Some S.H.I.E.L.D. bunk-rooms were their own method of torture, Alex guessed.

It was small and stuffy and windowless, with barely room for a single compact iron bunk bed. 

It was even a miserable place to be miserable. 

Alex had watched her toss and turn until her nightmares had finally gotten the better of her fitful sleep. 

You don't have to let anxiety and depression get the better of you. 

Alex rubbed her shoulder now.

She laughed in spite of everything.

Do you think this is the O.P.U.S.? Maybe you’re somehow picking up on Natasha Romanoff too? 

You mean I’m catching whatever it is the two of you have? Quantum Russian? No. 

Except the combat part. That I get. She has some great counterattacks. 

He said slowly, without realizing quite what he was saying. Then he turned red, because he did. 

They were face-to-face now—his lips almost grazed her cheek when he spoke. 

I guess not. 

Alex pulled on a strand of cinnamon curl, studying her profile. 

She was so beautiful it was almost shocking to see in this depressing gray cell of a room.

You keep to yourself. 

Her eyes looked fleetingly sad.

You don’t think I’m crazy? After I lost it back there? 

His heart was pounding, but he didn’t know if it was from nerves or adrenaline.

That doesn’t count; I did the dragging on that one. 

Getting stuck in this hole with me?

“Not like anyone on planet Earth,” he said, hovering over her. 

I’m going to choose to take that as a compliment.
