Chapter Thirty Another Chance
"You wanted to see me?" Ward asked, as he walked into the room where Skye was.
He sat across from her on a chair. She was on a couch.
Skye sighed, embarrassed. "Yes. I......I don't exactly have an S.O. right now since May won't talk to me. So......."
"You need me?" Ward finished, a grin spreading across his face.
You could tell in his head a plan already started to form.
Skye sighed and looked down. "Yes."
Ward's eyes brightened up and his smile grew bigger. "Skye, remember the first time we started training together? That's what sparked a-"
"Yes or no?!" Skye yelled, cutting to the point.
"Of course!" Ward exclaimed, already trying to contain himself.
"Ok," Skye replied. "But there has to be some boundaries. No touching me unless you are teaching. No talking about our past."
"Yes ma'am," Ward said.
"And," Skye went on. "No looking at me like that."
"Like what?" Ward asked, as a small smirk went across his face.
"Like that!" Skye pointed.
"I'm not doing anything!" Ward exclaimed and looked at her.
"Yes you are you're giving me that stare! That really attractive, annoying stare!"
Ward grinned and started laughing.
Skye started blushing. "What?!"
"This is going to be fun," Ward said as he got up. "Come on. Let's go start now."
Skye sighed and followed him to the gym, already regretting what she just did.
"This is gonna be kind of hard," Ward said once they got there. "Pretending not to be in love with you."
Skye sighed and closed her eyes. "Alright, that's it. I'm done. I knew this was a bad idea. You know what? I'll go find Bobbi! Maybe she can be my S.O.!"
"Skye wait," Ward said and grabbed her arm.
She felt a tingly feeling shoot through her body. She tried to ignore it.
"Let go of me!" She said and kept walking.
"Come on Skye, just give me a second chance."
"I've given you a million already."
"Please?" Ward asked.
Skye looked at him. He gave her the look.
She sighed. "Alright, fine."
She walked back over to him and sighed.
"What's first?" She asked.
"Well first," Ward replied. "I want to wake up some old traditions."
He grabbed her arm and flipped her over onto her stomach. She winced in pain.
"Remember that one?" Ward said as he started laughing. "We used to do it all the time to each other when we trained together........."
His voice trailed off as he realized Skye was seriously hurting. She was holding her stomach and trying to hide her pain but it wasn't working. He kneeled down next to her.
"What's wrong? It can't hurt that much, we used to do it on each other all the time for fun!"
"It's not that," Skye groaned and got up.
She looked at him before slowly lifting up her shirt to show the huge bruise spread out across her stomach.
Ward gasped. "Did I do that?!"
Skye sighed. Idiot. "Of course not! May did. It was her response to when I asked her to be my S.O. again."
"May did this?!" Ward growled angrily.
"Yes," Skye replied.
Then she looked at how distracted Ward was.
"And speaking of old traditions," Skye grabbed Ward's hand and flipped him onto his back.
He started laughing and sighed. This sure isn't the old Skye I used to train. Skye pulled him back up onto his feet.
"Awwwww!" Coulson squealed as he watched them from his hidden cameras. "They're so cute!"
After about two hours they finally stopped and checked the time.
"It's been two hours already!" Skye exclaimed.
"Yeah time flys when you're around people you-"
Skye glared at him.
"Are training with," Ward finished. Totally saved it.
Skye sighed. "I should go."
She began to walk away.
"Hey Skye!" Ward called and ran after her.
He sighed. "I know you're gonna hate me for this but..... When do you think you're going to be ready?"
Skye glared at him. "Ward-"
"Skye please you have to get over it at some point!" Ward pleaded. "We were in love! Deeply in love! We were getting married! How can you just ignore that!"
"Because I'm traumatized!" Skye yelled, losing it. "That robot almost killed me, and at the time I thought that robot was you!"
Then she looked down, catching her breath. "I can't do this."
She stormed away.
"Skye wait!" Ward yelled and grabbed her hand.
"Let go of me!" Skye yelled and flung her hand back, sending out a seismic wave.
It made Ward go soaring back and crash into some bins. He groaned slightly before not moving.
"Ward?" Skye asked nervously. "Ward!"
She ran over to see Ward lying on the floor, not moving.
DID I JUST KILL HIM?! WHAT IF HE'S UNCONSCIOUS?!
"Ward!" Skye yelled and kneeled next to him.
He started laughing and opened his eyes.
"So you do still care about me."
Skye punched him in the side.
"Ow!"
"That wasn't funny!" She yelled.
They both looked at each other for a long time. A small grin came across Ward's face and he started laughing. Skye tried to hide her smirk but her laughter soon came out. They both started laughing hysterically.
"What are we doing?!" Ward asked after a while.
"I don't know," Skye replied and looked down.
They stared into each other's eyes; and for a second, Ward thought he saw the old Skye back again.
"I have to go," Skye said and got up to leave.
This time, Ward didn't stop her. She rounded the corner and left.
Ward stayed there, laying down. I'll get her. I'm on a mission. And there's no stopping me.
