This is based on the mayward baby prompt.
"So cute." Skye shakes her head with admiration.
Ward smiles lightly, moving his finger slowly on the soft hair, seeing the small precious pout forming under his touch.
"Really cute" Simmons holds her hands on top of her chest, and he thinks he sees a tear trailing from her eye to her cheek. "Cute as a button."
"He looks like a monkey" Fitz is saying from his place around Ward earning himself a threatening glare from the specialist.
"He means it as a compliment" Skye and Simmons are quick to solve the potential combustive situation.
"Of course I am" Fitz looks at him apologetically "I mean, look at him, he's bloody amazing."
"You did good, Ward" Coulson puts his hand on the specialist's shoulder "you both did. We are all so happy for you."
"Thank you sir" he smiles softly towards the tiny creature in his arms.
He walks back to the medbay after that. Sliding the door silently closed behind him. He walks towards the sleeping form on the bed, and sits beside her silently, trying not to disturb her. The small bundle is still secured in his arms, and he feels like his heart might explode as he looks at the tiny face, and listens to the sweet cooing sound he makes.
"Ward?" she whispers, moving to turn towards him.
"Yeah" he whispers back "it's us."
She moves forward on the bad, slowly moving to sit up "now that you're done showing him off, can I have my son back?" she's trying to sound casual, but he can hear the happiness in her voice, despite the exhaustion of child birth. He hands her the bundle, and sees her face lights up immediately at the sight of the baby and when their hands touch, around their newborn son she sends him the most genuine smile he had ever seen on her.
"I love you" he whispers, leaning in to kiss her, hungry and desperate, his heart almost breaking.
"I know" she breathes, kissing him back tenderly "I love you too, darling."
He pushes back, and sits on the bed beside her, his hand on her knee as she's holding the new addition to their family, murmuring soft endearments in Cantonese.
"Did they like him?" she asks suddenly, and it takes him a few seconds to realize what she's asking.
"Yeah" he smiles "they really really liked him. I think Simmons was crying, and Coulson congratulated us for a job well done" she smiles "and Fitz thinks he looks like a monkey."
She raises her eyes sharply towards him, and he suddenly fears for Fitz's life. "A monkey?!" she says, frowning.
"Well…" he tries to think fast.
"That's actually really nice of him" she smiles.
