Philinda Book

There for you

OMG my first Philinda Story ahhh
Okay not actually. But it is my first one I publish.

I'm really tired and I have no idea how this story will turn out haha

(Season 3)

This takes place around the time May found out that Andrew had become an Inhuman. May has been very quiet ever since, and Coulson worries about her.

~~~~~~~~~~

It was late. Coulson lay awake in bed staring at the wall. For 3 hours he tried to close his eyes but it didn't work.
He uncovered himself, got into his shoes and looked for his shirt.
Coulson went down the stairs to the meeting room. When he got there, the lights were already on. Who was awake at that time? Except for himself. He stopped in the doorway and looked around the room.
May sat with her back to him at the big table and leafed through a lot of paper. She made notes on a pad from time to time. May paused and closed a folder. "You're staring." "I don't...maybe." He went to her. "Are those Andrew's files?" "No...yes." "I told you to stop it. It's not good for you." "It's just paper." Coulson picked up a folder. "Maybe. Paper doesn't hurt. But what's written on it." "Bullshit.." She tried to take the folder away from him again. "Please stop it." "It's the only thing I have left of Andrew and you're really trying to take it away from me?"
"You act like he's lost. Andrew's still out there." "No. Lash is out there. Not Andrew." "May!" Coulson's voice had risen and she was staring at him. "Just stop it. It hurts to see you like that." "You don't understand. Now give me the folder back." "No." "Phil-" "No. Melinda we'll find him and then we'll help him. I promise!" "I have to kill him. He's dangerous." "I can't let that happen. I won't let you put yourself back into a black hole just because you feel guilty." "Stop talking about Bahrain." "I'm not talking about Bahrain." "I know exactly what you mean. And actually I was hoping you might get some sleep today." She grabbed the folder and left the room. Coulson just stood there feeling like a "failure."

After Lash's death

May sat in the Quinjet next to Lash's dead body. She didn't know how to feel about it. Lash wasn't a threat anymore, but they couldn't save him now anyway. Footsteps came closer and she looked up. "I told you we can't save him." Coulson just stood and looked at her. "I'm sorry Melinda. Everything. I should have let you do what you wanted." She got up and came to him a bit. "You want to apologize now?" He nodded softly. "I want to be there for you Melinda. I wanted to be there before. But the way I did it was wrong. It was stupid and inconsiderate. And I'm sorry." "It's okay. I shouldn't have reacted like that." "Melinda May. Stop contradicting me when I try to apologize to you." She smirked. "Thank you Phil."
"Want to drink?" "If you mean not water." "No I don't. But don't drink too much." "I promise." "Meet me in my office if you want. I am waiting." May was silent for a moment. "No, I'll come with you now." "Are you sure May?" "Yes... I think so." She exited the Quinjet and followed him to his office.
Coulson got 2 glasses from a cupboard. "I got a new whiskey and I would like to try it. But not alone." May sat down at the table. "You're not alone." "I know. And I'm grateful for that." She smiled. He poured for May and himself and sat down opposite her.
They toasted each other and Coulson started drinking. May watched him do it and took a sip too. When Coulson put his glass down he noticed May looking at him. "Hey? You're okay?" She smiled slightly and nodded. "Yes, everything is okay." Coulson winced and jumped up. "Not again." He pulled on his prosthetic arm. May also got up. "What's happening?" "My arm emits electric shocks all the time." "What the hell?" "I was actually going to take it to Fitz but I forgot." He flinched again. May had to laugh slightly. "That looks really stupid." "Well thank you. How about helping?" May went to him. "What should I do?" "Just take it off!" May grabbed his arm and rolled up his sleeve and twisted the silver ring of the prosthesis. Her fingers slid over his skin and Coulson looked at her. Not a second later, she held them in her hand and put them away. "You should really take that to Fitz." Coulson just looked at her in silence. "Phil, hey!" She snapped a finger in front of his face.
"I am fine." "Sure? You looked very absent." Coulson cleared his throat. "I was absent." He went back to the table and picked up his glass.

Damn it Phil, what was that?

"Hey! I wasn't done yet." He turned to her and winced when he saw how close she was to him. "Hm?" "You don't look like you're doing well." "You're here..with me. Why shouldn't I be fine?" She smiled and shook her head. "A glass too much whiskey?" "What's that supposed to mean? Do you really think I'm just being nice because of the whiskey? Then you don't know me very well Melinda."
"No, you're always nice to me. And right now you're trying to support me so I don't fall into a 'black hole' like you said." "Also." "Also?" He sighed and looked at her. "I'm sorry to see you like this and I'll do anything to make you happy. It doesn't matter how, as long as you're happy. I know it's complicated right now, but I'll help you and we can do it... together." "But why?" "Because I love you Melinda. And I always have."

Okay Phil, you're a dead man now. Tell her you love her after she lost her ex husband. Not a good choice.

There was an awkward silence. "I love you too."

Wait what???

"But..." "Andrew..I know. I loved him and I married him. But I've loved you since the academy and I thought you would be happy with Audrey. That I didn't deserve you. That's why I married Andrew." "Funny, I thought the same thing about you and Andrew." "The universe had something else planned." "Yeah." May came a little closer. "Maybe we should listen to the universe." "Perhaps." May's eyes flitted to his lips. Before she knew it, her lips were on his and he was kissing her. Coulson had expected everything for the foreseeable future. But not that.
May broke the kiss and Coulson hugged her. "We'll do this together. I promise. Everything will be fine." She put her arm around his neck. "Thank you Phil."
