Skye:

The car ride to the hotel was terrible, Ward and I not talking about anything or to anyone. I just wish I knew what was going to happen, was this going to end well or with one of us dying? Ward was going undercover as my brother which helps because I can talk to him and go to him for protection. I lose myself in what ifs very quickly, what if one of is doesn't come out of this, what if I get kidnapped, what if they kill Ward, what if....

"Skye." Ward says to me.

"What?" I jump out of my own world. "What happened?"

"We're here." He says.

I look out the window and see the hotel, I don't want to do this, not at all.

"Okay." I tell him and swallow hard.

I open my door and look up at the hotel, it's probably 10 stories tall and it has brick walls. I close the car down and walk to the back where Coulson is getting stuff ready for us, I packed a bag that should last me a week and Ward did the same.

"Okay, let's do this." I tell Ward.

"Okay." He tells me.

"Bye Coulson." I say and hug him.

"Bye Skye, see you soon" he tells me.

"Bye sir." Ward says to him.

"Bye Ward." Coulson says and whispers something to him I don't hear.

Ward and I walk into the main door into the check in room, we walk over the the counter and Ward does all the talking. After he finishes talking to her we walk over to the elevator and her pushes the button for level 4. We ride in the elevator in silence, I didn't know if it was me who didn't want to talk or him but we didn't talk. We got to our room and Ward unlocked the door, the room was kinda small but it was nice, it had white walls and floors, there was only one big problem: there was one bed....

"You can sleep on the bed." Ward says and his puts his bag in a chair.

"Are you sure?" I ask him.

"Definitely." He tells me.

"Okay." I say to end our conversation.

I set my bag down on the bed and sit next to it, Ward walks into the bathroom and comes back out quickly.

After he leaves the bathroom I go in, I don't need to use it but I just want a moment alone, I shut the door behind me and stare in the mirror at myself or the person I have started calling myself. The world around me as changed me more then anyone could imagine and I still hasn't figured if I liked it or not. I don't want to do this at all, of course I want to help our team but this is crazy and it's just Ward and I or pretty much just me.

A small tear grows in my eye after staring in the mirror for a while, I can't do this! But I know I can! My thoughts overwhelm me and tears roll down my face, the thoughts of going back to the team make me try harder. I haven't cried like this in months, then again I haven't gone on a mission this crazy in... well I never have.

I wipe the tears off my face and open the bathroom door. Ward is sitting on the bed using his computer, he looks up at me when I open the door. I hope he doesn't notice how blood shot my eyes are.

"I'm going to go for a walk." I tell him and open the door to our hotel room.

"You want me to come with you?" He asks.

I really did but I didn't want to make him come with me.

"Sure if you want to." I tell him.

"I'd love to." He says and smiles.......
