Death In Gotham

Chapter Four

Weeks passed and Morrigan and Jason fell into a routine as they became more familiar with one another.

On Mondays they met up at a local cafe and had breakfast and coffee while discussing the book being studied in their shared Classics class, sometimes even helping the other with the assignment set at the time. Over time they did have conversations about things other than their university classes and started to talk about more personal topics. It was a little uncomfortable at first but over time it became the norm.

Then they headed their separate ways, both going to jobs they hadn't disclosed; Morrigan going to help guide souls from Gotham to the underworld, a job sullied by how many of those souls were children from all over Gotham but mainly concentrated in Crime Alley whereas Jason went off to his job at Wayne Enterprises that Bruce gave him after they stopped trying to kill one another (though it still gets attempted every now and then but its not important) where he is now the head of security.

On Tuesdays, Morrigan cooked them breakfast, or at least she tried and Jason would eventually end up taking over the entire thing. Each time he took over Jason would say that it is the last time he is going to do it, but he always ends up doing it again. Then Jason would drive them to their midday Classics lecture in his car that was now out of the shop.

After that Morrigan would have an hour before her Ancient History Class that she would either spend in the University library or with friends she made outside of Jason in her other class. On the other hand Jason would either head to the cave or his apartment and work some of the cases that have come up.

On Wednesdays they didn't really see each other that much, as Morrigan had a morning off which she spent working for her father or on assignments and then she had another Ancient History class and then a ballet class with Jason's sister Cass, not that Morrigan knew that they were siblings.

On the other hand Jason had a morning class of English Literature, and then the rest of the afternoon worked at WE, mostly annoying Tim, and Bruce when he was actually in the office. Some Wednesdays the pair had dinner together, but not often enough to become an official part of the schedule.

Thursdays were a day where neither party had any fixed arrangements and were usually used as catch up days. Sometimes the two would spend a few hours together or something.

For example just a week ago, Morrigan had Jason take her to a motorbike dealership in one of the nicest areas off Gotham, a place with actual security, so she could pick out a bike so he wouldn't be stuck driving her places since he insisted she shouldn't take public transport. In the end Morrigan ended up getting a Kawasaki H2R. It will be denied that both she and Jason spent at least two hours going over the risks and benefits of each make and style before deciding.

Fridays weren't as busy as Morrigan had a ballet class in the morning and then a midday Classics class, leaving the afternoon free for her to travel to camp. Jason only had the midday Classics class and then the afternoon and morning off, which was usually spent researching, either for papers or cases.

The weekends were spent out of their apartments, with Morrigan shadow travelling to camp on friday evening just in time for the campfire and returning sunday afternoon. Jason's weekends varied each time from being with the Waynes to being with the outlaws to being on a mission or just spending it alone at home with a book.

Although, once a month they had dinner on the Sunday evening, usually at a restaurant they had discovered over the previous month. Despite having known each other for at least 2 months by this point, Morrigan and Jason still knew very little about the other's personal lives, and that was no accident. Morrigan was used to having to lie and hide her real life due to her heritage and Jason had grown up on secrets, from being a street kid lying about where he got money to being head of security at a fortune 500 company who moonlighted as a vigilante/anti-hero.
