MM · Hell´s Kitchen
New York was a chaotic city. Thousands of people trying to make the most out of the crazy circumstances their daily life offers. When you got pulled into this job a couple of years ago, you never thought it would become a long-term gig. Now, you consider a number of remarkable people your friends - even family. And as you weren't one for the attention and spotlight, this type of mission was perfect.
Being undercover was fun- especially when the simple recon-mission was low risk. The aim of your mission? To obtain the identity of the night vigilante who was gaining quite the reputation and the attention of your boss- Nick Fury. He liked to keep tabs on people who could be useful on future operations, and he knew the Devil of Hell's Kitchen had a lot to offer. However, working night shifts on two questionable establishments to gather information was tiring.
One morning, you were picking your breakfast at the local cafe near your apartment when you stumbled onto a cane and nearly fell. You were running on 2 hours of sleep and had a meeting with Maria to talk about the progress on your mission that you did not notice the person behind you as you were trying to walk out. You purposely apologized as he assured you it was ok with a small smile.
After that encounter, you kept running into him at the cafe. One time, the two of you even sat down together and talked for a while. He told you he was a lawyer, and you told him about your jobs at the bar and club. You knew that you shouldn't get involved with him. You were on a mission- but his sweet smile and his charming jokes worked like magic on you.
At night you worked and listened carefully to the conversations of the no-so dangerous criminals that frequented the club. You read the articles on the devil's nightly adventures but you haven't pin-point who he was. In the meantime, you have gotten closer and closer with Matt- spending some of your free nights in his apartment, where he looked even more ethereal with the soft lights of the city.
It looked like you weren't in a rush to finish your assignment. It felt nice to play house after years of moving from mission after mission where your life could end at any given time. But you liked it here, you liked how soft Matt`s lips felt on your skin, how good he made you feel- whether it was on his bed, eating breakfast in the cafe talking about anything and everything, or having a drink with his friends at Josie's.
Hell's Kitchen will always surprise you, and weirdly enough, it started to feel like home- something you haven't felt in a long time. When you realized that your night shifts working have become a dead end, you started to take the long walks home in order to bump into the Devil of Hell's kitchen.
Then, after a couple of weeks- it happened. You were walking home when you listened to grunts and fighting, you ran following the sound, and right outside a warehouse was him. You tried to keep quiet, focused on watching the men fight. It was subtle, but you saw the man dressed in black turn to where you were just as another man grabbed you from your hair. You hold on to the man behind you as the devil knocks out the one he was punching.
As you felt a knife pressing near your ribs, you started fighting. After the bad guys were on the ground, you turned into Daredevil, who was checking if you were ok. Meanwhile, you were in complete silence. He thought the rapid beat of your heart was caused by the fight but your only thought was focused on the only visible part of his face and how you could recognize him in any light. A second later he knew that too. That´ll be a fun conversation.
