CHAOS - Surprise!
[part 2]
Ghost assumed they raided the wrong loft at first. Instead of a weapons cache, they found a young woman who seemed genuinely surprised to find them standing in her living room. Soap lowered his weapon before giving a confused look to the lieutenant who was already contacting Price. The captain and Gaz were raiding another building at the same time where the terrorist cell supposedly kept the remainder of their weapons.
He told Soap to keep an eye on you and check the place just in case while he left the apartment to talk to Price in private. The last thing he needed was a civilian hearing their conversation. “Price, do you copy?” It took the captain a minute, but eventually he responded. “We’re at the loft our source told us about, but we only found a very confused woman inside. Did you find anything?”
There was another pause, but then Price’s raspy voice broke the silence. “We found what we were looking for. Are you sure there’s nothing?”
“Soap would have already told me if he found anything since I left. It doesn’t make sense. You found the weapons cache at the said location, but even though I’m one hundred percent sure we are at the right place, we found nothing. What’s going on?” Ghost asked his superior.
“I don’t know, but we will figure it out. If that’s the address, the woman might know something. Bring her back to the base for interrogation.”
“Will do.”
He returned to the loft, only to find Soap being in the middle of a casual conversation with you. When the sergeant followed your gaze and noticed Ghost was back, he quickly straightened his back and put a hand on his weapon again. With a sigh, the lieutenant stepped closer to you and pulled out a zip tie from his pocket.
“What’s that for?” you asked him with a finger pointed at the object in his hand.
Ghost let out a groan before grabbing your hand and gently reaching for the other to tie your hands together. “Trust me, I don’t enjoy it one bit, but we have questions. Be a good girl and cooperate,” he told you before yanking you towards the front door.
Soap opened his mouth to say something, probably to object and tell him it was unnecessary as you would have gone with them if he asked, but Ghost shot him a serious look that shut him up. This wasn’t the time nor place for an argument about you, so it was for the best to stay silent until they got back to the base. If you were on the enemy’s side, you might be paying a little more attention to the tiny details of their conversation, and he definitely didn’t want that.
By the time they reached their destination, Graves was already waiting for them with a smirk on his face after a conversation with their source. But that smirk faded a little when his eyes fell on you and Ghost didn’t know what to think. “Did you find out anything?” he asked the Shadow.
“I know why you didn’t find a weapons cache,” Graves began, his hand slowly inching closer to the weapon on his side. “It’s her. She’s the weapon.”
“What?” Soap asked with a shocked look in his eyes.
But when Ghost turned to you, he only found you watching them with a big smile on your face, shrugging nonchalantly before you raised your now free hands. “Surprise!” All three of them pointed their weapons at you, but with only a wave of your hand, you took all of them away, throwing them to the other side of the room. “I won’t hurt you. In fact, I want to thank you for saving me from them.”
Your hands were surrounded by something red and it made Ghost worried. If you could take away their weapons like this, you could have broken their necks just as easily. But you didn’t. “What the hell are you?”
You took your time to answer this question, but once you made up your mind, you said, “Chaos.”

Can we please talk about his neck-communicator more often?
And he has some freckles inside of his bicep? tricep? I don't know what that part is called but they're adorable

John hated to go on a mission right after a big fight with his girlfriend. She was so young and temperamental, and to make things worse, she was also stubborn as hell. Sure, he wasn’t without fault either, but he was older and wiser, always doing his best to mentor her, teach her how to be more patient. So when he was facing radio silence on her part, he began to lose his calm little by little.
At first he only noticed the rapidly declining amount of his beloved cigars. Then he became irritated, snapping at people for no serious reason. Simon knew what was eating him. He always knew when they were fighting at home, as if he had a sixth sense for this thing. The lieutenant was sneakier than him as he always suggested bypassing his girlfriend and talking straight to her parents.
They loved John. Maybe because they were closer in age compared to her previous boyfriends, or maybe because he was in the military and they knew he would do anything to protect their daughter from harm. Either way, this trick usually worked, and as if he was a lucky charm because it was his idea, Simon had to sit there and listen to the conversation.
“I’ve been trying to reach her, but there’s nothing, she doesn’t even read my messages,” he complained to the couple. His friend gave him a thumbs up then he rolled up his balaclava to his nose before lighting a cigarette. “Have you talked to her? Is she okay?” John pressed on, trying to sound extremely worried.
In reality, he wasn’t worried. He knew she was okay because she was always okay. She was just acting like a brat, a behavioral trait that he would have to correct once he got home. He listened to her parents explain how she had just visited them the day before, and how her mother would immediately call and scold her for making him so worried about her.
“You don’t need to, I’m sure she’ll reach out eventually,” he told them, sounding as relieved as he could.
They said their goodbyes and he tossed the phone on the desk. He looked over at Simon who flashed a Cheshire Cat smile at him before saying, “Told you they would know. They always know,” he added with a laugh.
“I can’t believe this woman. Just because we get into some stupid fight over something as trivial as who will pay for our trip to Italy, she goes no contact with me,” John said before letting out an exasperated sigh and sitting down on his chair.
“What was that fight about exactly? She doesn’t wanna pay?”
A scoff left the captain’s lips. “The opposite. She received a hefty bonus at work and now she wants to pay for the trip,” he told him with a shake of his head.
But Simon only tilted his head to the side as he blew out some smoke. “What’s wrong with that?” the lieutenant asked, genuinely curious about the answer.
John shook his head. “Nothing, I know that, but she should save that money. I always tell her to be reasonable when spending it,” he replied. “I want to take care of her. Am I a bad person for this?”
“No, you’re not.” The captain opened his mouth to say thank you, but Simon was quick to raise a hand and stop him. “But you should let her treat you every now and then. She wants to do something nice for you, John. Don’t take this away from her.”
With a sigh, John picked up his phone and began to type a message in the app you used. When he put it back down, Simon raised an eyebrow in question. “I sent her a text where I admit she was right and I won’t interfere in her plan,” he informed his friend.
“I’m sure she will be very happy to read this.”
She might be happy to win this battle, but he sure as hell wasn’t about to lose the war. He just needed to put a little more effort into the process of making her his pretty little housewife. Once he was done, she would have to do nothing but stay at home and wait for him to go home to her.
Soon after Simon left the office, John’s phone beeped twice. He took a look at the screen and noticed it was a message from her. With a smile on his lips he opened it, only to find a photo of her in nothing but a set of brand new lingerie with a short sentence under it.
I bought this for you. I have something special in mind for the day you come home 🎀❤️
