My dearest readers! I hope you had a great christmas and get ready because we're hitting 2014. 2013 has been a shitty year for me. Lol I'm glad it's almost over. What about you?

This chapter has no aim. I just wrote it so you guys wouldn't have to wait too long. The next one isn't even written yet and it looks like I'm running out of ideas.

.

Zack : Tell your brother to let me know who he is ;) I'm excited for the next episode. I can't wait anymore.

French girl : Coucou. Je savais que tu parlais français. Je le sentais haha ! Oui, trop fluffy j'aime pas! J'arrive pas à arrive du trop fluffy de toute façon. Le MayWard, je le trouve bizarre mais j'aime sans aimer. Tu comprends? Moi, non xD Mais je le sens plus que le SkyeWard même si j'écrirai jamais du MayWard. Je commence à apprécier le WardSimmons :D

Awesomekittycat : thanks for reviewing. And I think I got what you meant. I'll keep your idea in mind ! :)

Thanks guys for reviewing and all the alerts :)

Disclamer : Nothing belongs to me.

9 - Movies, ice cream, and guiltiness.


"So, let's try again," Coulson said, pinching his nose as he closed his eyes, fighting off a sudden headache. They were killing him. They were really killing him. "Which movie do you want to watch?"

And just like the three first time, there was way they were going to act like adults.

"Cinderella!"

"Sleepy Beauty!"

"Awiel the little merwaid!"

"The 101 dalmatians!"

"Bambi!"

They suddently shut up and they all turned around to look at Ward. Did he just say he wanted to watch Bambi?

"What?" he crossed his arms, defying anyone to add anything.

Leo, currently sitting next to him, was trying hard not to laugh. Jemma smiled apologetically at him. Coulson rolled his eyes while May—fed up with this childish behavior—, left the room.

"Why are you looking at him funny?" Charlie asked, sitting on Skye's laps, Jack the captain under one arm, and her Iron Man doll under the other one. "I like Bambi too."

"I like it too, baby," Skye said, hidding her face in Charlie's hair.

"Are you making fun of me, Skye?" Ward asked.

Skye burried her face even deeper. "Me? I would never dare!"

But clearly, she was making fun of him.

"We'll see if you'll still be laughing tomorrow morning during your training." he smirked and wanted to laugh out loud when she looked at him, outraged.

"You're no fun!"

"You're too fun!"

She stuck her tongue out at him.

"How very mature of you!"

Running out of ideas or nasty remarks, Skye just showed him his middle finger, being careful enough so that Charlie wouldn't see anything, and mouthing a gentle bite me!

And Ward just laughed. With this genuine laugh of him. Because he loved Skye's temperament. She was full of suprises and she didn't play nice. Never. And he liked that.

"Okay. . . Bambi or not?" Coulson asked, breaking the silence conversation between Skye and Ward.

"Yeah, go for Bambi!"


The night flew slowly.

Pretty slowly. Because it was already the third disney movie and Charlie was still wide awake.

"Can we watch the Gwinch now?" Charlie saying, pouting very hard and blinking her eyelids a few times.

"You want to watch the Grinch? This unpretty green thing? You want to watch this?" Jemma asked, puzzled.

She always had found the Grinch was awful. His long claws and his nasty teeth were enough to make her faint. However, Charlie found him pretty funny and his ugliness didn't even bother her. Children made the best judges.

"You guys are ok with that?" Skye asked, glancing around and noticing that Leo and Skye were almost asleep, trying hard to stay awake. Coulson left awhile ago and only Ward seemed to be as awake as Charlie and appeared to be okay with Charlie's decision. "Then, let's watch The Grinch!"

"Yeah!" Charlie exclaimed as she sat down on the cushion that Skye had put on the ground so that she could seat.


"Stay awake, Charlie, you still gotta take your shower," Jemma gently said to the little girl as she turned off the television.

"But I already got one," Charlie whined, furiously rubbing her eyes. She was tired and she definitely didn't want to take a shower. "I don't want another one."

"You may not want to have another one but you have to," Ward said, gently tickling her. "You got ice cream all over you. Ants will eat you if you don't take a shower. And Skye won't let you get into her bed."

Jemma smiled as she watched Ward lifted Charlie upside down in his arms.

"Wawd, don't," Charlie whined, her eternal enthusiasm gone.

"Oh, someone is tired, aren't you?" Ward kept teasing her. "But you can't sleep just now."

Jemma didn't noticed it right away but now she saw it. Charlie was turning white.

"Wawd, put me down," she squirmed, tears starting to run down.

"Hey, hey, what's wrong?" He gently patted Charlie's back.

"I don't feel good."

Ward carefully settled her down and looked her over, trying to find what was wrong. Jemma softly put her hand on Charlie's forehead, looking for any fever.

"My belly hurts," She hiccuped, tears shining on her small cheeks. "I want Skye!"


They hadn't wanted to wake Skye up but Charlie hasn't stopped crying so far.

She had cried before her shower, during her shower, after her shower.

She had cried even harder when Jemma had tried to take off her bathrobe. She was tired and cold. And the bathrobe was keeping her warm. If she couldn't get Skye then Jemma wouldn't get her bathrobe. Now way!

"I'm getting Skye." Ward said as Charlie sat down on her bed, only dressed in her bathrobe. She was shaking and silently crying but she wouldn't look at them because she was mad. She didn't want to have a shower in the first place.

"She just had too much sugar. She'll be alright in a few hours. She just needs to sleep," Jemma reassured him because she could feel his anxiety. He wasn't used to taking care of children, let alone sick ones. She knew he hated not having control of things and sickness was one of those things.

"But she's not fine right now," he protested. "And Charlie is stubborn. You and me know she won't cooperate until Skye comes. So, I'm getting her."

Jemma just nodded and let him leave the room. He was panicking and that may be the only time she was seeing him like that.


"I'm sorry," Ward immediatetly apologized when Skye got up, clearly exhausted. "She's just being miserable, she kept asking for you and crying and—"

Skye gave him a quick smile. She wasn't mad. "Where is she?"

"In her room. She refused to put some clothes on her," he informed her.

Skye slowly stepped into Charlie's room and spotted her right away. "Hey baby," she moved towards the child and Charlie stood on the bed and wrapped her tiny and shaky arms around her big sister's neck.

"You came," Charlie whispered between two sobs. "My belly is hurting me and I'm tired."

"Of course I came, Charlie. I'm always coming for you," Skye reassured Charlie. "And I know you're tired, baby." She gently pulled away and looked through her tired blue eyes. "You're putting your pyjamas on, okay. Then we'll go to bed."

Jemma who had silently watched the interaction between the two gave Skye Charlie's pyjamas. While Skye helped the toddler getting dressed, Jemma left the room, passing by Ward who had remained in the doorway.

"I think she just had too much sugar in her system," he finally said, feeling a bit stupid for having been so dramatic.

Skye just nodded, not looking at him, her full attention on Charlie. "Your bed or my bed?"

"My bed," Charlie quickly answered, already crawling upon the blankets. Then, she thought about something. "Skye, I forgot Jack and Iron Man."

Remembering that he had them in his hands, Ward walked into the room "Here they are. I kept them for you."

Charlie gently took them and safely put them around her. "Thanks, Wawd," she said putting her thumb into her mouth and closing her eyes.

"Yes, thank you," Skye said when she looked at him. "for taking care of her. Tired children are tough to deal with."

"I shouldn't have allowed her to have that much ice cream in the first place," he felt guilty. It was stupid to feel guitly about something like that but he did feel stupid.

She rolled her eyes at him.

"Don't be silly. It's ok," Skye carefully crawled over Charlie who was already fast asleep. She carefully strocked her tummy, trying to soothe the pain. "Besides, tomorrow morning you'll be her new buddy buddy because you let her have tons of ice cream."

He just smiled. Buddy Buddy. It sounded good.

"Just close the door when you leave please," Skye put a quick kiss on Charlie's hair and lay her head down on the pillow.

Ward didn't move for a moment though Skye had fallen asleep almost immediately. He continued on watching them for a long moment before deciding it was time for him to sleep as well.

As I said. Nothing interesting in this chapter. Just a chapter.

About the ants, people used to say to me that if I'm covered with sweet things and I don't take a bath before going to bed then ants would come and eat me. It was scary at that time. Now ants nests make my blood run cold. Really. Don't laugh!

I don't know when I'll update again.

Anyway, Happy New Year. Have a great New Year's Eve. My resolution is to stop making resolutions!

Don't forget to review.

Hasta Luego :)
