Jessica glanced up at the tv above the bar and sighed. There he was again.
She had been doing fine after everything ended. Well, not fine. Coping. Much better than the first time, thanks.
But now she was seeing him everywhere. His name was in all the news and on everyone's lips. He was even in the subtext, in the new hole-filled hoodies that seemed to be on every sidewalk.
Luke Cage.
Jessica downed the shot sitting in front of her and sighed deeply.
Huh.
Well, it looked like he was going to be the hero she never could be.
