchalantly at that. "Okay, first, shouldn't you lay down for now, and second, here, I make you some porridge?" I say as I put the porridge on the counter. "Thanks, and I told you I heal fast, see?" she lifted her costume to show me the wound around her stomach. I saw that her wounds already healed up quite well. Whoa, she's pretty tone- NO, BEGONE UNHOLY THOUGHTS. I immediately avert my gaze, seems like she noticed it as I hear her giggling.

"You were looking so closely at my stomach before, but now you're blushing?" there's a hint of mockery in her voice, "Damn it, I'm sorry for blushing okay, I'm a virgin" I thought to myself. "Okay that's different, I was so focused and worried about treating your wound that I don't see anything else" Her eye narrows down, somehow I can feel that she's smirking under that mask. "Ohooo, so you see everything else just now? is that it?" she get's closer to me as she said that, her face right in front of mine. "You know that's not what I meant, anyway, let's eat before it get's cold" I said as I pass her bowl of porridge. "*chukle*, thank you" she grabbed the bowl, and we both sat down on the bed to enjoy our meal.

"Soo, what's your name?" she asked.

"y/n, and you are?" I turn to ask her.

"Dude..." she pointed to her mask, partially lifted, revealing her mouth and nose.

"Oh right, sorry..." Although I am really curious about her, I don't want to overstep my boundaries.

"Tell you what, if we ever to somehow meet again, I'll tell you anything you want" she said.

"You will?!?; I mean, you trust me that much?" I said, trying to calm myself in the middle of it.

"y/n, you're someone who found a wounded person in a dark alley, insist on treating them, and then carry said person to your own place when they said they don't want to go to the hospital;  without knowing if they're dangerous or not. Of course I trust you" She stops, and then after a brief pause, she turns her body away from mine, and starts fiddling with something. 

"Give me your hand" she said. So I gave her my right hand, and she puts something on my wrist. It was a paracord bracelet with the color of her costume. "Wear this bracelet everyday from now on, okay?" she says as she tightens the bracelet. "Sure... , but why?" I asked, confused with her request. "I'll tell you later, right now I gottta bounce" she said as she makes her way towards the window of my room.

"Wait, you're going home??" I asked

"Yup, I've healed up enough already" she said.

"Oh..., I thought..."I pause, "you're staying"  I said under my breath.

She stopped for a moment and looked back at me, "I heard that you know". 

"Wha- what are you talking about?" I said, trying to calm myself down, she can't possibly heard the last part, right?

"I have very good hearing y/n, very very good hearing" she said, I can see her smiling under her mask.

Fuck.

She giggles for a bit, I hate this, but I also love the sound of her laugh. This is weird, why am I like this. Her voice pull me out of my thoughts, "I have curfew today, maybe if you're lucky, someday I can spend the night" she said. I can feel myself becoming even redder than I already have.

"You're so adorable..." She said, I was taken aback hearing her say that, but it seems like she doesn't mean to say that out loud either. She seemed just as surprised as I was, there's also a tint of red creeping up her cheeks, "This is my chance" I thought to myself. "Oh, so I'm adorable huh?" grinning as I said that, trying to at least get back to her for putting me in an roller coaster of emotions.

She quickly turns around and open the window, "Bye y/n, I'm going now, the porridge was delicious, thanks" she said as she started to step out from the window. "Hey, wait-" I said as I'm approaching the window, but before I even get there, she waved at me and jumped from the window. I almost have a heart attack when she does that, but then, I saw her swinging from building to building. Seriously, that girl keeps surprising me.
