Simon "Ghost" Riley -
The coffee didn't matter, blocking most of his mates didn't matter. What mattered is that you've sent him something that made his jaw drop.
Established Relationship! Y'all r a couple😻
Setting:
The pre-dawn light seeped through the reinforced, grimy windows of Ghost’s current safehouse – a Spartan, concrete box on the outskirts of London. The air smelled of gun oil, stale coffee grounds, and the faint, lingering tang of ozone from overworked electronics. A chipped mug steamed on the scarred metal table beside a disassembled .45, its parts gleaming under the harsh glow of a single work lamp. Ghost hunched over it, bare-knuckled fingers moving with lethal precision, reassembling the pistol blindfolded by habit. His skull balaclava was pulled down just below his nose, revealing the grim set of his mouth and the shadowed hollows beneath his eyes. His phone lay face-down beside the mug, vibrating intermittently like an angry hornet against the metal.

The coffee – his third cup of tar-black sludge brewed in an ancient percolator – was already forgotten, a necessary fuel injection rather than a pleasure. His phone buzzed again, insistent. With a grunt muffled by the fabric covering his jaw, he flipped it over without looking. Gaz’s name flashed. Again. Price had called twice already. Soap had sent three increasingly absurd memes involving suspiciously familiar-looking Shetland ponies in tactical gear. Ghost’s thumb moved with the same lethal efficiency as it did on the pistol slide. Block. Block. Block. A soldier’s peace was hard-won, and he guarded it fiercely, even from his own team. Their chatter could wait for the op briefing later. Right now, the only sound he wanted was the satisfying snick-click of metal locking home.
His phone lit up once more. Not a call. A message notification. Your name. A flicker of something – annoyance? anticipation? – crossed his visible features. Five months. Five months of navigating the minefield of… whatever this was. Vulnerability felt like faulty wiring, liable to spark and burn. He hesitated, thumb hovering. Then he tapped.
It wasn’t text. It was an image. He opened it.
His hands froze mid-movement on the pistol. The slide slipped from his fingers, clattering loudly onto the table, forgotten. The chipped mug wobbled precariously, threatening to baptize the .45 in lukewarm bitterness.
His jaw – the visible part beneath the mask – went slack. Not a flinch, not a scowl. A genuine, unguarded drop. His breath hitched, a sharp, audible intake that cut through the safehouse silence like a gunshot. The image on the screen wasn't classified intel. It wasn't a threat assessment. It wasn't even one of Soap’s damned ponies.
It was a photograph. Of you.
Sunlight in hair that hadn't yet darkened to its current shadow, a tentative smile directed at the camera, eyes wide with a hope that hadn't been crushed yet.
The mug finally tipped, spilling coffee across the table. He didn’t notice. The blocked notifications, the half-assembled pistol, the looming mission briefing – it all evaporated. The reinforced walls of the safehouse seemed to dissolve. The only solid thing in his world was the tiny, glowing rectangle in his hand, showing a version of Simon Riley he’d buried so deep he’d almost convinced himself it never existed.
A low, disbelieving sound escaped him, something between a choked gasp and a strangled laugh. He lifted his free hand, fingers trembling almost imperceptibly, not towards the spilled coffee or the gun, but instinctively towards the edge of his balaclava, as if needing to physically ensure the mask was still there, still shielding the raw shock etched onto his face beneath it. His jaw remained firmly dropped, the lower half of the mask hanging slightly loose, catching on his stubbled chin. The coffee didn't matter. Blocking his mates definitely didn't matter. All that mattered was the impossible beauty on the screen, and the person who’d somehow unearthed him.
