Chapter 36
In his eyes, she sparked even in her exquisite deep violet velvet gown under the dimmed lights. He smiled right back, his nerves disappearing in that instant as he got up from his chair. She gave him a questioning look, but he didn’t change the expression on his face.
The questioning look didn’t last long, as he fished around in his pocket and seamlessly got down on one knee. The box was smoothly popped open to reveal the glittering ring inside.
Her bright smile dissolved the last of his nerves. “Doll, I’ve loved you with all my heart for years. Will you make me even happier, and let me make you the happiest? Darcy Jade Lewis, will you marry me?”
“Yes, Bucky, yes!” She exclaimed, as he slid the ring onto her ring finger, and she pulled him up and they exchanged a heated kiss, before one of the waiters brought out a chocolate cake for two.
“Congratulations, it’s on the house.”
Just their luck, some reporters were having a business dinner nearby, and caught the whole thing. The restaurant got publicity more than worth a single cake, as Darcy and Bucky’s broadly smiling faces were plastered across headlines side by side with a picture of Darcy’s elegantly exquisite ring.
Jane's squeal of congratulations was worth more to Darcy than the whole internet’s worth.
A/N: well, not quite fluff.
“That’s definitely him, Director.” As an afterthought, “And her.”
“You’re sure?”
“I’m sure. And thank you again.”
“It’s no problem, Ward. The fact you emerge brave enough to defect from them says loads about your character.”
“I value this team more than the Order of the Phoenix’s psych tactics, Sir.”
“Good. Skye, have you managed to hack them?”
“Their servers are buried, but I’m almost there.” She said, “Coulson, what are we going to do, Cal drew attention to himself by going on a killing spree, and associating himself with me.”
“Just you?”
“He doesn’t know anyone on the team but Ward and I.”
“Good. Get to hacking, and we can take this Neó-Hydra down for good.” SHIELD Director Coulson said.
Skye and Ward left for her room, and Coulson turned a blind eye to the fact that it was soundproofed.
When they closed the door and raised the privacy protections, Skye asked. “How much longer do you think I should stall?”
“I was told to break their cover, and then they kidnap us in exchange to Russia, which will soon be one large safe house.”
“How long?”
“The press conference is in 2 hours, so no more than a day.”
“Great. I really hate to break Fitz and Simmons hearts though.”
“If you don’t hurt her, he’ll come around eventually, and the same vice versa.”
“Well, Mr. McMatchmaker, how about we move on to less spy stuff?”

A/N: Never mind, some more fluff.
“Tony?”
“Yeah?”
“What do you think about reusing the name Hermione?”
“Why?” He asked, closing his blueprint sketches.
“I’m pregnant, and Teddy and Ron are getting a sister.”
Tony grinned. “Hermione Morgan Stark. Morgan as a variation of Maria. How does that sound?”
“Perfect.” She said, as she floated the blueprints back to his room.
