CONTROL
The next morning, both Kara and Ward were woken up by a wonderful smell. A smell that ended up bringing them both out of their rooms at the same time, both in their pajamas.
"You smell that right?" Kara questioned.
"Yah, I do." Ward confirmed.
The two followed the smell to kitchen and saw a surprising sight.
Skye, also in her pajamas, standing over the stove, frying up some bacon. On the island laid a stack of steaming waffles and three bowls of fruit.
When Skye heard the footsteps, she turned around and smiled. "Morning."
"Morning." Ward greeted as he looked at the food laid out. "Did you cook this?"
"Yes I did." Skye confirmed as she placed the bacon on a plate.
"Huh." Ward started bringing some of the food over to the dining table.
"What?"
"Oh nothing."
Skye feigned shock. "Do you think I'm incapable of cooking? Because I do know how to cook."
"Ahem." Kara coughed, which caused Skye and Ward to look over at her. She held an Eggo box in her hand and had a "Really?" look on her face.
Skye gave in. "Okay, I know how to use a toaster."
The three shared a look at burst out laughing before moving everything else to the table and starting to eat.
"So what are we gonna do about my…" Skye tried to find the right words. "Situation."
"That's what you want to call it?" Ward chuckled as Skye stuck her tongue out at him. "Well, I have a plan. All we need to do is…"
"Wait a second, who put you in charge?" Kara questioned.
"I didn't say I was in charge but…" Ward began to retaliate.
Skye interrupts as well. "She has a point though. Are we supposed to follow your lead on this?" Some of Skye's bitterness about the situation came out in her tone.
"No, I was just thinking that…"
"Why do men always think they're in charge?" Kara directed the question to Skye.
"I don't know. It's probably because their egos are the size of the universe." Skye replied stabbing another piece of her fruit.
This went on until the three finished eating their food. Ward decided for his safety that it would be best for him not to talk anymore. When it seemed like the girls' conversation had wined down enough, he raised his hand.
The girls turned to him. "What?" They snapped.
"Can I at least make a suggestion?" Ward asked.
Kara and Skye nod at each other. "You may." They reply in unison.
"Thank you, I have a friend." Ward starts only to be interrupted by Skye saying.
"Let me guess, you specializes in helping people like me."
"No, who is possibly like you."
"What?" Skye questioned.
"Lincoln and I have been friends for a long time. He could do special things that got him alienated at school."
"Because he was alien?" Kara inquired as she took a bite of fruit.
"Part at least. Anyway, he said that he found someone who could help him with his powers and I think he could help you with yours."
"Sounds good I guess, so when do we get to meet him."
Just then, there was a knock at the cabin door.
"How about now?" Ward opens the door to reveal Lincoln.
"Hey." The two shake hands, during which Lincoln gave Ward a shock.
"Ow!" Ward hissed, shaking his hand in the air a little to get rid of the sting.
"10 years later and you still fall for that." Lincoln chuckled as he dropped his duffle bag at the foot of the door.
Ward glares at him. "10 years later, and you still think you won't get karma."
"Ya we'll see." Lincoln scoffed.
The boys went over to the table and Ward introduced "Lincoln, this is Kara and Skye." Ward pointed to each girl when he said their name. "Kara and Skye, this is Lincoln."
"Hi." The girls greeted in unison.
"Now the score is even between boys and girls."
Kara and Skye shared a look. "Right." They turned back to their food.
Lincoln looked at Ward warily. "Are they planning something?"
"They're girls. Girls are always planning something."
"Should we be afraid?"
"Yes." Ward nodded. "Be very afraid."

Okay, I hope you guys have enjoyed this chapter.
I have two more things to do before I sign off.
One, if you read my one-shots "You Can Quote Me on That", you know that I have decided to recommend many things that I think should get some recognition, like fanfics, books, music, movies etc.
For this chapter, I want to recommend the fanfic "My Brother's Keeper" by LadyCizzle. This story is following Ward's siblings and involves them being InHuman. If you like the InHumans storyline, you should check it out. LadyCizzle is super nice and deserves some story love.
Two, I have opportunities to be an OC for a story that I am writing, I will post more of the details in the next chapter and in my one-shot series. Please review and say if you would be interested in it.
Until next time, please don't forget to follow, favorite and review!
Thank you!
