Simon "Ghost" Riley

13.

"You did so good baby." He whispered in my ear before starting to get up.

"Let's get you cleaned up." As he picked me up and he headed towards the bathroom door.

He sat me down on the closed toilet seat as he turned on the water, soon, he started to take off his hoodie and then his shirt, being fully naked. After he was done with himself, he started taking my shirt off.

Once we were both naked he lead me into the shower, yet he still had his mask on. I didn't say anything about it, I didn't wanna make him uncomfortable.

He started to put shampoo in my hair and wash it. I giggled a little at his antics. He chuckled slightly with me.

"Don't we have to go back on our mission soon?" I asked him as I put my hands on his chest, he still massaged my hair.

"Yea.. Price will send us back out tomorrow to get it done with already." He replied in his thick accent as he frowned slightly

"Hm.. that's okay." I whispered trying to be optimistic.

As he massaged my hair and he was done I looked up at him. He stared at my body for a second before looking into my eyes also.

"Why won't you take the mask off?" I whined to him.

He looked at me and hesitated for a few seconds before he pulled his mask off slowly. I had seen his face a few times before but only when it was a necessary/emergency.

He still has his paint around his eyes but it soon started to wash off. I went on my tippy toes as I put some shampoo in his hair and rubbed it in. When I went on my tippy toes my.. chest was almost at his eyes now.

He must've noticed because he was staring like crazy, I could feel his eyes. I looked at his face to see him staring, I didn't mind.

When I went down he kissed my cheek as he put his hair under the water to wash it off.

"Thank you." He whispered to me, pulling me closer as he put his hands on my waist, rubbing his thumbs once more before kissing my temple.

After a little bit we got out of the shower, he helped me into some pyjamas as he put me in bed under the covers.

"Do you need anything?" He asked, not getting into bed yet.

"Yea.. for you to come next to me and lie down." I giggled as he got closer to the bed now.

Once he sat down in the bed I felt his arms go closer to me and he soon held me while we were in bed. I felt a content sigh leave my lips as he kissed my hair gently.

"Simon.." I whispered to him.

"Hm?" He whispered back to me, my eyes opening to look up at his. His mask still off.

His face was beautiful, his blue eyes making me love him even more. There was a scar though, from his forehead down to his cheek, it was.. attracting me even more, yet I felt terrible that anyone would have that.

"Why?" I asked him in a soft voice.

He raised an eyebrow at me in confusion.

"Why what baby girl?" He questioned as he softly tucked a hair behind my ear, making sure not to be rough.

"Why do you like me? Why are you suddenly doing this?" I looked into his eyes as I watched them shift from mine for a few seconds, then go back to mine.

"Because.." he paused for a few seconds. "Because I love you." He whispered quieter now. "I never knew how or when to tell you."

I froze for a couple for seconds. I thought he just thought of me as a fling, a one night stand. I didn't expect him to love me back. I looked into his eyes, I knew he waited for a response, I kissed him for a minute or two.

"I love you too." I whispered back as my hand went to cup his face, my thumb rubbing his ragged scar covered skin.
