"Are you sure you will be alright without me?"

"Yes! Now go away! You're being far to annoying!"

He smiles at the eyeroll coming from his sister, the answer to his question makes him shake his head. He knew she was feeling a lot better now, but he couldn't shake the feeling that she would end up falling into the dark once more. He had however told Maria what she could do if it were to happen once more and neither he nor May couldn't get here fast enough.

This time around they had been in luck, next time they might just be on a mission already when the phone rings. That's something he didn't want to think about, the only thing he could focus on is the fact that she's safe where she is. And if anything, this group have proven that they will do anything to make Skye smile once more.

"Oh, come on, you love me!"

He jokes, knocking his should into hers. Hearing Skye laugh lightly, he gets showed to the side and he accept his defeat for now. Hearing footsteps in the hallway, the two of them turns their attention to the door just as May steps into view.

"Are you ready to head back?"

"According to this one I am."

He answered, pointing towards Skye who replies with showing him in the back for good measure. Seeing how May shakes her head, Leo knows it's about time to cut things short and let her drive the two of them back to the base once more. Turning around, Leo holds out his arms, knowing he doesn't have to take a step forward. With a smile, Skye steps into the hug herself.

"Call me, no matter what it's about or what time it is!"

He tells her in a low voice, making sure to tighten his hug. Feeling how Skye tighten the hug on her end, he takes that answer as a yes. Releasing her, he takes a step back, only for May to take his place. The first time he had seen the older Agent show this level of affection it had surprised him a lot. Now it was just as normal as the fact that he is close friend with the Avengers. Two things that is well kept secrets.

Seeing May and Skye break up the hug and May placing her hand on his shoulder, he nods his as a final goodbye to Skye before being lead down the hallway. Everything was going smooth until they reached the parking lot where they got stopped by Tony.

"Do you really have to leave right now? I need your input on one of my new designs."

Blinking a few times, Leo tries to figure out what is going on. He had not expected something like this to happen, the fact that the Tony Stark needs his help, that was completely crazy. Glancing towards May, he can see that even she is surprised over what just happened, he can also see the stress deep within her eyes.

"Hand me the papers and I'll look them over at the base and I will call you with what I think?"

This was the best way for now, because he would be crazy if he passed up the opportunity to help the Tony Stark. Seeing how the avenger smile, Leo takes it that he had made his day.

"Stay right here and I'll get everything on a flash drive. JARVIS, start the downloading progress!"

And with a flash, the billionaire was gone from sight. Shaking her head, May leaves his side and heads for the car, loading it up with their bags. Leo stayed put, letting his mind wander what project Tony wants his help with. After a few minutes of waiting, the man shows up in front of him once more, a large smile as he holds up a flash drive.

"Everything is on here! Make sure to give me a call as soon as you have gone through it!"

Tony tells him before heading off once more. Shaking his head, Leo heads for the car, seeing how May turns her head to look at him. As her eye's lands on the flash drive, he could already hear what she's about to say.

"Don't worry, I will look into it when I'm alone and no one else is around."

He says before May has a chance, seeing the tiny smile Leo enters the car. The drive back to the base is a silent one, not that he would have expected something else. They were both tired and had a lot to go over by themselves before they could talk it out. And Leo couldn't help but let his mind wander off to what Tony had put on the flash drive. As they got closer to the base, he had made his decision.

As May turn of the car, Leo was out of it, grabbing hold of his bag he heads directly for his room.

"Fitz!"

Hearing Simmon's voice, he comes to a stop, however. Turning around, he sees her and the rest of the team siting in the common room. They all looked at him with surprised and he couldn't really blame them. He had disappeared without giving a proper explanation and now he shows up only to run past them all.

"Sorry! No time for talking!"

He tells them before heading for his room once more, he could talk to them all later. Entering his room, he drops the bag only to reach for his computer. As he waited for it to start, he finds himself twirling the flash drive. The moment the computer has started, he enters the flash drive, only to be meet with security lock. Letting out a deep sigh, he starts to work his way through it, he should have known Tony would have put something like this on it.

10 minutes later he's past it and he smile. A smile that disappears as he opens the files, feeling how his eyes grow large at the sight in front of him, he reaches for his phone. Going through his contacts, he finds the number in question and makes the call. He didn't have to wait long for the person to answer his call.

"You want me to help you with the new Mark's weapons?"
