It was just a simple mission.

There was a 16 year old, who had just lost his mum, and was dealing with it badly. Very badly. He had somehow managed to get a knife into his classroom, at S.H.I.E.L.D Academy, and was holding it against another boys neck. He refused to talk to any men, and would only speak to the girls in his class. Coulson's team had been sent in to get the hostages out. They needed Simmons, as she was the sweetest person there, and could calm him down the easiest. They needed Bobbi, in case things went south, and Skye was monitoring security cameras and comms, for training.

Simmons did her job perfectly, managing to coax the boy into letting out the hostages. Skye watched the whole thing unfold on the cameras. At the end of the mission, Bobbi and Simmons, embraced, Bobbi saying "That was perfect Simmons. I could never have been as calm as you." As Skye watched the two embrace, she felt a sharp pang of jealousy. Skye was confused. "What am I jealous of?" she thought.

As the team were being debriefed, Skye found her eyes drawn to Jemma. She was barely taking in what Coulson was saying. Then Jemma glanced at Skye, and their gaze locked. Skye looked into Jemma's eyes. Her warm, brown chocolatey eyes…

Tripp, who was standing next to Skye, coughed, and the spell was broken. Skye looked at him, and he looked back, a slight grin on his face. Skye felt embarrassed but she wasn't sure why...

Hunter's voice sounded on the intercom. "EVERYBODY TO THE MEETING ROOM. I HAVE AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT."

Everyone was in the meeting room in 5 minutes.

"What's this about Hunter?" asked Coulson.

"Glad you asked. It has come to my attention, that this was our 50th mission together, as a team. I believe that a celebration is in order. I have spoken to a few contacts, and in 2 weeks time, we will be meeting in Merristone hall, at 8pm. Pick out your suits and dresses, and prepare for a long night. Class dismissed." And with that, Hunter strode out of the meeting room, a grin on his face.
