".....has died." finish it in my ask.
Once, she’d woken up in his bed. Curled up against his chest, skin crawling with ants. He’d already been cold, stiff. Died while she slept next to him. Even later, when she’d found out it had been a... hoax she guessed--an elaborate attempt by Kilgrave to torture her--Jessica couldn’t imagine anything worse. Couldn’t imagine this moment right here.
Steve Rogers--Captain fucking America himself--was still talking to her. Trying to tell her how brave Scott had been, what he’d done for his team. The words just sounded like static. White noise. Nothing made any sense.
He’d been polite, closed the door before he’d told her. So her neighbors wouldn’t have to see her cry, maybe. The goddamn door that had hung straight and hadn’t had a broken lock since Scott had moved in with her. It looked so fucking wrong. Like it belonged to someone else.
The white noise cut off abruptly when she opened the door and slammed it shut again. Hard enough that the glass shattered upon impact. Alias Investigations scattered across the hallway floor. It looked like a fucking ransom note. Jessica slammed the door again. And again and again until one of the hinges broke free. Until it almost looked like hers again and Steve had grabbed her by the arms.
“Go fuck yourself,” she whispered harshly, shaking him off. “And get the fuck out of my office.” She didn’t want to see him or any of the other Avengers ever again. She didn’t care that they’d saved the world or what the fuck ever. All she cared about was that Scott wasn’t coming back and nothing was ever going to be okay again.
