Finding your soulmate was a rare thing, Even though the world has been romanticizing it for centuries at every turn you make. Some people could have two Soulmates at once, their deep bond being unbreakable between them. You thought you'd never even get close to finding your soulmate, so you buried that hope deep down in your chest a long time ago to avoid getting your heart broken. Especially now that you worked as a nurse on a military base you feel like there was truly no hope left.
Which is why you are wide eyed staring at the two men who stand in the doorway of the nurses office, the both of them staring back at you in just as much shock as you are. Electricity tingling down your spine as the pieces in your soul seem to click together and feel whole for the first time. Its incredible and unlike anything you've ever experienced before, its familiar and bright.
One of the men stands at least a foot taller then the other, a skull mask covering his face. His eyes are wide behind the mask and His fists are balled up like they might shatter. The other man beside him adores a mowhawk with shaved sides, his eyes also wide but theres a small smile slowly starting to apear on his face as he continues to stare at you.
The frozen moment is broken when the man with the skull mask turns around and storms out of the doorway, making his way down the hallway with heavy but quick footsteps. "Ghost!" The man with the mowhawk calls after him, his shoulders slouch when he realizes he isn't coming back. You're silent as you watch, feeling like this isnt real, like that isn't your soulmate standing in front of you right now. After all this time of denying yourself the ability to hope and dream of a future with your soulmate, you now are in the same room as the person who is a part of your soul. And the other piece just ran away from you like the thought of just being in the same room as you burned him.
The man clears his throat to break the silence as he leans on the doorframe to keep his balance "Hes great once you get to know him..." he offers you a bright smile. Finally snapping out of your shocked trance, You realize hes not putting weight on his left leg, the reason he came here in the first place "what happened to your leg?" You walk closer to him, feeling your heartbeat quicken as you approach him, the electricity between you two is undeniable. "Went and banged up my knee pretty badly"
he hisses as puts his weight onto his left leg "reckon you could take a look for me?" Sighing as you grab his arm to put it over your shoulder, trying to ignore how your legs weaken as you touch him, you navigate him to the hospital bed against the wall. Letting him take a seat on the bed, you are now directly in front of him, He looks up at you, his eyes intense, they stay on your face as you purposely avoid eye contact while he takes you in. Eyes trailing over you like hot fire, almost like you could feel the sparks under your skin where his eyes lingered.
"Lift your pant leg up so I can see your knee properly" he smiles cheakly at the effort you're putting into staying professional and rolls his sweatpants leg up past his knee so you can have a better look. Touching his knee gently, he tenses his thigh as he tries not to have a reaction to the pressure. The skin is starting bruise "how did you injure your knee?" You question him, making him scratch the back of his neck as a slight flush on pink covers his cheeks "aye well- I was running on the treadmill and-" he let's out a chuckle before continuing "I tripped over my own foot and went down on the movin treadmill" a smile breaks out onto your face before you could stop it, biting your lip so you don't let out a laugh at the imaginary. "Yeah yeah laugh it up" he rolls his eyes but the smirk on his face made it obvious hes not actually annoyed.
"Im not laughing! Im sure it hurt" then proceed to let out a small laugh before going back to pressing on his knee. "Johnny" he says, you look at him in question "my name. Its Johnny" you hold out your hand for a handshake and tell him your name. He glances down at your out stretched hand with a smirk and a raised eyebrow before encasing both his hands around yours, engulfing it in his warmth
"its a pleasure to finally meet you sweetheart"
Johnny came back for another visit later that week, his knee healing nicely as the purple color starts to fade back to normal and he can now put his weight back on his leg. He sits still on the hospital bed once again, you're trying to ignore how you've been thinking about the two men non stop since their last visit as you press your thumb against his knee. He sits with his legs parted as he rests back on his hands, looking casual and calm as you stand between his legs. Feeling your cheeks heat up at his intense stare and position, His eyes once again trailing over you, but this time it felt more heavy, like he was hesitant to say something.
"id like to apologize on behalf ghost" you look up at him to see him sigh, his eyebrows frown as he continues "hes a stubborn bastard when it comes to his emotions. Hell it took months for him to stop glarin at me" he chuckles at the memory "he will come around eventually. Especially for a birdy like you. Hes just..." he trails off, looking up to the door ghost stormed out of the week prior "guarded" he finishes. A birdy like you? All you felt was rejection from your soulmate named ghost. He looked at you once and decided he wouldn't touch you with a ten foot pole, and it hurt.
Sensing the dip in your mood, he changes the topic. "Ya know we have two more soulmates? Besides ghost" that sparks your intrest immediately. Two more soulmates? What? Do they also work on base? You can't believe you found one soulmate let alone FOUR. Johnny chuckles and nods, now seeing the twinkle of curiosity in your eyes as you take a step closer to his sitting form on the bed "their names are captain price and gaz"
Your eyes go wide at his statement "captain?" His smile only widens at the question before rising to his feet "i gotta get goin. Ya know Duty calls" he pats your shoulder gently "ill see ya around birdy" he says teasingly and winks, but you weren't aware he was cheekily referencing ghost's petnames. He laughs to himself before he walks out the door of the cold office. Eyes lingering where he had left, all you could wonder was:
who was gaz and captain price?
The sound of footsteps getting louder makes you look up to the doorway, a nurse emerges from the hall with his bag tucked under his arm "hey! You're free to go" he smiles as he prepares to take your place while you go on lunch break. Thanking him, you walk out to the hallway and begin making your way towards the kitchen on base. While walking, you think back to what Johnny said.
"Ya know we have two more soulmates? Besides ghost"
You wonder if they work on base too? Would they also turn you away like how ghost did? Maybe he already told them about how vile of a soulmate you were and now they are avoiding you. Its all so overwhelming to think about, especially at work of all places.
Lost in your thoughts, you failed to notice the person emerging around the corner from the other hall, his pace naturally quick as his legs take wide strides around the corner. You are ripped out of your trance when you crash into a hard chest, getting thrown to the floor in the process. "Oh shit! Im so sorry!" A smooth voice rings out above you as he reaches out to help you up, before his movement flatter. Looking up to see who you bumped into, a man stands above you with his lips parted in awe as he stares down at your form on the floor, his hand still out stretched as its frozen in Place, eyes darting across your face.
You are confused until you feel the familiar tingle of electricity shoot up your spine in quick flashes, your heart beating rapidly as you look into this mans eyes. "U-uh..." he stutters, not knowing how to get his words out, before shaking his head and clearing his throat before properly offering his hand to you "here let me help you..." his hand grabs yours, lifting you with ease.
You can feel how warm his palm is, how it fits perfectly around yours. Your chest feels warm and fuzzy at the sight of him. He let's go of your hand once your on your feet, the loss of contact makes the both of you yearn for more. "I should've been looking where I was going. that's my bad" he scratches his neck while he avoids eye contact. His nervousness taking you off guard. Johnny was a ray of sunshine, immediately wanting to be in your bubble and talking to you. While ghost retreated into himself and ran for the hills. But your third soulmate was...bashful almost. His kind smile was calm and refreshing, like a cool breeze on a summer day.
He let's out a small chuckle "soap has been talking so much about you. And now that i finally met you im not sure what to say" your eyebrows frown at the unfamiliar name "soap?" You question. He looks confused before realising his mistake "johnny" you make a quick "oh" then pressed your lips into a line, hes amused at your realization on who soap is. You should've guessed, So they all go by their code names?
you smile as you hold out your hand for a handshake, mimicking the one you gave Johnny when you first met "im y/n" he takes your hand, smiling as he now holds eye contact "kyle. But you can call me gaz" So this is gaz, hes cute. You slightly tighten your grip around his hand "Nice to finally match the name to a face" he smirks "likewise"
the beeping of a phone breaks the tension between you two, making gaz drop your hand to dig his phone out of his pocket. He slightly winces at the contact name, you can briefly see the name "simon" on the caller ID. "I have to go" he says hesitantly, like he doesn't want to end this interaction "but it was nice meeting you darling" he smiles warmly like he truly ment it, before politely nodding at you and continuing his way down the hallway as he answers his phone, now with a prep in his step, hearing his voice talking to the person on the phone as he walks further away.
You let out a breath, butterflies fluttering in your stomach as you continue walking to the kitchen. You've now met 3 out of the 4. The 4th one being a captain. Nervousness builds in your chest, oh god.
You're not able to get yesterday out of your mind as you worked, thoughts of how bizarre it is to be meeting all your soulmates out of no where swirl around in your head, and you have yet to meet one of them. "i think im going to take my lunch break" you say to the other nurse sharing the work shift with you. She nods and goes back to reading her magazine.
While making your way to the kitchen once again, you are anxious about bumping into one of them again. The feelings from simply holding eye contact is breathtaking. Now successfully making it to the kitchen without a soulmate in sight, you let out of breath of relief. Now you can have your tea in peace. Opening the cabinet above you, you pull out a flavored tea bag from one of the boxes the military base provides, holding it in your hand as you open another cabinet next to it.
Reaching up for one of the last mug sitting on the top self, you struggle to touch it. Standing up on your tippy toes, you still are not able to reach it, it taunts you as it sits high up on the self. Huffing out a irritated sigh as you stare up at the cups with annoyance. A strong spark going down your spine takes you off guard, before a gloved hand comes into your vision, plucking a mug right off the shelf with ease. Turning your head to see who crept up behind you, a skull mask is hovering over you as he stares down at you. His glare is icey as it pierces through you, his body extremely close to yours as he lingers behind you, pretty much caging you in between the counter and him.
He holds eye contact as he sets the cup down on the counter in front of you, like hes trying to intimidate you. He let's out a quiet rumble that sounded almost like a small growl, before slowly backing away from you. His tall figure stalking out the kitchen like his purpose of being there in the first place was to intimidate you then leave. Keeping your gaze on the entrance, your stunned at the interaction, he hadn't said a single word to you.
Looking down at the mug, you notice its a baby pink color with cute bunny faces on it. Your lips slightly quirk up without you realizing it. Using pink bunny mugs and silent glares as a intimation tactic isn't very scary.
Loud voices echo throughout the halls of the base as they grow closer to the nurses office, booming through the doorway, making you immediately stand up in alert. Four men rush through the door, three of which you recognize, and one who you haven't seen before. both Johnny and gaz are on either side of ghost as they hold up his heavy frame, trying to keep him on his feet as hes unconscious from blood loss. The other man beside them holds authority as he motions the two men carrying ghost towards the hospital bed against the wall with a firm voice. They lift ghost up onto the bed gently, being mindful of his injury. The man you don't recognize finally turns to you
"he has a gunshot wound-" he goes to speak but abruptly stops once he catches your eyes, making his throat go dry from the sparks raging in his body as he looks at you. He quickly clears his throat and continues "gunshot wound in his shoulder. He passed out due to blood loss in the helicopter on the ride back" he manages to stay professional even though his eyes seem darker then a few moments ago, unable to leave your form. Shaking your head, trying to brush off the fireworks in your chest and way his gaze is following your every move makes your cheeks heat up. You hurriedly rush over to ghost who is laying soundlessly on the bed, dragging along a metal rolling table of tools behind you.
Switching into professional mode, you unlatch his tactical vest and with the help of Johnny, he slightly lifts ghost up so you could slide the fabric out from underneath him. Before taking a pare of scissors from the metal tray and cutting open his shirt to reveal the wound. While looking over the bloodied wound as you put on a pare of gloves, you feel worry clouding your mind as you stare at your soulmate laying unconscious on the bed.
"Did the bullet exit?" You ask, making who you assume is captain price speak up "im not sure. The bullet still could be in the wound" he sounded closer than you thought, turning around to face him confirms that theory. Hes hovering over your shoulder watching you work on ghost, unable to stop himself from keeping a close eye on him. He looks down at you, realising how close he is to you before taking a few steps back "sorry..." he clears his throat again. Gaz glasps a hand on his shoulder with a soft smile on his face "he will be alright cap"
After awhile of patching up the wound, it was finally bandaged and done. Ghost was still unconscious on the hospital bed, his chest rising with each breath slowly. As you put away the rolling table of tools and sanitized everything, Johnny rests his palm on ghosts masked face, stroking his thumb over the fabric where his cheek is. Hes only wearing his balaclava without the skull mask on top, letting you see part of his face more properly for the first time. Trying to not stare at the men, you busy yourself with putting away the tools instead. Until you feel a large hand touch your shoulder. Turning around, you're met with captain price. You get the familiar feeling of sparks and nervousness blooming inside of you.
"Good work. You did good" hes trying to remain professional as a captain but hes obviously failing at he takes you in properly for the first time, unable to stop his head from slightly tilting in amusement at the way you avoid eye contact, you're now feeling sudden butterflies in your stomach at the praise "Oh! thank you" He smiles fondly at the nervousness you're displaying, already smitten by you, he could just eat you up. being soulmates with a captain is so nerve wracking. you feel the prying eyes of the other two men as they watch the interaction, smirking as they exchanged a look.
"Names John price" he extends his hand out professionally, engulfing yours as you meet his with your own hand. You tell him your name with a small smile, making him nod his head "nice to meet you sweetheart" letting your hand linger in his before letting go. "Captain we gotta get back" gaz breaks the moment between you two, making price nod at him. His eyes moves to ghost for a few moments, then let's himself find you again.
"until next time" he smiles at you then turns around to walk towards the door. Johnny winks at you and bids his goodbye "ill be back later baby" his out right flirting makes your cheeks burn as he walks out through the door. Gaz chuckles "bye honey" and with that they were all gone. Leaving you flustered at their petnames. They obviously knew what it did to you.
Biting your lip to conceal a smile, you can't believe you have now met all of them, they all give you a roller-coaster of emotions, Always leaving your skin hot and your heart pounding with excitement. The sound of a low groan breaks you from your internal dialog, Making you turn around to see ghost slowly shifting around as he groans from pain.
Rushing over you quickly put a hand on his bicep "don't move to much-" you are cut off by him quickly grabbing your arm roughly and pulling you towards him, making you fall onto the bed, hitting your knee on the cold metal frame in the process "ouch!" You're now hovering over him as you catch yourself from nose diving into his face.
His eyes open in alert as he blinks, finally realizing its you who touched him. He looks around the room before he comes back to you, his gaze falling to his tight grip around your arm. His hand immediately falls away from your arm as if it burned him. Letting you get up off of him, hissing in pain as you put your weight on the knee that hit the metal. He tries to sit up as he looks at you with something that close to regret and dread. But groans as pain shoots through his shoulder "Fuck" he curses. At the pain and at himself for hurting you.
"Stop moving" you say as he tries to get up again. He finally let's himself fall back into the mattress with a irritated sigh. You step closer Hesitantly, afraid of triggering him again. He notices and pauses. "come 'ere" his voice rumbles lowly as he watches you closely. You approach him slowly. Glancing at the bandaged wound before meeting his eyes. They hold a sense of regret within them, mixed with something much deeper. Now standing at the edge of his bed, his eyes roam your face for any discomfort.
When he sees none, he reaches out his hand to gently touch your knee, letting his palm cover it as he rubs his thumb across it, then he peers to your arm, he frowns "im...sorry" the apology is foreign in his mouth, letting it sit in the air as he looks away, retracting his hand in the process. The two words are heavy, like hes apologizing for more then just grabbing you. You offer him a soft smile "i know"
Those were all the words exchanged while you rebandaged his wound. Him staying quiet as you worked. But his heavy stare never left you, making your body feel like it was boiling hot. He never broke eye contact if you looked up, you being the one to turn away first. Its like hes pinning you in place with just a look. Finishing up rewrapping his bandage, you finally meet his piercing stare, he holds it. Much like how he did in the kitchen a few days prior, but this time much softer. "Thank you" he says quietly, his deep voice sending electricity up your back.
The way hes not pushing you away and letting you stay close to him gives you hope, that just maybe he's warming up to you just like Johnny said he would.
