    Summary

    “I’m just saying,” one of the kids says to the other conversationally, as if they’re not supposed to be on watch right now, completely unaware of Soap just a few meters behind where they’re both sat. “Soap and Ghost-“

    He doesn’t actually say anything more than that, but going by the quiet chuckle the other lets out, Soap assumes he’s wiggling his eyebrows, or something equally juvenile.

    Soap catches the two new guys gossiping

    Summary

    Ghost dared lift his eyes to glance at Soap and found the man smiling at him, far too softly and fondly. It was the type of expression that made Ghost want to stab him.
    “D’you want me to hold your hand, sir?”
    Between the third and fourth ribs, Ghost decided. It would be fast.

    In the week since Ghost got hypothermia, he has been haunted by the irritating, ceaseless desire for Soap to touch him again.

    Summary

    “What’re you doin’, Johnny?” Simon breathes, flashing Soap his crooked, snarled teeth. His canines are sharp like a dog’s.

    “I think you’re smart enough to figure that out on your own, L.T.,” Soap says, before pulling the mask fully off and crashing their mouths together.

    Somehow, any time they’re alone together, it always devolves into this. Always.

    Ghost’s lips are cold, but the inside of his mouth is hot, almost feverish, and his tongue is wet where he bullies his way into Soap’s mouth. It’s disgusting, objectively. Ghost has nerve damage around his mouth, too, so he can’t really feel what he’s doing when he kisses someone, and with the open scar it ends up being a sloppy, slick mess, but Soap loves the way it leaves him feeling like he’s being devoured.

    Ghost’s teeth are sharp, and John crumbles like communion bread underneath them.

    Summary

    Johnny had given up on his dream of going to art school early on — with his conservative parents and non-existent support system, he’d settled for doing whatever his family wanted him to.

    His best friend, Simon, had other plans.

    “You can come live with me.”

    “Yeah, right, sneakin’ into yer military home is such a smart idea.”

    Simon paused, having the sort of brilliant idea that would make Johnny scoff. Sure that they could pull it off.

    “Marry me. The army gives free housing to serving soldiers and their families.”

    Their fake marriage was a gateway for very real feelings to blossom, though, even through the difficulties that life put in their way.
