Rhett wraps his arms around her tightly, hugging her as firmly as he can.

He seems pretty unwilling to let go.

Jan Di doesn't try to move away.

"You can talk to me anytime, okay?" she says. "Don't leave, okay?"

Josh had been so ready to, she had to make sure Rhett didn't think the same way.

"Don't...leave?"

He asks, sounding tense.

"Why would you say that?"

She doesn't really think much of it considering the situation.

"Josh said he was going to before everything was...fixed with him. I'm worried you'll do that."

"...I see."

His grip tightens a little.

"Well... that's how Josh is, I guess. He can be a bit... dramatic..."

She nods a bit.

"H'yeah..."

Even though he can't see, she smiles a bit at that. She also doesn't seem to realize he doesn't actually answer her.

"I guess I was scared I wouldn't see you anymore. I don't want that. But I get it if you would rather not see me for a little while..."

"Well... there's something I have to do. I've been given a new assignment, so I'll be gone for a little while."

Rhett says, rubbing her back softly.

"But as soon as it's done, I'm sure we'll see each other again."

"You're...sure we'll see each other again."

She sounds both incredulous and offended, now actually looking to pull back from him.

"Careful, Rhett. You might sound like you want it to happen."

Rhett frowns again as she pulls away, letting his hands drop.

"...that's not what I meant. It's just going to be dangerous. I was trying to be reassuring."

He shrugs helplessly.

"I'm sorry, Jan Di."

"It wasn't reassuring. Non-committal maybe..."

Her eyes shift down to stare at the seat instead.

"You've never done that before. Act like you might not come back." her brows furrow.

"And since when do you take missions again?"

"This one is important."

He speaks quietly, eyes following her gaze.

"I can't say no, it's... personal."

"What is it?"

Because she's pretty surprised he hasn't told her about it already.

"My parents are in Europe."

He feels as if that should explain everything.

Jan Di looks up at him.

"Fuck dude. I...now you're leaving with this."

Would it have been better to wait? God damn it.

He's still looking at the seat.

"It's better... I think. Honestly. Because this way, I know."

She nods solemnly, but can't get the fact she was so...grumpy out of her mind.

"I'm sorry. I get it, now."

It is dangerous, but maybe he'd want to stay with his parents after because of that. It made sense why he wouldn't want to be too specific.

"Augh. I'm such a dick."

"No."

He looks up, shaking his head.

"No, you've done nothing wrong. This is just one of those situations."

"You didn't know."

He reaches out to put his hand on her shoulder.

"It's alright, Jan Di."

"You have to stop comforting me." she smiles wryly.

In a way, it was working though. Understanding what was going on and Rhett not really pushing her away.

She places a hand on top of his.

"You're still my best friend, right?"

"...of course."

He grips her hand with his, smiling back at her a little.

"No matter what."

Those words tear at him more than anything else, and he wants to say "yes" so badly.

"I wish you could, too. But you should stay here."

Jan Di nods in acceptance. If he asked her to, she would get Jack to assign her right away.

But Rhett said it was personal. She wasn't just going to force her way in.

"I'm gonna miss you. Make sure to at least call or something."

"I'll miss you too, every single day."

He laughs softly.

"I'll get in touch with you the moment I can."
