Y/N seemed distant.

I could've told her she never fixed me up correctly and if I don't get treated by the time my side unthaws I'm facing a high fever from affection. But that meant she'd put more trust in the Hero organization that can barely keep their papers from being stolen from a villain.

It'd make me seem weak. And if the LOV was actually on my tail seconds from getting their revenge... they'd spot my weakness. I understand there's less hero's around now-a-days.... They probably know everything about me now.

I turned my head to glance at Y/N... she looked out of the car window, legs crossed, arms folded around her stomach. When's the last time I took her out on a date?

"Hungry?" I ask. A few seconds pass before she answers.

"I could eat...." She spoke softly.

Okay... now we're getting somewhere.... What is she in the mood for?

My mind ponders for a second, I suck in a breath through my teeth,"How about a bar?"

"The Golden Dragon is a bar. If you showed up we could've been getting drinks." I could hear the condescension in her tone, it was bitter and distasteful.

Baby..... You must think I didn't want you off to everyone slack-jawed at your performance...

But no one is gonna talk so disrespectfully about you....

"Oh," I say, just as sarcastic as her, "They have a bar there?" I could see a small smile peek through her resting features. I chuckle softly.

What can I do to make it up to her....

My eyes widen in realization. It'd take some more steps till we get to the main event of me making it up to her tonight...... but this is a good first step.

".... How... How about I make it up to you tonight?" She looked over to me, her eyes big brown and innocent. "After I take you out on a date-"

"You're taking me out on a date?" She smiles.

"Yes." I snicker nervously, "I'd like to take you out. Tonight. On a date... Preferably somewhere You like alcohol or not."

She leaned back in her seat and re-adjust her legs so they crossed more comfortably, "Well..."

I swallow hard, almost scared to tell her how I want to make it up after the date. I contemplate it and decide to ask when we get back to the apartment. 

"There's a New spot open... I was gonna try it.... Eventually, I think going with you is better."

Oh?.....
