This is my FitzSimmons Secret Santa gift for 'theboyfallsfromthesky' on Tumblr, who requested, "A series of future scenarios with Fitz that Jemma kept dreaming about while she was stranded on the alien world."
Each chapter is essentially a different one of these, "future scenarios," that Jemma thinks about whilst on the planet. I ended up doing kind of a compare/contrast type thing between these fantasies and the planet meaning there IS some Will/Jemma but, rest assured, the focus of this fic is FitzSimmons. But you can't write about a planet with two inhabitants without actually writing about both of 'em!
Also, goes without saying but I don't own any of the characters etc. etc. etc.
The moment she sees the orange light against the blue landscape, every thought and seemingly impossible fantasy comes flooding back to her. Her mind is filled with the smiling faces of her friends, like a kaleidoscope of past memories and future hopes, and Jemma feels her heart begin to thump wildly as one face in particular pops up more than all the others.
Her chest seems to explode in time with the lone firework in the sky and Jemma is overwhelmed by the onslaught of Fitz.
Because she knows it's Fitz.
There's not a single doubt in her mind and the surge of emotions that she's bombarded with have Jemma on her feet in seconds. The combination of relief, joy, and excitement are strong, but nothing is quite as overpowering as the love that rushes into her at the understanding that Fitz had never given up. He'd kept fighting and now he's here on this planet that nearly destroyed her, prepared to take her home.
The flare of hope that she'd dampened down so long ago comes surging back to her and she beckons for Will to follow as she tears down the dune they've been sitting on and runs towards Fitz.
