A/N: I know Valentine's Day was yesterday, but I suck at deadlines, and in my defense, I was out all day (yesterday and today) doing driving lessons, so bear with me! LOL So this was prompted by KatBauer in an exchange prompts thingy!
Oh, and I'm posting this as two-shots because I knew I wouldn't manage to finish everything for today, so the rest hopefully comes tomorrow! Hope you'll enjoy it! :) xx
"So much for doing something romantic on Valentine's Day, huh," muttered Skye with a deep sigh, resting her chin on her wrists.
Being an agent and mantaining a relationship was quite a hard task, Skye and Jemma were finally coming to learn.
Of course they have the fact that both live together in their favor - otherwise it would be pretty much impossible to spend quality time together in this line of work - but you can't have a good relationship with only being stuck in a plane 24/7. So when Valentine's Day arrived and the girls' plan of going out and have a decent romantic date away from their team were ruined, Skye got really reeeally cranky and frustrated about it.
Her girlfriend Jemma, who was sitting across from her by the holotable, lifted her eyes up from checking the team's operation at hearing the girl's voice. "It's not like we had anything that important planned," she stated bringing her eyes back down at the table and typing something on the screen.
"Hey!" Skye snapped all of sudden. "The picnic by the park was important! I was really looking forward to it... And don't act like you didn't put effort into making us sandwiches and preparing the basket." She said making her point, leaving Jemma shrugging to that. "Now we'll probably be leaving in a few hours, and our one chance of celebrating Valentine's Day here is totally ruined..." Shed added complaining some more with a pout.
The biochemist sighed at hearing Skye say that.
She was just as upset as the hacker was about their romantic date being ruined, but she was with SHIELD few years ahead of Skye; she knew how there's no such thing as taking a day off on a holiday while on duty. She knew that a mission could pop up at any giving moment, and their plans for Valentine's Day could be left for another opportunity.
She was okay with that idea, really, but the sight of Skye pouting was just too much for Jemma to bear. "Oh hush, darling, don't be silly now," She said while moving to stand behind the other girl, arms wrapping her around the waist, chin resting on her right shoulder as she kept herself up on the tip of her toes to reach Skye's face. "We can have our romantic picnic after this mission is over. What do you say?"
The hacker didn't want to admit this, but just that small contact made her feel a little bit better. Having Jemma's body pressed against hers further more as she leaned back into the touch could do wonders to her, but still, she thought that missing this chance of spending Valentine's Day with Jemma in Paris would need way more cheering up than just her girlfriend's hot body hugging her from behind. "Not in Paris, but okay." She sighed in defeat, leaning her head to the side to rest against Jemma's, her hands holding at the arms wrapped around her middle.
Jemma rolled her eyes at Skye for being such a baby about all of this. "I know you were looking forward to seeing the Eiffel tower, but we'll surely be back here real soon, you'll see." she said kissing the taller girl's cheek afterwards.
The feeling of soft lips touching her cheek made Skye's lips slightly tug upwards in the corners. Jemma can be such a cute little pain in the ass with her up-spirited self that it was nearly impossible to be moody around her when she was this way. The sweet chasted kiss on the cheek made Skye miss those lips on hers, so she moved in the smaller girl's arms, her hands resting on Jemma's hips as they now could face each other. "You can be so annoying with your optimism some times."
Jemma lightened up at seeing that smirk she loves so much tugging at Skye's lips. "Why bother brooding on Valentine's Day? Just stop with this nonsense and let's celebrate the fact that we are both here," She said bringing her hands up to twirl the hacker's luxurious wavy hair in her fingers, leaning forward to whisper the next couple of words between soft kisses. "Together. Safe. And sound."
Skye could feel her body relaxing more and more at every little brush of lips they exchanged there. From the light pecks, to a slow paced sensual kiss that nearly made her forget why she was so upset to begin with, Jemma was really good at making her feel better. She didn't need much, just one look and a smile from the biochemist and Skye would melt instantly. She was whipped like that.
Sighing contently after both pulled back from kissing, Skye finally relaxed, leaned for a peck on her girlfriend's nose, making her scrunch it in that adorable way that never failed at making the hacker chuckle. "Okay, you win, but only because you're too cute for words." Jemma scoff in response only made Skye chuckle more. "Can we at least go have those sandwiches by the cargo hold now? I'm really starving."
"But what about the mission?" The biochemist asked gazing down at the holotable, making sure nothing wrong had happened during their brief moment of distraction.
"We can get our comms and tablets, run the OP from there and come up here if the guys need any help." Skye shared with the other girl her plan, making sure that they could multitask without a problem. "I just reeeally need to gaze at Paris for a little longer before we gooo!"
She begged her girlfriend with puppy eyes that were just too adorable to resist, but Jemma was willing to leave Skye hanging just a little longer because how many times can she brag about having Skye at her mercy like that? She was usually all 'Bad Girls Shenanigans', breaking rules, doing things as she pleases, making Jemma follow her into trouble. Asking for permission to break protocol was definitely a small development, the biochemist would say.
The smaller girl pondered for a little longer and Skye thought she was just about to say 'No', but suddenly Jemma was smiling widely at her, and pulling the hacker by the hand. "Let's go have our picnic then! Shall we?!"
