Disclaimer: Wish I owned SHIELD!

Day 67:

After the new surprise development in our relationship, I haven't been able to sleep much at night. After getting a taste of Leo's lips, it makes me want to taste them again, and again and again. I daydream of him kissing me, and I dream of him banging on my bunk door in the middle of the night, marching in, and kissing me passionately.

It's bad. I can see in his eyes that he wants to kiss me too. But he respects my wishes and instead, holds my hand.

Skye was the first to notice.

When we were sitting down for dinner, Leo reached under the table to lace our fingers together. Eventually after a few minutes, Skye realized and responded with an "OH MY GOSH GUYS."

She watches us like a hawk now. I'm not really sure what she expects to find, but it's hilarious anyways.

Day 68:

Wow, that boy makes me feel things.

Things I've never felt before.

This is new.

Day 69:

Today Skye had another brilliant idea and put the Notebook on while Leo and I were sitting in the living room. Not only did it make me want to press him back into the pillows and kiss him for the rest of the evening, but it made him sad that he couldn't remember more.

I know Skye means well—-it just hurts is all.

Day 70:

Since Leo is doing better, Coulson has started some work again today. We had all taken a long break while Leo was recovering (much needed with all the Hydra stuff that had been going on), and now Coulson is searching the globe for SHIELD people he trusts. Since Fury made him the new director, he's been taking his role seriously, going through hundreds of case and personal files. He want to starts SHIELD up again, but in a different way. Not sure what he means, but we all trust him to no end.

Day 71:

Today Skye, May, Tripp and Coulson left the BUS to do some footwork. Nothing serious, but they wanted to do some spying on a potential candidate for the new SHIELD, but wanted to make sure we could trust him. AKA, they wanted to make sure he's not Hydra. They left me and Leo on the BUS in complete lockdown, so no one could get in.

I had my head buried in amnesia research, looking for any possible tidbit of information to help Leo with his memories, when slow music wafted in the room. I looked up from my papers, and Leo was standing in front of me, hand extended, with a goofy grin on his face.

"Dance with me?"

I remember my cheeks getting hot, I'm sure they were very red. I let him help me up off the couch and he pulled me close, one hand on my waist, the other holding my hand. We slowly swayed on the spot, and I rested my head against his. It was by-far, the most peace I had felt in a long time. Even though the Leo in front of me is a different man than the one before amnesia, he is still my Leo nonetheless.

And I love him with all my heart.

"Did we used to dance like this before?" he asked quietly in my ear. His breath tickled my ear, and shivers ran down my spine.

"No…this is the first time." I said, hoping he wouldn't ask for too much more. Our relationship beforehand had been complicated, and I didn't want it to complicate this even more than it already was. I was enjoying this new change.

I think he could sense my hesitation, because he didn't press.

"Well, expect it to happen from now on."

I smiled into the crook of his neck and held onto him tighter. My this boy was sure becoming the romantic.

Day 72:

Skye came to talk to me today. She wanted to know what was up with me and Leo.

"So, are you guys like together?"

I nodded, but then shook my head.

"Well, technically in our minds we are, but we're not taking any new steps till Leo remembers more."

"Seriously Jemma, you love him, he loves you, end of story."

"I know Skye, believe me, I know. I just want to do this right."

She just shook her head and grinned. "You two are the definition of soul mates"

I couldn't help but blush when I heard that.

"You're also the definition of stubborn."

"Thanks Skye."

Day 73:

Skye is just doing absolutely everything she can to make things awkward for me and Leo!

Today we were in the lab working on some new prototypes and were bouncing some ideas off one another, when Leo stopped suddenly and looked at me.

"You're bloody brilliant, you know that, right?"

"Well, so are you."

"I want to kiss you right now."

"I want to kiss you too."

Skye chose that particular moment to walk into the lab.

"OH LA LA, shall I leave you guys alone and disconnect the cameras?"

Leo turned a deep shade of red and went back to work. He couldn't look at me for a couple hours. Or was it me that couldn't look?

Day 74:

"I know you want to hold off on things for a bit." Leo said suddenly one afternoon. "But—how would you feel about a date night? We can keep it light. Even here on the BUS. I just thought you and me. Just the two of us."

Of course I want to have a date with Leo. Even though he hasn't progressed a ton and he's not any closer to remembering everything, I can't help but say yes.

"Great!" he exclaimed with a clap. "Tomorrow night, it's a date."

Day 75:

As promised, it was just the two of us. I'm not sure what Leo said to everyone else, but around 7pm, they all disappeared, with Skye making some bad joke about not wanting to see anything.

Leo made me dinner, sandwiches he said.

"I remembered something." he said, a smile stretching across his face.

"What?" I asked, jumping up.

"Three words," he said, "homemade pesto aioli. I can't make it as good as you, but I wanted to try." he said, as he set down the plate in front of me.

I looked down at the sandwich Leo attempted to make, in awe. He remembered. He actually remembered. It was squashed in certain areas, with prosciutto hanging out the ends, and the buffalo mozzarella was cut messily. The man made brilliant feats in engineering every day, and could make any electrical device with his bare hands, but a sandwich proved difficult for him. It only made the gesture even more special.

"It's perfect"

We ate the sandwiches, which were delicious I might add, in relative silence, with longing stares, and I hugged him tightly afterwards. His simple gesture meant so much to me, that I wish I had the words to express it to him.

"The evening isn't over. I have something else planned."

We sat in the living room, and he pulled out a movie, 'The Princess Bride.'

"Oh my gosh, my favourite!" I exclaimed

"I know", he said with a smile, "I remembered", and tears came to my eyes.

I kissed his cheek and he gripped my waist as I did. Oh how I wanted to kiss more.

Day 76:

I keep remembering our date last night. During the movie, I got a bit cold, so he grabbed a blanket and we snuggled underneath it. I was fine with that., in fact I enjoyed that. It was what he did afterwards.

I'm not sure if he even realized what he was doing. Our fingers were interlaced, and he slowly pulled his away, and began tracing the lines on my palm with his fingers, over and over again.

Who knew hand-holding could be so sensual? Leo is slowly unraveling me, and heating me to the core. I don't know if I can take it much longer.

I could barely pay attention to the movie while he was doing that. I just remember becoming very warm, and becoming very aware of just how close we were sitting. I purposely did not look at him for the rest of the movie, for the sake of not wanting losing control.

One day. I can lose control with him one day. That day will eventually come.

When the movie finished, he walked me to the door of my bunk, and raised my hand to his lips and kissed the top of it slowly.

"Goodnight Jemma."

I'm pretty sure my mouth was hanging open at this point, but I reclaimed enough strength to say goodnight and thank him for such a great evening. Then, I kissed him on the cheek slowly, breathing him in.

"I'm so glad you're coming back to me."

We both smiled like goofy idiots.

All the feels!
