Previously on 'Our Family'

"Mel, Skye is May," his voice came out weaker than he expected. "She's our little girl. We have been looking for her for the past 25 years and she has been with us for the past 6 months. We finally found our baby."

One Hour Later

Phil and Melinda looked down at the young girl who had fallen asleep on their laps. After Skye had run across the room and into the arms of her new found parents, she had asked them if they had any stories about her, before she disappeared. As soon as she asked that, Phil had started reminiscing over the days that his wife was pregnant. Skye had listened intently, and neither of the two had noticed when Skye had laid down and fell asleep on their laps.

The two looked down at her with content smiles on their faces. They had never imagined that after 25 years of looking that they would find their daughter. They finally decided that they would wake Skye up, because they wanted to tell the team on their own and not have them find out when they simply walked into the living room.

"Baby girl, wake up. Skye," Melinda said as she pushed a piece of hair out of Skye's face.

Skye opened her eyes and said with a smile, "I've got to get used to you guys calling me that."

"Yeah you do, because we aren't going anywhere anytime soon. We just got you back." Phil told his daughter.

"What?"

The three of them all turned to see Katlyn with a look of pure shock written on her face.

"Kate, we need to tell you –"

"What do you mean you just got her back? How could you not tell me? Instead, you sit here as a family not even thinking that maybe I would want to be here too?" Kate ran out of the room.

Melinda immediately stood up to run to her daughter when Skye said, "Let me."

Skye ran after Katlyn to find her waiting for the elevator.

"Just leave me alone. I don't want to talk to you or my parents right now."

"Okay, then don't talk. Just listen. I just found out an hour ago. I walked into the living room, just like you had and heard May and AC talking. AC had said something about how they had finally found their baby girl and that I was May. May immediately freaked out and I ran in and hugged them. We talked and then I had asked if they had any stories of me while May was pregnant or when I was a baby. AC started talking and I fell asleep. I had just woken up when you had come in. We had just found out. You can be mad at me if you'd like, but don't be mad at your parents please."

Kate continued to give Skye the silent treatment, until she finally left. As soon as she was sure Skye was gone, Katlyn cried. The entire time, she had just wanted to hug her sister and say she missed her, but she was upset. She wanted to find out as soon as possible. She knew she needed to talk to her parents, but she also just wanted time to think.

Kate finally took the elevator up to the roof and sat on the helicopter pad and stared at the city. It somehow brought a sense of peace and allowed her to think things through. She heard the elevator ding and then its doors opening up; she knew it was most likely her mom or dad. She was surprised when Bruce came and sat next to her instead. They sat like that in silence until Bruce finally spoke up.

"What's up little duck?" He had called her that since she was little, because she used to be as obsessed with ducks as Fitz was with monkeys.

"Skye's my sister and I don't know how I feel about it."

"That's big news," Bruce voiced shocked at the news. "What are you feeling?"

"I'm happy about finally finding her and knowing that she was never killed, but I'm upset with mom and dad. I know that they had just found out and that Skye had found out the same way I did, but I'm still upset and I don't know why."

"Anything else?"

"I'm angry… angry at the people who took Skye away from my mom and dad. They took my big sister away from me. I'd never met her, but I've always loved her, always wished that she was with us. Now she's here, and I'm angry and won't talk to her or mom and dad." Kate took a breath and looked to her uncle for advice.

"I get it kid. You don't understand. You don't have anyone to blame for taking your sister away from you, so you're blaming her and your parents. But, Kate, you have got to let it go. It wasn't their fault. It's the people who took her. It's their fault. And don't think that I don't know the other thing you're thinking about. You're blaming yourself. Why? I don't know," he shrugged and carried on, "You weren't even a thought yet, so stop. What did you know when she was taken away? Take a minute to breath, then go in there, hug your sister, and never let go. Okay?"

Kate nodded and gave her uncle a hug. He returned it and then left Katlyn alone again, to think.

Kate was left in sitting on the roof in silence. She knew her uncle was right and just wished she would get the courage to run in there. She was just scared.

A couple minutes later the elevator dinged again. Kate turned her head to find Ward with a sad look on his face.

"Sorry, I didn't know you were up here. I'll go somewhere else-"

"No," Katlyn spoke hurriedly, "I mean, the roof is big enough for the both of us."

Ward gave her a slight grin and sat down beside her. They sat in silence until Kate spoke up.

She looked to Ward expectantly, "So, what's wrong with you?"

"No offence, but I don't really talk about my feelings to anyone. But, what's wrong with you?"

"I'll tell you what, you tell me, I tell you."

At that moment, Ward let out a small laugh. "You've been spending way too much time with Skye. But alright, deal. Just because I know that it might be good if I tell someone. You have to promise to not tell anyone though. Got it?"

All Kate did was hold out her pinky with a smile on her face. Ward took it and chuckled.

"Okay Ward, you first. What's up?"

"I like someone. Like, really like someone, and I don't know how to tell her how I feel."

"It's Skye, isn't it?" Kate asked.

"How - How did you know?"

"It's so obvious. It's in the way you look at her. You look at her, like she is the only girl in the world. The only one that matters anyway. You always have a sparkle in your eyes. You look at her the way my dad looks at my mom. The way Uncle Clint looks at Aunt Nat. Or the way Uncle Tony looks at Aunt Pepper. It's the same way with Aunt Maria and Uncle Steve, as well as Thor and Aunt Jane. You train her, not because you have to, but because you want to protect her. And you would never forgive yourself if she ever got hurt."

Ward looked at her with pure sadness in his eyes and nodded, knowing she was right.

"I don't just like her. I think I am falling in love with her. It won't stop. How do I tell her? What is she doesn't feel the same way? I can't lose her. She might not know it, but she's my best friend."

"You just do. Tell her how you feel. It's better to tell her, than to always wonder if she feels the same way. And for what it's worth, I think the outcome… would be in your favor." Kate smiled and then continued.

"But, I'm going to warn you now. If you ever, ever, hurt my sister, then I will hurt you. I can assure you of that. I have the Avengers and my parents and the Director and Deputy Director to help me. I also guarantee that Fitzsimmons would help." Katlyn finished with a devious grin and stood up.

"Okay, I won't hurt her! And what do you mean by your sister? I didn't think that you guys were that close," Ward looked at her confused.

"That's what I was upset about. It turns out that Skye is May, my big sister who was kidnapped from my parents before I was even born."

With that said Kate turned around and walked to the elevator, leaving a very confused Ward behind her. She told JARVIS to take her down to the living room. She needed to go hug her sister and never let go.

A/N: Thank you all for your continued support throughout the story so far. This chapter was a hard one to think of, but once I started writing I couldn't stop. Again, if anyone has a story of their own that they would like me to read, I would be happy too. But, only ones that are AoS. And I have also become a Beta Reader, so feel free to hire me. :) Thanks Again!
