A short bit of SkyeWard fluff.
Day 10: Tree
Skye held out the tiny tree to Grant. The little tree was only about half a foot tall, decorated in tiny laptops and what looked like miniature pistols. It seemed that the brunette had finally gotten into the Christmas spirit with two days to go before the holiday.
"What's this?"
"It's our Christmas tree. And look, it's got little computers and guns. And a hulu angel! I figured it represented us better than FitzSimmons' massive tree in the living room does. And it can go in our bunk on the window sill next to Lolani."
She looked so hopeful and excited at the prospect of them having a Christmas tree just for them. He hated to crush it.
"Okay. We'll have to tape it down though."
She beamed up at him and kissed him. "Thank you!"
Ward looked at her in confusion. "What are you thanking me for?"
"I wasn't sure you'd like it, considering neither of us are actually Christmasy people…" Skye looked down, her smile gone. He kissed the top of her head.
"If you want to have a real Christmas, then we'll have a real Christmas. Maybe tomorrow we can even bake cookies." At her cocked head, he added, "I need to get eggs to make cookies. FitzSimmons ate them all for breakfast."
She leaned up on tip town and kissed him again. "Thank you."
"I love you, Skye."
"I love you too." She smiled then disappeared into their bunk.
