I walked into the gym. No one was there as it was early, I put my AirPods in and started to warm up. After a few minutes I started to tackle the obstacle course. Whenever I trained I got into this head space. I trained until my body was exhausted, it was something I had done from a young age. It may not have been healthy but my stamina and strength were at peak athleticism, all the hours upon hours of pushing myself to the extremes had paid off.
Every time I failed part of the course I started over not stopping until I had fully completed the course 3 times in a row. Even when in my mind set I could feel a set of eyes on me not bothering to check on who it was, I was perceptive to my surroundings I remember Soap teaching me with countless hours of him training me until they were sharp. I stopped and turned on the treadmill. Cardio was my strongest asset, I could run for long periods of time without breaking out in a sweat. Whenever I was angry when I was younger I always used to run, I channelled all of the anger and just ran. As I was a naturally angry person I ran a lot. After a while I stopped running and took a Quick Look in the mirror noticing that it was Ghost watching me. Fucksake.
'Are you ever going to stop watching' I say while drinking from my water bottle.
'Just watching you run yourself into the ground' Ghost said with this smug voice.
'I have more to do. I get you would be tired and that's ok just don't project your insecurities onto me' men and their egos.
'Spar me then 'pea' It look me by surprise when Ghost said that. I was always up for a challenge but this man was built like a tank. I was good at what I did but honestly I knew my limits. However letting Ghost seeing me back down was not an option so I had only one choice.
'Fine' I wasn't happy because it would be humiliating for me but no one else was here so that put my mind at ease.
I got into the ring and prepared myself to be absolutely dominated by this insufferable twat. I knew I would never hear the last of it. I remembered what Soap always taught me 'never make the first move. look at what their weaknesses are whether it be their speed or an old injury. use it against them'
I took in a breath and took my position. As expected Ghost took the first swing. A right hook to my face. I dodged it just in time and manoeuvred my way behind him to kick his knees in. Speed. His weakness. With ghost now on his knees I kicked him down to the ground. He rolled over so I was now straddling him. He took a swing at my face again and I managed to catch his fist and twist it whilst I pushed it over his head. One thing I forgot. His bloody legs. He might not have the best speed because of his big frame but he was muscular to say the least. His knee connected with my side making me groan. Next thing I knew I was the one now on the floor. Ghost on top of me. My hands above my head whilst he held my wrists together.
'Tap out bitch' Ghost said while panting, seems like he forgot the same thing I did. My legs were the strongest part of my body, due to all the cardio. I wrapped my calves around his neck and with great force and I mean great force I pulled with all my might. Eventually it paid off, I was flipped with him. Me now sitting on his chest, and wrapping my arms around his legs locking them. His arms were pinned under his own body.
'Tap. Out.' I say between breathes.
'Fine'
I got off and pushed any fly away hairs out of my face. I looked around to see Soap, Gaz, and Price looking at us.
'She beat you bad man' Gaz said with a smile to which Soap laughed at.
'I trained her well' Soap said while coming into the ring. Offering Ghost a hand up which was not taken instead Ghost said nothing got up and left.
'You got lucky' Ghost said as he was leaving.
'Salty salty man. I hurt his small precious ego' I said with a smile. 'What's for lunch I am starving'
The four of us walked down to the mess hall. Talking about all and nothing.
'So Paige I read your file' Price said 'you had your own squad?'
'Yeah, they were great. We were the top team at the base. Countless operations were a success. I treated all of them as my own. I suppose I saw myself in each of them. Wanting to prove and a thirst to do right by their country, I was gutted when I left but I am here after all' I say with a smile thinking back to my team. All of them had great attributes to become a serious task force member.
'I can imagine, I remember hearing about how successful the squad was' Price said with a nod towards me. 'And that is all down to you'
'Oh god no. I might have trained them but they all had a drive and talent. I will never take credit for them'
After we all had lunch I decided to shower because after my fight with Ghost I built up a sweat. I had nothing to do for the rest of the day as I hadn't gone on a mission yet which meant no paperwork. I took off my workout clothes and threw them into the laundry basket. I may have won against Ghost but my body felt sore and achy so I definitely was not winning in that department. While in the shower I thought back to Ghost and when he was on top of me. I felt myself heating up at the thought of him on top of me holding my wrists. I may not like the man but can anyone blame a girl for getting hot and fussy when a tall muscular man was on top of them.
I finished my shower and got dressed into simple lounge wear, leggings and a baggy top. Just as I laid down on my bed I heard a knock at my door.
'Paige, I just realised you don't know where your office is. I never showed you when you arrived.' Price said.
'I have an office? I honestly thought I would have to do paperwork in the mess hall.' I followed Price reading door signs as I walked past.
'Here. You are opposite Ghost. Between me and Gaz. Hope this is ok' Price said as he opened up the door. The office was simple, a wooden desk, filing cabinets, a spinny chair and a window which let light flood in. There was a lamp on the desk and a single armchair placed in the corner.
'Thank you Price this is amazing. Can I decorate in here as well'
'Well of course. By the way meeting room in 5. Up and coming mission' he sighed and left. I looked around the office and sat on the spinny chair whizzing around in circular laughing a bit at my own stupidity.
