Not “where.” When.
(Fantastic Four Volume 3 #504)
A life with the Simon Riley. Life would be great right? Only if he actually acknowledged you. He always just grunts an answers or stares at you when you talk to him. When he actually does respond, it’s always in a firm and cold tone. You tried to make him loosen up his tough demeanor but you gave up and got used to it quickly.
Today, you visited the base to help around like you sometimes did. Soap, Price, Gaz, and Ghost returned from a mission exhausted. Simon wasn’t expecting you to be there. So when he entered the common room, he was chuckling to a joke Soap said. Chuckling? Since when did he chuckle? He froze and went back to his cold demeanor once he noticed you.
Soap: “Aye! Lass/Lad! Good t ‘see ya here again!”
You smiled in response and continued with cleaning up the common room. Ghost was clearly irritated with your presence. You could feel a hole burning into the back of your head as he continued to stare you down.
Price: “We’re about to head out to get some beer, you gonna come with Y/n”
Y/n: “Nah, I’m good. Thanks though.”
Price: “If ya insist love, don’t hesitate to join us though.”
You noticed out of the corner of your eye, Ghost gripped the edge of his seat by Price calling you “love”. So you decided to mess with Simon a little.
Y/n: “I’m alright dear, I’ll just stay and clean here.”
Ghost suddenly stood up
Ghost: “You lads go on ahead, I’m gonna stay ‘ere with Y/n…”
When the group left, he suddenly stood up.
Ghost: “What the FUCK was that Y/n!?”
Y/n: “What?”
Ghost: “Why the hell did you call him dear?”
Y/n: “Why do you care? It’s not like you would ever call me that-“
Ghost: “ENOUGH! I’ve had it with your stupid fucking behavior!”
You froze. He’s never lashed out before. You wanted to speak back but you felt this lump in your throat. Like barbed wire was strangling your neck…Tears threatened to spill from your eyes. You choked out your words.
Y/n: “Fine…”
You left him alone. His eyes widened with realization and he froze. He…shouldn’t have done that. Why did he have to be so stupid? He ran after you.
Ghost: “Y/N! Wait! I was stupid! Please..”
You froze. He never apologized to you before…No…not once has he ever apologized…That’s when he hugged you from behind and whispered into your ear.
Ghost: “I’m so sorry luv…I shouldn’t have been such an ass…I promise, I’ll treat you better.“
You shuttered. This was the first time he’s ever hugged you… Not to mention how soft his tone was.. He spun you around and he slowly lifted up his mask just enough to show his under side of the face up to his nose. He leaned in…You couldn’t stop him and you both kissed.
Soap: “Aye! We’re back- BLOODY H-“
Price whacked him hard to shut him up and let you two have your moment.
You both detached immediately the moment you both saw them.
Gaz: “What did we miss?…”
Ghost: “Nothing. Absolutely nothing.”
He winked at you as you all went back to the common room, his arm wrapped around your waist..holding you close.
' . . . I told you you must not return. I meant ever.' 'Ever is a long time . . . '
Mary Balogh, from The Secret Pearl
I'm expecting you at my door, flowers in hand, that winning smile of yours meant just for me. I'm expecting your hand extended for mine. I'm expecting your words said so softly that they could only be meant for me. I'm expecting love from you. I'm expecting kisses. I'm expecting your eyes to search for mine every single day and find me there. I'm expecting us to find each other. I'm expecting us together in every universe. I'm expecting this story to finally begin right out of the ashes of what once was. I'm expecting to write to you my whole life. I'm expecting so much for us that I cannot even fathom the extent of it just yet. I'm expecting to tell you someday.
