Alright so I lied about when I was going to upload this but my english teacher decided she would give us our final assessment :( I've finished it now and I'm back into writing :D
So here it is, please enjoy and R&R!
Ghost opened the door to the Rec room when he heard the knock. He looked out into the corridor but he didn't see anyone. Then all of a sudden there was a screech and he was on the floor with pie dripping off his mask.
"Boom, headshot!" Eagle soon appeared from nowhere and she danced around him and into the room.
"Kayla, you're so fucken dead."
When the other guys heard what Ghost had just said they all tried to rush out the door but they stopped when Ghost uttered curses at them and sulked off somewhere to shower or whatever he was going to do.
I needed to get Ghost pissed off with me. It was the only way, because I don't want to share a room with him. Our mission is tomorrow and I want to get some sleep. The guys then all turned to me waiting for an explanation.
"Err…. He might kill me, I think?"
"You think?"
"Yeah bro,"
Scarecrow face-palmed. I walk over to the fridge and pull out a soda. I open it and soda goes EVERYWHERE!
I shrug and walk over to the pool table
"You going to clean your mess up?"
"Nah. You can if you want 'Tav."
MacTavish returned to another magazine of his. Who knows where he gets them from, probably safer not asking.
I pull a chair up to the pool table and watch the guys play. It hadn't crossed my mind until right then that the person I trust my life with tomorrow is currently planning my murder. Then it didn't occur to me that I should go to bed so I ended up staying up until Soap ushered me to my room. I didn't see Ghost so when he grabbed me and pushed me to the wall I was shocked. He didn't have his mask on and he was smirking.
I decide to break the silence, "What?"
He rolls his eyes "You know what."
"Nyet. I do not!"
He continued to hold me against the wall, not too hard and not too soft so I could get away. I could tell he wasn't going to kill me…yet or he wasn't going down that road.
"You know, we both know what we're talking about here."
"Right," I say, "We're talking about pie. Yum."
He gives up and lets go of me. "Whatever." He walks over to the spare bed. How the hell he knows that's where I'm going to let him sleep is a mystery. I walk over to my bed and untie my hair. I crawl under the covers and roll over so my back is turned to Ghost. He chuckles and mutters 'Goodnight.' I return the 'goodnight' with a bird.
I must've dozed off because when I woke Ghost was in the spare bed fiddling with something. Through the night I couldn't see it. I think he saw I was awake because he came over and kneeled down by the edge of the bed, "Eagle, wakey wakey."
"Ugh, fuck off. Let me sleep."
"No really," I look at him, he's removed that skull mask. I could've sworn I'd stitched it to his face, HA! "We've got about an hour before we should get up."
"So, let me have an hours sleep. Da?" Ghost flings the covers off of me with his free hand. I curl up into a ball to try to keep warm.
"GHOST! FUCK OFF!"
He puts down what ever he was holding and grabs my ankles.
"Don't you dare," I hiss, "I really will kill you."
"Cool story bro." I see a smirk grow bigger and bigger. Then he starts to haul me off of the bed by my feet. I squeal and attempt to grab the sheets but I had fitted them too tight and couldn't get a handhold.
Once he dragged me onto the floor he dragged me under the windowsill where the only light was coming in. There he walked over to the other side of the room and grabbed my reading chair. He picked up what ever it was and brought the chair up in front of me. There he sat and looked at me. I started rubbing sleep out of my eyes then I adjusted the legs of my tracksuit pants and my socks.
"Are you finished now?"
I nod.
"Good, now what the fuck is this?" He holds up the object. In the half-light I can tell it's my teddy.
"Oh my GOD!" I leap up and steal the teddy from him. "Teddy! Where have you been?" I hug the bear to my chest.
"What…. the…. fuck?"
I stop and slowly turn to him. "Dad gave it to me when I was five, and I…" I stifle a sob. I can see the confusion on his face. I slum to the ground.
"Your father was Sandman right?"
"Yeah, he was a cool guy…"
"You know, I worked with him."
"You went on that* mission…didn't you?"
"Yeah, my squad did everything we could-"
"If you did I would still have my father, a normal life and Harrison wouldn't have had to be the man of the house!"
"Look, Kayla-"
"Don't 'look' me Simon." He shimmies down next to me
"Kayla, I don't know much about you and your father. But, I do know that I'll be here for you." He gently grabs my head in his hands as he speaks "And I promise my life on it that I won't let anything or anyone harm you."
He moves a lock of hair off my face and he leans into me. My heart beats faster and I felt it skip a beat as Ghosts' lips touched mine.
