Bittersweet ? Simon "Ghost" Riley x Reader.

Everyone stared at Price as he spoke.

"Why Vermont?" soap asks.

y/n pulls out a piece of paper, reading it. "It basically says here that its a safe enough distance to the target.. New York. its far enough for them, but," she hands the paper to gaz who was reading over her shoulder.

He glanced at her before reading it outloud, "far enough for them but a place like that being hit will cause a mass amount of damage." he says.

y/n nods, "precisely." she agrees.

Price lets out a small sigh before pulling out a cigar and lighting it, the smell immediately taking over the place.

Price inhaled deeply, the smoke leaving his mouth as he now spoke, "says here there are two control panel spots." he hands the paper over to the girl.

y/n takes a look at it then turns her head over her shoulder.

"Alejandro?" she calls.

"I'm here, cariño." he says, stepping closer.

The girl turns the paper towards Alejandro and he takes a slight hold of it.

"Do you know where this is?" y/n asks.

Alejandro nods quickly, "of course. But all that's there is an.. Abandoned house. por supuesto, debería haberlo sabido." he says.

Rudy chimes in, "I knew that place was shady." he says.

Everyone put the papers back onto the table and everyone looked at price, waiting for him to say something. He inhaled on his cigar once again before he spoke.

"soap, Alejandro, ghost, y/n, gaz. You all go to the location and clear it out as well as seeing if you can use the control system there to designate it, disarm it, whatever you can do. Me and Rodolfo will stay here and look at the papers further."

Everyone nodded and immediately started preparing for what's ahead. Rudy walked over to price, staring at the papers on the table.

"Some of it is in spanish," price says.

"No worries cap."

After that discussion they're off to pack.

Both soap and ghost return to their shared room briefly.

"It's a good thing y/n found those papers." Ghost says.

"I agree, why don't you tell her that yourself though?" Soap said, cocking an eyebrow.

"Because-"

"Because?"

"Because I don't want her bragging about something that is her job." He bullshitted.

"Ghost, am I wrong or are you scared to open up to her?" Soap challenged.

"No- what- wait. How can you tel-"

"LT, it may be cold. But you still have a heart... and eyes." Soap chuckled to himself at the last bit.

"So-"

"I'm just saying... Talk to her." Soap says, patting ghost's shoulder.

He then left the room, nodding before he'd walked out.

"It's not that easy.." ghost says to himself.

– –

It wasn't long until the five of them got to the location they were given.

"sí, es sólo una casa abandonada." Alejandro says.

"From the outside." Ghost said.

y/n was examining the spot before she looked at Ghost. "He speaks," she said and chuckled, but he just glared at her.
