You skillfully duck a punch and slam your hand against the mans chest. He grunts and stumbles, giving you the perfect opportunity to swing your leg against his feet which knocks him to the floor.

You turn and dodge a heavily tattooed fist, then grab his forearm and flip over you body.

A man grabs your arm and shoves you against the wall, only for you to turn around and slam his head onto the dumpster.

When you look around for anymore men, something hard is smashes onto the back of you head.

You come to when a slap is delivered to your cheek.

"Open you eyes," Someone growls, his Russian accent thick.

A dull pounding in the back of your head makes you groan.

"We know you're awake,"

Cracking your eyes open, you scan the room. "You damn Russians never give up, do you?"

He raises his hand and punches you. "We have been chasing you for a very long time,"

You turn and spit out blood. "Seems like you've found me,"

"Now, why don't you tell me about the Man in the Mask?"

You tiredly look up and smile loosely. "Who?"

He scoffs and turns around. Just when you think he's going to leave you alone, he spins around and lands a punch so hard to your cheek, the chair tilts sideways and slams into the ground.

When your head hits the pavement, your vision spots. At that moment, the man standing above you suddenly drops to the floor.

"I'm going to get you out of here, okay?" A soft voice says, making you nod.

You feel his hands untie the bindings around your wrists and ankles, then you're suddenly in his arms.

"I can walk," You grumble, but black out the second you finish your sentence.

You walk into Nelson & Murdock's office and set down your things.

"Oh my God!" Karen hisses, making you jump.

"What-?"

"What happened to your face!" She rushes over to your desk and cringes at you. "Oh my God, did you get mugged?"

"Something like that," You mutter, giving her a small smile. "I'm fine, Karen."

She furrows her eyebrows. "I told you you shouldn't walk home alone,"

You pat you purse. "I've got my pepper spray with me, so I'll be fine. Now, I've gotta get Matt some coffee. I'll talk to you later okay?"

After you've poured him a cup, you head to his door and knock.

"Come in," He says.

You step into the room and hand him the cup. "I made you coffee,"

He smiles and reaches out for the glass, which you carefully place in his hand.

"Thank you, (Y/n)." He murmurs, setting down the cup after taking a sip and walking over to you.

You frown. "Did I add too much milk?"

"No, no. I- I just think that it's time that I tell you something." He says.

"You're firing me?"

He pauses. "What? Why would I-"

You sigh. "First last night now this?"

"Last night? Is that why Karen was asking why you got mugged? Are you hurt?"

You shake your head. "It doesn't matter, I'll go collect my things."

"(Y/n), I am not firing you!" Matt chuckles, waving his hand forward until he's found you. "I have to tell you-"

"Your touching my chest, Matt."

He yanks his hand back and laughs nervously. "Oh, uh, sorry. I don't exactly have the best eyesight."

You scoff and grab his hand to place on your shoulder, but he holds your hand tightly.

"I need to tell you something," He says.

You nod, but realize he can't see you and you say, "Okay,"

He sucks in a breath. "I am in completely in love with you,"

Your eyes widen and your heart jumps out of your chest. "You-I- You're what?"

"I'm in love-"

"Yeah, no, no, I heard that. I mean, it's just that-"

"You don't feel the same?"

You laugh. "God no, I totally feel the same its just-"

"Oh thank Christ," he moans, pulling your closer until his face is inches from yours. "I don't know where your lips are, so if you would so kindly show me-"

You silence him by capturing his lips in yours.

Foggy grumpily hands Karen a crumpled up 10 and crosses his arms. "That's no far. Girls are way better at this love stuff than guys. You cheated."

Karen scoffs. "I did not cheat. And gender has nothing to do with seeing that they're clearly in love. You're even more blind than Matt."

Matt breaks the kiss for air, and shouts, "I heard that!"

Foggy scrambles into his office, and Karen back to her desk.

You smile at Matt. "How'd you hear that?"

"Ever hear of the Man in the Mask?"
