Sleeping on Jane's couch

and i think the closest the show ever got to that was in ddba1 when matt wakes up in the hospital and the first thing he asks for is karen. like he's barely conscious. he doesn't even have time to process what's happening and she's the person his mind reaches even tho he was with heather atp

I've been working on this for so long and I still don't really like it spdpdpdpps (I still decided to share it though)

Title: One More Night

Rating: E (Oodles of smut in this one)

Relationship: Matt Murdock/Karen Page

Summary:

“I can’t just…” His whole body sways as if it physically pains him to finish that sentence.

The heat presses against her skin, “You’ve had one night stands before, right?”

Matt’s knuckles turn white, “Not like this. Not with you.”

“Or we can just go back to pretending?” She offers, pressing her thighs together to emphasise her point, “Just let it build and build and build until it explodes and we end up right back here without the rules or boundaries to keep us safe.”

“Safe?”

“From each other.”

He flinches.

During a record-breaking heatwave, Matt and Karen have no choice but to confront the sexual attraction they still feel towards each other when things come to a head at the office. They come up with an agreement, one night to get it out of their systems and then back to normal. Except just one night isn't what either of them wants and admitting that might just break their newly built friendship.

Bones' clearly lying about her desire to marry!!!
