Title 1: "Jason?" Title 2: "Hi Paul"

How can I miss what was never mine in the first place? You were like a glowing ember to me--so beautiful and intriguing, but so inaccessible--hot to the touch with 100% chance of getting burned.

Jason's favorite color is maroon.
Maroon: Harsh experience has probably matured the Maroon person into someone likable and generous. It is often a favorite color of someone who has been battered by life but has come through. It indicates a well-disciplined Red personality—one who has had difficult experiences and has not come through unmarked but who has grown and matured in the process.

Paul's favorite color is black. He also likes maroon.
Black: Dignified and impressive without being showy, Black people want to give the appearance of mystery, but their preference may also indicate a suppression of desires and worldly aims, suggesting hidden depths and inner longings.

Amazing and simple; seemingly tenderly delicate. Anomalous and attractive, who are you? And what are we doing here; what is this?

Looking at their personalities, the favorite colors definitely fit.

My favorite color is red.
Red: The color of strength, health, and vitality, Red is often the color chosen by someone outgoing, aggressive, vigorous and impulsive—or someone who would like to be! It goes with an ambitious nature but those who choose it can be abrupt at times, determined to get all they can out of life, quick to judge people and take sides. Red people are usually optimistic and can’t stand monotony; they are rather restless and not at all introspective, so they may be unaware of their own shortcomings. They find it hard to be objective and may blame others for any mishaps. Quiet people with a preference for red may feel the need for the warmth, strength and life-giving qualities of the color, or they blanket their true feelings under a sober exterior. Red is usually chosen by people with open and uncomplicated natures, with a zest for life.

The only thing I disagree with is the part about Reds not being introspective--I am VERY introspective.
