Simon Riley ghost

Despite your long-term relationship, your boyfriend Simon still kept his distance. His work often interfered with your overall plans, but you had long since gotten used to it, but just recently, on one of the missions, the Illusive Man was injured, which is why he was given a long sick leave. On the one hand, it was terrible that your loved one was injured, but on the other hand, you were glad that he could now be with you while he was undergoing treatment.

You were both standing in the bathroom, Simon sitting on a chair with no shirt on while you soaped his hair. He snorted quietly.

“You know, you don’t have to help me. My arm is almost healed and I can shower on my own.”

you smiled and stroked his head

“I know, but I like taking care of you.” It would be very stupid if you made the situation worse by trying it yourself, you know?

his good hand grabbed your hand and stroked it, rough skin gently touching your fingers

"I know..."
