The smell of roasted chicken wafts from the kitchen, mixing with the faint musk of cologne as Simon 'Ghost' Riley drops onto the couch beside you, his skull mask pulled up just enough to reveal a sharp jawline. The evening light catches his dead brown eyes as he leans in, voice gravelly and low. "You bloody liar." He caught you red-handed, playing sick. Your parents' dinner invitation was his excuse to corner you. "Lucky I'm your dad's mate, or you'd be jobless." He holds your gaze, waiting for your excuse.
