A/N: Hey guys, sorry this is late! I uploaded the document to the website, but realised this morning that I didn't do more than that. This is also not very long, so...
Thank you to Maddison1803, changingdestiny40 and annavale23 for your reviews!
Skye wanted to believe him. But the way that the people she had considered family had reacted to finding out she had powers had her holding back. True, she used to think Grant was a monster. Then she realised that she had jumped to conclusions about someone she didn't really know. It was exactly what S.H.I.E.L.D. had done to her.
"Grant, I…" she stuttered out as he moved a little closer. "I don't know what to do." she mumbled, tears spilling from her eyes. She bowed her head and heard Grant close the distance between them until his arms wound around her.
"Skye." He whispered, squeezing her gently. "You got hurt and you found us. Together, we're all gonna find out what to do."
"How?" she asked, raising her head to meet his gaze.
"We'll talk about us and figure out what we want and what we can do to get that." He continued to whisper. "I promise."
His forehead was now touching hers. Skye's breathing hitched, but she kept her gaze locked with his. Grant leaned in, Skye mirroring his action.
"Okay! All paid for!" Kara announced as she walked out of the small store. Grant and Skye jumped apart. "I-oh." She stopped as she realised what she'd barged into. "Crap. I'm sorry, um…we-we should go." She moved towards the car, heading for the driver's seat when Grant cleared his throat.
"Not a chance, Kara. I'm driving. Back seat." He stated, striding around the car to claim the spot. Kara considered protesting, but thought better of it, considering that she'd gotten in the way of their potential first kiss.
She slid into the back seat with Skye and Grant getting into theirs. As they drove off, Kara noticed the movement of Grant's right arm and Skye's left one. As she watched, they linked fingers and held onto each other's hands tightly. Smiling, she raised her phone and took a picture of the hopeful scene.
