Summary
He’d been avoiding Ghost, planning on continuing to do so until he could sort out his thoughts and feelings regarding the man, preferably, shifting them into something less intimate.
Evidently, he’d run out of time and Ghost had found a way to pin him down, literally and metaphorically.

Summary
When a flirtatious subordinate won’t take a hint, Lieutenant Simon “Ghost” Riley blurts out that he has a boyfriend. It’s a lie meant to shut things down – until the story spreads across base and command expects his mystery partner to show up at an upcoming formal event.
Meanwhile, John “Soap” MacTavish, ex-military and now civilian, tells his family the same lie to avoid another disastrous matchmaking attempt. Their mutual friend Kyle "Gaz" Garrik – utterly delighted – connects the dots and makes the fake relationship official.
But one event turns into two. Then into family weekends, texts at midnight, comfort cups of tea, and quiet moments that start to feel dangerously real. What began as a tactical cover story is suddenly the most stable thing in either of their lives.
They said it was temporary.
They didn't expect to want more.Bookmarked by pegl

Summary
"So, ye really never take it off, then,” Soap said bluntly. He’s nursing whiskey, lamely, because while he had taken at least a few sips while sitting in this dingy bar, he’d really been more distracted with the rest of the team.
For example, his lieutenant, who gave the impression of someone who didn’t want to be looked at more than once. Unfortunately— he’d already solidified himself as Soap’s number one target of interest.
“I wasn’t lying to you,” Ghost said back, flatly.
“Aye. Just figured… if ye bought a drink,” he gestured, “surely ye’d take the thing off. Unless ye’r planning on waterboarding yerself.”
Ghost looked at him blankly, unamused as his head tilted to the side. “Have a fascination with my face, do you?”
Just with you, I’m afraid, Soap thought.
(Devotion; as defined through several recollected moments.)

Summary
Missing scene between Alone and Prison Break, from Ghost and Soap leaving Las Almas to arriving at Alejandro's safehouse.
They drive straight for a long stretch, and Soap wishes he felt better with Las Almas fading behind them. But he’s feeling worse the further they go.
"Pull over," Soap drags the words from a murky pit in his throat. Jesus. He's not going to make it.
