I Think I'll Manage

Jenna and Jonas exchanged a look. She knew he was every bit as burdened by guilt as she was, if not more so. 

"I'm so sorry, Jen," he said miserably. "I ruined everything for you."

He was apologizing when he was the one that got shot?! He was going to be in physical therapy for this a lot longer than she had been. He had to get pins in his shoulder and everything. This never would have happened if Shaw wasn't trying to take his frustration on not being able to kill Jenna out on the person he knew she was closest to. 

Besides, Killian said so himself—her life as Tessa O'Brien ended the moment they first ran into each other and that had been an accident. It wasn't his fault. 

"Don't you dare apologize!" she insisted. "You're the one that got hurt and now you have to give up your life because of Shaw's stupid grudge against me. If anything, I should be apologizing."
