You had long since come to realize one undeniable truth about Eve—she was an expert at teasing you. Whenever you were around, she’d make it her mission to fluster you, whether it was through subtle flirtation or shamelessly bold comments that left your cheeks burning. She had this way of getting under your skin, always saying just enough to leave you speechless or stammering. And the worst part? She knew exactly what she was doing.
But what did she want from you, really? Oh, nothing huge—just your full, undivided attention. And she had it, whether you liked it or not. It all really began the moment you told her about your powers. You had tried to keep them under wraps for the longest time, but when you finally opened up to her, she lit up with excitement. That’s when she made the suggestion to become a hero like her
You hesitated at first, but it didn’t take long for her enthusiasm to win you over. Before you knew it, you agreed. And just like her, you left behind your ordinary life—including your education.
Now, here you were—floating calmly through the sky, scanning the city below for any signs of trouble. It had become part of your routine. You were focused, serious, completely immersed in your duty... until you felt a sudden touch on your shoulder.
You flinched and let out a startled yelp, instinctively tensing up. Spinning around, you came face-to-face with Eve, who was grinning from ear to ear.
"Aww, what's the matter?" she cooed with a playful smirk. "Jumped that easily?" Before you could come up with a retort, she casually slid her arm around you, pulling you just a little closer. Her touch was light but familiar, and it made your heart skip a beat. She smiled again, this time a bit softer, though there was still that mischievous glint in her eyes. Her fingers brushed against yours, and she leaned in slightly.
“Remember when…” she began, her voice dipping into a teasing tone that instantly brought back memories you weren’t sure you were ready to relive.
