'Cause I don't wanna know
If I can't see the sun
Maybe I should go
Don't wake me 'cause I'm dreaming
Of angels on the moon
Where everyone you know never leaves too soon
You can tell me all your thoughts
About the stars that fill polluted skies
And show me where you run to
When no one's left to take your side
But don't tell me where the road ends
'Cause I just don't wanna know
I felt a warm hand on my shoulder before I looked up to find Grant Ward staring down at me looking like every dirty dream I've ever had, but more than that a warmth fills me and I know I'm safe. My brain wants to tell me to be cautious, but I'm just so tired. And... Part of me needs him to be my hero one more time.
"Simmons? Jemma, can you hear me? I'm gonna clean and bandage your wounds now. It's gonna sting, but it'll be over soon, okay Sweetheart?"
I blink for a long moment before nodding. I mentally push away the memories of Maveth and that creature. Tears sting my eyes as I realize with a shock that I never checked to see if it left something in me or damaged me in some way.
"Grant... I-I need a doctor. I have to make sure IT didn't leave anything in me. Ihavetobesure. Ineedarapekit."
I start shaking and stuttering, after he's bandaged my hands I collapse in gut wrenching sobs.
