Chapter 2
Skye's POV
After finishing a game of scrabble which had been interrupted by Fitz coming in with cream all over his face trying to find out who had pulled the prank on him. He had spent over ten minutes trying to get someone to confess but he had no Luck. I was just about to head to the showers when Simmons came into my bunk without knocking.
"Okay the first few times you did that I let it slide because you almost died and you jumped out of a plane but you seriously have to start knocking." I snapped starting to get annoyed at her just walking in to my room.
"Sorry" she said sitting down on my bed with her serious thinking face on. "so I was thinking about your parents situation and I think I might have an idea" she said looking up at me with a smile.
"I told you, you don't need to help with that but…whats your idea" I say because although I don't want her to get in to trouble for me, after all these years of searching I was beginning to get tired of hitting dead ends.
"well it would involve a bool.."
"no" I interrupted "I don't do needles" I say and she gets an amused look on her face.
"YOU Skye are scared of needles" she laughs before getting all serious again "before you
say no would you at least listen to the idea" I nod telling her to continue. "okay so I was thinking that we could run your DNA through the system and look for a match"
"Isn't that a little easy" I say unconvinced that it will work "I mean don't you need to directly compare two sets of DNA to find a match"
"Skye this is S.H.E.I.L.D" she says "we have an 1962 Chevrolet Corvette down stairs that can fly" she says like I just asked a stupid with I guess is possible since she is a genius.
"Okay, fine why not give it a try" I say not getting my hopes up that it will work.
Down in the lab Fitz was refusing to leave so that we could do the test and Simmons and I were beginning to get annoyed. He was insisting that we tell him what we were up to. Having enough I jump down from my seat "Fitz do you really want to know what we are doing?" I glare at him but he still nods "fine, if you must know Simmons is taking a blood sample to see if I'm pregnant. Are you happy now?" I tell him wishing I had a camera with me so that I wouldn't forget the look on his face in that moment.
"You….your…but" he stutters his eyes going from my face to my stomach and back before he bolts out of the room. As soon as he's gone Simmons and I burst out laughing and it takes us a good five minutes before we can breath normally again.
"That was hilarious" Simmons says "but, you are probably going to regret using that as an excuse" she says but before I can say anything else she has taken out the needles and I can't focus on anything but them. "wow okay, going by how pale you have gotten, you really are scared of needles" she says making me sit down before I faint. "Are you sure you want to do this" she asks. I only nod because I can no longer trust my voice.
After Simmons had gotten me to calm down enough she was able to take the blood sample and had started to do some sciencey stuff to it that I didn't even try to understand. Finally after running around the Lab she sat down next to me and told me that all we had to do was wait for the results.
A few hours later we were still arguing over the ending to Gilmore Girls. When the computer made a noise telling us that the results were ready. Getting up we walked up to the computer but neither of us knew what to say after seeing the results.
May's POV
After finishing my Tai chi session I was heading back to the cockpit when I heard Ward and Fitz arguing about something Skye had told Fitz down in the lab. Curious to see what could get Ward so upset I went down to the lab to see what was going on. Walking in I found Skye and Simmons staring at one of the computer in front of them both of them seemed shocked at what they were looking at but, Skye also seemed a little upset. It took awhile for them to notice me walking towards them but when they did Skye reached out and turned of the monitor before I could see what was on it. "What's going on?" I asked confused about why someone that hated secrets so much was hiding something especially after what happened with Miles recently.
"Nothing" Simmons attempted to lie but he really was terrible at it. Skye just stared at me with an emotion that I couldn't identify. I reached out to turn on the monitor and Skye tried to stop me but, after giving her a glare she backed up and stared at the ground. It took a few times for the information I was reading to sink in but, before I could fully process it Ward come bursting in to the room.
"Is it true?" he yelled and it it took a second for me to realize who the question was being directed to. I turned back off the monitor as he came stamping over to stand in front of Skye.
"Is what true?" she asked with a hint of fear in her voice which Ward picked up on.
"Are you pregnant?" he asked in a slightly softer tone.
"Who's pregnant?" Coulson interrupted before Skye to answer which annoyed me because I really wanted to know if it was true.
"Skye is" Fitz says standing behind Ward trying to hide from the death glare both Skye and Simmons were giving him. Everyone's attention was back on Skye as she tried to get the right words to come out of her mouth.
"Skye's…..I'm…no…I'm not pregnant"she finally gets out looking both nervous and embarrassment neither of which were emotions I had seen in her before.
"Then why did you tell me you were" Fitz asked in an accusing tone.
"She didn't, she told you I was checking to see if she was pregnant. Which was a lie to get you to leave us alone" Simmons answered for Skye looking annoyed at her other half.
"oh" was all he said before rushing out of the room to avoid the looks he was now getting from everyone on the team. After Ward and Coulson left I turned needing to talk to Skye about what she had found out and attempt to give her an explanation. My eyes scanned the room but, she wasn't there she must have left when everyones attention was on Fitz.
"She just needs some time" Simmons said in a sympathetic voice. I just walked out of the room not saying anything. The only thing I could think about was that Skye was my daughter.
