the picture shows a WIP of my new Ghost/Soap fic:
“Have plans for us, do you?” His voice drops a few notes, private and just for hm. “Don’t worry, pretty boy, we’ll have enough time.”
John still blushes at the pet name, even after a year. Simon knows, and likes to take full advantage of it.
“I do,” he nods, biting the inside of his mouth like a teenage boy flirting for the first time. He likes it, the attention, the unbidden affection Simon never hides from him. “I’ve missed ye.”
“Missed you too,” Simon replies, clearing his throat right after, voice changing back to something close to Ghost. “Price will never lend his phone again, you should see his fa– Garrick, stop gagging or I’ll shove the barrel of my gun right down your throat–”
There’s some huffing and shuffling on his end of the line, and John listens with the usual glee. He misses the 141, so he’ll take anything he can. Teases Simon often enough to be nice to them, to their chosen family. John isn’t sure if the shoving-a-gun-down-the-throat thing is what Simon calls nice, but Kyle’s hyena-like cackle is reassuring enough.
“I take it yer message hasnae gone through,” John grins, Simon grumbling something in his ear. He leans back on the couch, memories of shipping home together coming back in fragments, tired and weighed down by what they’d gone through, but together.
The four of them. The two of them. Secret glances and thighs pressed together, boots flush for hours on end. John always loved his work, but coming home together was by far his favourite part.
“…should be home by two, don’t wait up, you hear?”
“We both know I will, dinnae try and convince me,” John argues, Simon’s defeated sigh music to his ears.
“See you soon, Johnny.”
“Cannae wait, darlin’.”
John is hellbent on staying up to greet Simon.
He’s fast asleep by half nine.
WIP Wednesday, #ghoap style
the fic that still has the delusional working title of "Valentine's Day fic" on my laptop 🙃. It started off as a short something- now it's not that short but still just as sweet because it's me and it's *them*
