JESS AND YELENA'S PARTING WAS SIMPLE TO THE BLIND EYE, jess gave her to an officer who worked for s.h.i.e.l.d and said goodbye. but to them, you could feel the pain in their farewell. god, how did they get so close?
"scott?" jess asked, lost in thought.
"yeah?" scott replied, his mouth full of taco.
"is it weird that i hope yelena keeps trying to kill barton? so that we can catch her again? so i can see her?" jess queried.
scott squinted like he was considering something. "yeah, probably. why do you even care about her so much? you act like you're dating her."
"i don't know!" jess groaned irritably, "it really doesn't make sense but i just miss her. she's funny and actually kind of nice and.. i just feel like we're connected, y'know?"
scott looked taken aback by the statement. "oh.. so it is like you're dating her?"
"i'm not kidding around, scott. it's frustrating."
"okay, okay," scott put his hands up in surrender, "i don't really know how to help you. i'm sure there are ways to find your best friend aside from breaking the law. you'll manage, kiddo, i know you will."
"you're a better dad than my real one, you know that right?" jess smiled gratefully.
"you only remind me every day, thanks though," scott returned the smile, "speaking of, cassie and i made plans to go shopping. i'd best be going."
"oh, fun!" jess's smile widened to an almost grin. she was happy for scott, envious even. "have a good time. and let cassie know i say hi."
after scott left the room, jess's mind was plagued with thoughts of yelena, their playful bantering; unspoken looks; and hands "accidentally" brushing when they were near each other. it was all so innocent and friendly at the time, but now that they've separated, it didn't seem so platonic anymore. the truth is, jess didn't want yelena to hurt anyone, but if that's what the latter would have to do to get them to see each other again, jess was willing to take that risk.
