This is my second Skoulson fan fiction. It was meant to be a one shot. But I thought it would be better to have two chapters for the story. Hope you would enjoy this. Your comments are welcome.I Will finish the story ASAP.

Disclaimer: The characters but Danny does not belong to me.

Skye was still half asleep when she walked into the kitchen. She was feeling hungry. Her hair looked like a bird nest caught in the middle of one major tornado. She was in her purple pajamas. She yawned. Her eyes were half shut. That must have been the reason why she did not see Coulson in the kitchen.

Coulson had a hot cup of Chocolate in his hand and saw Skye, still three third asleep, making her way through to the kitchen while bumping on every possible object in her way. A smile spread on his lips. She looked adorable. The mischief as she was when he found her, she seemed far patched up and everything now. Someone who does not know Skye, might mistake her for an angel if they see her at this moment.

It took her some time to adjust her eyes to the vision that was blocking her.

"Oh! Hey Coulson. Is that hot chocolate? I am starving…." Skye said, fumbling into few more chairs before she reached Coulson and took the cup from his hands and drink from it deeply. "Mmmhhh…"

Don't do that to me Skye, Coulson thought. Three undone front buttons exposed her neck a little below. The steam of the hot chocolate was turning her face all flushed. She held the cup in both her hands and settled on the dining table. She was wearing her purple pajama. Purple always complimented her. It gave her a look of an ill-disciplined bunny.

Skye was wide awake as soon as she saw Coulson. She just had a dream of this guy which made her wake up in the middle of the night. She was thinking of him all the way she was stumbling towards the kitchen. And there he was, calmly sipping a hot chocolate, her favorite. She let her instinct lead. The instinct suggests touching him, to hug him, kiss him and shut up! Why was he looking at me like that?

"Oopz!" Skye splattered chocolate on her pajama. Not because she wanted to seduce Coulson or anything, but because all this time there was another man, coolly leaning against the freezer and eyeing her with interest.

Coulson was back to his senses. He had almost forgotten that Danny was there and that he was watching him and Skye with his hawk eyes.

"Oh yes! Sorry, Skye….This is Danny and Danny, this is Skye." Coulson quickly introduced the two of them before things get awkward.

"Hello…Danny…whoever you are." Skye said, sluggishly waving her hand at him.

"Hello…. Skye….who has not been mentioned by my friend here." Danny replied eyeing Coulson with new found interest.

No you don't Danny, thought Coulson.

"Oh…." Skye said crest fallen. Maybe I am not worth mentioning…

"Well, I am rather new to the Bus and everything." She said. "Are you Coulson's…?"

"Best friend, since Grade five." Danny said. He had friendly shining eyes. He sure needs to be a special person to become Coulson's best friend, thought Skye. It was hard to imagine that Coulson had such a best friend. Here I thought I was his….partner? Friend? Colleague? Love interest….What? Care to elaborate on that? Humor came into rescue as always. It is the friendliest defense mechanism ever. She was the Mistress of Denial.

"Oh, Cool!" Skye said, eyeing Coulson with a mischievous smile in her eyes. "Then you should all the girls that our Director broke hearts of. What do you say, Mister Danny, care to betray some Intel on the Secret Life of Phil J. Coulson, over another cup of hot chocolate?"

Danny was fascinated by this girl, the moment she walked in and kidnapped Phil's Cup of Chocolate. She was adorable and a natural. It is quite suspicious as to why Coulson never cared to mentioned her to him. He knew everyone in the Bus, most of the personal stories….. And here there is an amazing creature that Coulson just happened not to mention. Coulson, mate you are keeping a secret from me!

"I will be more than glad to, Miss Skye."

"You can just call me Skye or I officially go as Daisy…Daisy Johnson."

Aha! So this is the Daisy Johnson. The Quake girl! There was news about her all over the internet and newspapers. She has been the one who saved the day for the world, back at the Battle of Aurora. He could now remember the face. She is the new Avenger.

"Great! So you are THE Daisy Johnson. Nice to meet you, Daisy. And yes, about Phil Coulson, did you know that he was the real Ladies' Man back in the days? He courted the now vice president Mrs. Darkwood back in school."

Sweet Revenge!

"That is enough for one day, Danny." Coulson who disliked the conversation from the start, cuts in. True, he did not mention Skye to Danny. He did not know why. May be it is because he was feeling insecure. Insecure about the fact that Danny would sooner or later realize he was having feelings for Skye. It was too deep a secret to share, even with Danny. He wanted to keep Skye his secret. But now things have changed. And Coulson was pretty sure Danny has already sensed the tension. Director Coulson is about to be found out for having a secret crush on his fellow agent. Damn you, Danny!

"Oh, come on Coulson!" Skye laughed. "Don't interrupt our productive conversation!"

Coulson gazed at Skye. She was so beautiful. A smile spread across his face. "You are not rebuking a direct order from your Director now, are you?"

"Ooooooo!" Skye whistled. "Have you been such a play boy that you are afraid of Danny might spoil your R-E-P-U-T-A-T-I-O-N!?"

Coulson watched as Skye high-fived Danny. He couldn't help smiling. "You will be in for a surprise, Skye!" He said.

"Really, Director Play Boy?" Skye stuck he tongue at him. The ill mannered bunny….. If I could just grab you now and plant a kiss on your lips….I would love to see the shocked expression in her face. Coulson chuckled to himself. Don't smile to yourself, Coulson's inner voice warned. Danny was watching him.

"Run now, I don't want you to be late for the brief in tomorrow first thing in the morning." Coulson said, waving a napkin at Skye.

"Ok, ok. I am going." Skye said, marching out of the kitchen. "Catch you later, Danny. It is sooooo good to have you here!"

Coulson watched as Skye walk through the corridor and into her bunk. He bit his lips. He waited. He did not want to make eye contact with Danny.

"Well….well….well….." Danny chuckled. "I smell something really fishy now Coulson!"

"Don't even start!" Coulson snapped.

"Hahahaha! Coulson, what were you thinking?" Danny said throwing a glass bowl at Coulson. Coulson just caught it, thanks to his quick reflexes. "Did you really think that you could keep a secret from me, Coulsy boy? And a very attractive secret at that!"

"Don't be such an ass hole, Danny. Try keeping your big mouth shut." There was no denying. If he did, Danny will go to lengths to prove his feelings for Skye, which of course would be very embarrassing from Coulson's part. But Coulson did not want to talk about her, not even with his best friend. She was his secret. It was enough thinking of her, ever single moment but now he had to confess his feelings to his nagging friend.

Atta boy, Coulson get ready to be spanked on your ass every time I am reminded of that you tried to keep a very sensitive secret from me!

"Sooooooo can I start with since when?" Danny asked following a Coulson who looked like a very angry bird.

"Shut up, Danny. There is nothing since ever."

"Oooooh, I have never seen you becoming sooooo protective of your feelings, now Coulsy boy."

Oh, Damn you Danny.

"I….I just…happens to like her like a friend…like a daughter….maybe….I don't know."

"Like a daughter? My ass!" Danny said disapprovingly. "If you really think of her as closer to be anything like your daughter, why would you just stare at her as if it is the end of the world, now?"

"Is it THAT obvious?" Coulson asked covering his face with his hands.

"Of course it is, and I am not a super spy!"

"Soooo back to my question…Since when did you…."

"Not now Danny boy. Not now."

"Alright, alright! You have all the time in the world,Coulsy boy. Hell man, you should see your face now."

"Just shut up and sleep, Danny."

"I can, but can you?"

The next morning, Danny was up early and was having a glass of fresh orange when Skye entered the dining room.

"Hi there Danny! How was the night?" She asked, planting herself in the nearest couch. "Where is Coulson, he is not sleeping in, is he?"

"He is not. He is in a meeting with some top secret agents or what not."

"I see. He has the worst timetable of all human beings. I was planning to take him to a Ball game. Do you think that he would like that?" Skye asked casually.

"Sure, he would." Sweet girl, thought Danny. She was concerned about Coulson. Danny liked it. "Do you have any plans for today?"

"Actually I do. I need to run and see my dad who was a psychopath but now is very nice because he was brainwashed and all."

"Oh." The girl was one hell of a character. He father must be the psychopath that Coulson was talking about. He never mentioned it was someone's father.

Coulson walked in, suit up and his usual self. He saw Danny talking with Skye and groaned. Not again….

"Hey" Coulson greeted Skye and nodded to Danny. "Where are you off to?"

"I need to go and say hi to Cal." Skye said trying to make a cute face.

"And?" Coulson asked, with an unstoppable smile emerging from his face.

"I….I thought …..aaahhhh"

"Yes?"

Oh, don't be such a flirt Coulsy boy, Danny thought to himself. You are betraying your darkest secret!

"I thought if you could let me… let me…" Skye hesitated.

Coulson couldn't take it anymore. His heart started to beat so fast that he did not want Skye to hear it. He put his hand in his pocket and took a bunch of keys out. "There you go."

Coulson watched as Skye's face suddenly getting brighter. Her eyes were full of enthusiasm.

"Oh, thank you Coulson. You are great!" And she hugged him. Skye just needed a good excuse to hug him, and there it was. She took the keys from Coulson, waved at Danny and started to speed off.

"Drive safe!" Coulson shouted after her.

"Don't worry. I will take care of her." She cried back.

"No I didn't mean her. I meant you."

She smiled and blew a kiss to him. He pretended to catch it and tuck it in his jacket pocket.

Coulson watched as she disappeared in the elevator and turned to face a flabbergasted Danny, gaping with an open mouth.

"Did you….Di you just…." Danny fought for words. "DID YOU JUST GIVE LOLA OUT FOR A RIDE?"

And he collapsed on the couch, hysterically laughing.

"Yes, I did." Coulson said, gritting his teeth.

"Phil Coulson gives his nobody-touches-Lola to a girl and asks her drive safe not for the sake of his car but for the sake of its rider! Coulson, did you just hit your head or something?"

Danny could not stop laughing. Coulson was not just having a sheer crush on a girl but is truly having very deep feelings for her. He was secretly in love! This is beautiful! Danny has seen Coulson in love with that Cellist. It broke him.

But this is different. This is amazing. Danny was happy for his friends.

"So when are you going to confess, mate?"

"Never." Coulson said. The one word was an enough confession of his feelings for Skye.

"Don't be such a dim-witted cry baby!" Danny said patting Coulson's back. "Do it and get it over with."

"No, she is not having the same feelings for me."

"What makes you so sure?"

"I don't know…."

"You just wait. I have a plan." Danny had that mischievous glint in his face.

Coulson didn't want to ask what the plan is. He already disliked it.
