A/N: Hey guys! In this chapter, y'all might wonder why Natasha and Clint are here...they have a minor role in this story, probably in it for a chapter or two. I figured since they're apart of SHIELD, they should have some part in this. Feel free to give constructive criticism! Although, don't put anything like, "you jump back and forth in this story like a monkey with epilepsy and ADHD playing leap frog!" I've actually gotten a review like that before -_- anywho, enjoy!
After everyone had gotten back onto the plane, it took another hour to convince Skye to take her pain killers. They could see why she was reluctant, she didn't want to take anything that could potentially hurt the baby.
In the end, it was Agent Ward that managed to persuade her.
Skye sat on the couch as they landed to refuel, watching as Coulson left the air craft to speak to a couple who appeared to be in their late twenties. The woman had short, curly bright red hair and was wearing a dark, navy blue shirt with guns in the holsters attached securely to her light blue jeans, she appeared to be pregnant from the looks of it. The man had dark blonde hair that almost looked brown to Skye, wearing loose black jeans and a black t-shirt that appeared to be tight on him. With the couple, stood a little girl with pale blonde hair and a fair complexion of about four or five-years-old.
"Hey, Grant? Is that Agent Romanoff and Agent Barton?" She asked, nodding her head towards the window and motioning for Grant to join her.
"Yeah, I think they have to go to Romania with Agent Hill to solve some...problems." He explained.
Skye looked confused.
"But isn't she pregnant from what Coulson told us when we got on the plane back in Argentina? Like six months along or something?"
"Yeah, but she's just like you. Stubborn, but, un like you, she scares everyone. It's not a dangerous mission. She's also a highly skilled assassin, so it's alright."
"What's the misson?" She asked, briefly looking away from the window.
"That's classified."
Meanwhile, Coulson walked along the airfield with Natasha and Clint as the little girl sat down, waiting for them to finish their conversation.
"So, it's just like my case from Russia when I first came?" Natasha asked, looking at the other Agent.
Coulson nodded.
"Precisely. Except HYDRA doesn't turn children into assassins...what is the favor that you need?" He asked, abruptly changing the subject.
"Nat and I need you and your team to watch Lilith for a couple weeks at the least while we head to Romania for a mission with Maria." Clint explained.
"And the rest of your team can't watch her? Stark or Rogers? Banner? Pepper?"
"Well, the rest of the team has to go and deal with some problems in Israel, they'll be gone for a month. Besides, Pepper can't do it because she's busy with work and taking care of Jason, and Betty and Jane? They're mostly in the lab, and they don't want Lili to distract them."
Coulson sighed, about to respond when he felt some tugging on his pants; looking down, he saw Lili's big blue eyes looking up at him.
"Please Uncle Phil? I never see you, and when I do, it's for a day. Can I stay? You won't know i'm here?" She begged.
Coulson sighed once more.
"How can I say no to my favorite niece?"
Skye and Ward watched the exchange with interest, especially when Coulson picked up the little girl and brought her onto the plane.
"Who's the kid?" Grant asked, eyeing the blonde headed child wearily as she gave an innocent smile.
"Lilith Barton. Agent Barton and Agent Romanoff adopted her about a year ago. She turned five in January." He said, putting her on the couch beside Grant.
"Since when are we babysitters?" Agent May asked, crossing her arms in front of her.
"Since now. We're only watching her for a couple weeks...at least. You'll hardly know she's here."
"Do you really think it's wise for her to come on missions with us?"
"She'll be safe. She'll either be staying on the plane or in the van with Skye...and yes, Skye, you're officially out of the field unless we absolutely need you." Coulson explained, seeing the confused look on Skye's face, "I hardly see Lili enough as it is."
Agent May sighed and returned to the cockpit as Fitz and Simmons came in, their hearts nearly melting at the sight of the child.
"Awe, isn't she a cutie, huh Simmons?" Fitz said, watching as Lili hid behind Coulson.
"What's your name?" Jemma asked, looking at the small child.
"Lilith, these are Leo Fitz and Jemma Simmons, two of our best scientists. The one you saw a minute ago was Agent Melinda May. And Those two over there are Skye and Agent Grant Ward. They're also expecting a baby." He said, allowing for the little girl to release her grip from his waist and look at Skye and Ward curiously.
"Really? I'm getting a baby sister. What about you?" She asked Skye.
Skye smiled at the inquisitive little girl.
"We don't know yet, but we will soon."
Lili nodded her head as Fitz and Simmons offered to give her a tour, which she shyly accepted and skipped down the hall of the aircraft with them.
That kid will go places when she's older...
A/N: Guest: Yes, I am eager for Skye to be pregnant, lol. I have a problem where there's almost always a pregnant character in my story! I can't really control it for some reason, it's just how my writing style works with me. XD
Let me know what y'all think! Please review :)
