Mays POV
I'm so happy for Fitzsimmons truly, but I notice Skye walking away after Simmons's announcement.
And after, I can't concentrate on anything and then next thing I know everyone's hugging each other. Simmons leaves and goes to the bunk area, shoot, I missed my moment to be with skye.
I sneak close to her bunk and I hear everything. I can tell Skye is really uncomfortable at first but she warms up to Simmons and I hear her sniffling. It seems they have made up so when Simmons leaves I quickly sneak into Skye's dorm.
"Hey."
"Hey!" Skye cheerfully greets me
"What's up?"
"Well Simmons and I made up, so that's great." Skye gets up and grabs my hand and has me sit on the bed with her.
"I just really want to thank you for earlier, I'm really glad you were there to talk to when I felt just so alone in the world."
She smiles at me and I squeeze her knee assuringly.
"You really do have a big place in my life and I was shocked when the Calvary had a soft spot for me, so thanks." Skye finished
"Anytime Skye... but please... don't call me that." I sigh
"Want to talk about it? I told you my story, your turn" Skye says
I guess it's only fair I tell her, I take a deep breath preparing myself to relive those moments.... Those extremely painful moments.
"Well as you know agents were taken hostage and my job was to ki... I mean, eliminate the threat. Coulson ordered me to wait for backup and asked what I was going to do, of course me being totally stubborn I ignored and replied with 'whatever it takes'. I went in and was immediately faced with two guards. This is what I was destined to do, but I realized I couldn't just injure them. I had to kill them, either that.... or they kill me. Sometimes I wish I had them kill me, it would just be way easier...Skye, you never forget what it feels like to smash two peoples skulls in together and to see the light go right out of their eyes, and I just left them there," I can feel my eyes starting to water up and skye puts a hand on my shoulder, "I moved on and was faced with 4 more this time and I pierced one of them in the heart with a rod and used the body with the rod still in it to ram the other guy in the heart. There they were, lifeless, stuck together and it was because of me. I managed to get through the guards and again I moved on. I killed everyone of them with my bare hands and I got the hostages and the agents out safely. Coulson assured me I did good and that I need to stay strong, but I knew I had killed many, what had I become? I- I was a monster. When I went back to base I went to the women's room and stared at the mirror, I saw the bruises and the cuts and my swollen eye. Everything about me had changed, all because I was too stupid to wait for backup. I punched the mirror so hard," I lifted up my sleeve to show her an old scar, this is where the glass pierced me. I didn't bother to try to clean it or get rid of the scar. It's my reminder of what I did." I'm about to burst into tears so I stop telling the story and pause for a moment. I'm about to start up again when Skye stops me
"It's okay, I get it"
"Thanks." I sniffle, " must be weird seeing me cry"
"No, not weird at all, only human."
Skye gives me a hug and I know why I care about her. She's what I picture my daughter would be like if I haven't devoted my life to Shield, but I don't think I'll ever tell anyone.

Simmons POV
I couldn't be happier.
I'm so in love with how Fitz talks, walks, and acts, he is just overall the ideal man!
It's 2 in the morning and I can't sleep.
I sit up and rub my eyes.
God we are gonna be on this plane forever!!! Eh, might as well make the best of it.
I put on my slippers and slowly open the door to my bunk and it creeks, I'm going almost scared someone will wake up.
I tip toe to Leo's room and contemplate whether or not I should go in.
I do so and open the door and shut it. Leo looks so cute when he sleeps and thank god he's closer to the wall so I can just slip right in.
I cuddle close to him and I just bury my head in his chest
"Jemma?" Fitz whispers extremely softly still half asleep
"Sorry I couldn't sleep, I really wanted to see you."
Fitz sits up in his bed fully awake now,
"What's troubling you darling?"
Ugh I can't get over how cute "darling" is in a Scottish accent.
"I'm confused about something,"
"What is it, you can tell me anything." He assures me
How do I tell him that I think I love him. Do I just say, yeah I think I'm in love with you but I don't know how to say it, I have to think on my feet.
"Um, I'm wondering why you picked me over every beautiful women there could possibly be."
Totally saved it!
Without hesitation, Fitz responds "Well why not you, you are perfect in every way , you make me smile, and you're my best friend, it's the dream! There is no girl I would ever want to be with, I want you in my life forever"
Oh my god did he just say forever??? What does this mean?
Fitz pulls me closer and plants a soft kiss on my lips, I can taste his soft strawberry lips and it feels amazing.
"Fitz, you're the best thing that ever happened to me."
"I couldn't have said it better myself Jemma, I'm really glad you came to see me."
Fitz kisses me on the forehead and lies back down with me in his arms. It's like the movies when the girl truly realizes what love is.
"Don't ever leave me."
"Wasn't planing on it" Fitz whispers
I fall asleep listening to our heart beats come in tune.
I feel his warmth and it makes me so in love with him.
All Fitz and I are doing are cuddling and I'm pretty sure he's asleep but this is a very magical night for me.

Fitz POV
Shit did I really just say forever?
That's practically asking her to marry me!
Although I immediately regret saying it waaaaaay to soon, Jemma seems flattered and it makes my heart melt.
I want to tell her how much I love her and sweep her off her feet and ride into the sunset with her. It can be like a fairytale.
I'm not sure if Jemma is asleep or not but it's been 3 hours so I think she finally is.
I turn over and this may sound creepy or not but I just love watching her sleep.
Her beautiful face is so adorable and I just want to admire it.
I'm not sure how to tell her and it's far too soon but I want it to be magical and special. Or actually, is it soon?
Some things I've learned from being friends with Simmons is that she has never told a guy she loves her and has never experienced love.
I really want her to love me and I think she does I just don't think she will admit it just yet.
It's nearly morning and thank god our break extended a week so I have so much time with her.
"Good morning buttercup"
"Hey there Prince Charming"
The way she wakes up is so cute, she does this adorable yawns and twitches her nose.
I can't help it, I kiss her on the nose.
"What will we do today beautiful?"
"Anything you want"
With a smirk I reply
"Anything anything??"
Jemma looks confused and I wink at her
"Ugh no Fitz!! How come every man wants to do that!? It's unappealing to the girl I mean, there should be a sign, no entry only exit!" She laughs
"Just kidding, but oh Jemma, how do you know it's Unappealing if you never tried it or wait Jemma Simmons you saucy little minx, have you tried it?! " I joke
Jemma blushes and says "stories okay, I haven't done anything that wasn't with you, I didn't want to be anyone but yours..."
That's actually really adorable
"Wait but Jemma, we haven't done anything in like a million years that last time we did anything we were 17" I confront her,
Jemma gives me this look of guilt
"Jemma spill the beans, we are dating now you can tell me anything!"
"Okay well Fitz, I'm not sure if you remember but on New Year's Eve of that same year I kind of got you really drunk and I seduced you.... It wasn't the first time either...."
"Shit Jemma!!!!"
"I'm sorry Fitz!"
"That's like... Totally badass!" I joke
"You're not mad?"
"Why would I be? It's fine, but just saying I was a total gentleman, you seduced me against my will"
"Oh Fitz you were completely drunk that is sooooo not gentleman-like in the first place!"
"Just okay Jemma, can you just let me have this one.... Just okay?!" I laugh
"Okay Fitz! You win!"
"Hooray and since I win I get to choose the prize!"
"Ugh fine what is it that you want?" Jemma sighs
"A special kiss from my girlfriend and for her to say yes to my next question" I ask.
"Fine."
Jemma kisses me and she starts giggling, okay part one completed, part two.... Ask away"
"Will you go on a date with me tonight?"
"Yes!!!" She squeals, it's so cute when she does that. She kisses me and says
"7:00?"
I nod and head off so she can change with privacy since I'm a total gentleman.
I know exactly how this date will be and trust me it's going to be amazing!! I will sweep her off of her feet and it will be great.

A/N: there date is super adorable! Trust me! Keep reading! Hope you enjoy! LYSM!
