“B. But I’ve only met him twice! O-once, I must remind you, was when he had his paws all over you…!” he spluttered, face still well and truly set to ‘purple’ at this little bit of news.
Really, Metro Man liked him? Like that? But why? How?
“Love,” she began softly, kind of amused by how cute he was being, “I told you that was because he was under the magic of an anon. Metro Man likes men. And blue ones too.”
Reaching up to stroke his brow gently, she continued, “But don’t worry. I battled and won for you. I protected you from him. Though oddly enough I still want to set you two up on a friendship date.”
“Oh…” Jack said.
Meeting up with him, now, felt even more awkward. He didn’t rightly believe in these magical anons, not over things like feelings. What if it had all just been a lie, to get close to Katelynn? What if he really did just want to steal her away all the while pretending to be into men?
There were so many possible liars around. He knew that more than anyone.
“Well. I. I still would like to get to know him too… I mean he is the hero of this city and… and all…” he trailed off and looked at his leg.
