Kate and Yelena were sitting close together on a bench, sharing a bag of popcorn.
Yelena casually fed Kate a piece, and Kate grinned, brushing Yelena's hand with her lips as she took the popcorn.
Yelena smirked. "You missed a crumb," she said, leaning in to gently brush it off Kate's cheek with her thumb.
Kate playfully swatted Yelena's hand away. "You're just looking for an excuse to touch my face, aren't you?"
Yelena shrugged, a sly smile on her lips. "Maybe."
Cassie, passed by couldn't help but cringe at the sight. "Ugh, you two are like... a walking rom-com. Get a room or something."
Kate glanced over at Cassie, hearing her grumbling. "What's wrong, Cassie? Not a fan of true love?" she teased.
Cassie shook her head dramatically.
"I don't know but Yelena, you're supposed to be a badass assassin, not some... sweet version of you."Yelena raised an eyebrow, amused. "Are you saying I can't be both?"
Cassie crossed her arms, shaking her head. "No, it's just... I'm starting to miss the scary, knife-throwing Yelena."
Kate grinned, wrapping an arm around Yelena."I think this version's pretty awesome."
Yelena, grinning at Cassie's discomfort, leaned even closer to Kate, making a point to whisper something in her ear.
Kate laughed, and they both looked at Cassie. "We can give you a hug. Come!"
Yelena, not missing a beat, tossed a piece of popcorn at Cassie. "Yeah, it's warm."
Cassie caught the popcorn and popped it into her mouth, shaking her head. "No thanks, can't be with Yelena being a romantic, deadly assassin. What's next, you start knitting?"
Kate laughed, giving Yelena an exaggeratedly adoring look. "I'd love a hand-knitted sweater."
"Oh, I'll make you one my sweet Katherine Elizabeth." Yelena replied with a baby talk teasing Cassie more.
Cassie pretended to gag. "Okay, I'm out."
Yelena and Kate exchanged a glance, bursting out laughing.
