Ok so this is just an idea that popped into my head today. It takes place the day Skye was born and is part of the memories, that May had removed after Skye went missing. I am planning to make her remember soon in my other story so there is a possibility of Philinda. Coulson still has all these memories but he isn't sharing them with May as he thinks it will upset her, especially as she just found Skye AKA Lily. Anyway hope you enjoy and please let me know your thoughts J

Prequel to my story: Who is Skye?

Melinda May's Point of View

The day my daughter was born was the best day of my life. I can't even begin to explain the emotions I felt when she was placed in my arms. Minutes before she was crying her eyes out but when I held her close to me she stopped in a heartbeat. It was just be and her against the world. Her father was a mad man I was lucky to escape, but despite the hatred I had for him he gave me my daughter.

She looked so tiny and helpless and she snuggled into her pink blanket. As I stared at her in amazement there was a knock at my door, "Can I come in?" Philip Coulson my old friend asked. I nodded and he bounced into the room carrying flowers, balloons and Teddy's. "Phil she is just a baby how much did you buy?" I laughed. "Shut up she is the cutest little baby I have ever seen!" he said smiling down at her. "Want to hold her? GODFATHER!" I told him. "Really? Godfather?" he beamed.

I nodded and passed my daughter over to him. He gently cradled her head and I could see the same amazement in his eyes as he watched her sleep. "She really is cute Mel. What's her name?" he asked. "I'm thinking Lily." I replied. "Lily May. I like it!" he said grinning at me. "Well then that will have to be her name!" I laughed. "Hi lily!" Phil started to whisper to her. "Phil you will wake her!" I teased. "Good I want her awake!" he joked.

True enough he did wake her and she started screaming loudly. "OH SHIT!" he yelled as she squeezed her tiny hands into fists and filled the room with howls. "Give her to me!" I laughed. Phil passed her over like she was a bomb and within a few minutes she had settled down again. "There there, don't let uncle Phil annoy you honey!" I said as I rocked her. "Wow your already a natural!" he remarked as Lily drifted off to sleep once again. "I just seem to know what to do I cant explain it." I replied.

Coulson stayed with me that night taking Lily off me and placing her in her cot so I could get some sleep. However she didn't seem to like it and cried as soon as he put her down. "Give her here." I said to him as a yawn escaped my mouth. "I'm good you go to sleep, we are just fine!" he said taking Lily and sitting in the corner rocking her until she stopped crying. I smiled at the scene, he really was going to be like her father, and there was no better man for the job!

The following morning we were allowed to leave the hospital and Coulson raced to get the car. I met him at the door and was surprised to see Lola. "Really? I smirked. "Yeah my girls travel in style!" he said as he took Lily and fastened her into her baby seat. "Your girls huh?" I asked. "Yeah my girls. I was meaning to ask you Mel would you consider moving in with me?" he asked shyly. "What?" I gasped. "Move in with me?" He said again. "You sure?" I gasped. "Absolutely I want nothing more than to spend all my days with you two. I would really love to be like a dad for Lily." He told me.

I grinned at him excitedly as he pulled me in for a kiss. Just as our lips met Lily screamed loudly. "Looks like she doesn't like mom and dad ignoring her!" I laughed. Coulson laughed and opened the car door for me before hopping in. "Guess not!" he saying rubbing her chubby cheeks.

"So my place?" he asked. "No" I replied. He looked at me hurt before I added, "Our place Phil!" He smiled the biggest smile I have ever seen before taking off in Lola.

Ok so thats it hope you enjoyed :-) Please let me know what you thought I love feedback :-)
