✵Cassandra

"So are we really close now?" I ask and Yon teases, "Maybe." "Why do you keep teasing me? It's frustrating," I cross my arms. "You look cute when you are mad," Yon compliments as he eats again. He thinks I am cute.

I watch Yon finish his food. "Is it delicious?" I amusingly ask. "It's better than Kree Food," he admits and it make me laugh. "Can I have another?" he asks and I slide him my meal. "Here."

"Aren't you hungry?" he asks and I shake my head. "I had a midnight snack last night. I can't sleep," I share with him. "Do you want to talk about it?" he offers but I decline it by shaking my head.

"We are not yet close," I quote him and he leans in. "I am serious Cassandra. Do you want to talk about it?" he whispers to me.

I look into his yellow eyes and see that they are dead serious. He wants to help me out. But it's too personal, I don't fully trust him.

"I don't trust you yet Yon to be honest," I admit to him. "Is it too personal?" he asks and I nod. He sighs and sits back to his chair. "I am sorry Yon," I apologise and he smiles weakly, "Don't be."

✵

"Wrap your finger around the trigger," I instruct Yon. We are now at the shooting room, doing target practice. "Now aim for the head."

I am so close to him that I can feel him breathe in. I think I also feel my heart skip a beat when I see his muscles flex. What is wrong with you Diana?

"Now pull the trigger," I instruct which he did. I look at the target. He aimed for the head. Yon suddenly hugs me. "I hit it!" he exclaims and I hug him back. He smells good by the way.

He suddenly lets me go. He clear his throat and says, "Thank you Cass for teaching me." I bashfully smile. "You are very welcome Yon."

"Cassandra!" Harry hugs me tightly from the back. I pat his head. "Hello Harry." "Mind if I join you?" he asks permission and I allow him, "Sure, join in."

Harry looks at Yon who is sharply looking at him. I think they are having staring contest. "Are you guys alright?" I ask them and Harry answers, "We are fine. Right Yon-Rogg?" "Absolutely," Yon says, still staring at him."Alright then. Let's train," I smile.

Harry grabs a pistol and loads it. I grab my headphones, glasses and put it on. Yon pulls the slide and aims. We begin shooting practice.

After a few rounds, Harry tosses his hands up. "I win!" he exclaims. I narrow my eyes and ask, "Win what?" "Oh nothing, it's just did all head shots," he brags. I roll my eyes.

I look at Yon and smile at him. "Not bad for a first time," I compliment him. "I only had five head shots," he sadly says to me. I suddenly hug him. "It's okay. Maybe next time," I encourage Yon.

"Let's eat lunch!" I face Harry and he nods in agreement. I grab Yon's hand and pull him outside. "Hurry! I am starving!" I exclaim and Yon just smirks.

On the way to the cafeteria, Harry decided to ask Yon something personal. "So Yon-Rogg, where do you live?" he questions. "I live in New York," Yon answers as he knows that already. I smile proudly at him.

"Why did you join S.H.I.E.L.D.?" Harry asks and I froze. Why does he need to know? "Harry, I am starving," I try to make up an excuse. "I actual want to help the helpless people," Yon answers and I look at him. He winks at me.

"Do you have a sibling?" Harry says. "I actual have a brother," Yon simply answers. Maybe it's true. "Is your father and mother alive? Do they know you are flirting with Cassa-" I interrupt Harry with a slap in his arm. "That is very rude Harry."

I grab Yon's arm and stomp to the cafeteria grounds. "I am so sorry Yon. I don't know what's gotten into Harry," I apologize in behalf of Harry. "It's okay. He is such a jerk," he smiles casually. I laugh at the word jerk.

"We need to discuss about yourself or we will get caught easily," I tell him. "Sounds like a plan to me," Yon states.

✵

"You live in New York and you have a brother," I tell him as he already state that to someone. After a lunch, we head to my bed room to discuss about Yon's personal data.

"Your parents live in New Jersey," I say to him and he frowns, "Are all the states here start with new?" I laugh loundly. "That's so funny," I say through my laughter.

Yon smiles as he watches me laugh. "Is there something in my face?" I ask as I begin to brush my face. "There is nothing in your face," he says and I furry my brows. "You look adorable." And I became Cassandra The Tomato again.

He suddenly also burst into laughter. I smile at the sight. He looks happy. He looks like himself. I just hope he can understand the truth so everything will be alright.

I join in the laughter. We both collapse on the bed from laughing. "You look so adorable," Yon tells me and I try to contain my blush from that comment. "Thank you Yon. I hope to see you always happy."

"Cassandra?" Yon breathes out. "Yes?" I ask and replies, "Can I borrow your communication device?" I sit up and state, "No, you can't."

"But why?" he questions. "Carol told me not to. You might contact Ronan and destroy this planet," I tell him off. "I just miss my father," he mumbles out.

I suddenly feel guilty. I want to follow Carol and save the planet earth. But I also want to help Yon communicate with his parent. "I am sorry Yon," I apologise and he smiles sadly, "It's okay Cass."

"It's okay..."
