Skye sat perched on one of the back tables in the lab with her legs swinging back and forth as she watched the two scientists go about their jobs. This had become a habit for and it was amusing that she never got this amount of entertainment from her laptop. It was alright watching them do the science-y stuff but the reason she stayed was for the interactions between the two dorks. They had been working together so long that even their fights were placid bordering on plain humorous. Jemma was always professional when she was working while Fitz remained a total goofball even when working with dangerous elements and often Skye was thankful that he was genuinely a great scientist, otherwise they would have already blown up. However, even with that knowledge, Simmons often scolded him when he wasn’t taking their work seriously enough, it would roll right off him and he would continue with whatever he was doing. Jemma would scowl but then turn around to hide a little amused smile.
Skye had always done this but now that her and Jemma were dating it became not only an entertaining experience but also a great way for her to spend time with the scientist since she was often stuck working in the lab.
Today they were working with machinery instead of chemicals and they were tinkering next to each other, saying orders in monotone and focused voices. Skye had already left and come back a few times since there wasn’t much room for conversation, but finally they were wrapping everything up and Skye smiled from her perch, hoping that Jemma would be able to leave early. Fitz broke into a juggling routine as he was putting some of the little tools away and Jemma obviously rolled her eyes as she organized the counter. Skye couldn’t help but laugh and Fitz smiled, encouraged, and he walked over to Jemma and poked her side lightly with what looked to be a wrench. The scientist switched her body sideways and took the wrench from the engineer.
“Stop it!”
Fitz wasn’t phased and continued to poke her sides until they were practically running around the counters with Jemma shouting half giggled protests and eventually she stopped and put a finger up and stopped the engineer with a stern voice.
“Stop it, Fitz I will tase you, don‘t think I won‘t”
She pointed to the taser gun on the counter and Skye could see a slight smirk on the scientist’s face through her own laughter.
Fitz poked her a couple more times, looking like a hyped up five year old but retreated as she reached for the stunning device.
Skye laughed and waited patiently as Jemma finished her work and got her stuff. She walked over to the counter, The agent leaned down and the scientist stood up on the tips of her toes for a kiss before they left the lab. They left to get something to eat and then the women headed straight for the bedroom. Jemma put her bags on the floor and practically fell on the bed with her eyes closed. Skye smiled before crawling on the bed on top of the scientist and sitting up with her legs around Jemma’s hips. She put her hands up and the agent took them gently looking down on her girlfriend with a little tilted smile.
“You’ve been keeping something from me”
Simmons eyes opened and she looked up with a confused expression and tilted her head slightly on the bed.
“What?”
“Yeah, something very important and something that I could’ve known a long time ago.”
“What ever do you mean?”
They kept their fingers tangled as they talked, moving with each word.
“Well, today, as I was watching you and Fitz in the lab, I used my acute observational skills to deduce….”
Skye leaned down and kissed the scientist while Jemma’s eyebrows furrowed in confusion. She let go of the other woman’s hands and placed them on Jemma’s waste before looking down with an evil grin. A look of terrified recognition came over the other woman’s face and her eyes widened.
“No”
“The great Jemma Simmons is..”
“No”
Skye leaned down and whispered playfully
“Ticklish!”
“No”
“Yes”
It was already to late, the agent had already begun to tease her fingers up and down the scientists side and the normally composed Jemma shrieked with laughter and attempted to writhe her way out from under Skye. She continued tickling the woman mercilessly and Jemma rocked from side to side, wiggling herself away as she laughed. Eventually she made her way out from under Skye’s teasing hands and off the edge of the bed. She immediately got up as Skye followed her off the bed, her face was red and her hair was messy as she ran around the room giggling with Skye right behind her. Every time she slowed down Skye would catch up to her and tickle her until she evaded and moved on giggling. This continued for a while with the two women running around the room laughing until finally, Jemma changed her tactics and turned around, breathlessly and ran into Skye who stopped as her pattern was disrupted. The scientist put her hands on the other woman’s face and kissed her, even through her fits of giggles, Skye still stopped with her tickling and kissed back, wrapping her arms around Jemma’s waste. They backed up until they fell on the bed with Simmons on top of Skye. She stopped for a moment and smiled, defeated.
“That’s not fair, you know”
The scientist grinned.
“I know. But worth it.”
