Prompt Writing

What makes your life complicated?
The fact that I have no control over my emotions. I'm a good agent but I keep letting myself get distracted by my feelings for other people.
First it was Bryce. I always swore when I joined the CIA that I wouldn't be one of those women who hooked up with a co-worker. Oh, I could rationalize the hell out of it. Bryce was different. It wasn't like that between us. But what it all boils down to? I fell for my co-worker, like I always said I wouldn't.
Now it's Chuck. I'm supposed to protect him. And I can't let my feelings get in the way of that. Not that I think they will. But I almost compromised myself once. And now that we're stuck in this odd little village with no Casey, no bosses, and probably no danger, I feel like it would be way too easy for me to slip up again.
But then I remember that someday we'll go back to our real lives and most likely remember everything that happened here and I can't take the risk of letting myself fall further and jeopardizing Chuck's safety and my career.
