Sorry guys it's technically Tuesday but I just got home from my vacation so I didn't really have time to upload it earlier😖😢
Skye went back into surgery after the nurses got her somewhat stabilized. Ward was the only one still awake in the waiting room, Lexi was asleep on his lap and has been for some time. She cried for the first two hours thinking her mom died. Ward finally got her to calm down and just held her till she zonked out. Hannah fell asleep a couple hours ago and Ward was just staring at his daughter running only on coffee. For the last hour he has just been staring at his daughter marveling at how he could be lucky enough to have a beautiful baby girl with the woman he loved, still loves. After about six or seven hours, a nurse came in "Skye's family?" Ward immediately shot out of his chair waking Lexi. "Mommy?" She replied sleepily. "No sweetie, we're gonna see how your moms doing. How is she?" Ward looked to the nurse. "Not good, the shots perforated her stomach and penetrated the large and small intestines we resected what we could, but... There's been too much damage" she replied shakily. "So what's next?"

"We can keep her comfortable, but you'll need to make a decision on whether or not you wanna keep her on life support."

"You're saying there's nothing to be done?"

"I'm saying you need to spend as much time with her as you can. I'm sorry" with that she walked out leaving a heartbroken Ward. How am I supposed to tell Lexi? He thought.

"Mister, is my momma gonna be okay?"

"I'm not gonna lie to you, I don't know. But I'm here and I won't ever leave you Lexi, okay?"

"Why do you care? Nobody's ever cared about me besides Hannah and mommy"

"Well Lexi, you said you didn't know your dad, well now you do. I'm your da Lexi!" She looked up at him with hope written all over her face.

"Really! I have a daddy????" She launched herself at him and he caught her.

"Yes, you do and I will never leave you again. Even if your mom gets better I'm gonna stick around."

"Why did you leave us?" She asked pulling away from him but still in his arms.

"I didn't leave you sweat heart, I didn't know about you and your mom was forced to leave. Okay that's enough for tonight." He said seeing her yawn and trying to keep her eyes open."let's get you to bed and I promise I'll tell you more tomorrow, okay?"

"Okay, goodnight daddy." She said as he set her down across 2 chairs and pulled a blanket onto her that the nurse brought them.

A couple minutes later a nurse came back saying they could go in and see Skye. Ward stood up, picked up Lexi and walked back to her room. He sucked in a breath as soon as he entered her room. She has even more tubes in her, breathing for her, pumping her blood. And she is a lot more pale. He lay Lexi down in a gurney a nurse brought in and tucked her in just as a dad would do. He took the seat next to Skye and eventually dozed off. He stayed in her room not leaving except for a bathroom break and coffee. The rest of the team would stop by for a couple hours daily and bring him some food but none stayed that long except Simmons. She only stayed one night and half the day. The rest of the team eventually started going on missions again but Ward refused to go until Skye was back with him. He bonded with Lexi quite easily. Every day they would play a couple games of battleship, and being Skye's daughter, she always wins. Within the three weeks she has been there, Skye's heart stopped three more times and the nurses kept giving him pitying glances.

Ward was slowly losing hope and watching Lexi do the same, every day, she would talk to Skye about what happened last day. She always referred to Ward as daddy.

Three and a half weeks after the shooting, Ward is sitting by Skye's bed stroking her hand, Lexi is asleep on the gurney. "Skye! I am so sorry, I love you and I have missed you every day since you left! Please come back to me! I need you, Lexi needs you! Hannah even needs you, she still cares about you but she can't be here, she had to go back to work." He picked up her hand and brought it to his lips and kissed it. "Please Skye! I don't know if I can move on without you I need you!" Tears started streaming down his face. The heart monitor started to beep faster and Ward felt movement in his hands. He looked down and saw her hand started to move. She started groaning and after a few minutes she opened her eyes and blinked "Ward?" She rasped.
