CHAPTER TWENTY FIVE

Skye

When I wake up, my first thought is to panic. But then I roll over and find the comforting presence of Agent Grant Ward next to me.

I smile and cuddle up towards him. Grant stirs and opens up his eyes.

"Hey." He murmurs. Grant still hasn't recovered his full memory: but then, it's only been a week since he killed Marco and found us again. We reuntited Toby and him: Grant seems to remember everything about his childhood generally, but after that, it's foggy. He only just remembers me, but can't remember how he got onto the team, or anything we found in our countless missions. He doesn't even ever remember being engaged to a certain Anna Lysakia.

"Hey." I smile back at him. "How you doing?"

"Okay, I guess." Grant sighs. "Where are we again?"

"The Bus." I tell him, playing my fingertips across his bare shoulder. "The plane that you, me and the team live in."

"Oh, right." He says. Then he kisses me, smiling.

"I will never get tired of doing that." Grant whispers before kissing me again. I giggle, kising him back.

"So, tell me what you remember." I say. It's a little a game we play every morning, to see what Grant remembers.

"I lived in Massachutettes with 2 brothers." He says. "Alec and Toby. Alec hit Toby and I, but I tried to protect Toby. I joined S.H.I.E.L.D..." Grant frowns. "And I... can't remember this bit. I think I met someone called Anna? My SO was Agent Garrett... And then I met you." He says, his frown clearing up. "You interrogated me using 'Truth Serum'. Then I started to fall for you, and became your SO. We started dating, then a year later, I fell off a cliff, lost my memory and tracked you to a warehouse." Grant smiles, pleased with himself. I smile back.

A knock comes on the door. Reluctantly I get up. pulling on my robe. I open the door. Simmons stands there, a frown creasing her forehead. She pulls me out of the room and into the hallway, shutting the door as she does so.

"Skye, you know you asked me to run some tests on you since you were feeling sick in the morning?" Simmons asks. I nod.

"Why, did you find something?" I ask.

"Yeah, you're...you're...I don't really know how to tell you, but..." Simmons stumbles over her words.

"Tell me, Jemma!" I exclaim.

"You're pregnant!" Simmons blurts out suddenly. "You're pregnant."
