Hi guys, this is my second fanfic. This is the reason why my other fanfic has been updated a little less. I hope you like it, but truthfully I'm just writing this because the idea of it has been stuck in my head for the past week, so I finally decided to write it.

Sorry for any spelling or grammar mistakes.


Chapter 1

May's POV

I woke up to the sound of snoring coming from Phil. I rolled my eyes but then smiled as he continued to snore loudly. I got out of bed and walked into mine and Phil's en suite bathroom for a quick shower.

Once I got out of the shower I got dressed and brushed my teeth. I glanced at my watch, it was 7:26. I walked out of my room and headed towards my oldest daughter's room.

When I walked into the hallway I heard chattering coming from downstairs. I walked down the stairs and into the kitchen to see Leo and Jemma dismantling the toaster.

Phil and I had adopted Leo and Jemma from their birth parents the day after they were born. Their birth mum was young and couldn't take care of twins, so she contacted an adoption agency while she was pregnant to find a couple to take care of them. Phil and I weren't looking to adopt but my friend who works at the adoption agency told me the story about a 16 year old girl who was pregnant with twins and had been left by her boyfriend to take care of them on her own. So Phil and I decided to help her out. We contacted the adoption agency and sorted out all the paperwork, and two months later we walked out of the hospital with two new-borns, our four year old son, our three year old daughter and our two year old daughter

"Leo Fitz Coulson. Jemma Simmons Coulson. What do you think you are doing? I asked sternly.

"Fitz and I needed one of the parts to finish our school project" Jemma said.

Leo and Jemma had started to call each other their middle names, not that I had any clue why.

"Well we also need that part to make breakfast, so it better be put back together by the time your dad comes downstairs to make breakfast" I told them.

"Mum" Leo moaned. I gave him a stern look "fine" he said giving up, before turning back to the toaster. I turned and started to leave the kitchen but paused at the door. I turned back around to look at Leo and Jemma. I smiled at the sight of the two of them working together to put the toaster back together.

I walked up the stairs and knocked on Nat's door. "I'm up mum" I heard. I opened the door and saw Nat stuffing some textbooks into her bag.

"How'd you know it was me?" I asked.

Nat laughed and said "who else knocks on my door at 7:30 am?"

I laughed. "Are you ready for school?" I asked.

"Yep, just packing some homework" she replied.

"So who's driving today, you or Lance?" I asked.

Lance and Natasha shared a car and took it in turns to drive to school.

"It's Monday so it's Lance's turn" she replied. I nodded and walked over to her.

I kissed her forehead and said "I'm going to go wake up Lance and Skye"

Nat scoffed "Good luck with that last part. Skye was probably up all night texting Grant"

Grant was Skye's 'boyfriend'. Phil and I had told her that she was not allowed to date him as he was 17 and Skye was only 15. But Skye being Skye was probably still dating him.

"I'm going to kill her" I told Nat before I rushed towards Jemma and Skye's room.

I burst into the room to see a sleeping Skye sprawled across her bed. Her head hung off the side of the mattress with her long dark hair dangling down to the floor. "Skye wake up" I said loudly. She stirred but just turned onto her side and began to fall asleep again. "Skye" I said again. This time she didn't even stir.

I walked over to the window and yanked open the curtain. The sun's light burst in, Skye hissed and retreated underneath her covers. I pulled the covers off of her and shouted "Skye Daisy Coulson get up now". This startled her and she tumbled out of bed and onto the floor. She groaned and tiredly rubbed her eyes. I pulled her up and glared at her. "Have you been texting Grant, after your father and I specifically told you not to? I said through gritted teeth.

"What? No. Of course not mum" she said sweetly.

"Save it Skye, your sister told me you've been texting him" I responded.

"Natasha you grass" Skye muttered.

"You're grounded" I said

"What? But I-"

"And if I find out that you are dating him after today, I will take your phone and smash it into a thousand pieces" I interrupted.

"Whatever" Skye grumbled.

"And I want you straight home after school, so make sure that you go straight to the car and wait for Lance and Natasha. Ok?" I added.

Skye huffed. "Now get ready for school" I told her before walking out.


I knocked on Lance's door but after not receiving a reply I opened the door and walked in. The room that Lance shared with Leo was a mess. On one side was dirty laundry and piles of unfinished homework; on the other side were textbooks, spare parts and dismantled technology. Lance lay on his side on his bed. He was snoring loudly, just like his father.

"Lance" I said gently as I shook him awake. He stirred then slowly opened his eyes.

"Morning mum" he said as he sat up, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes at the same time.

"Morning son, you better get dressed quickly, you need to leave in about 20 minutes. He nodded and began to get out of bed.

I walked out of the boy's room and headed downstairs. As I walked into the kitchen, I was greeted by the smell of pancake syrup, toast and bacon flooding my senses. Phil was standing behind the counter serving pancakes to Leo and Jemma, who had apparently put the toaster back together.

"Morning Mel" Phil said when he saw me.

I walked over to him and kissed him on the cheek. I kissed Jemma on the top of her head then did the same to Leo. I ruffled his curly brown locks then said "Have you got all your school stuff ready?"

"Yep, we're ready to go" Leo said with his mouth full of pancakes.

Jemma playfully smacked his arm. "Fitz, chew your food first" she said. Leo huffed and rolled his eyes but then smiled at Jemma before continuing to stuff his face.

The sound of running footsteps came from the stairs, then Lance and Nat ran in. "Whoa slow down. There's plenty of food for everyone" Phil told them. Nat sat down next to Jemma and Lance sat next to Leo. Phil placed some bacon and scrambled eggs on Nat's plate and Lance grabbed some toast.

I sat down opposite Lance and started to eat the scrambled eggs that Phil had put on a plate for me.


I'd finished breakfast and Skye was still upstairs. I walked over to the stairs and stood on the bottom step. "Skye hurry up, you have to leave in five minutes" I shouted up.

About five seconds after that I heard a door slam, then Skye stormed down the stairs and walked right past me. I followed her as she stormed into the kitchen. She grabbed some toast then stormed out of the kitchen and into the hallway. I heard the front room door slam and sighed.

"Someone's in a mood" Lance teased.

"Lance" I warned as I threw him a glare.

He threw his hands up "What did I do?" he said.

"You know full well what you did. Now just finish your breakfast." I said. Lance grinned before taking a bite of his toast.

"What's wrong with her now" Phil sighed.

"I'll tell you later" I said before pinching the bridge of my nose and shaking my head.

Phil nodded "right you better get going kids" he said.

Leo and Jemma got up and grabbed their backpacks. "Bye mum, bye dad" they both said before walking out of the kitchen and into the hallway. Nat swallowed the last bit of her bacon then got up and did the same.

Lance groaned "aw mum, can't I just stay at home? I hate thursdays" he groaned.

"Of course you can Lance. I'll let you stay home just because you don't like thursdays" I laughed sarcastically.

"Thanks mum" Lance said as he shot me his cheeky grin.

"Nice try, now up you get" I said as I pulled him up out of his chair and herded him into the hallway.

With four of my five kids waiting in the hallway I walked into the front room to get Skye. "Time for school" I told her. Skye just ignored me and continued to stare at the TV which was just playing a news announcement. I walked over to the TV and switched it off. "School, now" I said sternly.

Skye huffed and got up. She walked over to the door and went to walk out. "You and I need to have a serious talk about your attitude when you get home" I told her.

Skye just scoffed "Whatever" she said before she walked out of the front room and slammed the door behind her.
