A/N: This scene is a little shorter than I expected it to be, mainly because I'm leading it onto a longer one for next time. Hope you all like it!
Thank you to LJ717, Maddison1803 and icewitch for your reviews! They are much cherished :3 Reviews from anyone, please!
Also, if you want, you could leave suggestions as to what the group could do, and also what you think Bakshi's up to. :)
DISCLAIMER: I only own this story.
Grant looked over Skye's head at Kara, breaking the moment. Skye inwardly sighed and rolled over to look at the other woman as well, Grant arms slipping off easily.
Kara sat up and stretched, taking a few moments before noticing that she had an audience. "Did you guys get it on while I was asleep, or were you waiting for me to leave first?"
Skye and Grant looked at each other. "Ah…" Skye started, fumbling for words.
"Oh, relax. I'm teasing." Kara said with a laugh as she stood up. "What's the time?"
Grant rolled over onto his back, reaching awkwardly for the alarm clock next to the bed. "Just after 2 o'clock."
"Perfect. We can discuss where we're going to go when we leave tomorrow." Kara wandered to the kitchenette bench, picking up her phone and smiling as the screen showed.
"That depends on what else we're going to do." Grant said as he and Skye sat up, the former bending down to pick up his shoes.
Skye had noticed the involuntary smile that Kara had donned, and cocked her head to the side in curiosity. "Kara, why are you smiling like that?" her initial question caused Kara to look up, the smile still in place. Skye leaned forward almost eagerly. "Do you have a boyfriend?"
Grant let out a loud snort. "Ooh, gossip." He said sarcastically, not even bothering to look up from where he was tying his left shoe. Skye pouted at him, then gave him a push, sending him to the floor while he was still doubled over. Kara cracked up laughing and even Skye let out a little giggle, keeping her gaze on her former S.O. in case she had taken it too far. Both Kara and Grant had noticed, but decided not to comment on it as though it was some sort of abnormality.
"Thanks, Skye." He said, laughing as well. His eyes twinkled with delight at Skye's happiness, even if it was such a minor thing.
The relief in her eyes was palpable, and she gave him a small smile.
Kara was already getting used to falling into the third wheel category, and internally awwed at the scene in front of her. She looked back down at her phone, smirking again, and unlocked the screen. Immediately, a message came up, the phone buzzing with the Jingle Bells tune. Skye and Grant's heads snapped up, the former showing curiosity while the latter became very serious.
"Is that Bakshi?" he asked, reaching for his other shoe.
"Yeah." Kara replied, noticing Skye's look of confusion and wariness. "He says he's done the next task."
Grant paused, then nodded and finished tying his shoe. Standing up, he made his way over to her. "Tell him to move to the safe house." When Kara nodded and speed typed in her reply, Skye got up off the bed and tentatively took a few steps in their direction.
"What's going on?"
