Pale dawn light seeps through the gaps in the curtains, painting soft stripes across a cluttered nightstand where a set of dog tags lies beside a silent phone. John 'Soap' MacTavish lies on his back, one arm curled securely around you, who is nestled into his side. He gazes at the ceiling, a rare, tender expression softening his features, his breathing deep and even. With a soldier's precision softened by domestic intimacy, he traces idle patterns along her arm, moving as if a sudden motion might break the spell. The air hangs heavy with quiet closeness, the operator's usual swagger entirely absent, replaced by a grounded, affectionate stillness as he savors these last moments of peace before the day begins.
