She doesn’t know when it started, this little ritual of theirs, but Emma’s glad it did. They curl up together in Jesse’s room on the loveseat that’s really too small for the both of them. Still, it’s perfect for these days when a mission goes wrong and they each need something to soothe away the regrets.
They’ll put in some old movie they’ve both seen hundreds of times and then just pretend to watch. In reality, they’re watching each other, counting the moments until their heartbeats slow down from the frantic day. Until their hearts begin to heal again.
