Bipartite || Elisavet Makri || Book 1

CHAPTER 2

I followed Alejandro to the rec room, where everyone else from the Task Force was. Even Simon was here. That's a first. Actually, now that I remember correctly, it's not. We have done this before but with Price and Gaz. Yeah, that was a nice evening.

"Took you long enough," Soap said while he was sitting on the couch with the remote in his hand. "What were you doing?" He asked and raised his eyebrow.

I sat between him and Simon. Johnny is on my left, and Simon is on my right. I took the remote out of his hand.

"Whatever the hell we wanted. It's none of your business, Johnny." I said this as Alejandro sat next to Rodolfo.

"Now I am interested."

"How about we pick a movie instead?"

"Whatever Elizabeth."

I looked at him, and I slapped his thigh. "Bastard, I've told you not to call me that. My fucking name is Elisavet."

"Ouch!" he said while rubbing his thigh. "It's the same fucking thing."

"It's not, and you know it!"

"Can we just watch a movie?" Simon said.

"Yeah. What do you want to watch?" I asked.

"I don't know." Simon said. Of course, he wouldn't choose. He never does.

"Rush Hour!" Soap said.

"No!" I and Simon said it in unison. Soap just put his hands up.

"I know! How about Top Gun?" I suggested.

"Again?" Soap said.

"Well, my other suggestion is Cars. But you know we will watch it in Greek. Choose wisely, MacTavish."

"Okay, okay. I guess you win. Put Top Gun before I change my mind."

"I don't think your opinion really matters, hermano." Alejandro said.

"He is right." I said to Soap and he just rolled his eyes.

As I was searching for the movie, Soap got up and brought some snacks and beers from the kitchen. He sat down, opened the can, and then put his arm behind me. It's something we always do. Soap is like an older brother to me, and vice versa. We might flirt sometimes, but at the end of the day, nothing will ever happen between us. I never saw him like that. He might be handsome and all, but I could never do anything more with him. So, ladies, he is all yours.

The movie was amazing, as always. I love Top Gun, and I also love Tom Cruise. This man is hella handsome.

Soap took his hand off me, put both over his head, and arched his back. And he made sure his yawn was heard. "Finally, it's over."

"I know you like it, Johnny."

"If that makes you happy, then yes, I do like it."

"Keep lying to yourself."

He didn't say anything about my comment. "Let's play a game."

"Here we go..." Simon said, shaking his head.

"What kind of game?" Alejandro asked.

"Let's get to know each other better. We might be working together for a few months. So why not learn a few things about ourselves?"

"I'm out of here. Night." Simon stood up and left to go to his room.

"Okay, whatever Soap." I said, and I took a sip from my beer.
