Set during Girl In The Flower Dress, instead of running off to find Miles herself, Skye brings Grant in on her plan and he goes with her. After they ditch May...

Earlier that day...

She dragged Grant into her bunk and he was startled she could see that.

"Grant, I need to tell you something." She was whispering so he had to lean down to hear her.

"What's wrong?" He asked her, she bit her fingernail and wondered if he would help her, he had told her they wouldn't turn their backs.

"I know Miles...he's my ex. I need to know what he knows without setting May on him, I can get him to come in willingly..."

"What do you want to do?" He asked rubbing his eyes wearily.

"I want you to come with me, to bring him in ourselves."

"I think we should tell Coulson..."

"Look, I'm not very good at this whole trusting people thing...all those times the foster families sent me back after promising to adopt me."

"Hey, I told you that I wouldn't turn my back." His hand went under her chin and she tried to ignore the butterflies at his touch.

"Thank You."

She rolled her eyes at Miles when he demanded to know why she brought SHIELD into his home, he thought she was coming alone, she knew he would be upset when she showed up with Grant.

"Well actually, we're both SHIELD, this is my partner Agent Ward."

"Mr. Lydon, there are two ways we can do this..." She cut him off,

"The Hard way or the Harder way." Grant's lips twitched, and she did a silent victory dance in her head.

"You rolled over for SHIELD?!" Miles was angry and he moved towards her, Grant stepped in front of her.

"Take one more step and I will make you unable to move for the rest of your life." She put her hand on Grant's arm, letting him know to relax, that had the opposite effect on Miles, who was glaring at them.

"So you rolled around in the sack with an agent and now you work for them?" Miles spat, the door opened and May was standing there not amused, her hate-face was directed at Miles though.

"Go to Hell." May told him, then she shot him with the night night gun, looking at Grant and her.

"Good work, next time let the team know you want to do this quietly." May left just as she had come inside, silently.

"So we have to drag him down to the elevator and get him out to the van."

"Good thing my SO is so strong and firm." She poked his chest and was surprised when he pinned her between him and the wall.

"There is something between us, once we find out what Miles knows, meet me in my bunk so we can talk?" He asked her gently,

"Yes." She replied, trying to not pay attention to how she really wanted him to kiss her right now.

"I'm glad you trusted me with this." He told her as he half dragged Miles down the hallway. She pressed the button to call the elevator and offered him a smile.

"I'm glad I told you, maybe this trust thing isn't so bad, I could get used to being your partner." She nudged his shoulder playfully,

"I wouldn't mind that becoming a permanent relationship..." She saw him blush and pressed a kiss to his cheek.

"Let's get this mission over with and spend a few hours of downtime together." She suggested, just as the doors opened. He hefted Miles over his shoulder and they loaded him into the van, returning to the Bus. Once he woke they made him talk, discovering that he had met a woman in a flower dress, who paid him 1 million dollars to hack a Chinese SHIELD feed. They went to save him and instead the whole building went up in flames after he burned up. She clung to his arm, where it wrapped around her, she didn't see Coulson's amused expression or Jemma's excited poking of Fitz. When they made it back she joined him on the couch, until Fitzsimmons fell asleep, then followed him to his bunk. He held her while she told stories of her life and he told her some in return, they talked until May opened the door and told Grant that Coulson was going to give him 'the talk' if he found her in here. She kissed his cheek and ran back towards her bunk just in time for Coulson to check on her, before going to bed himself. As soon as she heard Coulson enter his room she opened her door, Grant was standing there and she yanked him inside.

"I think SO is going to stand for significant other from now on." She kissed his lips and squeaked softly as his hand brought her close to him. She pulled him down to her bed and they kissed for a while, until he laid his head on her stomach, closing his eyes.

"You alright there, Grant?" She whispered as her fingers ran through his hair,

"I trust you, so if it's alright I think I can sleep right here tonight." he sounded like a little boy and she nodded,

"Sounds good to me, sleep tight Grant." She whispered,

"Good Night Skye." She heard his breathing change and fell asleep as well. When May went to wake Skye the next morning, she smiled at the sight.

(Nope Grant wasn't HYDRA in this one. Yes it's corny, but I am suffering from lack of new Skyeward to ease my pain from the finale...I am not alone in this I'm sure.)
