The young prodigy sat on his bed, staring at the piece of paper Coulson handed him that had Paige's number written in a messy handwriting.
He huffed, annoyed and reluctantly grabbed his phone and called the number. He waited as the phone rang as he thought about his complicated history with Paige.
They had been rivals since the beginning as she challenged his intellect, clearly showing off that she was smarter than him. But he had to admit she is smarter than him, both academically and emotionally.
Emotion and understanding them is where he lacked, very much in fact, but in his defence, he is much better at it than before.
His mind wandered off to the horrific memory of when she punched him in the face.
Suddenly the ringing stopped and after a second a sweet, soft voice came,
"Hello?"
Sheldon opened his mouth, but no sound came out as his brain decided it would be fun to relive the flashbacks of her fist colliding with his face, he gulped, his ears rate increasing.
"Hello? Anyone there?", The voice said, impatiently.
He took a deep breath before saying,
"HellO." He silently cursed himself for saying that in a high pitched voice.
He cleared his throat, "Um...Am I talking to Paige Swanson?"
"Uh yes...May I know who this is?", She said, uncertainly.
"I think you may remember me, Sheldon Cooper", There was a few moments of silence before Paige said in a shocked tone.
"Wait Sheldon?! That annoying little know-it-all?"
Sheldon was offended, but he shook it off.
"Ouch.. but yes."
"Well isn't this a surprise?", Paige said with a little laugh, "So why'd you just randomly call? And how did you get my number?"
"Well Coulson gave this number and he asked me to convi-", He started but Paige cut him across.
"Seriously! not this S.H.I.E.L.D thing again! And don't tell me you joined!"
"Well actually I did and you should too." He said.
"Are you kidding? why though?", She asked, surprised.
"Just thought I'd give it a try. And besides we get to go to Sci-tech academy to research, imagine the stuff we get to examine and study, like even from exoplanets and maybe their is even life there, just like in Star Trek."
He could literally feel her roll eyes at this comment,
"Are you sure this what you want to do with your life?", She asked softly.
"Honestly I don't know", He answered, shrugging his shoulders.
There was a moment of silence between them, he knows she is probably rethinking it.
"Fine.I'll..think about it." She said finally, yet hesitancy lingered in her voice.
"Great! Give me a call when you're ready to answer." He said feeling proud of himself.
"K bye."
"Goodbye." There was a few awkward minutes, both of them hoping that the other was going to end the call.
"So who's gonna end the call?", Paige said with a little chuckle.
"You?", Sheldon suggested, "I mean Ladies first."
Paige let out a soft laugh and hearing it made his heart do a backflip as though he had accomplished something.
"Ok Shelly, bye!"
"Don't call me tha-!", Before he could finish, she cut the call.
Sheldon sighed and put the phone back in his pocket and walked out of the room. Suddenly he stopped, literally jumping out of his skin with a little gasp of fright as he saw Coulson still standing there holding his briefcase with an amused smile.
"I thought you left?!", The genius whisper-shouted, putting his hand over his heart.
"Why are you whispering?", Coulson whispered back.
"I don't know!", Sheldon whispered yet again.
"Never mind that, What did she say?", Coulson said in his normal voice.
"She said she'll think about it." He said, shortly.
"And?", Coulson questioned.
"And...Nothing", He gave Coulson a small smile.
Coulson shot him a 'Really?' look, he cleared his throat and asked in a serious face, but the idea of Coulson being serious almost made Sheldon laugh for some reason.
"By the way, Do you have any Phd's?"
"Uhm.. ya two actually, in Physics." He said proudly.
Coulson looked at him surprised, almost as if he had not expected that.
"You have two Phd's?! At the age of 17?"
"Yup", Sheldon said popping the 'p', "I was 16, but sure."
Sheldon was eating his dinner, while he was finishing the comic book that he had been reading in the morning before he had been rudely interrupted.
His blue eyes flew across the page taking in all the art and the dialogue, pairing it to each other for it to make sense. It was so mesmerising, the colours clashing together making it beautiful, almost hypnotic.
With every page, he shoved a fork full of spaghetti and hotdogs into his mouth. He continued this system as though the outside world didn't exist, but unfortunately it did.
The door bell rang, making him drop his fork, he groaned and got up. He opened the door to face a rather pretty girl, in his opinion.
She had long shiny, wavy blonde hair that was put up in a ponytail, she also had ocean blue eyes that stood out more than her other features. Her lips, pink and plum yet dry and cracked, a few freckles that spread from the tip of her nose to her cheeks.
"I'm in", Was all the girl said as she held her shoulder bag, which looked bulk and heavy.
"Huh?"
