I woke up to an alarm clock exactly at 06:00, looking around the rooms familiar. God knows I set my alarm an hour later, an arm tightens as I move, now realizing i'm in Ghost's room.. in Ghost's bed.. Simon's bed. I shut the alarm off quickly while I slowly move my position to sit up and replace myself with a pillow before staring at the man in front of me, I know he's still sleeping by his steady breathing and calm expression. I decide it's best to let him sleep, quietly shutting the door I make my way to kitchen where I see Soap sitting waiting for the coffee to finish brewing.
"Good morning Spider." He greets with a warm smile.
"Mornin' Soap."
"Hey you haven't seen the other lieutenant around have you? He's normally in his office by 03:00."
"He's still asleep, why?" I told Soap as he stops reaching for the coffee and stares at me with a look of bewilderment before speaking again.
"Ghost's asleep..? Are ya takin' a piss lass?"
"Of course not MacTavish, what are you on about?" I laughed, mostly confused.
"Ya' drug him or something? I have never seen that man sleep, only one time in my life.. I thought he was sleeping until he opened his eyes and stared into my soul on the couch, scared the bloody livin shit outta' me."
"I uh.. didn't drug him? I crashed in his room last night.." I told the sergeant quietly.
"You're dingey!" He laughed off.
"English Soap." I replied rolling my eyes.
"You are lying." He said in a matter-a-fact tone. "And it only sounds right when Ghost says 'English MacTavish' I don't think you have the right tone." He replied, quite sassy too.
I rolled my eyes, but as I was going to reply the man of the hour himself walked in eyeing both of us before grabbing a mug and a tea bag. Soap cleared his throat at me, raising his brow and opening his mouth once again.
"Long night last night, huh L.T.?" He spoke, and how I wish I could wipe that stupid grin off Soap's mouth right now.
"Shut it Johnny." His voice still gruff from waking up.
"Only messin' with ya L.T. I know women don't talk to ya." He nudged Ghost on the shoulder and then sat down with his coffee.
I'll give it to Soap for poking at an agitated bear that had just woken up, although it surprised me when Ghost only gave him a death glare before continuing with making his tea. If that was any other person, they'd be dead, I guess John Mactavish is lucky when it comes to Ghost.
"You'd be surprised." I said under my breath, but Ghost definitely caught it by the way he turned to look at me right after. "Sorry.." I whispered
"What? What'd you just say?" Soaps poor mind was so confused I almost giggled.
"Oh nothing." I waved off, only teasing but Soaps did not like that one bit.
"I'll give you my coconut rum if you tell me." He offered.
"Mm I don't know.. I don't think coconut rum will get answers out of me."
"Whiskey?"
"Not in the mood for Whiskey."
"Scotch?"
"Soap you're kidding right?"
"Bourbon?"
"Give it to me and then maybe." I would have told him after Ghost left, but now he was offering alcohol and who could deny alcohol? and Bourbon? How could I deny such a good drink. Ghost gave me a disapproving look before leaning back on the counter facing me while drinking his tea. Both of us waited until Soap came back with 3/4 of a bottle full of Bourbon. He handed it to me and when he got to the other side of the table I decided it was a good time to not tell Soap.
"So?" He impatiently waited for a response.
"Oh I uh forgot?"
"You're such a liar! Give that back." He tried to reach for me but I quickly jumped up and went to the opposite side of the counter, Soap was now across from me. We went around the kitchen island about 8 times until the bottle was snatched out of my hands. That confused me, Soap was panting, leaning on the island across from me the only other person near me was.. Ghost.
"Hey! Give that back!" I protested trying to reach the bottle that was now in the air well over a foot above my head.
"That's not fair, it's my bottle!" Soap whined.
"Not anymore Soap, not anymore." The lieutenant said walking down the hall with a cup of tea in one hand and a bottle of Bourbon in the other, leaving me and Soap to watch him disappear into his office.
"You're just gonna let em' walk away!?"
Soap furrowed his brows before looking at me, "Are YOU going to get it?"
"You said it, it's YOUR bottle."
"Ghost said not anymore, so not anymore."
"It won't be Ghost's for long."
"Don't be stupid we can go get more."
"But what's the fun in that? I want that one."
"You're gonna get yourself killed woman.. killed." He laughed, amused at my determination.
"We'll have it by tomorrow Soap." I replied before walking down the same path Ghost did, reaching his office before knocking twice.
