Doubt Yourself

   "When you think of your wife...how does that make you feel?"

Hope is quiet for a moment studying Con's face, but before he can reply she continues.

   "And the though of someone hurting her, or hurting your friends? You feel angry not because you are a monster but the other way around. You get angry because you are scared of losing the people closest to you. It's human nature to get mad, and makes mistakes sometimes this line of work it happens more than others."

Standing Hope comes around her desk and sits down next to Con giving a soft smile. The big man was no monster and no one thought of him that way. He was one of the softest people she new.

   "If you went on a rampage and killed people with no reason. When out right now, and shot anyone who had been Agency, anyone who made you mad in your life just because you could that would make you a monster. But you have people in your life, Misty, Gage, Carson who have become your friends. Killing them...that dosnt cross you mind because you care for them."

Giving Con's arm a pat Hope nodded slightly to her door. Con was a good man. She new it, everyone new it. The only one who didn't was him.

   "When you leave here, take a moment to go say Hi to Katie, how will she greet you? A big hug? enthusiasm, joy? Go see your wife while she works. A hug, a kiss, happiness, a twinkle in her eye? That is where the truth lies...with the people you hold oh so close to you Con. Look to them when you doubt yourself...they would never lie."

Without warning Angel wacks Lane over the back of the head before looking her brother square in the eyes. She wasn't going to let him get away with anything right now.

   "Mississippi you know good and well you are not in anyones hair and this place is never normal."

Her facial expression softened and she just placed a hand on her brothers arm. She might have been hurt, but she didn't hate her brother. He was so important to her.

   "I love you Lane, and I love my nephew. No matter what happened...you mean everything to me and I dont want you to leave right away. You have not failed me...only strayed."

Katie cant help but smile and shake her head. Full of jokes as always. As Jason asks for her imput she couldn't help the little bit of shock that ran through her. She was just Jason would notice it but she was doing her best to recover. She didn't hate he did it just had been a long while.

   "Oh J....I dont think you are endangering anyone at all. We can't put our lives on hold just for Agency nonsense. That's what they want."

Reaching out and patting Jason's hand Katie smiled. He was so thoughtful and she could tell he was worried, but she was confidante things would be ok. Searching his eyes for a moment Katie just wanted him to not be in fear. He needed to have a little fun too.

  "Don't forget I'll be there too. Hawk eyes...I got this!"

   "It's no different that having any other boyfriend."

Searching Kirk's face Sapphire wondered what his motive was here, and what the point of these questions were. She didn't like how he asked them. Acting like she wouldn't be faithful to the Elite, and saying Gage would go back since the Agency. He didn't know him one bit. how dare he.

   "My alliance is to the Elite, and it always will be, so is Gage. He would never go back to the Agency so its not a concern. You shouldn't judge people before you know them for a past that is long gone."
