I own nothing. Thanks for the comments. Enjoy.
"Well I think I've had enough excitement than I wanted this evening. I'm not as young as I used to be so I'll bid you guys goodnight." says Mrs. May getting ready to head upstairs
"I guess I'll be on my way as well. Thank you for having me Mrs. May. It's been an interesting night." says Doctor Garner
"Andrew you are staying the night. I won't have you driving out this late especially with what just happened."
"I'll be fine. I only live two hours away. All your rooms are already taken. I wouldn't want to impose."
"It wouldn't be an inconvenience if you stayed. I'll already have this bunch. You can have the pull out couch since Phillip is sleeping with Qiaolian." she says before walking upstairs not noticing the others stare between Coulson and May
"She didn't mean it like that. I mean I am sleeping with May just not in that sense. We're just sharing a bed. Skye this isn't funny. May help me out here." says Coulson looking around for May
"Where'd she go?" asks Coulson
"How does she do that?" asks Simmons
"This was fun. Think we can come up here for the holidays." says Skye laying in bed next to Simmons
"If we can take a break in saving the world. I wouldn't mind." says Bobbi from the other bed in the room
"Yeah. Just imagine how pretty everything will be when it snows. We could go ice skating." says Simmons
"Or fall straight through the ice." says Bobbi laughing along with Simmons
"Skye, where are you going? Don't crawl over me?" asks Simmons as Skye almost kicks her in the head and walks out of the room
Skye walks out of the room and notices that the attic is open. So naturally Skye decides to go and explore the attic especially since she's not breaking one of May's rules. Skye decides not to open up any of the boxes in the attic frankly because she's scared something may pop out and kill her. Skye instead moves on to the open window and walks onto the roof.
"Wow." says Skye as she looks up at the stars in the sky
"I know. Why aren't you asleep?" asks May
"I could ask you the same question." says Skye as she sits next to May on the roof
"Just thinking."
"About the old days."
"Sort of. I didn't tell you because I didn't want you making presumptions about Andrew just because of my previous relationship with him. I wanted him to help you and I wanted you to let him."
"I know."
"Don't you what to know what happened."
"Sort of but I don't want to pry."
"Its not prying if I tell you."
"Just give me a brief summary."
"We were young and we loved each other but maybe it just wasn't strong enough. Then I was broken, angry, and learned I couldn't be who I was anymore. So I pushed him away and he never pushed back."
Skye doesn't say anything after that and the two of them just sitting there looking at the stars. After Skye yawns, May decides it time for the two of them to go to bed.
"Come on. We have an early start tomorrow."
"You're not waking me up for training are you? We're on vacation May." says Skye as they go through the window
"Vacation? What makes you think we're on vacation?"
"Well I wouldn't call this a mission would you?" asks Skye as they exit the attic
"If this was a mission, I would have shot someone by now."
"Can you guys have this conversation somewhere else?" asks Coulson as he pokes his head out of May's room
"We're just finishing up Phil. God, it's not my fault you have a ritual before you go to bed."
"It's not a ritual. Oh, can I have the left side of the bed there was a lump on the right side. Was that a gun?"
"Either that or a grenade and I don't care what side you sleep on."
"Cool. I'll think move whatever it is on the night stand. Night Skye." says Coulson before he goes back into the room
"Ritual?" asks Skye
"Don't ask. Night Skye." answers May walking in after Coulson
"Would you ever consider getting married again?"
The only answer Skye gets is the door closing in her face.
"Even after a last night, you're still up at the crack of dawn." says Andrew to May as she does her tai-chi on the patio
"I forgot that you don't talk to anyone while you do this. You give Skye the morning off? You're getting soft Melinda."
"Soft. That word has never been used to describe May. You're lucky I couldn't sleep in." says Skye now joining May in routine
"Give my regards to your mother. I'll see you both soon." says Andrew to the pair of them before he walks back into the house.
As he goes to exit the kitchen he walks straight into Mrs. May
"Not saying goodbye Andrew." says Mrs. May as she walks into the kitchen and puts a teapot on the stove.
"I see waking up early is hereditary. I didn't want to disturb you Mrs. May. I have an early appointment to get to."
"Alright then. Keep in touch. We should do lunch sometime."
"Will do. I'll let you know when I get home."
"Thank you. Stay safe." says Mrs. May as she sees Doctor Garner out the door.
"Now where did they put the cars?" asks Doctor Garner as he walks out to an empty driveway
An interesting breakfast is coming up.
