Change Your Life
Skye was training with May one morning before 'the clone' as Tripp liked to call Agent Koenig, came into the training room and told Skye that Director Coulson wanted to talk to her.
As she started walking to Coulson's office she began thinking what he wanted to talk to her about. 'Does he need me to crack another code?' she asked herself. 'No, maybe he needs me to go back in the field' she thought 'No, he said he won't send me back into the field until I'm ready'
As she came to Coulson's office door she stopped and knocked waiting for permission to go in. "Come in" she heard Coulson say and opened the door.
"Koenig said you wanted to talk to me" said Skye walking into his office and stopped in front of his desk. "Yes I do, please sit down" said Coulson closing the file that was in front of him and moved it to the side, folding his hands in front of himself on the desk.
"Well, you should probably know that Grant Ward, is moving back to the Playground" said Coulson apprehensively to Skye watching her reaction intently.
"I told May yesterday that he has been seeing a therapist at one of our bases over in London, and he has been doing well, at first he wouldn't talk to her, he only wanted to talk to you. Over time he learned to talk to Agent Palamas, his therapist, she told me that he still asks about you and asks how you are doing along with how FitzSimmons are doing, when she told me this I was a bit apprehensive about telling him anything about you three, but I told her to tell him that you're all okay" explained Coulson
"Oh" was all Skye could get out.
"I promise that you Jessica and Andrew will be okay, I won't tell him anything about the twins until you decide the time is right" said Coulson walking around his desk to sit beside Skye on the chair to her right and taking her hand squeezing it reassuringly.
"I know you won't break your promise, when will he get here?" asked Skye curiously.
"He will be here in a couple of hours, it takes a couple days to get here from London" answered Coulson truthfully.
"Why didn't you tell me?" asked Skye getting mad.
"Because I didn't know how you would handle this" said Coulson softly trying not to get her even more worked up.
"Well now you know how I would handle this! You should have told me days ago when you decided it was best to bring him back here!" yelled Skye standing up from her chair and walking to the other side of the room, sitting on the couch.
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner, I really am Skye, but you need to decide when your going to tell him about Jessica and Andrew, they deserve to know who their father is" said Coulson getting up from his chair and folling Skye to the other side of his office, sitting down on the couch beside Skye.
"I know they deserve to know who their father is Dad, but I don't know how to tell him, I really don't" said Skye crying.
"Come here sweeatheart, I know this is going to be tough, but you'll figure out how to tell him, I have faith that you will" said Coulson hugging his daughter.
Skye continued to cry in her father's arms while he was holding her. "Sorry" mumbled Skye pulling away, while wiping her eyes with her hand. "There's no need to be sorry, you're just being human" said Coulson reassuringly standing up off the couch.
"I know, I just don't crying in front of you or mom, I'm going to go check on Jess and Andy, Thanks for telling me about Ward" said Skye getting off the couch to hug her father.
"Your welcome baby girl" said Coulson hugging his daughter back. "See you later" said Skye going over to the door. "See you later" said Coulson walking back over to his desk and sitting down in his chair beginning to read a mission report he had for Bobbi and Hunter, and with that she left to go to her room where her 2 month old twins are with Bobbi and Lance who are looking after them.
"Hi Bobbi, Hi Hunter" said Skye quitely closing the door quietly so she wouldn't wake the twins up.
"Hi Skye, May came and told us you were in Coulson's office, how did it go" asked Bobbi curiously.
"Good, I guess, how are Jess and Andy?" asked Skye walking over to their Moses Baskets to see them both alseep wrapped in their blankets.
"Good, at least their still sleeping, right after you left they woke up because Hunter was making faces at them, and they started crying" said Bobbi glaring at Hunter "So I told him to go and get Jemma before I killed him, and she helped me get them back to sleep" finished Bobbi.
"Thank you, remind me later to thank Jemma, You guys are the best" Skye said gratefully and went to hug her friends.
"Your welcome Skye, you know we would do anything for you and the twins" said Hunter.
"I know, thanks again" said Skye going back over to stand by the twins' Moses Baskets.
"We better get going Bob, Coulson wants us in his office to debrief us on a new mission" said Hunter to his girlfriend after checking his phone.
"Okay, bye Skye, see you later" sais Bobbi, both walking out of the room quietly so they wouldn't disturb the twins.
When Bobbi and Hunter left Skyechecked on the twins to make sure they were still sleeping, when she walked over to Andy's basket she saw him awake, staring at the ceiling.
"Hey there baby boy, what are you doing awake?" said Skye to her son. When Andy heard his mothers voice he smiled.
"Come here" said Skye taking him out of his basket and holding him close to her chest. "I missed you and your sister" said Skye kissing her sons head, and walked over to the rocker that is in her room and sat down holding her son. Skye was very thankful for the quiet moments she got with her twins. As she rocked her son his eyes slowly fluttered closed. Skye smiled lovingly down at her son.
A couple minutes later Jessica decided to wake up crying. Skye got up out of the rocker and placed her now sleeping son back in his Moses Basket and kissed his forehead before turning her attention to her daughter.
"Hey there baby girl there's no need to cry, mommy's here" said Skye taking her daughter out of her basket and walking over to the rocker is to rock her daughter to sleep. "It's okay, mommy's here, shh..." said Skye to her daughter trying to get her to stop crying and go back to sleep. A few minutes later the crying stopped, she was now happy and content in her mothers arms. "You just wanted mommy to hold you" said Skye lovingly to her daughter, placing a soft loving kiss to her daughters forehead.
a couple minutes later Jessica was happily sleeping in her mothers arms. 'I definitely love the quiet moments I get with them' thought Skye looking down at her daughter slowly moving out of the rocker and walking over to her daughters Moses Basket to put her down, pulling the blanket around her before kissing her forehead and moving over to her bed to try and nap before they woke up again.
Before Skye would have liked she was woken up by her mother.
"I'm sorry Skye but you have to wake up" said her mother.
"Five mo'minutes" mumbled Skye into her pillow.
"Sorry, but Jess and Andy are up and their hungry" said Melinda effectively waking Skye up.
"Okay, I'm up now" said Skye sitting up and moving to the edge of her bed before getting out of bed and walking over to the Moses Baskets her twins are in, picking up Jessica.
After Skye feed Jessica and Andrew, she had to change their clothes because they both puked all over them.
"Mom, can you help me change Jessica while I change Andrew?" Skye asked her mother.
"Of course, come here Jess" said Melinda taking her granddaughter from her daughter and bringing her over on Skye's bed to change her.
"DO you want me to put her in a onesie and a pair of pajamas?" asked Melinda to her daughter once Jessica was out of her dirty clothes and diaper and changed into a clean diaper. "Yeah" said Skye handing her mother a clean onesie and a clean pair of pajamas, and going to pick out a clean onesie and a clean pair of pajamas for Andrew.
Once the twins were clean in clean clothes and asleep in their Moses Baskets, Skye and Melinda went and sat on Skye's bed.
"You're doing a great job with them Angel" said Melinda to her daughter.
"Thanks mom, that means a lot" said Skye leaning over to hug her mother.
"Your welcome" said Melinda hugging her daughter. "Your dad told me, that he told you Ward is coming back to the base, and that you should tell him about Jessica and Andrew" added Melinda.
"He did yes, and I'm still thinking about a way to tell him about the twins" said Skye.
"I know its going to be hard but I know you'll get through it" said Melinda reassuringly.
"I know, is he here yet?" asked Skye curiously.
"Yes, he is, he is in your fathers office right now getting his tracking bracelet, like the one you had way back when, but its a little different, this will not only tell us where he is at any point in time and not allow him on the internet , but if he even tries to run it can inject him with even dendrotoxin to knock him out for a week, that includes if he go's anywhere he is not allowed, he is not allowed in the lab, or the briefing room, he is also not allowed to go on any missions until we know we can trust him, and you're still not allowed on any missions either" said Melinda directly to her daughter.
"Okay, I know, I wasn't about to suggest I go back into the field again, I don't think I even want to go back to the field ever again if I'm being completely honest" said Skye to her mother.
"It's fine if you don't want to go back in the field, your father and I won't be mad if you decide not to" said Melinda.
"I don't want to go back to the field, I'll still help however I can from here, but I don't want to go back to the field, I want to raise my children without worrying about when I'm going to be leaving them and possibly not seeing the ever again, I don't want that to happen" said Skye sadly to her mother with tears in her eyes.
"I wont let that happen Angel, I promise, I'll go tell you father that you don't want to go back in the field, did you decide if you want Ward to know about Jessica and Andrew yet?" asked Melinda curiously to her daughter.
"I want him to know about his children" said Skye deciding that the twins needed him in their life just as much as he needed them in theirs.
"Okay, whe do you want to tell him?" asked Melinda proud of her daughter for making the choice to tell him.
"Can I tell him today?" asked Skye curiously.
"Of course, do you want me to bring him in here so you can tell him?" asked Melinda.
"Sure, that would help, the twins will probably wake up soon though" said Skye hoping the would sleep for a little longer today than they did yesterday.
"It's okay if they wake up, I'm sure once you tell him he will want to meet them properly" said Melinda to her daughter. After telling Skye she would come back with Ward soon, Melinda then left quietly to make sure the twins didn't wake up.
A half an hour later, after Melinda talked to Phil about Skye not wanting to go back to the field, Melinda then went back to Skye's room with Ward following her. When she got ourside her door Melinda said for him to wait outside, so he waited
INSIDE SKYE'S ROOM
Skye was sitting in the rocker with Jessica in the nook of her right arm and Andrew in her left, when Melinda came in.
"Hi mom" said Skye looking up at her mother before turning her gaxe back down to her sleeping children in her arms.
"Hi Angel, are they awake or asleep" asked Melinda to her daughter.
"Their up, they woke up about five minutes ago, why?" asked Skye curious to why her mother would want to know if they were up or not.
"Ward's out in the hall, do you want him to come in?" asked Melinda.
"Sure" answered Skye getting nervous.
"Okay, I'll tell him to come in" said Melinda walking to the door and closing once she was out.
OUTSIDE SKYE'S ROOM
While Ward was waiting outside Skye's room he began wondering why she wanted to talk to him about. 'what could she possibly need to tell me?' wondered Ward, snapping Ward out of his thoughts Melinda walked out of Skye's room to tell Ward he could go in.
"She said you can go in" said Melinda to Ward before opening the door to her daughters room for him to go in, when he heard a baby crying inside Skye room, walking into the room he stopped shocked, when he stopped walking Melinda shut the door.
INSIDE SKYE'S ROOM
Skye was wondering if telling Ward about Jessica and Andrew was the right thing to do 'what if he doesn't even want to know his children, what if he's going to get mad at me for not telling him when I found out I was pregnant' a lot of 'what ifs' where going through her mind when she heard her daughter cry snapping her out of her thoughts.
"It's okay baby girl mommy's here, please don't cry" said Skye to her daughter. Jessica stopped crying a couple minutes later.
Just when Jessica stopped crying Skye looked up to see none other than Grant Ward standing in her room.
"Hi" said Ward to Skye shocked to see her holding not on but two babies.
"Hi" said Skye taking in his appearance, noticing he was clean shaven and that he got his hair cut since the last time she saw him.
"How are you?" asked Ward taking in her appearance, noticing her hair seemed shorter and in a bun and that she now had bangs since the last time he saw her.
"I'm okay, how are you?" asked Skye to Ward wanting to tell him he was the twins father.
"I'm fine, are..are they yours?" asked Ward stuttering a little, wondering who their father was since he didn't see Tripp, or the new guy Hunter with her in the room.
"Yes, Ward I need to tell you something" said Skye wanting to get this over and done with. "But you might want to sit down first" added Skye with a nervous smile.
"Okaayyy" said Ward dragging his words out a little, and sitting down in the chair that was in front of Skye.
"So I guess I should start from the beginning" said Skye nervously, while trying not to drop Jessica or Andrew. "Over nine months ago I found out I was pregnant, and I was shocked to find out I was pregnant with not one but two babies, which scared me at the time and still does today, anyways, while I was pregnant my parents, I sure hope they told you Coulson and May told you they're my parents, if not I just did, but while I was pregnant they told me if I wanted to tell you i could and that they wouldnt't stop me from telling you, when I told them I would think about it, I didn't know it would take me this long to decide how and when to tell you, but it has, so Ward I would like you to meet, Jessica May Ward and Andrew Thomas Ward" said Skye looking at the sheer shocked look Ward had on his face.
"They're mine?" asked Ward after a few minutes of silence between the two.
"Yes they are, would you like to hold them?" asked Skye curiously looking down to see both od them sleeping peacefully in her arms.
"Yeah, are you sure you want me to hold them?" asked Ward warily.
"You're their father Ward, you can hold them whenever you want" said Skye laughing slightly trying not to wake one or both of them up.
Seeing Skye struggling, Ward decides to move closer so she doesn't struggle as much, and moves to take his daughter from Skye's arms. 'His daughter one thing I NEVER thought I would say'
"She looks like you Skye" said Ward looking down at his daughter in the nook of his right arm sleeping peacefully without a care in the world.
"That's what everyone says, do you want to hold Andrew too?" asked Skye.
"Sure" said Ward trying not to mover his daughter to much in fear of waking her up. Skye moved over so that she could pass Andrew to Ward without waking him up.
"I think Andrew looks like you Grant" said Skye looking at Ward with Jessica and Andrew.
"Yeah, he does" said Grant looking at his son who was sleeping peacefully in the nook of his left arm, 'I have a son! Definitely something I never thought I would say' then looking over at his daughter who was sleeping in the nook of his right arm.
"They're beautiful Skye" said Grant looking over at Skye who was still sitting in the white rocking chair. 'and they're ours' Grant added to himself.
After a few minutes of quiet both Jessica and Andrew woke up crying.
"Here let me have Jessica" said SKye taking Jessica from Grant so she could try to get Jessica to stop crying.
Once Jessica wasn't in his arms Grant turned his attention to his crying son. "shh...It's okay daddy's here now..." said Grant to his son trying to sooth him. "He's probably hungry" said Skye to Grant, while feeding Jessica.
"Your probably right, I'm just going to stand up and try to get to quiet down" said Grant standing up from the chair he was in.
"Your a natural with him Grant" said Skye from where she was on the other side of the room after she was done feeding Jessica, and walking over to Grant so she could give Jessica to Grant so she could feed Andrew.
"How far apart were they when they were born? And when were they born?" asked Grant curiously to Skye.
"They were born May second, and they were seven minute's apart" said Skye answering Grant's questions, while feeding Andrew. Once she was done she noticed he needed his diaper changed.
"Can you pass me a clean diaper and the wipes?" asked Skye going over to the changing station that was in her room.
"Of course" said Grant walking over to where the diapers were getting two and grabbing the wipes.
"Thanks" said Skye when he put them on the side of the changing station. Once she was done she handed Andrew to Grant who passed her Jessica and changed he diaper. What they didn't see was Melinda and Phil opening the door to look inside.
OUTSIDE SKYE'S ROOM
Phil came down from his office and wanted to know how everything was going. so he went to Skye's room and what he didn't expect to see was Melinda outside Skye's bedroom door eavesdropping on Skye and Ward.
"What are you doing Mel?" asked Phil as he stopped walking to stand beside his wife.
"Just making sure Skye and the twins are okay" said Melinda taking a step back from Skye's door.
"Oh really? Because it looks like you were eavesdropping on them" said Phil knowingly to his wife.
"Well the you'd be right, I just wanted to make sure that Ward wouldn't hurt them" said Melinda with a worried glance towards Skye's bedroom door.
"I'm sure they'll be fine" said Phil putting an arm around her shoulders. "Maybe we should check just to make sure they're okay" said Melinda to her husband.
"Yeah, maybe we should" said Phil. Melinda walked quietly to Skye's door and quietly opened the door. What they didn't expect to see was Ward willingly helping Skye take care of Jessica and Andrew. When they looked at each other, they smiled at the heart warming scene that they just witnessed and quietly closed the door.
