Chapter Text
Johnny was a 17 year old college student home for Christmas holiday. His days being spent surrounded by siblings younger and older, even a few nephews and nieces here and there (his parents got married early and straight off the bat started popping out kids).
He loved his family with a passion.
With that said they were some little shits some times, like his older brother (older by 3 years) James. He always brought his best friend home when he was in town, which would have been fine….. IF HE WASN'T SO DAMN HOT. Johnny had had a crush on him from childhood, ever since he came here with his family when he (johnny) was only 5.
His name was Simon, Simon Riley. Soap always thought what his name would be if they got married ‘John MacTavish Riley’ or maybe even ‘ John Riley MacTavish’ he couldn't decide. That however did not stop him from writing it in every damn sketchbook he owned and surrounding it with little hearts and sketches of Simon.
Simon was a dirty blond, 6 foot s or maybe 3 and he was ripped as all heck. He really had a glow up from his shy and kinda nerdy teenage years, he was still shy but less so than back then.
His brother would tease him whenever he was caught staring for just that little bit too long for it to be a ‘straight stare’ and Johnny would go as red as a tomato every time. Simon did not seem to mind though always staring back when caught and even staring himself sometimes.
Today Johnny walked downstairs just in some gray sweats and a tight white crop top, it was just any normal morning and he went down to get some water and a snack. He walked down the stairs, eyes still slightly closed, he opened the nearest cabinet looking for anything to eat when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked back to see James seemingly asking him something, though he did not catch it due to him still waking up. “Sorry, what did you say?” he put his hand to his mouth to muffle a yawn “ i asked if you're alright, you seem all over the place?” James looked at him with a little concern in his eyes “I'm good, just didn't get that much sleep” Johnny turned around again still searching for the snacks.
“Why? Were you too busy writing fanfictions in your notebook about you and Simon living on a ranch with a bunch of kids” he said a small laugh following soon after, the care had clearly already gone. Johnny turned back around finally having found something good enough to munch on “ So what if I was, I'm allowed to have fantasies” he said back teasingly.
He heard a choke from behind his brother, looking over his shoulder he saw no other that Simon fucking riley sitting at the dinner table looking red as all hell and with one hand over his mouth the other barely holding onto a glass of iced water.
Johnny went pale white, eyes widening to an almost unnatural amount. It was quiet for a few seconds, the only sound being James at the fridge trying his hardest to stiffen his laugh and the sound of Simon trying not to choke on the water still in his mouth.
“Well good to see you to Johnny” Simon said, staring straight at the other. “Hi…” was the only thing to leave Johnny's mouth before he bolted out of the room up the stairs and into his room dropping the snacks some time in the process.
