This and tomorrow are a two part thing. Today works out tomorrow-wow that's confusing. Hopefully you guys understand that.
Enjoy!
Mad
"Skye, you just need to calm down," Simmons told her as she continued to pace back and forth frantically. "I'm sure they're fine."
"How would you know!" Skye snapped. "The line was cut off. Something bad might have happened to them?"
Her father had gotten a call for a new mission a few days ago. Originally, it had just been May and another agent, Trip. Then Leo was added to the roster, because they needed his help with identifying some weapons that had been disappearing recently or something like that. Apparently, they were similar to something he once built. Skye had already been worrying enough about her mother, since the region was a turbulent military zone. Throwing Leo into the mix made her fears worse. Her dad had told her that it was going to go smoothly, but it did little to alleviate her worries.
Up until now, Skye had been fine at managing her concerns, and always was present for every scheduled call-in they'd made in the past two days. But three hours ago, the call was cut as soon as May had finished giving the response code. Skye wanted to try to call back, but both her father and Ward vetoed the idea. It was unsafe, they told her, because an unexpected call could jeopardize them. It was like Ward and Leo's mission all over again, the familiar spiral of concern that she was going down. At least they were on the Bus, and Ward was sticking with Simmons, and also a bit with her. Mainly for Simmons though.
"What if something really bad happened to them?"
"Skye," Ward warned, giving her a stern look. "You need to stop worrying about this. May and Trip are both capable agents. They can keep each other and Fitz safe."
"STOP WORRYING!" Skye bolted out of the chair she'd sat down in a moment ago and marched over to her SO. "Look her, T-1000, I know that you're Mr. Everything-is-going-to-work-out, and you know what, that's fine. But it's been three hours, and they haven't called in. My mother is out there, and so is Leo, and Trip too! What is something's gone wrong? What then? Tell me, Ward. What. Then."
"Skye, stop," Simmons placed a hand on her shoulder. "I know you're upset about Fitz, and I get that you're mad, but don't take it out on Grant. Just tell me why you're afraid of something bad happening to them."
Skye's shoulders slumped as the biochemist's words hit her. She looked at Simmons.
"I don't want to lose him," she admitted, wrapping her arms tightly around herself. "I can't lose him."
Please review! It'll be resolved tomorrow!
