December in Kansas didnt scream earthquakes. It hadn't done a ridiculous amount of damage but it had made somewhat of a mess, and there were still tremors. Ward picked up what he could. Made sure the place wouldn't burn down or anything, and then, as they usually did, his thoughts turned to Skye. She could have been hurt. She could have been unlucky during the whole mess and he couldn't let that happen. He couldn't have her hurt again. He'd texted soon after the quake to no answer. He'd called, with no answer. And yeah, she could have been ignoring him, but after the second voicemail asking just for confirmation she was okay, he was worried enough that he didn't care if she was angry. He had to know she was okay. So now, he'd go over there, Fitz and Simmons could deal with it if they were there, he had to know she was okay.

The tremors kept coming. More and more as he got closer to the apartment and it was about a block away when Ward paused. ...Quake. Tremors...the damn wishes. She'd wished...Of course she had.

He sped up. The building itself was fine, she'd kept enough of herself to ensure that, but closer to their apartment he could feel it. Skye rememebred who she was, and with that, came the power. And the guilt.

Pushing open the door, he saw her, surrounded by debris, beautiful in spite of it all, but that look in her eyes, she was scared, hurt, guilt ridden.

"Skye...Skye look at me." he said softly, edging closer to the debris. "Can you let me in?"

He knew full well, and probably she did too, that there was no one else he would do this for. No one he felt like this about. And he knew she said it was obsession, he remembered the things she'd said to him, but he also remembered here, everything they'd been through together. He hadn't hesitated when he'd seen her, scared, confused, lost. He'd had to help her, to hell with the danger.

When Skye noted his cut face it was the first time he'd realised it had even happened. He didn't care. He'd had worse. So much worse. And this had been to help her. He was about to say so, to tell her not to worry about him, he didn't matter, not when she was dealing with something like this.

But her hand had reached up to touch him, his eyes met hers again and god help him, he couldn't do anything but kiss her. Much as she didn't want to hear it, he loved her, and having her here, having her caring about him, it meant the world.

Skye did know it. She knew he wouldn't have rushed in here or risked his life for anyone else like this. A part of her thought it was creepy and a part of her found it kind of nice. Normally she tried to ignore that latter feeling.

Right now, though, she wasn't really thinking about any of that and when he leaned forward and kissed her, she quit thinking altogether. There was very little hesitation before she returned the kiss. Her arms slipped around his shoulders and she shifted closer. Her mind finally calmed completely, her worries fading to the background as she lost herself in the kiss. At some point, she was probably going to kick herself for letting him get to her like this, but in this moment, all she could think about was this moment.
