Hey there ! Here I am with a Skyeward oneshot, I wrote that a year ago when they were one of my favorite couple in the show along with FitzSimmons. Anyway I hope you'll like it :) Enjoy ;)
He's here. I can't believe that he's here. I thought I killed him with the four shots I "gave" him. But still I am not surprised to see him. After all he's a survivor as he once said, a warrior but also a traitor. When I shot him I thought I was done with him and the feelings I had. But seeing him now, it brought back all those buried feelings I thought left me at the end. I'm scared. I don't want to feel that, especially now that I have those powers which are hard to keep under control.
It's late but I can't stop thinking about him. The man who betrayed our team, who did so much harm to his close ones, the man that I loved or maybe still love. This man… Grant Douglas Ward…
The moment that I decide not to think about him anymore, I hear a shy knock on my door. I pray and hope for anyone but him. Yet I know that I'll see his face when I open the door. So I take a deep breath and open.
He looks at me with that intense look that he has the secret of and says "Skye". And just like that, the way he pronounces my name makes me understand that I'm not over him.
"Ward" I answer with my most indifferent voice; I hope that he doesn't notice the despair in my voice. He enters my room and says:
"You must wonder why I'm here and without Kara."
Yes, that's one of my multiples questions. But the way he says the name of agent 33 instantly makes me jealous. I'm supposed to hate this man but I see the kindness inside of him and the person he could have become if only Coulson had recruited him and not Garrett. Because of this I can't let go.
I don't answer his interrogation. I just stare at him and wait for him to start talking. Mostly because I can't talk; I'm thinking about the way things were between us… Our first kiss… The way I grabbed him and kissed him saying "You said you might die, so what the hell ?". That good memory stops right at the moment when I remember agent Koening's death and how I found him.
I try to be back in the present and look at him while he seems to struggle to know what to say. I give him a minute and start saying "Whatever you want to say, hurry 'cause I need to sleep". So he starts talking :
"First, I want to say that I'm truly sorry about everything that I did, not only to you but also to the team. I know that we were like a family and I ruined that. I also want to tell you that I actually care about Kara and without the whole brainwash; she still would be a great S.H.I.E.L.D agent. So please don't blame her and put my wrongs on her. She's an amazing person and you'll see with time."
He takes a deep breath to let me deal with his revelation.
"Skye, I'm sorry for everything – he looks at me in the eyes and somehow I know that he's sincere- I never meant to hurt you. You're the last person I wanted to hurt because… because… I love you".
He comes closer and his hands start coming near my face. He still looks at me in the eyes and waits for mine to allow him to touch me. His hands take my face :
"I am in love with you Skye and I am more than sorry for what I did, if I could go back and do things differently I would. Believe me".
Then, it's like time passes slower as our lips find each other and we kiss very slowly to enjoy the feeling. Then, too soon at my taste he stands back and leaves so fast that I'm not sure whether what just happened was a dream, a fantasy or reality.
Don't forget to leave a review so that I know if you liked it ;)
Kisses -Lalo
