Chapter 5

In the next Fitz and Simmons were in the lab trying to find a way to reverse what happened to them, their brains were there, of course. But the bodies they possessed presented their problems.

"Oh blood hell!" Jemma shouted out as a beaker broke inside Mack's massive hands. "Mack's giant hand have more strength for the beakers to handle."

"At least for hands are coordinated, I can barely get my drawings of my inventions with these long, skinny fingers." Fitz interjected. "And this hair, what is it with girls and long hair?"

"Hey!" Jemma said, until she felt the top of Mack's being smoother than a baby's bottom.

"Guy's" the two turn to see Fitz's body standing in the doorway. "We have a problem."

The two were concerned and followed. Skye led them to the briefing room were Melinda May's body with the mind Phil Coulson began to speak.

"You all know of what has happened in the past couple of days." Phil announced, everyone nodded their heads. "We now have a new problem."

"What is it?" Bobbi voice sounded.

"Agent Tripplett is returning." Phil replied. "He's not been here in the past few days and has been on mission with Billy and Sam, and we all know how they like to mess with him."

"Oh yeah." Skye said.

"Wait, what do you plan for us to do?" Mack's voice sounded from the tiny body of Simmions.

"Well, hopefully, Fitz can come up with something that can disguise our voice as one another and with that being said, we're going to have to get out of our comfort zones." Phil answered. "That also means that May is going to have to have my little obsession of Captain America and as to smile."

Some of the crowd stifle some laughter as they imagined her smiling and saying Captain America-like speech to get them ready for missions. May on the other hand, was not amused.

"In order for us to do this, we are going to have to get to know each other a little better." Phil finished.

Everyone looked to their bodies and those who resided inside them and sighed. Phil and May always ready each other like the back of their hands to need to study, although, it never hurt to have a re-lesson. Fitz and Skye went to Skye's room for study, Simmons and Mack went to the garage for theirs. Bobbi and Hunter already knew each other, all they had to do was avoid each other.

"Okay, AC said we needed to know one another so... let's do this." Skye started.

Words were absent for a few moments because awkwardness. And those moment felt like death.

"Okay." Fitz broke the silence. "In order to be me, you have know how to handle my thing, no my hardware, no my equipment, no my... technology."

Skye couldn't help but laugh as Fitz stumbled with his words. He would always make her laugh in the right moments and him doing it while in her body made it even funnier.

"And also to avoid any suspicions you have to..." Fitz stopped as he was cut off.

"Pine over Simmons?" Skye said.

Fitz was shocked with what he heard and, even more so, that she knew.

"How?" Fitz questioned.

"Everybody knows." she said bluntly.

"Everybody?" Fitz continued in shock.

"Yep, you really don't know how your body is when you're around her." Skye replied.

"Well, don't worry about that, because I'm done doing that." Fitz admitted.

"Really, what happened?" she wondered.

"Remember, when Ward dropped me and Simmons in the ocean?" Fitz stopped to see his head nodding and continued. "I was willing to make a sacrifice and to have Simmons live, in doing so, I told her how I felt about her and she still thought of me as her best friend."

"Oh, friend zoned." she pieced together. "That sucks."

"Yeah, sucks even more because I suffered permanent brain damage because of it and she left." he said as Skye's head looking as he remembered the pain he felt. "I know she had to infiltrate HYDRA, but she could have at least checked up on me every now and then. Funny thing is that when we first met, we only saw competition in each other and as we got to know each other, I thought we had grown into something...more. But apparently, I was wrong."

"At least you didn't in love with a HYDRA agent." Skye joked earning a chuckle from Fitz.

"Yeah, at least that didn't happen." Fitz replied back. "But I still, I thought she was the one."

"Fitz" she started as she moved closer to her body and put his hands upon hers. "Sometimes the girl that's like you isn't the best match for you, sometimes it's the polar opposite that makes the best match. Sometime it's the one that's so far from you that ends up being the one for you."

"Someone like you?" Fitz said.

"Ummm?" Skye said as she was caught off guard with his words. "I guess so. Can we just keep going with the whole study thing?"

"Sure, Skye." Fitz said.

Skye didn't know, but Fitz's face turn red in turn of his words.

"Okay, Simmons, you be with Fitz in the lab so being in the garage is like that, only with mechanical tools. Think you can do that?" Mack wondered.

"I'm a biologist not a engineer, that's Fitz's area." Jemma reminded.

"This is gonna be a long day." Mack muttered.

Back in Phil's office. He and May were in talks if the plan going to work or not.

"Well, May, you think it's gonna work." Phil asked.

"Nope, between Fitz and Simmons history, get gonna be hard for Mack and Skye be them given that Skye likes Fitz." May asnwered.

"Wha?" Phil said confused.

"Yep." May said.

"How do you know?" Phil questioned.

"Phil, please, I train with her." May replied. "It's our...girl time. I'm going to check on Bobbi and Hunter."

"Okay, hurry back." Phil said.

"Phil, you want me that bad all you have my body." May teased.

"That's not what I meant, May." Phil fired back. "I meant we need to keep with the plan."

"I already know you well enough, Phil." May said. "Oh, Steve, why don't you love me Steve I'm you biggest fan, I watched you while you were sleeping. Oh why, don't love you me, Steve?" acting all dramatically.

But May's face was expressionless until her hand point to her face.

"You see this? This is you." Phil said.

Phil's eyes rolled as his body left to check on Bobbi and Hunter. But back in the office, May's face had a smile of victory and revenge.

"Point for Philly." he said.
