A/N: Hello my babies!

Daisy gets a speeding ticket while driving Lola...with May in the car.
OoOoOoO
The mission started out with gunfire.
It was normal for them. In fact, Daisy honestly felt better when people were shooting at her. Missions that went well only served to make her paranoid.
After successfully finding an underground HYDRA training facility, the ground team moved to take down any agents on the inside. Three SHIELD agents were found locked in cells, one of them badly beaten.
So when the female victim asked Coulson if he'd stay with her on the ride to the medical center, he was inclined to say yes.
It wasn't the first time this had happened. Coulson was a friendly face, a trusted ally. Even low ranking members of the organization knew about his work with the Avengers. However, there was a slight hitch.
Having been on recon in Lola when he got the call about SHIELD finding the base, that meant his beautiful red Corvette would be sitting there until he could get back to her.
So he hesitated a moment, keys in hand, trying to decide what to do, until his eyes caught Daisy.
Daisy? No.
But then again…
May was on the other side of the compound, and he didn't want just anyone driving his girl.
He hummed to himself, torn, before shaking his head.
"Daisy." The young agent jogged over.
"What's up Coulson?"
He threw his keys lightly into the air and she caught them easily. "Don't wreck my car. And get May along the way."
He turned before he could see the slow smile spread across her face. Phil didn't want to regret making that decision. He cast one glance at his car before joining the hurt agent in the ambulance.
Daisy tossed the keys up playfully and caught them, excitement flaring in her chest. Driving Lola? It was a big step of trust for him. She felt a bit...pleased.
She headed over to where the car was parked and, after adjusting the seat and figuring out where the lights were, she started the engine.
She felt the low purr of the engine, the hum of the beautiful car coming to life under her hands. It was breathtaking. She was hesitant on the gas at first.
After getting the hang of the brakes, she slowly made her way over to the other side of the facility, where Melinda was waiting to be picked up. Her eyebrows raised slightly when she saw Daisy in the driver's seat.
"I'm surprised he gave you the keys." She commented, sliding into the passenger side.
"Same." Daisy bit her lip, a mischievous glint in her eye. "What do you say we take the interstate back?"
Of course, May could always say no. She was the cautious one, and she knew that Coulson would want his car back to the base ASAP. However….it was close to midnight. And the roads would be quiet. And the pleading look that Daisy was giving her, well it was hard to say no.
"Just be careful." May cautioned, buckling with a sigh. Daisy's smirk blew into a full blown grin and she put Lola in drive.
For a while, things were actually going pretty well. Surprising to May, Daisy wasn't a bad driver. She knew her way around that car as though it were her own.
The problem was her lead foot, something May warned her about every five seconds right up until the flashing lights showed up behind them. Daisy's grin slid off her face as she pulled over, and her hands turned icy where they gripped the steering wheel.
Thankfully, she kept her badge and license in a pocket at her hip. Otherwise, she would have really been screwed.
Maybe she could flirt her way out. The thought flashed briefly across her mind until she realized that the officer was a woman, and a tough looking one at that.
"Do you know how fast you were driving? License and registration please."
She waited impatiently as Daisy pulled her license out of her pocket and May pulled the registration out of the glove box.
She took them both and disappeared a moment. May rested a hand on Daisy's where she still gripped the steering wheel.
"It'll be okay." She said quietly as the officer reappeared at the window.
"Ma'am, you were going 85 in a 60. I'm going to have to give you a ticket..."
The rest of her words were drowned out as Daisy's heart thumped louder and louder in her ears. She didn't realize the officer was even gone until May shook her lightly.
"Why don't I drive back?"
Daisy nodded haltingly, finally unfreezing, and they quickly switched sides. The car was silent as May began the drive back to base.
After a moment, Daisy looked over and noticed her SO was actually smiling, as though she was holding back her laughter.
"This isn't funny, May."
Melinda passed her a look. "It is kind of funny."
"Coulson's gonna kill me." Daisy sighed, resting her head back against the headrest dramatically.
"No he's not." She replied quietly. "It's not like it's the first time Lola has ever gotten a speeding ticket." She elaborated when Daisy's eyebrows shot up. "He was quite the show off at the Academy."
For a moment, Daisy didn't say anything. And then, a slow smile spread across her face. She felt it bubbling up in her chest...a desire to giggle at the whole situation.
She was laughing before May could even register the change, doubled over as her shoulders shook. By the time they reached the base, her stomach hurt.
Of course she, a SHIELD agent with alien abilities, who had seen other planets and met monsters, would be pulled over close to midnight and given a speeding ticket the first time she EVER got to drive Lola.
Would she have to appear in court? The thought ignited another giggle.
Melinda looked back at her, eyebrow raised, wondering if the girl was okay in the head.
But hey, at least she could find light in the fact that Lola was pulled over. Coulson would want to know what happened when she took out his car, and Melinda was reluctant to lie to him.
The thought must have also occurred to Daisy, because she paused in the hallway, realization dawning on her features.
"I am so screwed, aren't I?" She mumbled. "He's never gonna let me drive again."
"Probably not for a while at least." Melinda chuckled.
"Will you talk to him?" she pleaded.
"And say what?" Melinda asked incredulously. "You got the ticket, not me."
"I'm totally grounded." Daisy muttered to herself. Melinda shook her head and continued walking down the hallway.
"C'mon, May. Help me please." Daisy called after her SO, but the agent was having none of it. She placed her hands on her hips just as Coulson entered from the doors behind her, jacket slung over his arm.
"Oh I am so screwed." Daisy muttered to herself.
OoOoOoO
