Fan Fiction

Chapter 2

I don't own any of the characters or anything else.

I only do this for fun writing.

No spoilers for season 2 - 5

In the group room :

"Come on, Jemma, let's go back to the lion's den and convince her of a movie night."

Skye joked and Jemma followed her.

In front of Coulson's office

May knocked on the door. When she didn't get an answer, she just went in.

She saw something she didn't find surprising.

As so often Coulson fell asleep at his desk.

He supported himself with one hand and probably looked at the documents or what he had just looked at before he fell asleep.

She went to him and was just about to wake him up when she saw it.

He had again drawn these funny related circles and lines.

She shook him a little at the shoulders.

"Phil?! Phil come on ."

"Ohh, May sorry I think I fell asleep for a second. What is it ?"

"That's beside the point for now. It happened again, didn't it ?"

She asked with emphasis and began to massage his shoulders so that he could relax a bit.

"I... Melinda it is so that.... I was just bored and then it happened somehow. I am sorry."

"Phil, there is no reason to apologize. And you don't have to explain yourself any further now. Okay?" She couldn't really explain.

She couldn't really explain what was going on.

But she knew one thing for sure, they had sworn at the academy they would look after each other no matter what.

This promise was very important to her because it was one of the few good things in her past that she likes to remember.

"...that's one of the signs, isn't it?" Phil looked May in the eyes worried. "I get unpredictable and you have to turn me off."

May approached Coulson, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., she knelt in front of him and laid her hands on his thighs: "We don't know for sure if Hypergraphia is a forerunner of madness, Phil." "But that's it."

"But that's what the other one I was talking about on the laptop, hypergraphia, aphasia, complete psychosis."

"Just because you have one of the symptoms of the GH325 doesn't mean you'll get them all." She rubbed his thighs lightly to underline her point of view.

He didn't seem to believe it.

"From what I saw, those who took GH325 showed different symptoms. Look at Garrett, he had GH325 along with the Centipede serum. Who knows what this cocktail with its already psychotic spirit did."

She could see that she was beginning to penetrate him.

"Look at Skye, she's had GH325 in her for a few months and she knows where it came from, she didn't need any memory replacement."

"So you're showing one of the signs that you told Fury about. We'll take care of it. You won't get through this alone. I certainly won't "put you to sleep"."

She had a slight lump in her throat. What just happened and what scared her even though she hardly wants to give it was what will happen in the next time.

"I could never do that to you. Never ever". Then she let a tear escape from her eye and it landed on one of her hands on Phil's leg.

Phil hadn't expected it, she had cried before, sure. But about him? Never.

"Shhhhhhhh, come here." Phil wrapped his arms around her as he pulled her onto his lap.

She clung to him and put her cop on his in shoulder.

Her hands rested on his upper body.

"I'm sorry, Phil, you shouldn't be here to comfort me like this. Not after everything you've been through." May allowed her to cry for good when she lay on his lap.

"Shhhhhhh," he said again, "It's okay, I'm here." He gently lifted her face with his hand and stroked her.

She let him lift her head slightly as his lips met hers in a tender kiss that spoke volumes. A kiss that confirmed his earlier comforting words.

One of May's hands caressed his face and the other lay on his shoulder. She loved him and at the moment she didn't want to be anywhere else but here, next to Phillip Coulson.
