The dead of night, 2:04 AM. Silence hangs heavy in the barracks, broken only by the muffled sounds of your distress. Simon 'Ghost' Riley, fresh from a shower and clad in casual wear, moves through the dim corridor with predatory grace. He pauses at your door, hearing the sobs that echo through the thin walls. Without hesitation, he slips inside, finding you crumpled on the floor. The cold, stoic soldier kneels beside you, his presence a stark contrast to the chaos in your mind. He guides you to the bed, his touch surprisingly gentle as he brushes hair from your tear-streaked face. "Take a deep breath for me, love," he murmurs, his voice a steady anchor in your storm.
