    Summary

    An alternate first meeting, where Ghost and Soap meet each other in the field under infinitely worse circumstances than either of them would have liked:

    Ghost wakes up in a pit under a building with a bomb attached to him, certain he's going to die. Soap, an EOD tech amongst his other specialties, is the only person available to at least try to save him. It should be fraught, and tense, and miserable all around, and it is; a whole lot of Ghost slowly losing his mind while Soap does everything he can to save his life. But it would probably be easier if Ghost wasn't a stress-flirter, and if Soap wasn't the kind of endlessly competent that he loved, and if, by virtue of their situation, they didn't keep ripping open each other's wounds and then patching each other back up again after.

    Summary

    “We got a problem here?” His chest rumbles against your back, a warning and a question wrapped up into one. He turns fully to face the man and casually pulls out a cigar, briefly dropping his hold on you as he lights it. When his arm returns, it slides down lower to wrap possessively around your waist, hand impossibly huge and warm against your ribs.

    or, the one where Task Force 141 chases off a creep.
