Washington whistled when he saw Grif’s orange armored figure walking into the Training camp area. “Well, well. Look who’s decided to grace us with his presence,” he said.
“Why are we even here? We’re captains...” Simmons wondered and he walked up to Washington. Washington made a face at him.
“Why are you-” he looked at Grif. “What? Why would I be the only Captain who’s being yelled at for not coming? Simmons never had to come...” he paused, looking at Simmons. “ Right? “
“ ...Right. That seems unfair, Washington.”
“ ... You have a point,” Washington said as he rolled his shoulders. “ Okay, Take it off. “
“ Ex-Excuse?” Simmons was obviously bright red under his helmet.
“ We aren’t wearing Armor today.”
“ Oh!” Simmons sputtered. Washington raised an eyebrow at him and laughed.
“ Grif, Can-” Washington stopped for a moment.
Grif had already taken off all of his armor and placed it in one of the empty lockers. His arms were a bit wide but they were riddled with somewhat defined muscles. Washington had not been expecting that.
Simmons looked at Washington and scoffed. “ Wait til you see his face,” he mumbled nonchalantly. Sure enough, The helmet came off and hair unraveled around his face. Washington, who had just recovered from the fact that Lazy Orange guy Grif was ripped, froze yet again. Grif’s hair flopped down, the short, springy curls framed his face.
Most assumed that Grif would be ugly or unkempt but none of them were expecting Grif to look...
“ He’s handsome?” Bitters squeaked out. Matthews smirked at him. “ I told you. Why are you surprised?” he wondered, nudging his best friend’s shoulder with his elbow.
Simmons did his best to seem unbothered by the appearance of Grif’s handsome face and strong chin. But internally, he was just as freaked out as the rest of them.
“ Grif...” he hissed. Grif lifted his chin up and looked at him. “ WHAT THE FUCK?” Simmons hissed.
Grif tilted his head and pursed his lip.
Simmons thought ‘Oh, I hate him’ and groaned in exasperation. “ YOU CUT YOUR HAIR!” Simmons shouted.
Everyone suddenly stared at Simmons.
“Wait, So Captain Grif could have looked hotter?” Volleyball Hottie asked, scrunching up her beautiful face.
“ Oh... uh. Yeah? It was too hot for me to keep it long and we didn’t have indoor plumbing on the crash site so... It got really tangled.” Grif was rambling. That was a bad sign.
“ ... We need to talk later,” Simmons muttered. Grif raised an eyebrow.
“ Really? Are you that mad about my hair? Should I have tied it in a bow and gifted it to you, Weirdo?”
“ Ugh. It’s not about the HAIR, Grif! “
Washington’s expression clearly showed that he had grown accustomed to Grif and Simmons’s ‘ playful banter’ to the point where he phased it out. Grif huffed as he was called on immediately after Washington explained the basic schedule today.
“ Of course, it’s me,” he grumbled. Matthews stepped over to him. “Sir, Will you be alright? I would be happy to take your spot for you,” he said in an overly eager tone. Simmons’s face scrunched up and Matthews glanced over at him with a wounded look. Simmons blinked as he (apparently )forgot that his face was not cloaked under a helmet, “Uhn...”
“ Wow, Matthews. I thought you had more faith in me than that.” Grif chided him. Matthews flushed and looked down.
“Sorry, Sir. Of course, I have the most faith in you.” he was staring at Grif’s exposed arms now. Simmons scowled at this. Bitters who was behind Matthews shot the Captain a questioning look. Simmons looked like he had been caught committing some crime and stepped away from Grif. Grif did not know this was happening. He strolled up to Washington and huffed.
“ Okay, Captain Grif. I figured that since you’re the Captain then I should put it on the advanced level. “ Washington had a smirk on his face. Grif rolled his eyes. “ Not high enough, David,” he said. David aka Washington shot him a look and he laughed. Grif shrugged, “ Fine. Learn the hard way...” he grumbled.
About thirty minutes later, Grif strolled out of the other side. “ See, Easy,” he said. Everyone collectively closed their mouths and mumbled to each other.
” Huh? I guess I need to make it harder.” Washington muttered. “... How...did you get the idea to scale the wall to avoid the guns?”
” Eh? What has no one else tried that? “ Grif raised his eyebrow and looked over at Washington.
” He grew up in the Circus... OF course, climbing was his first thought.” Simmons grumbled. Washington’s eyes widened. He looked over at Simmons. Grif squinted at Simmons and mouthed something that made Simmons shrink back.
” You knew...and you didn’t think to tell me? “ Washington asked. ”... I was sworn to Silence, Sir.” Washington closed his eyes and sighed in annoyance.
” Oh...I get the feeling we’ve made a huge mistake.” Bitters mumbled.
” Wasn’t Captain Grif supposed to be lazy?” Andersmith said, everyone looked at Matthews. ” Well, maybe but he’s been secretly training for weeks,” Mathews said. He suddenly let out a sharp gasp. “ I wasn’t supposed to say that. Oh nooo,” he looked at Bitters with a concerned look.
” Do you mean the time he got you to deliver food to his room?” Bitters asked. Matthews pouted at him and Bitters huffed.
“I can’t believe you guys thought jumping him was going to end well for you,” Simmons grumbled as he walked up to them. “ He’s going to make it our problem now that he’s being forced to show off what he’s actually capable of. “
“Do you think he would stop coming if we bribed him?” Bitters asked. Simmons paused to consider it and shrugged his shoulders.
“Okay, Bitters. Matthews. You’re up next. Let’s see if you can beat your Captain’s time.
So, I had a dream last night where it was the most recent season of RvB15, and Grif and Wash were laying on the grass and chilling. Then they both took off their helmets and kissed. Man, I really love my shipping brain.
Whenever someone talks about Washingrif I think of that scene where Wash is making the other soldiers run laps because of his bad behavior so they all attack Grif and I image it's a really ass-backwards and childish way of Wash trying to flirt with him because he's utterly hopeless and has no idea how to come on to him right
He’s doing it so that he can help put ice on his bruises later and take care of him
Wash didn’t say anything for the longest time about his crush on Grif cause he was convinced Grif and Simmons were married and he’s no homewrecker. Then one day he overheard Simmons teasing Grif about having a crush on Wash and he was like “wait what”.
Turns out they weren’t actually a thing after all! Wash immediately went and made his move because cute squishy Hawaiian boys with mutual crushes don’t come along every dynasty, you know.
