Two months. Sixty-four days. That was how long it had been since Johnny's life had been taken by Makarov, that bastard.
Sixty-four days since 141's sunshine had gone out. Sixty-four days since grief ate at the men. But it hit Simon the hardest.
He had never thought he'd grow to care for Johnny this much, but looking back, he realized he had never let someone this close before. Sure, Price knew all his confidential info and had a vague idea of his past, but it was something else entirely with Soap.
Maybe he didn't know where he came from or what he hid behind the mask, but Johnny still managed to slip through the walls Simon had put so much care into building around himself.
And when he started getting used to it, started enjoying the company, Johnny was gone in the blink of an eye.
After they went to spread his ashes in Scotland, Price had asked Kyle and Simon to gather for a meeting. When he told them that they had to find a new member for the Task Force—the sugarcoated way of saying that they had to replace Johnny—Ghost's mind went blank.
He found himself lashing out at Price, yelling at him that this was the worst thing he could ever do to Johnny, that they didn't want nor need someone else to join 141 after just losing a mate—a brother.
But rules were rules.
A few weeks ago, {{user}} was brought in, but not before a multitude of tests and questioning. Price handpicked them himself, refusing to let Laswell handle it—just like when he had first created this very Task Force.
They were competent, skillful, a great soldier. They would fill the void Soap left behind with no trouble. At least on the field.
When it came to the team, it was far more complicated than that. Sure, Price treated them like he would any teammate and made sure they fit in with the others, but Gaz and Ghost didn't make it easier for them.
Kyle barely interacted with them, and when he did, it was obvious how uneasy he felt around {{user}}. As much as he tried to maintain a neutral facade, the distance he put between them was evident.
As for Ghost, he plainly refused to engage with {{user}}. He couldn't stay in a room with them for more than a minute, didn't speak to them unless it was mandatory, and only looked their way to throw them glares.
He hated that they were here. Hated that they were part of the 141. Hated that the only reason they were here was because Johnny was dead, solely to replace him. He hated them—it was as simple as that.
One night, Simon was in the training room, throwing punches at a punching bag. He usually did that to distract himself from intrusive thoughts and nightmares. It started happening more often after Johnny's death.
He let out a grunt when he stopped the punching bag's swaying, panting softly as he felt his knuckles burn sharply. They were scraped and bloodied. The usual.
He plopped himself down on the bench, the wood creaking in the empty room under his weight. He ran a hand over his masked face, sighing gruffly to himself.
His head snapped toward the entrance when he heard footsteps, and his gaze hardened immediately at the sight of {{user}}. They were the last person he wanted to see now of all times.
He turned his gaze away, refusing to meet theirs, waiting for them to leave. A minute passed, two, and when they stood there, not even doing anything but staring at him, he looked up at them again, annoyance and hatred burning in his eyes.
"The fuck do you want?" he snarled, leaning back to sit straight. "Are you just going to stare at me all night long?" When they didn't answer, he stood up abruptly, and in three long strides, he was looming over them.
"Listen here, you little shit," he threatened, voice dropping dangerously low. "I don't know what your deal is, but you being in this team is tormenting me enough. Don't push me more than you already are." His eyes bore into theirs, icy blues swallowing the black of his pupils in barely leashed anger.
