Faceless || Simon "Ghost" Riley X reader

⭐️forbidden : chapter 13

I never thought I'd kiss someone who had a mask on, but here I am, kissing a man with a mask on. It feels awkward but I'm enjoying it because it's him.

As we pull away from each other I stand there, just staring at him, and he does the same. I don't know what to say without making it weird or embarrassing myself so, I decide to say nothing. I watch as Ghost lifts his left hand behind his head and he begins to nervously rub it.

"Bloody hell. I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking." He says looking everywhere but my eyes. I step in and put my hand on his arm and guide it to his side.

"Are you joking?" I say truly confused about why he's apologizing. He finally looks at me.

"It's inappropriate for me to do. I'm your lieutenant." He says. He had a point, it's not like it was some illegal crime, it's just usually frowned upon. But that doesn't mean it's unacceptable, and can't happen.

"I understand. I should get back, I need to finish unpacking." I say, holding back tears. It wasn't that I was necessarily sad, I was embarrassed. As I walk to the house I only hope he follows me. Unfortunately for me, this time he didn't.

"Hey y/n!" Alejandro says as I open the front door. I smile at him.

"Hey, Alejandro." I say trying to hide my disappointment.

"You okay mi amor?" He asks raising his eyebrow as I shut the front door.

"Yeah, just not looking forward to organizing all my crap." I say with a chuckle. He nods his head.

"Would you like some help?" He asks smiling. I smile back.

"That'd be great actually!" I say genuinely happy. As we walk upstairs he makes conversation. I have no idea what he's saying but every now and then I chuckle and say "yeah" as if I'm paying attention. My mind is on Ghost. I knew he liked me. Maybe it was the fact he was touch deprived, or just wanted a woman's company, but he liked me. As we get to my door I refocus on reality. I open it and invite him in, I watch as his facial expression changes.

"Don't think about it Alejandro." I say. He presses his lips together and nods his head at me.

"So." He exhales. "What are we doing?" He asks changing his emotion.

"Well..." I say as I lift my bags up, placing them on the dresser. "We are making this room homier." I say. As I unzip my bag I make sure nothing that could make him uncomfortable is in there. Luckily there's nothing but simple room decor. I pull out my beige bed sheets, and my teal blanket, handing them to him.

"I like this color." He says as he studies the blanket.

"It's my favorite color actually." I really liked the color green, any shade. As he puts the sheets on my bed I pull out my salt lamp and put it on the dresser. After a couple of minutes almost everything is put in its rightful place, the only thing left to do is hang the curtains. I reach up trying to grab the empty curtain rod, unable to reach it. Alejandro notices my obvious struggle and walks up behind me. I watch as he lightly traces his fingers tips on the top of my hand. As he grabs the curtain rod I feel his chest press against my back, it warms me up but still manages to give me goosebumps. I grab a hold of the dresser as I feel his hips press into my ass. It's embarrassing to admit how much I'm enjoying this, even though it's something so innocent. At least I thought it was something innocent until I feel his hand placed on my waist.

"Are you okay mi amor?" He whispers in my left ear, sending tingles down my spine. I close my eyes and slightly turn my head, reacting to the tingles.

"Yes." I whisper back, not wanting this to end. After he sets the curtain rod on the dresser, I feel him place his other hand on my waist and he nuzzles his face in where my neck meets my shoulder. I feel his breath tickle my neck as he squeezes my waist and pulls me closer into him. I quickly open my eyes when I realize what's happening. I quickly slip out from his hold and go under his arm, now standing off to the side of him.
