100} Just Kiss Me

"Hey," Jenna approached Nancy.
"What's up, Jenna?" Nancy replied, not looking up from her gun as she sat, messing with it.
"I figured I should update you on Holly," Nancy immediately lifted her head up.
"What happened? Is she okay?"
"I don't know exactly what went down, but she tapped into my powers. I felt her in the back of my mind and told her to use them and she did. I don't know how it ended, but she said she was sorry for failing me," Nancy's face dropped, "Hey, it's okay. Holly is a strong girl. Even if something happened, she'll recover and save those kids."
Nancy set the gun to the side and hugged Jenna, "Thank you for looking after her. I'm sorry for snapping at you back at the lab."
"Nance-"
"I was just so scared of losing her again, but you did the right thing. And thank you for saving Jon."

"What, uh, happened between you two back there, if I may pry."
"Things have just been off between us for a while. We've tried to hide it from everyone, so don't feel bad if you didn't notice. We're just not a good fit anymore."
"Do you think it's done for good?"
"I wouldn't say that, but we really need a break for right now."
"If that's what you both agreed on, then I fully support you."
"What about you and Steve? Engaged?"
Jenna laughed, "I know it was horrible timing, but I'm glad it happened."
"I honestly can't believe it took you guys this long. From what Alice and Robin told me, back in the Russian base before you even started dating, you two planned your wedding."
"Hey, we were drugged."
"Clearly it just made you spill the truth. So, you two finally going to have your six little nuggets then?" Nancy tried to keep a straight face.

Jenna's smile slowly crumbled, "About that..."
"What?" Nancy stopped laughing.
"I haven't told Steve yet, but I don't actually know if I can have kids or not. I mean, with all of the experiments from when I was little, they changed my body. I don't know how everything's been affected," She started to tear up, "I really want kids... I just don't know if that's possible."
Nancy wrapped her up in a hug again, "Do you know for sure?"
"No. It's not like I can talk to a doctor about it given the government secret stuff, so-"
"Then it's not a total impossibility," Nancy pulled back, holding onto Jenna's shoulders, "You two can figure it out and see when the time is right."
"Man, I can't believe we are wasting time talking about having kids and getting married when the world needs saving. Only us."
"We both needed to talk about our relationships. Think of it like us clearing our heads before going into battle."
"You're a genius, Nancy Wheeler."
"I know."

"Jenna!" Alice yelled up from the basement, "Save me!"
"That's my cue," Jenna giggled, "Thanks for the talk."
"Anytime," Nancy winked.
"What do you need me for, A-Lee-See?" Jenna sauntered down the stairs, wrapping her arms around Alice's waist.
"Robin and Mike are fighting over music," She placed her hands over Jenna's, "It's hurting my ears and my sanity."
"Wheeler?" Jenna paid attention to the song, "Butthole Surfers? Really?"
"Yes!" He scoffed, "This is good music!"
"It's trash, that's what it is," Jenna rolled her eyes.
"Thank you!" Robin proudly smiled.
"I built the bomb, so I should get to pick the music," Mike pouted.
"Yeah," Jenna walked over to the record wall, "Well, I'm the one who's risked her life more times than I can count for you. Plus, I'm the queen of music here," She took his record off and replaced it with a Hall & Oates one, "I should pick."

Maneater started to play through the speakers.
"Oh oh, here she comes," Jenna started to dance, "Watch out boy, she'll chew you up," Alice grabbed her hand and spun her around, "Oh oh, here she comes. She's a Maneater!"
"This is trash!" Mike griped.
"Fine!" Jenna flicked her wrist, turning off the record player and turning on the cassette player, "We're playing my favorite song then!" Super Freak immediately took over, "She's a very kinky girl. The kind you don't take home to mother," Robin joined her and Alice with their ridiculously bad dancing, "And she'll never let your spirits down. Once you get her off the streets, oh no."
"I can't believe you call yourself the queen of music," Mike shook his head.
"Watch your mouth before I blow you up with your bomb instead of the Upside Down," His eyes went wide, "Exactly."
