Disclaimer: I do not own Skye, Phil Coulson, Melinda May, Grant Ward, or FitzSimmons. I only own the variation I have created off of this very popular idea.
I firstly must thank Neeeeeal who, as the author of Turn Back Time, has done such a very interesting and lovely job on their story I wanted to give my attempt of it a go.
However, because I cannot find B.J. Britt's wiki page or his age, I'm going with Ward. But that's not the only reason. It's because with the Hydra plot, I see no room or logical way for this story to make sense. So... It's AUish. Ward isn't hydra. Yay! Because I really did love Ward.
Warning, MAY include Avengers. I upped the rating for my own comfort.
The sound of the door falling off it's hinges drew Phil's attention from his grief. Standing in the doorway was Thor, smiling innocently as if he didn't break the door down. Standing behind him was the ever smug Clint Barton again, holding back his laughter. Just as Phil took in the sight, Leo and Jemma ran past him towards Thor, their favorite babysitter.
"UNCLE THOR!"
Uncle? When did they call him Uncle? He's only been around twice? But, nonetheless, Thor bent down and scooped them up in a hug. He gave a charismatic smile, entering the house, with Barton behind him. He lifted the door, resting it along the wall so no one would be suspicious unless they approached the house.
"Mel, I think our babysitters are here!" Phil called, eyes shifting back and forth between Clint and Thor. Of course, instead of May answering him from the stairs, it was a child's scream.
All eyes turned as May dragged two suitcases down the stairs, while also trying to pry Skye off her leg. The small child was rather stubborn and determine, pressing her face into May's calf.
"Skye, you need to let go. Phil and I will be back in nine days."
"NO!" Skye screamed, grabbing onto May tightly, silently crying. Skye gripped May's leg, all while May and Coulson go to pry her off.
"Skye, Skye honey, you need to let go of Mel's leg." Of course, Skye let go and attached herself to Phil. Coulson sighed, while Grant quietly stood to the side with Barton.
"I don't want you to go!" Skye whined, crying.
"Skye, you're gonna be with Uncle Thor, and Uncle Clint-"
"And Uncle Tony!" Clint adds.
'Tony? Are you joking?' Coulson thinks, before redressing the situation, "You were ok when Uncle Thor baby sat."
"But that was one night! This is nine nights! And days!" Skye's bottom lip stuck out and wobbled like Leo's. She sniffled, "Take us with you!"
"Skye, we can't, you know that. It's- grown up business. I promise, the Avengers are gonna take good care of you. We have to go, we'll miss our flight."
Coulson then effortlessly removed Skye from his person, handing her to Barton before he kissed the four year old gently on the head, "I'll call you kids the minute we land!" He says, turning to Jemma and Leo to hug them goodbye and give them a kiss while May hugged Grant and whispered reassuring words in his ear. Skye cried, kicking and hitting Clint as she cried for Coulson and May, watching them disappear outside and Thor gently rested the door back in it's normal, closed position.
Coulson didn't think this would be possible, but seeing Tony's smug face as he stood in the driveway was a step up from Skye's screaming and crying. He would prefer this than the heartbroken child.
Tony was leaned against a tarp covered car, his smug expression didn't completely reach his eyes. He got off the car and tore the tarp away, revealing a cherry red Corvette, Lola. Coulson stared, totally shocked as he got closer and ran a hand across the surface of it. Before he could even question how Stark got his hands on his Lola, Tony moved away a bit, smiling.
"Figured maybe, I don't know, it might take your mind off her. I am sorry Agent."
Coulson looked at Tony, nodding sullenly, trying to find the right words to say as May put their luggage away. Tony smiled, "Don't worry Agent, we'll take good care of those kids."
With that said, he tossed Coulson the keys and turned to head to the house. Coulson, turned towards the car and goes into the driver seat. He takes a seat, turns the engine on just as May climbs in and slowly pulls out of the driveway, the sound and feel of Lola's engines distracting him from Skye and Audrey.
When Tony walked into the house, the only thing he heard was Skye screaming and crying. The moment he entered, about to ask what was wrong, Clint handed him the crying child before going to fix the door. Tony looked at Skye, then at Clint.
"Um... What am I suppose to do Legolas?"
"Distract her," Clint says, while Skye hit at Tony's arms. Tony had to hold her away from his chest so she wouldn't hit his arc reactor.
"um.. Skye? Will you please stop crying?" Tony asked as Grant played with his Zoomer Dino, Jemma and Leo riding on Thor's back like he was a horse. When Skye didn't stop, he got a devious idea, "Skye, Skye I got a new prank idea that I need your help with."
That got her attention, "What kind of prank?"
"A childish prank."
"I'm listening."
Who's the prank towards? Pepper, Natasha, Hill, or Fury? Or anyone else I don't know or listed like Bruce! :D Just trust me, it's childish but hopefully it will be amusing.
Hope you enjoy this chapter!
