Hello :)
This story is a sequel from Curiosity killed the cat, I thought that story had a good finish and that it needed to end there because of Ghost taking such a step he did with Roach but I had noticed that I really did start the Mw2 storyline with the mission cliffhanger so I decided to carry it on with another story, so its still about Roach and Ghost all the drama they go through as well as the Mw2 missions.
I don't know if you would need to read Curiosity killed the cat to understand this one, it may help to understand there relationship a bit more but its up to you.
Hope you enjoy and have a great day :)
Roach was lying in bed, looking up at the ceiling. He was thinking about the past two months; him and Ghost had been pretty good. Of course, they still argued and disagreed about things, but Roach couldn't be happier. He loved being with Ghost, he loved waking up next to him, and he loved falling asleep in Ghost's arms. Roach's door slowly opened as Ghost made his way in.
Roach sat up as Ghost sat down on the bed, "You okay?" Ghost asked, with a small smile.
"Yeah, I'm great. You?" Roach couldn't help the big grin on his face, causing Ghost to smirk, "Why so happy?"
"I don't know, I just feel really good." Roach shrugged, thinking about his and Ghost relationship had just put him in a really good mood.
It had been so hard at times, but he knew it was all worth it, that he loved the man sitting next to him more than anything, and that was the reason for the big stupid grin on his face.
Roach was just release from the infirmary, and he couldn't be happier. He was so sick of seeing the same room every day. He did leave a few of times, to go on a walk, but Ghost would always be there, making sure he was safe. Roach loved it, but Ghost never let him stay away from the hospital too long, scared Roach would hurt himself. Roach walked into his room, smelling his own sweet scent. Oh, how he missed the smell of moulding food and B.O. Roach narrowed his eyes as he sniffed the smell of B.O. It seemed ten times stronger than normal. He lifted up his arm and sniffed under his arm; his head flew back from the smell. It was vile! He then remembered, he hadn't had a shower since he had been in the hospital; how he had only smelled it now was a mystery to him. Roach got his towels and got ready to go take a shower. He was just about to open his door, when it swung open, Ghost standing there with a smile on his face. Ghost pushed past Roach and made his way into the room, collapsing on the bed, "Where you going?"
Roach sighed, shaking his head at Ghost actions, "For a shower. I'll be back in a minute, if you want to wait here?"
A mischievous smile appeared on Ghost's face, "A shower?"
"Yes." Roach half smiled, as he imagined the same idea as Ghost.
"We...could..." Ghost got off the bed and made his way towards Roach, "You...know."
Roach stood there, with raised brows and a half smile, watching Ghost make his way over to him, the way he walked made Roach want him, "It has been a while."
"Yes, it has." Ghost spoke the words softly, as he wrapped his arms around Roach's hips, pulling their bodies together. He put his mouth close to Roach's ear, as he whispered the words, "What do you say?"
From just Ghost's words, Roach's breathing had hitched, "I say...yes." The two made their way to the showers, and walking in, Ghost pushed Roach up against the lockers. Roach smirked, "Not so worried about me anymore?"
Ghost let a small smirk out as he sucked at Roach's neck, but didn't answer him, as his hands made their way up Roach's shirt, feeling the muscles flex from his touch. Roach gasped from the coldness of Ghost's hands, but he didn't want them to be removed, he couldn't remember the last time the two got to do something like this. Roach was pulling and tugging on Ghost's hair, it had been so long and he needed this. Just as things were heating up, they heard voices on the other side of the door. Roach looked up at Ghost with a worried look, and Ghost backed away and stood by a locker, acting like he was shoving something in it, while Roach stood looking at the door. When it opened, Meat and Worm walked in. "Hey, guys." Worm said, with a nod while Meat walked in, with just a simple nod.
When the two made their way in to the showers, Ghost turned around to face Roach, "Sorry." Ghost mouthed the words, and Roach just returned with a soft smile and made his way into the showers, as Ghost left.
Ghost was sitting at his desk, doing some paper work MacTavish had given him, when he heard a knock at the door. Getting up, he was surprised when he opened the door, to see Roach standing there, dripping wet, with just a towel around his waist. Roach narrowed his eyes when Ghost stood there, just staring at him.
He sighed loudly, waving his hand in front of Ghost's face, "You gonna let me in?"
Ghost shook his head, "Oh, ermmm, yeah...come in."
Roach laughed, he didn't think it would catch Ghost so of guard, "You like?"
Ghost nodded his head, with a smirk, "Yeah, but there is just one problem." Ghost walked over to Roach and pulled off the towel, "That's much better."
Ghost placed a hand around Roach's neck and pulled their lips together, in an all-needy kiss, making their way over to the bed. Roach fell, as the back of his knees made contact with the frame of the bed. Ghost lay on top as he positioned himself between Roach's legs.
Roach sat there, smiling about the memory, causing a strange look from Ghost, "What are you smiling about?"
Roach shook his head, "I'm just thinking." He leaned up and gave Ghost a quick little peck.
Ghost playful rolled his eyes, "Well, you want to go for diner?"
Roach looked at the clock on his bedside table, seeing it was 1800, "Yeah, sure."
The two made their way to the mess hall, which was already pretty much packed. Lining up behind Toad and Archer, Roach tried to see what was being served.
"You're so impatient." Ghost said, as he watched Roach.
"I just want to know what's being served."
"We'll be there soon, just wait."
"But, if I wait until we're there, I'll be taking forever to decide on what to have."
Ghost, again, rolled his eyes as Roach carried on, trying to see what was being severed. Toad narrowed his eyes, as he looked at Archer, who just raised his brows; Toad gave a little look, indicating to the people behind them. Archer, still not understanding what Toad was trying to say, Toad gave up sighing. When Archer and Toad had gotten their food, they made their way over to the table, where they sat with Worm and Royce, who were in a deep discussion about guns. Archer watched Toad carefully, who seemed to be miles away. He leaned over and talked quietly, so the others couldn't hear him, "What's up with you?"
Archer's question made Toad jump a little, but it got his attention, "Nothing."
Toad shook his head, but it was clear to Archer something was bothering him. The two were sniping partners, he could read the man like the back of his own hand, "I know you dude. Come on, what's wrong?"
Archer still spoke quietly, making sure no one could hear him. Toad sighed, "I just think sometimes..." Toad didn't know what to say, he knew what he wanted to say, but he couldn't find a way to word it right.
"Think about what?" Archer was intrigued by what his friend was on about, and didn't want to let it go until he found out what was going on. The two stopped, as they heard a loud laugh come from the table at the other end of the room. Looking over, they saw Roach laughing his head off, while he sat at a table with Ghost. This caused Toad to narrow his eyes, which Archer noticed, "Does this have something to do with Roach or Ghost? Or both?"
Toad shook his head, "The two just seem so...close." Toad felt as if the word 'close' wasn't right, but used it anyway, as he couldn't think of anything else.
"Close?"
"Yeah, I mean, they are always together lately. When there's free time, it just like...after Roach got hurt that time...Ghost is always by his side."
Archer smirked.
"What?" Toad protested, he didn't need Archer taking the piss.
"You know Ghost has a soft spot for that kid. Come on. most people do; just something about him. Ghost probably feels a bit protective, after what happened."
Toad looked over at the two laughing, narrowing his eyes. He didn't believe it, but he didn't want to seem like some freak that thought more of the twos friendship, "Yeah, you're probably right." So instead, he lied and agreed.
Roach quietly opened his door, looking up and down the corridor. When he saw it was clear, he made a run for Ghost's room, quickly opening the door and running in. Ghost was lying on the bed and smiled at Roach running in, "You panic too much."
Roach sighed, shaking his head, "I don't feel like having somebody find out about us."
Down the corridor, walking through the door, holding a glass off water, stood Toad. He heard a door opening and stood there, looking around. He narrowed his eyes when he saw Roach make his way out. Watching him carefully, Toad's mouth fell open, eyes wide when he saw Roach run into Ghost's room.
Ghost sat up on the bed as he reached out and grabbed Roach's hand, pulling him down on the bed, "We're careful, nobody's gonna find out." Ghost smirked, he had somehow gotten Roach under him. He leaned down and softly kissed Roach's neck, "You think that, but we will, if we're not careful."
Ghost stopped, sighing. Roach always panicked about this, and Ghost didn't understand why. They had been together for almost 6 months, and the guy still worried. Ghost knew that Roach wouldn't do anything, now that this was on his mind, so Ghost got off Roach and lay by his side. Roach rolled over so he was on his side, facing Ghost, "Don't you ever worry about it?"
Ghost turned to face Roach, "Sometimes...but I don't let it play on my mind too much, because then this happens."
"What happens?" Roach says, narrowing his eyes.
Ghost sighed, then covered his face with his hand, hoping to avoided the question, but it didn't work, as Roach pulled on Ghost's arm, removing the hand, "Come on, Ghost."
Ghost had a little small smile, "You freak out, and then you start asking questions, as in 'is this relationship normal', 'am I normal', you get depressed about being gay...I hate seeing you like that, and I try so hard to help, but you never want me near you."
Roach saw the sadness in Ghost's eyes, and he hated it. Roach placed his head on Ghost's chest, and wrapped his arms around him, "I'm sorry. It's hard sometimes, and it scares me what they'll say if they find out."
Ghost started stroking his hand through Roach's hair, "I think they'll understand."
Roach looked up at Ghost, with raised brows, "You really think so?" The shock was clear in Roach's voice.
Ghost smiled and nodded, "I really do...I don't think we should just go around telling them, but if they ever did find out, then I don't think they'll care as much as you think they will."
Roach gave Ghost a soft smile before he lay his head back down on his chest, "I hope so."
It wasn't long until Roach had fallen asleep, as Ghost lay there looking out the window, up at the full moon and the starry sky. To be honest, he was terrified of what the others would say, but he didn't want Roach to keep panicking all the time, so instead he lied.
Also a little note that the italic writing is flashbacks and memories.
