New story! This one actually came to me in a dream (you know you're going down when you dream about your otp running away together) and I thought I would write it out because it is just so cute and I posted a little introduction to this story on my tumblr, so if you want to read it just go to my profile, click the link that says My Tumblr and once on my blog click the tab that says "My Fanfiction" and there it is! I've already written the first 3 chapters and I am going through them and editing right now so I should have a new chapter up tonight sometime! I hope you like it!


Skye and Ward had stopped at a hotel somewhere in LA. Ward was purposely trying to waste time with Skye, not wanting to bring her to Garrett at all. He knew that once Garrett got the hard drive, he would do horrible things to Skye and he couldn't let that happen. It's not like they could go back to Shield right now either, they were wanted by just about everybody in the country, so going back to Shield would be suicide at the moment. For the first time in his whole career of being an agent, he had no idea what to do.

Ward paced around the white and grey hotel suite living room, running his hands through his hair and his face thinking, trying to figure something out. He was scared and worried for his safety and for hers. He sighed before falling down onto the couch behind of him.

"Hey…you okay?" Skye asked stepping into the doorway of the living room.

"Honestly? No. Not at all." Ward sighed again before hearing Skye walk towards him.

"I have an idea," Skye whispered before sitting down next to Ward "But first, I know you're Hydra."

"What?" Ward asked voice cracking.

"Don't play dumb. You're Hydra." Skye said a little more forcefully than she did the first time.

"How? How did you find out?" Ward looked up at Skye, trying to figure out where she was going with this, and trying to figure out how she knew.

"I'm not stupid. You killed Agent Koenig, you started looking for me when I left the room, scared that I had found him, and you looked in the closet first to make sure the penny still fell from the door. That and you just barely passed your lie detector test…" Skye explained as Ward shook his head.

"You called Coulson about me didn't you?"

"No…not yet anyways. You want to know why?" Skye scooted a little closer to Ward on the couch.

"Yes?" Ward replied, getting a little more worried.

"I think that you don't want to be with Hydra. I think you're basically being forced to, and you hate it." Skye started while Ward remained silent "I put together the pieces and I'm guessing Garrett is still alive?" Ward nodded before Skye continued "I'm also guessing that you look up to him? He did something to help you a long time ago, and you think you owe him, that's why you follow his orders, doing terrible things."

"Yeah…uh, when I was a teenager he pulled me out of hell basically. Gave me a job, treated me nicely…" Ward started but didn't get to finish as Skye cut him off

"By abusing you like your parents and brother did?" Skye asked "Now I get that this is your story so do you want to tell it?"

"How did you…how did you know about the abuse?" Ward asked shocked.

"You said he did that to you…" Skye pointed at his broken ribs and scratched up face. "If there was at least one thing that wasn't a lie, it was that. Now, finish the story?"

"Yeah, so um, he pulled me out of my home, gave me a job with Hydra, and told me we were creating a better world. I believed him for the longest time, until he gave me an assignment to go onto Coulsons team." Skye sat up a little straighter as he started talking about their team. "When you're a specialist you work alone, I went in and got the job done with no strings attached. When you're on a team, that's different. You start to get attached to your team mates, you start to like them and become friends with them." Ward sighed "Fitzsimmons reminds me of my little brother and sister, so it was really hard not to get attached to them, then even no matter how tough May is, it was nice to have someone to talk to…"

"Right. 'talk' to." Skye interrupted smirking a little bit at Ward who laughed a little before continuing.

"Coulson on the other hand made me realize how terrible Garrett was. Coulson reprimanded me without hitting me, he talked to me and tried to figure out what was going on, he was just a thousand times better than Garrett…then there was you. I wasn't prepared for you to come onto the team, the only people I thought would be on the team was Fitzsimmons, May and Coulson. I became your SO to get to know you, but you really kind of took me by surprise." Ward smiled at Skye who giggled a little at the statement "You're the one who showed me life isn't all about just taking orders and getting the job done. You made me laugh for the first time in years, you pointed out all the great things life has to offer. You came from a hell hole like I did, but you seemed to just face the world and laugh in its face. Show it that it was wrong. You made me fall for you every single day, and I really didn't plan on that, but you did, and I am so, so sorry for lying to you and lying to the team I just…"

"I understand. You were confused, lonely, and then a team that cared so much about you came into the picture, and suddenly…suddenly you have a family. I get that you couldn't tell us, you thought you owed Garrett everything for him taking you out of your hell. But if you think about it didn't he just put you in another?" Skye questioned

"Yeah…he basically just threw me into another hell." Ward whispered to himself as looked down and shook his head, trying his best not to show how upset he was, coming to the realization of everything going on around him.

"Hey… Hey Grant don't get upset it's okay! All I need you to do is tell me you're on my side and then I'll tell you my idea, okay?" Skye asked as she turned on the couch so that she was completely facing him.

"I…I am. I'm on your side, I'll stay with shield, I'll stay with you…and the team." Ward stuttered out

"You sure? You aren't lying?" Skye asked just to make sure

"I'm sure." Ward replied before leaning in and kissing Skye, just like they had kissed less than a day before in the bunker, just as passionate, but this time he knew it would last. "Now…what's your idea?" Ward smiled at Skye as they came up from the kiss.

"Well it might sound really crazy but…Let's run away." Skye smiled brightly at Ward, trying to read his reaction.

"Run away?" Ward asked, just trying to process what she had told him.

"Let's face it. We have every government agency there is on our asses and sooner or later they're going to find us. So, let's run away! I can create fake identities for each of us, fake IDs, fake degrees so we could get a job, fake everything. We could live a normal life. Or as normal as it could be worrying about people arresting us every second…"

"Skye you do realize that if we did that it would be impossible to talk to the team? The second we try to contact them Shield will know where we are."

"I know…" She sighed "I thought about that, but at least we'll be together…" She looked up at Ward to see him smile a little.

"I know that we'll be together, but are you sure you want to live with never seeing May, Coulson or Fitzsimmons again?" Ward asked, just making sure before they make a big mistake.

"I don't like the idea of it, but all that matters right now is staying alive, that will be pretty hard to do if we go back. Hell they would probably shoot us down the second they saw us…So what do you say? " Skye looked up at Ward to see him smile at her.

"Okay… Let's run away."
