May smiled this time, a real smile, as she quietly left the couple in the cell.


Ward smiled sleepily and nestled closer to his pillow. It was the best sleep he had had in months. Unfortunately, his peace was rudely broken by someone shaking his shoulder and telling him to wake up.

"Go 'way" he grumbled, squeezing his eyes tightly.

"Ward…" the person's voice was oddly familiar. Ward groaned and cracked one eye open. As he woke up, he realized that it was not his pillow that his arms had been wrapped around, but rather Skye's waist. Blushing slightly, he pushed himself up.

"Morning, sleeping beauty." Skye smiled as she sipped an enormous mug of coffee.

Ward started to reach for it, but missed as Skye held it out of the way.

"Get your own," she said, smirking.

"Where is everyone?" he asked, rubbing his eyes.

"May's piloting, FitzSimmons are in the lab, and AC is waiting for you in his office."

"You wanna come with me and get a cup of coffee?" Ward asked.

Skye shrugged and held up her hand, indicating that she wanted Ward to help her up. He rolled his eyes, knowing she could get up perfectly well on her own. It seemed as though nothing had changed. Skye trailed behind Ward like a little puppy and Ward had to keep glancing behind him to make sure she was still there.

"C'mon, Coulson's waiting" Skye said as Ward finished his first cup of coffee and refilled it.

"Do I have to?" Ward asked, slipping an arm around Skye. She wriggled away, a small smile on her face.

"Oh, and welcome back to the team, robot."
