I want you to apologize to Jem.

( and no, he is not budging on this. kieren is stubborn as a mule when he wants to be. )

Before we talk about...any of this. You really messed her up, Simon. We've both been trying to move on, and you set that back a lot. It's not me you should be apologizing to.

I mean, if you really mean it. If you're really...serious about all this.

[Yeah, he can tell from Kieren's voice that he won't move on this. And he'd sort of suspected it would be a condition. God that's going to be an awkward conversation, largely because while he understands he shouldn't have said anything, he doesn't think Jem is innocent. It's hard to think otherwise from where he currently is. Then again, if being here (and meeting Bucky, too), as well as his experiences with Kieren's parents, have taught him anything, it's that not necessarily everyone should be painted with the same brush. Maybe not even HVF fighters.]

Alright. I'll apologize. [If that's what Kieren wants. But with a phone call, so he can get a better impression of her than texting would ever provide.] I do mean it, I'm serious about this.

[He pauses, then adds:] I'll tell you when I've done it. [And at that he ends the call, leaning against the door to his and Kieren's apartment and breathing out a sigh. He opens the door, then sinks to the floor and stares at his phone for a while before he finally dials Kieren's sister.]
