FLASHBACK

Caroline sat in the room anxiously waiting for time to run out but it seemed to go slower in the therapist office. Taking Phil's advice Caroline thought it wouldn't be a horrible idea to let out what she had locked up for years. This therapist was an employee of Shield who attended and treated agents who had special powers or inhumans. Not being able to talk to Peggy as much was certainly lonely because she was the only one who knew the whole story.

The therapist looked at Caroline who tried her hardest to avoid any eye contact.

"Miss. Kingsley, this only works when you start to open up."

After a long silence with neither uttering a word, the therapist took the first step asking a simple question, "Who is it?"

"Who's what?" Confused a what she meant finally made contact with the therapist.

"Who are you here for?"

"What makes it seem that I'm here for someone?" Caroline asked lounging back on the couch.

"From observation, you've touched the necklace around your neck about 10 times. I can assume that they're dog tags by the way they rattle. So my question is, who is it?"

Caroline was impressed by the therapist observation at her movements. She knew that getting professional help would be better than talking to a friend because a professional could diagnosis exactly what the person is holding onto or what they are trying to leave behind.

"His name is Steve and the other one is Bucky."

"Friends?"

"Well Bucky is my friend but Steve was something else. He was my everything."

The therapist made sure that Caroline felt safe for her to go on, and simply gave a warm nod. Caroline gulped waiting to see what she would say about Steve. How he was a gentlemen and would always put her feelings first. Or that he was the one that comforted her every time a date had gone wrong.

"He was Romeo and I was Juliet, without Juliet dying."
