It's always been you

Chapter 6

Fitz POV
I sit next to Skye, hoping she will talk to me.
She doesn't seem interested in talking so we sit in silence.
It's not the awkward silence, more of the comforting kind.
Just knowing she's there, next to me, calms me down.
I feel terrible she heard everyone arguing.
When Mack was yelling and said we needed to be protected by her... Just the look on her face, It was truly heart breaking.
"I'm so sorry Skye." I say to break the silence,
"Fitz, you don't need to be sorry for anything."
"Yes I do! I'm sorry I wasn't there to protect you. I should've been by your side the whole damn time." I tell her, frustrated.
"You are always be my side, don't ever doubt that."
"What can I do to help you?" I offer
"Stay with me?"
"Of course."
She stand up and offers her hand to me,
"Tell me, what do you do to calm down?"
She looks away, almost embarrassed,
"I dance."
"Dance?" I chuckle.
"Yes, dance. Care to dance with me?"
"Let's do it!" I laugh.
She walks over and picks up her phone and blankly stares at it.
"What's wrong?"
"Everyone's trying to talk to me, I've gotten like a million texts." She murmurs
"Ignore it, you don't have to talk to anyone right now. Let's just dance."
She listens to me and puts on a song.
It's a playlist she has, I don't know any of the songs.
She's surprisingly a really good dancer, she really understands the beat.
We're laughing, having an amazing time.
She teaches me new dance moves and her smile is so precious.
The way she flings her head back when she laughs, it's truly magnificent.
The way her curls in her hair bounce as we dance is beyond perfection.
They are all really good songs though, I have to get the song list from her.
"Where are these songs from?"
"One of my foster families gave it to me. They were the only ones I liked, so when they gave me a mix tape I treasured it for ever. It got old, but I already memorized all the songs and the orders so I just re bought them."
Poor Skye, seems like everyone leaves her.
"You know that I'll never leave you, right?"
"Don't say that, there might come a day when you just leave like everyone else does. Don't tie yourself to me like that."
"Why not? I always keep my promises. I promise you that I will never leave you."
A slow song comes on, I offer my hand to her and thankfully she takes it.
She rests her head on me which makes me feel all the more comfortable with her.
We sway to the beat, after a while I don't pay attention to anything but her.
She's so precious.
Shes in my arms and it feels more right than when I was ever with Simmons.
I always really liked her, in fact, I loved her.
But those feelings were just one way, I think Skye likes me?
Maybe?
I hope so.
"What are you thinking about Fitz?" I hear her mumble into my vest.
"You."
"What about me?" She questions
"Thinking about how much I want to kiss you." I respond.
She quickly looks up at me, shock in her eyes,
"You want, you want to kiss me?" She stutters.
"Yes, very badly, can I?"
She blushes slightly,
"Yes, I've been waiting for this."
As our lips connect, I can't help but notice how right this feels. How amazing of a kisser she is. How she fits perfectly with me.
She breaks apart and looks up at me,
"That was a very good kiss." She smirks
She rests her head back on my shoulder, but I can tell things are different with us.
"Skye? Would you be my girlfriend."
She pauses for a moment,
"Yes Fitz, I would love to be your girlfriend."
I continue to slow dance with her when someone barges into Skye's "room."
Skye and I immediately break apart and step away from eachother.
An angry Simmons stand at the doorway.
"What the hell is going on?!" She yells
Skye quickly looks at me looking terrified.
Both of us have never seen Simmons like this before.
"Jemma... Calm down, what's wrong?" I try to say as calmly as possible.
"Shutup Fitz!" She hisses.
"What did I do?!" I defend myself.
"You tell me, you practically tell me that you love me, then you are here kissing Skye and slow dancing with her?!" Simmons says harshly.
"Were you snooping?!"
"Don't forget Leopold Fitz, there are cameras in here! Coulson told me to check on Skye and report back to him. That's exactly what I was trying to do when I saw you two!" She yells back.
"Why do you even care?! You are the one who left me! Can't you be happy for me that I finally found someone who feels the same way?!"
Simmons turns her direction towards Skye,
"So you like him?"
"I'm sorry Jemma! I can't help the way I feel. And Fitz is right, he gave you a chance. You were just too much of a bitch to realize what you were missing out on! And I'm so glad that you didn't give him a chance because that meant he was mine." Skye argues back.
Woah... Is this really a fight over me?!
"Whatever!!" Simmons yells, before she can finish we feel a small rumble under our feet.
Simmons and I both turn our attention to Skye.
Skye sits down on her bed holding her head tightly.
"Look what you made happen!" I yell at Simmons.
"Me?! You did this!"
"Arguing won't make it better!" I fight back.
The shacking increases and soon objects are falling.
"Skye? Skye, come on, calm down."
"It won't stop!" She cries out.
May and Coulson run into the room to be beside Skye.
"What happened?!" May demands to know.
I ignore them yelling and I focus on Skye.
"Skye, calm down. You can do this." I reassure her.
"This is too much!" She says, tears starting to form in her eyes.
"No, don't cry , I'm right here, I will always be here." I whisper.
The shacking calms down slightly,
"Fitz, whatever you're doing... Keep doing it." Coulson orders.
I don't know what in doing?!
I'm just talking to her.
I don't know what else to do, I press my lips on hers and we start kissing again.
After what seems like maybe 20 seconds, everything is back to normal.
No more shacking, she did it.
We break apart and look at everyone else.
A crowd has seemed to form, May,Coulson, Bobbi, Simmons, Mack, and Hunter are all in the room.
Everyone seems to be staring at us, I'm still holding Skye's hand.
"Well, I didn't see that coming." Hunter tries to joke.
No one laughs, everyone just stares at Skye and me.
Simmons runs out of the room crying, with Bobbi following following, probably to comfort her.
I clear my throat,
"Can you give Skye and I a minute?"
Still no one else answers but they leave us.
"That wasn't exactly how I expected everyone to find out...." I trail off.
"Yeah..."
"I'm sorry I kissed you, I didn't know what else to do."
"Fitz, don't be sorry. If it weren't for you, I probably would have broke this B.U.S. That kiss... That was pretty powerful. It got me to calm down. Thanks."
She smiles alittle and I pull her closer to me.
"I think you shouldn't be with me... You should be with Simmons."
I quickly move away, unable to comprehend what I'm hearing.
"No Skye, you are the one I want to be with."
"Yes but-" she starts to say but I cut her off before she can finish.
"No, no buts. Don't you get it, it's always been you."
She has no counter argument and instead hugs me,
"She's so mad."
"She will get over it." I assure her.
