  Summary

  After John is critically injured, Ava is left questioning everything she thought she felt about him.
  (Fic Title- song name by Paramore, channelling the song into this lmao)
  For context, in this the Hoskins (TFATWS) adopted John when he was a tween.
  References to events from TFATWS and Antman & The Wasp
  Set around 8 months after the events of Thunderbolts (2025) but that isn’t that important as I broke canon here
