Chapter 13
Spoilers Season 1 Episode 19
Skye's POV
Why is she not back yet? What if he hurt her? No don't think like that, she can take him, she has told you that before. I think to myself.
Knock Knock knock
Someone knocking on the hotel door snaps me out of my thoughts and pacing of the room. Grabbing an ICER from the desk I slowly make my way towards the door and look through the small hole and I'm shocked to see who it is.
"Commander Hill" I say opening the door.
"I'm not the Commander any more. You can call me Maria or Hill if you want" She says stepping into the room and smirking when she sees the ICER in my hand. "Was it your Mum that told you to answer the door with a gun" She knows I say to myself.
"It's an ICER" I tell her not knowing what else to say.
"She's fine by the way" she tells me and I let out a sigh of relief "I told her where you are she should be here soon"
"Thank you for telling me. I have been worried" I tell her feeling like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders. "but, how do you know?"
"I had been helping her look for you since I found out about you" She tells me "and May called me when she found out that you were on the plane" I just nod surprised, thinking that M had only told Fury about me. "May was my S.O a few years after you were taken. I found her drunk and upset one night and she told me everything" Hill further explains.
"Wow I didn't know she was your S.O" I say shocked that M had never mentioned it before.
"Yes, she was a great S.O" she smiles and I feel a little sick because talking about this makes me think of Ward.
"I better get going. I just wanted to let you know she was alright" Hill says walking towards the door and opening it "and Daisy" she says turning to look at me and I smile hearing it from someone other than M for the first time. "I'm glad you are okay and that you found each other" I open my mouth to thank her but she is already gone.
May's POV
"There is a bed in Skye's room" Phil says as I edge closer to the door needing to see my daughter. Still not believing she got taken again, because I was not there. "She will be excited to see you. She was worried that Ward had done something to you" he tells me and I almost run out of the room. Finding the room that Skye is in I knock on the door and here footsteps coming closer before the door has been ripped open and she is giving me a hug still holding an ICER in one hand.
"Are you alright?" we both ask each other, while walking into to the room and closing the door.
"I'm fine" she says while throwing the ICER on to the bed. "You okay?" she asks again.
"I'm fine" I say pulling her into another hug. "I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have left you alone with him"
"It's okay. you didn't know, none of us did" she says returning the hug.
"No, I should not have left you….again" I say mad at myself for not learning, my mistake the last time I left her alone.
"It's fine. Nothing you can do about it now" I hear her mumble. "I thought he might of….." she trails off not finishing.
"I have told you before I can handle Ward" I say not missing her flinch at the mention of his name. "He didn't hurt you did he?" I ask needing to be sure even thought Coulson and Hill told me she was fine.
"My forehead hurts a little from when I head butted him" she smirks. "But other than that i'm okay" she sighs sitting down on the bed. "I kissed him" she mutters a few minutes later.
"I guessed that, when Coulson told me that you were holding his hand in the video" I say sitting down next to her.
"No before that when we were at the Hub and a few minutes before I realized that he was…." she trails off shaking her head. Not knowing what to say I pull her in to a hug. "I shouldn't have done that I shouldn't of let myself get close"
"There is nothing wrong with letting yourself get close to people Skye" I tell her and she pulls away moving to the opposite side of the bed.
"Yes there is that is how you get hurt" she snaps and I almost flinch at her accusing tone. "Sorry" Skye whispers falling back on the bed. "I just thought he was different and I wasn't expecting him to be one of the bad guys" she mumbles sounding a lot younger than she is.
"Neither was I. He seemed like a good guy" I whisper disappointed in myself for not realizing that he was just playing us. Skye doesn't say anything she just continued to stare at the celling, as tears begin to roll. I move to touch her shoulder but she flinched away when she saw my hand coming, I wouldn't let it show but, that really hurt. "Skye, you can't stop getting close to people. Not everyone is going to disappoint you" She sat there for a while before she got up and wiped the tears from her face and sat up.
"Your right" she says and sits beside me again. "You haven't" she smirks bumping my shoulder with her own.
"I am always right" I say hoping I made her feel little better, but not knowing because she normally hides her feelings unless it she is really upset. "I'm going to have a shower. Are you okay?" she nods and I get up and walk into the small bathroom.
When I come out I'm a little shocked to find her pacing. "Okay, what are you freaking out about?" I ask remembering her saying that she paces when she is freaking out. She continues to pace with a far away look in her eyes. "Daisy" I say and she stops mid pace, facing away from me towards the door. "What's wrong?" I ask moving to stand infant of her.
"What's going to happen?" She answers my question with a question of her own. "I get that we are going to try and catch Garret but what about after that. If we catch him and that's all over then what. S.H.E.I.L.D is gone it's not like we have a real job to go back to." She starts rambling as she continues to stare off in to the distance not really looking at anything in particular. "And I mean you and AC probably have some sort of plans for this. Fitzsimmons and Trip they have a family they can go to. I….I don't have anything like that and the only real home I have ever had is locked up in a S.H.E.I.L.D base. What am I going to do?" she looks at me then expecting me to have an answer but, I don't know what to say. I'm to shocked and a little hurt that she does not seem to be planning on sticking around much longer.
"I don't know what your going to do Skye" I start but pause when I see her shoulders slump. "but, your not alone anymore you have this team. Fitzsimmons think of you as a little sister. Coulson acts like your the daughter he never had. Trip wanted to help you before he had even meet you conscious and not in a hospital bed. I am your Mum, I know I haven't been there for you in the past but, if there was something I could do to change that I would but, I can't. All I can do is be here for you now" I continue my rambling and wipe away the tear that is rolling down her check. "I don't know what you want to do once we finish this but, you still have a house out there. I know…. I know you don't remember it and that some bad things happened there but, it is still your house. If you want to we can go there" I finish and suddenly feel really nervous not knowing what she would think of my rather spontaneous plan to go back to the house she had been taking from. Skye doesn't say anything at first her mouth just hangs slightly open while she continues to stare at me before she attacks me with a hug.
"Thank you" she mumbles in to my shoulder and I feel her tears start to soak in to my shirt as I hold her.
