~ Series of one shots of the adorable couple, SkyeWard ~
AN: Yes, I know that my updates have been longer and longer but Uni just started and everything's new and full of boofles for me :/ But are you guys super excited for T.A.H.I.T.I.?! I know I am! Anyway, let's get started :)
Set somewhere in between scenes BEFORE Skye's bracelet was removed :P
"I didn't do anything illegal, I swear," she professed instinctively after slamming her laptop shut then put her hands up to surrender. Her door had slid open with force urgently and there stood her mentor with a frown plastered on his face. She knew that look. She was in trouble.
She continued her rambling, "I mean, it was on YouTube. It's the most legal website in the history of legal, right? I saw it and just thought I had to download it. You may not love it, wait, maybe you do because you're secretly a big Disney baby; don't lie to me, Ward; but I freaking love it! You can't put me in the Sandbox because I fangirled and panicked and pressed 'download' so I can watch it over and over again."
He sighed with exasperation and walked over to her bed. She shuffled back and held a pillow in front of her and exclaimed, "No, I won't go down without a fight!"
"Skye – hey," he growled her name and grabbed her pillow off her grip. "What are you talking about?" he questioned. She furrowed her eyebrows and mumbled, "F-Frozen?"
He rolled his eyes and shook his head, "I'll come back later then." He was just about to walk away from all the drama when she grabbed his arm. "Wait, why are you here anyway?"
His head fell forward as he scratched his eyebrow. A small part of him was quite ashamed that he'd accused her of doing something so immature but he was very certain that he was right. Only she'd do something like this.
"Nothing," he lied, wanting to brush away his true intentions of barging into her bunk. It was too silly for him to deal with. She slithered to stand in front of him and search for his eyes. He was avoiding her. Of course he would. Something so silly.
"Don't lie to me. When you lie, your eyes twinkle."
"They don't!" he defended; almost too defensively. He clenched his jaw, gave her a glare and was prepared to walk out but he stiffened at the immediate touch of her cold hands on his chest. She arched an eyebrow and called his name condescendingly. Somehow, every time she used that tone, he just has to give in. And she's been using that superior power on him too often he doesn't know whether to be furious or comforted.
"My t-shirt. Give it back," he finally demanded, almost too stoically. She folded her arms and scoffed, "I'm offended that you would think that."
"Do you have any other explanations to why my favourite t-shirt is missing? This isn't the first time, you know."
"Which t-shirt?"
"The grey one."
"This grey one?" she pointed at the grey v-neck he was wearing. He pursed his lips, shook his head and growled, "The other grey one."
"Dude." She stared at her blankly in disbelief. "You have 50 shades of grey t-shirts. How would I know which one's your favourite?"
"You're a good liar but your eyes twinkle when you lie too, you know. I know you more than you think." He folded his arms and looked down at her. She raised her eyebrows then grinned at him, "Really? What's my favourite colour?"
"Purple," he answered without thinking for a second.
"Favourite shampoo?"
"Herbal Essence: Tousle Me Softly," he blurted softly.
"Alright," she crooned then proceeded to tousle his hair softly. He tsked and gently moved her hand away; even though deep down he loved how her fingers ran through his hair; before grumbling, "What's with the questions?"
"One more: Do I want to be a ninja or samurai?"
"Neither," he said flatly.
"What? I'm a ninja even in my sleep," she sulked.
"With you always wrapped up in a fetal position and your back facing the door, you'll be killed before you have time to yell 'haiya'."
And in that moment, her frown turned into an overexcited smile. "Have you been watching me sleep?"
"What? No. It's not what you think," he said, rubbing the back of his neck nervously, "It's my job as your S.O. to analyse your sleeping position so that I can teach you how to optimise your advantage when you're suddenly under attack while you're sleeping."
"In other words, you've been watching me sleep."
"Analysing you," he pressed on. She pressed her lips, nodded her head and replied, "Yeah sure, Rocky."
He bit his bottom lip to try his hardest to suppress a smile then looked around the room before spotting that her drawer was slightly ajar. He walked over to it and as he anticipated, she warned suspiciously, "Oh no, you don't want to look over there. I've got stuff in there."
He turned to look at her with his eyebrows raised and pulled open the drawer shelf slightly. She cringed then muttered, "Real kinky stuff in there, Ward."
He smirked and pulled on the drawer shelf a little more.
"Handcuffs, whips, all those kind of stuff." Her nose scrunching up with every word she said. Clearly her distraction plan wasn't working. That's it, it's done for. He'll find out what you did, Skye.
The drawer opened fully. There it was; his light grey t-shirt neatly folded on top of her other folded t-shirts. He sighed. I knew it. She was the t-shirt stealer.
He lifted the t-shirt up and faced her, demanding for an explanation. She fiddled with her fingers and mumbled, "It's just... we haven't been spending much time together lately and I... I don't know... missed you?"
Her brown doe eyes pleaded at him, afraid that he'd be angry at her. He couldn't be mad at her. Never. So he took small steps towards her and slowly lifted her arms out in front then slid her arms through the arm holes. And then, ever so carefully, he pulled the neck over her head. And as she straightened his t-shirt that was over her singlet, he perfected her hair in place. His hand lingered in her hair as he spoke quietly, "Why didn't you say so?"
All she could do was shrug. He smiled at her softly and pinched her chin before walking out; leaving her speechless. Her eyebrows narrowed and she blinked a couple of times. "What just happened?"
AN: I hope you guys liked this fluffier SkyeWard. Reviews would be awesome :)
