Crush

Elena is sick to death of Reno and Rude constantly joking about her supposed crush on Tseng. Their relentless teasing frustrates and angers her, because she is a professional, like her sister and father before her.

Because, in any case, she would never allow personal feelings to get in the way of a mission.

Because it undermines her standing within the group, and she fears that it makes them see her as weak.

Because if he should overhear, she dreads what he would think.

Because she has lost count of the times she's told them they're wrong.

Because they're right.
