Livid Love

"Can You Sleep Here Tonight?"

I lift my head off my pillow and squint at my clock, it's 3:02am, I sit up and rub my eyes with my hands. I twist out of bed making my way to the door through the dark. I open the door and I see there's a small lamp that Price must've put there so we can see. I tiptoe down the stairs in my socks that I've been wearing for the last day. I need to go for a shower so badly but it can wait until tomorrow. I enter the kitchen and I'm greeted with Ghost sitting at the table facing away from me, His head in his hands. I sit down on the last step of the stairs as he stands up and opens the press above the sink to get some food. I hear a packet of something crinkling as he closes it again turning to me. He sees me sitting there and tenses up.

"What are you doing up? It's 3am" he says, calming down

"I just woke up and I was going to get something to eat but look who's here" i tease

"Sleep well?"

"Like a log, what about you?"

"I haven't"

"Slept?"

He nods

"Is something wrong?" I say with concern in my voice

"No, look I want to show you something" he smiles putting his hand out

I hesitate and stand up, I take his hand and he starts to lead me back upstairs. We enter his bedroom and he closes the door behind him.

"It's a bit early is it?" I say turning to him as we stand beside his bed

"Early for what?"

I realise he wasn't planning on doing what I thought he was, 

"Oh never mind" I say trying to hide my embarrassment 

"Come on, look" he says. He uses his hand to push my lover back, leading me over to his balcony door. He opens it and I walk out beside him. I immediately look up and see a huge white moon glowing down at us in the sky, it's so bright I can see everywhere around us, it glows so much the  stars surrounding it are now unnoticeable,

"Woah, that's so pretty" I say in awe looking back to him

"Me or the moon" he smirks 

"Both" I say stepping closer to him

...

"You're so pretty" he says putting his hands on either side of my waist,

I feel myself blush as he leans down, his lips brushing lightly against mine, my heart flutters in excitement as he moves his hands downward, now holding my hips. He pulls me in and our lips collide once again, passionately moving with each others flow,

"WOAH STOP IT BEFORE I HAVE TO BLEACH MY EYES" I break off the kiss and lean sideways to look past Ghost, I see Soap sitting on his balcony with his phone in his hand.

"Sorry mate, didn't mean for you to see that" Ghost laughs..."or this" he puts one hand in between my shoulder blades and one on my lower back, he leans me back as I wrap my arms around his neck. He plants a long kiss on my lips before standing me on my feet again,

I'm smiling widely while Soap shouts over at us again

"OI Y/N HES MINE BACK OFF" He jokes

"Nah I've got him wrapped around my pinky finger, there's no getting him back!" I laugh back

"Come on" Ghost chuckles slightly as he takes me back inside. I yawn widely as I sit on his bed.

"Y/n"

"Mhm" I say looking up at him

"Can you sleep here tonight?"

"Of course" I reply smirk up at him as he smiles back, "Why are you asking?"

"I just enjoy your company" he says looking at the ground

I get the feeling he isn't in the mood for jokes,

"It just gets a bit lonely at night" he says sitting beside me

"How so?" I say turning to face him, I fold my legs together and look into his eyes.

"I don't know I just...my mind starts to wander too far down the wrong path sometimes, so I end up thinking about things I shouldn't"

"Well it's ok now because I'm here" I say giving him a gentle smile putting a hand on his arm.

"Do you want to get into your pyjamas?" He says

"Yeah, i'll go change into them" I stand up

"Wait don't go, you can wear mine"

"Ok sure" I say, he doesn't like the idea of me leaving his room, I feel so bad for him not having anyone to talk to. But now I'm here I will always look out for him and make sure he is ok.

He stands up and takes a T-shirt and pants out of his chest of drawers, he hands them to me saying,

"Can you stay here? I won't watch I promise" he begs

"I won't leave don't worry Ghost" I say empathetically looking up at him.

I see relief in his eyes as he sits on his bed facing away from me.

"Uh, do you have anything long sleeve?" I say to him

"Oh y/n, you don't have to hide it from me, you're perfect the way you are" he says without turning around. I blush hard as I strip down to my underwear. I pull up his pants and they fall right down to the floor again, i untie my hair and I use the hair bobble to tie the pants up so they will stay on me, I pull his t-shirt over me as well and it smells just like him, fresh and clean.

"Ok I'm done" I say as he turns around

"Loving the pants modification" he chuckles, looking at the huge tail I now have from the extra fabric.

"Thanks, it's my newest invention" I smile back at him

"Ok my turn to get changed now" he says standing up 

I lift the covers on his bed and I slide under them, his bed is way more comfortable than mine.

"How come your bed is nicer than mine" I say making a face

"You're welcome to stay here as much as you want" he says while pulling his top off, I can't help but stare at the muscles on his back moving as he pulls a T-shirt out of his drawer. There's scars on his back, long ones, short ones and a few tiny healed bullet holes on his shoulder. I watch in awe as he pulls the T-shirt over his head. He starts to pull off his pants and I look away, lying into his pillows. I feel the beds weight shift as he joins me under the covers.

"I'm cold" I say as a shiver runs down my spine

"You're always cold" he says turning to his side to face me

"I know" I laugh gazing into his eyes

He scoots over a bit and he wraps his arms around me. I immediately start warming up as his warm body radiates heat into me. I snuggle into his chest putting my ear to his heart, I hear it beating at a steady pace. Wow he's net even a bit nervous even through a girl is currently snuggled up against him.

"Y/n" he whispers

"Mhm"

"Do you think maybe...that you could... hug me"

I feel my heart swell as I take my head off his chest and he puts his on mine. He lays one of his legs over mine as he places a hand flat on my lower stomach which gives me a ton of butterflies. He lets out a long breath I didn't know he was holding.

"Is everything ok?" I say gently as I massage his hair through his balaclava

I feel his head nod on my chest as he mutters something 

"It is now" he mumbles
