Mistletoe

When Simone and the tiny, baby Simones leave, Clint’s apartment feels strangely empty. He’s pretty sure Kate’s still mad at him and he hasn’t figured out how to tell her he stayed. She probably already knows, but he pulls out his phone anyway and types half a text. He struggles between “thanks” or “you were right”, maybe both, and “I stayed because of you” is on the tip of his tongue but he can’t even bring himself to type it, somehow it feels like too much, even though it’s all he wants to say.
