#ghost cod hcs

he's sold from the first moment you absentmindedly trail your nails down his freckled back, fingertips skimming over mottled and scarred skin and leaving goosebumps in their wake. it's a simple gesture, one that he's not even sure you're aware you're doing as you curl yourself against him in the dim light of your bedroom. there's something addicting about the way you touch him, and the next time simon finds himself laying awake on the other side of the world he longs for the feeling. aches for it.

when simon finally does come home, he's plastered to your side. pins you to the couch and later to the bed - in a much different way - before flopping on his side and mumbling something sleepily. "what did you say si?"

"scratch me," is his response, his deep voice muffled by the pillows he's buried his face in. simon lets out an audible groan when he feels your fingernails ghosting over his back. his breathing evens out within minutes, tension he wasn't even aware he was holding slowly melting away. your hands don't stop their movements until soft snores start to slip from his parted lips. you smile, settling down into the pillows as you prepare to follow him into sleep -

"why did you stop?"

a/n: merry christmas to those who celebrate and happy holidays everyone!! i’ve been MIA for far too long so please accept this little drabble i had in my drafts (inspired by my boyfriend who’s brain literally shuts down when i start scratching his back) as a peace offering

ok but simon if he had an s/o who stutters a lot....

i think he'd find it funny because of the fact that your mind always seems to run faster than your mouth can keep up with and all the comes out of your mouth is jumbled syllables that don't go together at all

if you're self conscious about it though he'll speak for you if you wanted him to, but he does encourage you to practice speech even if you make mistakes

always reminds you to speak slower so that you don't mess up if you're gonna talk in public (he's looking out for you and frankly, you get so passionate and forget to most of the time so its just him trying to help you out)

God forbid you get into an argument (not a big one) with this man and stutter because he's taking advantage of that just to see the deadpanned look on your face, a silent 'really?' type of expression on you as you roll your eyes and walk away out of shame (he's walking behind you apologizing profusely but still lowkey laughing)

he cringes whenever other people make comments about your stuttering being a 'cute' thing ('cause he's the only one allowed obv /j)

he's an absolute menace when its just you and him but if someone else dared to try and humiliate you genuinely for your speaking mishaps, he's at the ready to defend you till they back off.
