War taught him how to survive. She'll teach him how to live.
This will be a slow burn. And eventual smut - a lot of it.
Mostly canon-compliant but with some creative liberties taken. -

Summary
“You’re out of line, sergeant,” Ghost reprimanded in a low voice, Soap refused to let that turn him on the way he knew it would, biting the inside of his cheek to stop himself from crossing every boundary known to man. Soap knew he was Ghost’s exception to almost every rule he put in front of him, the walls he built up only to allow Soap to climb over some. But the closer the other man may get to Ghost, the more he worried Soap would get hurt. Because if he burnt Soap, Ghost would not ever find it in him to forgive himself.
“You ran out of there like a penguin with it’s arse on fire, sorry that I have some fuckin’ concern. I’m sorry,” he said, letting go of Ghost’s elbow, “Just,” he sighed, “when I feel like I’m makin’ progress with you, you go all cold and shut down, fuck’s with my head, that’s all,” Ghost dropped his gaze, biting his lip, “Night, L.T.,” Soap conceded, turning his back and making his way back to the pub.

Summary
“Johnny…” he warned, voice low, “not a good idea.”
Soap gave a lopsided grin. “Why not?”
Price set the bolt carrier aside with deliberate care. “Because there’s still sand in my boots, and blood under my nails, and a certain Lieutenant two rooms away who’d break the door down if he thought I so much as looked at you the wrong way.”

Three soldiers, one safe house, a whole cache of sexual tension and a distinct lack of air conditioning. What could possibly go wrong?Series

“Welcome to Stirling Simulation Facility. Today’s exercise is designed to test infiltration, hostage recovery and threat elimination under dynamic conditions.”
Any team member who suffers a simulated fatal injury will be extracted immediately. No second chance. No heroic recoveries. You’re dead. You’re out. Your team continues without you.”“I thought Ghost didn’t do training runs.” The voice came from further away and Stich glanced over to see Captain Ellis step closer to the glass.
“He doesn’t.” One of the other higher ups said with a nod. “God only knows why he agreed to do one now.”

Simon’s chest caved in on itself. He would have dropped to his knees if the tiny bundle hadn't locked eyes with him over Soap's shoulder.

Summary
“Do us a favour and set us an alarm for six, before we sleep,” John hummed, making the mental note for later. But his thoughts were soon shelved when he felt Simon bit down on his collarbone.
The buzzing on a phone broke through Simon’s sleep, an ache was felt through his body, one that he welcomed happily along with the memories of what had happened only a few hours prior. Instead of being able to continue on last nights events, Simon turned around to find John’s side of the bed empty and the sound of the shower echoing through the room. Simon shifted over the John’s side of the bed, looking to turn off the alarm. However, John’s phone was nowhere to be found, the sound of the running water was accompanied by John’s music.
“Shit,” Simon hissed, clambering back to his side of the bed, picking up his buzzing phone. It was nearly nine o’clock, and this was not the first phone call that had come through; he was meant to be on his way to Manchester by now.
_-_-_-_
What if Simon still owned Tommy and Beth's house, but no one knew, so when he has to rush out one morning to help sort the plumbing, Johnny is left to jump to conclusions.

Summary
Soap smirks, leaning back into the chair. “Aye. Well, I do like makin’ an entrance.”
Ghost’s eyes gleam, the hint of amusement barely concealed. “Nearly made an exit.”
------------
During a mission in Cairo, Soap gets beaten half to death. Ghost saves him, at a cost: he now has a chip in his brain and must learn to live with it. If his body rejects it, he will die. Also, they’re like really horny. Constant on-field banter. Shameless flirting. High-stakes smut.

Summary
Twenty-four hours ago, a coalition of dedicated men and women from around the world stopped a nuclear Holocaust. Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley had watched a sergeant, his sergeant, take a bullet to the head. For the second time in his career, he felt truly unhinged. Rage, all molten magma and overwhelming pressure, poured out of him and for a moment he truly was the God of Death. Blades snapped off in bone, throats torn out with bare hands, and the screaming. A howling that had the Konni soldiers faltering as he tore through them…only stopping when he caught Makarov by the arm…and then it was just long enough to let the subway train carry him further down the collapsing tunnel. He had, in a fit of wrath, wanted to keep the limb…a dedication to the sergeant he hadn’t realized meant so much to him until it was all too late.
Until it wasn’t.

Summary
A genetically enhanced super-soldier with commitment issues steals a nuclear key, lies to her entire squad, and becomes the center of a love triangle between two dangerously hot killers on a train to Moscow. She's not here to save the world, she's here to finally be free, get laid, and maybe commit a little light treason.
Unfortunately for everyone, she's excellent at all three.

Summary
She didn’t ask to be transferred to 141—she was just dumped there, after a classified mess no one talks about but everyone thinks they know.
The gossip got there before she did: difficult, unstable, insubordinate. And maybe that’s true. It’s easier to bite than to bleed in front of people who already decided you’re a liability.
Ghost doesn’t say anything. He just watches.
She pokes. He doesn’t flinch.
What follows isn’t friendship. It’s not romance either. It’s a ceasefire between two broken weapons—drawn to each other by something sharp, dangerous, and strangely safe.
It’s not love. It’s war—with safe words.Content warnings: Graphic violence, combat, PTSD, power imbalance (hwc), restraints, emotional trauma, explicit sexual content, references to past abuse and coercion. Themes of trauma bonding, morally gray behavior, and psychological tension.
Note: Not a dark romance in the toxic sense. No abuse or cruelty between leads. This is a slow burn about consent, mutual care, and two damaged people building something rough but real.

Summary
This is a Call of Duty/Stardew Valley Crossover!
Note: I have played Stardew Valley a lot, and understand a lot of the relationships/storylines etc. Though with CoD, I’ve only played the first half of the MW Campaign, I understand some of the characters/lore etc.
Simon Riley and the 141 had retired.
It was the beginning of a new life. Or the return of the past.
Inheriting his Grandfather’s farm was probably the best thing for him. A new life, at his own pace.

Summary
“Ghost! How goes it, mate?” A larger man with a beard walks over to him, Ghost thinks his name is Hugh, wrapping his arm around Ghost’s shoulders to bring him in. It’s something Ghost would typically shove someone away for, but it lets it happen, the smell of whiskey and food.
Hugh leads him to a table that sits four other men, Ghost can’t remember their names but something tells him he will. This is a rare thing to happen for him, for people to want his presence around them. It’s normal for people to call him a hero and leave at that but not to actually sit with him.

Summary
Simon "Ghost" Riley never thought he'd be capable of love—let alone fatherhood. But when Johnny gives him a daughter, Ghost is forced to confront his deepest fears and insecurities. As he navigates the unfamiliar terrain of fatherhood, he slowly realizes that the hands that once knew only violence can offer comfort, protection, and love.
From the tender moments of her birth, to the warmth of cuddling on the couch, to watching her grow into a feisty toddler, Simon learns that perhaps, just maybe, he was made for this after all.
