"Did you- Did you come in there while I was unconscious? Or was I dazed?" My voice trembled. "I was in that place for almost two weeks, being cut open and beat like an animal. I was hanging on by a thread when Rogers saved me. You- you knew all about it."

"No, Danielle. I didn't know everything." He tried to calm me down as my anger spiked.

"Did you come and help? Huh? Did you use a knife on me? Or did you use your bare hands?!" I screamed, hitting his chest as hard as I could. I was suddenly ripped free of him. Dad had ahold of my hips, pulling me away. "How did it feel to beat a little girl up?! Huh!?" I still tried to get to Grant as dad basically picked me up. I probably looked like a girl from one of those shows where she has to be towed away from someone she's about to beat up. "Did you like seeing me cry?! Did you enjoy it?!" Dad pushed me against the wall so he had more control over me. I gave up and sank to the floor in a ball of tears. Dad was hushing me, brushing my hair back. Grant was talking to Phil and Fury while Natasha went back into the room with Garret. My eyes were squeezed shut as I cried horribly.

"Danielle. Honey. Settle down." Dad rubbed my hand. After a while, I finally started to stop crying. Then it was only me and dad in the room. I had t even noticed that Phil, Grant, and Fury had left.

"I want to talk to him, dad."

"Not right at the moment, Dani."

"Dad. I need to."

"Honey." He sighed, running his hand over his face. I could tell that whatever Garret had said about me crying for people had made dad upset.

"Please." I whispered.

"Okay." Dad nodded.

"Thank you." I wrapped my arms tightly around his neck. He hugged me equally tight.

"I love you, Danielle."

"I love you, daddy." When Fury came back in, I let dad go.

"Ms. Danielle, Agent Ward is being questioned as we speak."

"No. I want to be the one in there." I shook my head, standing up with dad's help.

"With your relationship with Ward, that's probably not a good idea."

"There is no relationship. Not until I have my answers. He's just someone who I have mixed emotions about. I want to question him outside of SHIELD. Away from anyone apart of SHIELD." I crossed my arms.

"Fine." Fury sighed. He knew I was pissed.

"Danielle." Dad put his hand on my shoulder.

"I'll be fine. If he tries to hurt me or anything, I can use what he taught me against him. I have a few other tricks up my sleeve." I kissed dad's cheek before walking with Fury down the hallway with dad beside me.

"Happy's going with you at least."

"He can drive the car. But I'm talking to Grant by myself. If I need help, then I'll call in Happy. Deal?" I asked dad.

"Fine." Dad sighed, then broke off when he started to call Happy. Fury held a door open for me. I walked in to see Natasha was the one questioning Grant.

"Romanoff." Fury nodded for Natasha to leave. Another SHIELD agent took Grant out to the car Happy was in, since Grant had hand cuffs on. I got into the front seat before Happy started driving.

"Danielle. Please. Just let me explain-"

"Hey! No talking." Happy glanced back at Grant.

"Keep your eyes on the road, Happy." I brushed my hair back with my hand.

Happy waited outside of a little diner while Grant and I went inside. Happy took off Grant's cuffs before we went into the diner. I sat across from Grant, looking into his eyes.

"Explain everything that Garret said. Everything. I want to know every single detail, Agent Ward."

"Dani. It's not Agent Ward-"

"The hell it is. I'll call you whatever the hell I want to. Explain. Now."

"You don't want to know, Danielle." Grant whispered.

"Try me."

"Fine. I didn't know they had you. Garret only told me they had a girl in for questioning."

"What about the video?"

"Garret only said that to piss you off."

"Well it sure as hell worked. Keep talking." I crossed my arms. Grant looked around the diner, letting out a sigh as he put his hands on the table.

"Danielle. Some things weren't meant for you to know-"

"Well you better tell me know." My voice cracked. "I know one thing. Garret was right. I cried your name, Grant. I cried and screamed for you to come and save me." That tugged on his emotional ropes. No one else would've probably seen it, but I knew him too well. His brown eyes were shining, like he was on the verge of crying. "That's one of the things I remembered. I was on the ground, laying on my side in a fetal position. Blood was coming out of every cut in my body. I was in complete agony. And I screamed for you." I wiped a tear away and sniffled.

"Danielle. I can't tell you anymore. Because I love you too much." His voice cracked this time. Just then, something crashed through the window. Smoke started filling the room. Grant remained calm. That scared me. As I started to black out, my trust in Agent Grant Ward started to buffer.
