DISCLAIMER: I don't own Agents of Shield. Never will.
A/N: Thank you for all the reviews and to everyone who is still following this series! It means a lot to me :) So, yes, here's another Philinda drabble. I'm sorry I really couldn't help myself. Hehe... Anyways, this is a ridiculously short drabble set after Ep 22 in which Coulson reflects on what's happening to him. Actually quite dark... Please review and let me know your thoughts? The next update will be based on the review left by Salkri Kachemench. More to come soon - can't promise when, but there will be. Enjoy :) x
Chapter 29
Frightened
"I'm frightened, May," he whispers, his eyes frantically searching for her own in the dark. "I am properly frightened".
She doesn't know what to say – doesn't know any combination of words that can possibly ease his mind. He looks so afraid, his face as pale as moonlight as he stares at her with a desperate expression she can't quite understand. But she doesn't need to understand to help him. Stepping forward into the darkness, May reaches blindly for his hands. His fingers brush against her own and she grasps them tightly. She can hear the labour of his breathing in sync with the rapid beating of her heart. She knows she can't help him, not really, but he needs to know…
"You don't have to be".
It's barely audible, but he hears it.
