One step forward, swing, step back, swing, repeat.
One step forward, swing, step back, swing repeat.
My legs grew more frustrated and tired by every step I took hitting the punching bag.
The hard wood floor didn't make it easier, all I could hear was my shuffle of my shoes, the punches hitting the hard red bag, and my hair shifting with every gust of air.
"Hey..."
I turn my face, beat and red looking towards the face.
"You okay?" Soap is looking at me, his jaw clenched a look in his eye like he was holding back something from me. I wipe my some sweat off my face before I reply, "fine." I punch the bag a few more times as he moves closer to me. "Yknow, kid-"
"Not a kid." I bluntly cut him off.
"I-" he laughs slightly, "whatever you think you did to Keegan to make him leave or whatever the fuck that was it wasn't your fault." He tries to reassure me.
"I know"
"Do you?"
"I don't know what you're trying to accomplish with this little pep talk soap but it really isn't working." I keep punching the bag. He sighs.
I relax my arms and look at him, "Yknow I was top in my class and I bet you were too, so as you should know I could read your face from miles away, even better that you're standing right in front of me." I punch him slight in the chest, "so whatever you wanna say just fucking way it cause you have that secret look in your face and it's really ticking me off."
"I know." His face relaxes as he says those words.
"Know what exactly?" I reply
"That you slept with him, mouse we were all top of our class, we all knew the second you both were in the mission." He added. "And now we know that Keegan was the rat in the unit, now we wanna know." He clears his throat.
"Were you involved with him in more than one way?" He gives me a stern look.
I chuckle slightly, "you're joking, right?"
"Not in the slightest." He bluntly says.
"Okay fine I FUCKED him, emphasis on fuck I didn't make love to him I was horny and that was it, okay?" I state. "There's no way in hell they're looking at me for being involved in any another way." I start to walk away from soap.
He follows behind, "I want to believe you mouse, you worked hard to get where you are but the fact you fucked Keegan makes me question your intentions."
"And what intentions would those be exactly, soap?" I turn to look at him.
"Why are you here." He shoots me a dead stare.
I actually was shocked he even considered me being a rat, I knew by the fact they sent soap to question me about all this they were serious though. Why else would they send the member on the team I was the closest too.
I sit down on the cold wood floor, "im doing this for my father." I look up at him, "I didn't ruin my career for some dick, I didn't work as hard as I did to be accused of something so stupid jus because I had sex with a guy I told wasn't even going to be apart of our team." I inhale deeply, "I just wish I didn't even fuck him at this point."
"Kid.." he sits down next to me.
"I miss my dad, I just-" I look down at my bruised knuckles, "this makes me feel closer to him and that's it so go tell them whoever the fuck sent you to ask me all these dumb questions that I will do anything to prove I wasn't involved in Keegan's conspiracy."
"I believe you." He puts his arms around my shoulder. "Just promise me you won't fuck any more army idiots."
I chuckle, "I promise." I lean my head on his shoulder. "I really wish my sex life didn't get dragged into this mess."
"I really wish you didn't make me drag your sex life into this mess." He chuckles.
"So.. what are we going to do now?" I ask.
"Well I think we are probably all going to be questioned about what happened on that mission." He takes his arms off me, "no word from Keegan and now everyone really is worried about what else he might have spilled."
I begin to think about something he said.
"Her..." i mumble to myself. "Hm?" Soap replies.
"Before Keegan left he told me I was so stubborn just like 'her'." I say with air quotes. "Her?" Soap tilts his head.
"I'm not sure I thought it was even weird he wanted me to go with him since we only slept together that one time, but that doesn't make sense to me who was her?"
Soap purses his lip, he stands up swiftly like a thought bubble just popped out of no where.
"What?" I look up at him. "Her!" He yells back at me.
"The story I told you mouse! Her! Her!" He keeps saying.
"Yeah but you told me that lady didn't even end up with him?" I fury my eyebrows. "But ghost and Keegan both fought for her." He adds on.
"Who even is her? And how is finding out who she is going to help with finding him? Also shouldn't we be focusing on our mission?" I stand up.
"Don't worry." He winks, "you and me will focus on finding as much as we can about her on our free time."
"I'm not really sure if I wanna do that on my free time." I scratch my head. "Fine I'll do it but don't come bothering me when I find out who she is." He sassy rolls his eyes at me.
"Fine I really won't care anyways" I laugh, "so are we good?" I awkwardly say.
"We never weren't good." He smiles.
