Little did I know after I graduated from medical school that I would end up working as an emergency medical paramedic at a military base.
I didn't know beforehand which specialty I would go into. I was interested in all kinds of specializations, but helping people was obviously the main focus.
Now that you I about it, standing in the midst of the chaos with blood on my hands and body, surrounded by injured people and other medics, I seem to be in the right place.

"Do you still need assistance with this patient or can I go to the next one?" John asked me.
I've known John for a few years now. I finished medical school together with John. We then worked together for a while in the same hospital in London, which had to close after 3 years.
After that we hadn't heard from each other for a long time. Little did I know when I applied for this position that I would be meeting John on the plane to the military base in Mexico.
He was quite tall, blond hair and blue eyes. His physique was athletic but not overly muscular. He had grown into an attractive man over the years. I would sometimes find myself staring at him, wondering if anything sexual would ever happen between us. Then I quickly suppressed this thought so as not to ruin our good relationship.
We were like best friends and I didn't want to risk that for sex. But I also noticed a flirt on his part from time to time or how he stared at me and examined my body.

"y/n, are you listening to me?"
"Yeah sorry, I'm almost done here, you can go to the next wounded patient."

I checked the bandage of the patient lying on the table in front of me again and had him taken to the other ward for monitoring.

Just as I thought I was going to take a moment's break, a man staggered in.
"I was near a grenade when it exploded. I think there's a piece of it stuck in my shoulder, can you check?" he said.
"Please sit down, I can already see it bleeding." I answered him. I asked for his name and squad number. He told me his name was "Soap" and he was a member of task force 141. "Soap? Is that your last name?" I asked. "No, my name is John MacTavish. My boys call me Soap," he replied.
I needed to know this as we have to document all the patients we treat as in the past a lot of stuff was stolen from the medical base.

"I'm going to blow your shoulder..." I was about to say when the door opened again and a man with a skull mask came through the door.
"Johnny are you alright?" "Yeah, I just want to get this checked out," Soap replied to him.
"I thought your boys called you Soap?" I asked him. "Ghost is the only one who calls me Johnny" he said and winked at Ghost.
I turned to Ghost and looked at him.
I don't think I've ever seen a man that tall. He had his gear on, but you could tell he was a very muscular man. The mask is kind of spooky, I could only see his eyes. When he saw me starring at him, he shifted his gaze to me. I got nervous immediately. "Are you hurt sir?" I asked him. "No." he said in one word. He turned back to Soap, gave him a nod and walked out the door again.
What a strange man, I thought to myself.
