Summary
He was on his back, and there was a sharp, aching pain in the back of his head, throbbing in time with the shooting pain behind his eyes with every beat of his heart— his radio was going haywire a few inches from his ear, conversations drumming along at breakneck speed.
A nightmare, he reassured himself, licking at dry lips.
Not for the first time in his life, Ghost gets buried alive.
He’s not sure how many times he can dig himself out.

Summary
Every time he fell asleep in MacTavish’s bed, every time MacTavish soothed nightmares away with pet names and soft touches smoothing over trembling skin, every inside joke, every time he wiped away his tears, every time they made each other laugh, every time he looked a little too long at the way Ghost smiled, or the pink flush that dusted over his cheeks when he was embarrassed, or the way his eyes would flicker into half moons when he got happy— Ghost wouldn’t trust him with all of it if he knew Soap was fucking in love with him.
soap realises he’s in love; he decides to cut it all off before it gets any worse.

Summary
“Well— alright,” Ghost accepted it easily. “I can get ‘em for you.”
“I— what?”
“I’m stationed at Redford Barracks,” Ghost replied carelessly. “There’s a Tesco right outside, half an hour on the bus into Edinburgh town centre. Can you wait that long?”
soap, on medical leave and roped into taking care of his niece, calls for the very best backup he knows; he discovers some things about himself in the meanwhile.

Summary
“Bloody hilarious,” MacTavish deadpanned, hand squeezing around the back of his neck— “now c’mere.”
“What?”
“I’m cold,” MacTavish replied, and he let go of Ghost to leave him cold as he unzipped his sleeping bag, “come here.”

Summary
Ghost knew secrets, so he let MacTavish keep them. He didn’t need to know every little detail, didn’t need to know how he ended up with a decorative plate from Iceland or what was up with all the pillows in his house and on his sofa or if that was his cup, a lumpy thing made of clay in the back of the cupboard that had been painstakingly been painted years before and was chipping at the edges.
To Ghost’s chagrin, there was nothing in the field manual about wanting to know someone— nothing about wanting to live outside of the military, and nothing at all about being human with anyone else at all.
