#also if it is this is absolutely when Quentin found out kay was a vigilante

[witchofinterest]

“sorry i knocked you out in that bar fight last night, but i brought you to the hospital and stuck around ‘til you woke up to apologize” + jaykay 👀

this is so them!!! okay set b4 they find out eachothers identity’s!

Kay had never slept in a hospital chair before. Six hours ago she never thought she’d be able to, but apparently she had nodded off. Moving to stand up, she found out why.

It hurt to stand up, and she stretched out, making it worse. Slumping her shoulders slightly to avoid it, she looked at the sleeping patient once again. He was really cute, which was really bad, since she had knocked him out yesterday. She knew letting Quentin and Will talk her into going to the bar with them was a horrible idea.

She twisted her arms, popping her elbow like a knuckle. That noise woke him up, eyes snapping open as she put her arms down to her sides.

“Where the fuck am I?” he asked, getting his bearings.

“You’re at the hospital,” she explained, nodding “Uh, how much do you remember from last night?”

“I was at the bar with my friend Molly and her friends when one of them got into a fight with this other guy and when I went to end it I got fuckin knocked out,” he said, pushing a hand against his head.

“Ah, well then I can apologize properly, I knocked you out and I’m so sorry, I was trying to get the guy harassing my friend Quentin and he moved and you were right there,” she ended, taking a deep breathe.

Jason just nodded, sitting up fully. He looked her up and down before smiling.

“No harm babe, how’s your friend?” he asked, getting off the bed.

“Uhh, he’s good, are you sure you should be getting up right now?” she asked, looking around for a nurse.

“It’s cool, so you knock guys out often?” he stretched out his arm and then his neck.

“No, first time in a bar and a barfight. Sorry again,” she re-apologized, finally making eye contact. He really didn’t seem mad which was making her more embarrassed.

“It’s okay, but I know a way you can make it up to me?” he said, a small smile teasing at his lips.

“Sure, what?”

“Take me on a date,” he requested, fully smiling.

Kay was speechless. This was something out of a dream. She had punched her longest running celebrity crush and now he wanted to go on a date. She wasn’t a big fan-fiction person but this was right out of one.

She was overthinking this. If Will found out she let this pass he’d kill her.

But before she could respond, he said “Hey, if you don’t want to it’s alright,”

“No, I, I do. Here,” she pulled a piece of paper from her pocket that turned out to be a flyer for one of Will’s games and grabbed the pen from the nurses board, scrawling her number.

“I’ll set something up and you can text me,” she said, giving it to him.

“I will,” he promised, taking a look at the digits.

“Kay, what’s that short for?” he asked, but before she could answer, three people walked in. Bruce Wayne, Lucius Fox and Quentin.

Quentin grabbed her hand and gave it a squeeze. She wasn’t sure if this was an apology for leaving her in the ER with Jason or a thank you for sticking up for him. She squeezed back either way.

“Jason, who’s your friend?” Bruce asked and Kay really wanted to shrink into the wall. Her pale pink shirt was the same color, maybe it would work.

“This is Katherine Mulaney,” Lucius introduced her himself “she and Quentin go to the same university.”

“Well it was nice of you to stay with him Katherine,” Bruce said and Kay just nodded.

“Sure was,” Jason teased from his position of Bruce forcing him back on the bed.

“You two have class, correct?” Lucius asked and Quentin answered yes for them.

After a quick round of good-byes, they absconded from the hospital room and out into the street.

“Was it just me or was Jason Todd totally flirting with you,” he asked.

“He was,” Kay stated, her phone chirping before she could elaborate.

“And you’re not losing your mind?” he questioned her as he leaned over to read her text message.

“Hey K. lmk the details asap so I can ditch these security guards 😉- J.” it read.

“The details for what Katherine?”
