obsessed w all the Mike Walters (species) who have place names like its SO interesting that in a world with instant travel geographic places are still important to certain characters' personal/ascribed identity, even when the Mike's stay in their respective location was temporary

Lmao the mental image of Simon being high and obsessed with Gaz is too good😭I’d love to see where you take it!

I have been looking at this ask at least once a week since GhostGaz Week! Please have a little bit that comes after the prompt: April 23 - date night // “sleep with me”

GhostGaz Week Masterlist

It’s the sun that wakes Simon up. At first, he thinks he forgot to close the curtain, but the light is coming from the wrong direction. He remembers the familiar walk to Soap and Roach’s place after the party, he must have slept over. Then he realizes that the pillow he’s on doesn’t smell like hair gel, the dirt of the rugby field, or lab disinfectant. The body sprawled out over his also isn’t snoring fit to wake the dead, so it’s neither of his team mates.

When he remembers who’s bed he’s in, his eyes fly open and he stops breathing. Kyle’s face is right there, the gentle puffs of his breath ghosting over Simon’s collarbones. The memories from the night cycle back. The way Kyle had leaned in and fed him bites of his own food after stealing some of Simon’s. His hand, warm and strong where it held Simon’s as he’d had a good-natured argument with Soap about something Simon hadn’t cared enough to pay attention to. The way Kyle had reeled him into his room when Simon had offered to sleep on the couch.

Even this early in the morning, his thoughts race and trip over each other. Should he get up? He’ll have to pee soon, and it'd be good to get them both something to eat. Is it rude to root around in the fridge? Sure, he’s helped himself before, but that was as Soap or Roach’s guest, not Kyle’s not-quite-hookup. Maybe he should hit the cafe down the street. But what if Kyle thinks he just up and left and isn't coming back? What if he wakes up alone and gets sad? What if he expects Simon to leave, and then it's weird if Simon comes back? Would it be weird to take his keys to make sure he can get back into the building? What if Kyle's not a breakfast person? What time is it? Is it brunch time? He can't bring Kyle a bagel in bed if its brunch time, brunch is for tables. Roach would judge him.

“I can hear you thinking,” Kyle mutters without opening his eyes. He pets a hand down Simon’s chest in a move that is both soothing and electrifying. “Relax, babe.”

“Sorry,” Simon whispers back. He makes himself unlock, muscle group by muscle group, the way his therapist taught him.

Kyle chuckles when he lets all of the air out of his lungs in a whoosh. Sparkling brown eyes squint up at him. “What was that?”

“Sorry,” Simon says again.

“No, it’s not a complaint,” Kyle says, sitting up on one elbow. Simon tries not to be distracted by the fact that he’s shirtless and half hard against his hip. He hides a yawn in the bend of his elbow before grinning down at Simon again. “Should probably get up. Hungry?”

Simon means to say What do you want to do? Or I could eat. What comes out is “I want to eat you.”

He groans, face going hot as Kyle laughs hard enough to fall back onto his chest. Instead of smothering him to put him out of his misery, Kyle regains his composure and strokes a thumb over his eyebrow. “Maybe later. Breakfast first, hey?”

“Awright,” Simon concedes, and is rewarded with a quick peck to the apple of his cheek before Kyle rolls out of bed. He tries and fails not to stare at the geometric tattoo that snakes down Kyle’s spine before the man pulls on a loose shirt. When Kyle turns back to him with a fond smile, he makes himself sit up and scrubs at his eyes. “Where to?”

Kyle grins. “Soap tells me you like the French toast at that cafe on third.”

Kyle asked Soap about him? Simon’s stomach flutters. Then his bladder reminds him that he’s been awake for more than point five seconds, so it’s time to get up. Kyle mercifully stops looking at him to search for pants, so Simon shuffles out of the room to head to the bathroom.

And comes face to face with Soap’s grinning mug. “G’mornin’, Ghostie. Fancy meetin’ here ‘f all places.”

Kyle’s voice calls through the door. “Leave ‘im alone, Tav! We’re going to breakfast.”

“Aye,” Soap answers. “C’n ah-”

“No,” Simon says, as Kyle declares, “You’re not invited.”
