New Recruit (Call of Duty MW) [Female Reader]

The Real Work Begins

You were ushered into a cramped helicopter with Graves's shadows and Valeria. Unfortunately, Graves sat next to you while Lucian sat on the opposite side.

Valeria's personal space was invaded by the one thing she hated the most. Men.

Your mind raced and wandered as the helicopter took off. That's when the radio went off.

"Y/N. You copy?" Soap asked.

You smiled slightly. Soaps voice seemed to cool the tension for now. "Yeah, I copy Soap." You answered.

"Watch your ass out there." Price interjected. "Out here."

"Uh, excuse you." Soap said in his thick accent as he shot a glare at Price. "Just try and not rip Graves head off."

"Can't promise that. Out here." You said.

Graves glared at you. "If anything, I have more experience than you do at these types of missions."

You rolled your eyes. "Maybe this mission is a chance for me to crush that bruised ego of yours. Can't handle a woman being better than you, huh?"

Graves was shaking in anger. If fragile masculinity was a man, it would most definitely be him.

Lucian couldn't help but snort, which made the other Shadows burst out in laughter.

Valeria groaned. "Ugh, you men will laugh at anything."

A few hours later..

You were leaning on Lucians shoulder to try and get some sleep. The other Shadows were mumbling and talking amongst themselves.

Graves was half asleep with his earbuds in.

You could hear exactly the type of music he listened to. You couldn't help but grin as you sat up from leaning on Lucians shoulder.

"I'll be damned." You whispered as you snatched his wired earbud out of his ear.

Graves jumped as his phone fell from his pocket.

"I guess I owe Dallas 20 bucks. You listen to Britney Spears!" You held up the earbud to your own ear. "Womanizer!"

Graves tried to snatch his earbuds back. "Oh please, it's on rotation! I don't like her!"

You laughed as the music was loud enough for even Lucian and the others to hear. "Coming from someone who can't take the slightest hit to his pride from a woman of all people, listening to a popular female artist, that's ironic."

Graves snatched his earbuds back as his face went red from embarrassment.

The Shadows laughed along with Valeria, who chuckled softly.

"Alright! You've had your laugh!" Graves said, his cheeks still flushed from the embarrassment.

"Commander! Get ready. We arrive in 5 minutes."

Graves rubbed his forehead and glared at every one of his Shadows. "Alright. That's enough! Bandit, get your ass up and get ready."

The silence in the helicopter was truly astonishing.

You put on your gear and helmet.

Valeria kept stealing glances at you, secretly admiring how cute you looked in all the military gear.

You looked at Graves, who was still embarrassed about being called out for liking Britney Spears. But he put it aside.
