    Summary

    Ghost is motionless, staring down at John's outstretched hand like he's trying to recall on which page of How to Behave Like a Real Human in Polite Society he’s previously seen the gesture.

    Before things can get awkward, John turns the aborted handshake into a jovial, manly sort of punch to Ghost’s shoulder. It's rather like how he imagines it would be to hit an adult moose, both in the physical sensation and in the frisson of anticipated danger it elicits. Gamely, he says, “Truck’s just about set, sir. Glad to be working with you.”

    Ghost’s eyes flick up to John’s face, and then higher, to his hair. He frowns.

    Summary

    Soap approaches him as soon as he enters the gym. “There you are, Sir! Ready to go down?”

    Ghost huffs. “In your dreams, MacTavish.”

    “Nah, Lt. In my dreams, I’m the one going down. Come on!” He winks and walks away to an empty sparring mat.

    The new guy in the 141, Soap, doesn't have a filter when it comes to flirting. Ghost has no idea how to cope with that. He can't afford to lose face in front of his peers, so he decides to just... play along.
    The problem is, they keep getting closer, so Soap decides they must be dating. In fact, it is so obvious, everyone agrees- everyone but oblivious Ghost.
    He is just happy to make a friend, to finally be able to share his past with someone, until he slowly realizes his feelings are growing into much more than friendship.

    Just one bite; to taste, and let go.

    Or, the on-field flirting is getting a little ridiculous.

    Summary

    “Ghost?”

    Soap.” Ghost’s voice was a low buzz, gravelly with static. In the absolute silence of the snow-covered forest, it sounded both deafeningly loud and intimately quiet.

    “What’s your favourite season?” Soap asked.

    -

    Four seasons, five countries, six months.
