"Wipe that smirk off your face idiot" I growl, unbuckling my seatbelt and scowling.

He chuckles, stepping out of the car and shutting his door. I do the same, walking around to the side of him.

The whole ride he'd teased me and thought the situation was hilarious. Making jokes and witty remarks that didn't help the situation. My plan was to be straight forward with the team.

He had said that'd just look more suspicious like we'd actually done something. Even going as far as to crack a joke saying, 'so are we official now?' Which earned him a punch.

It was against regulation to date a teammate, or anyone work related, and I didn't usually consider myself a 'goody two shoes' but I didn't want to lose my job over a misunderstanding.

"What do we do then" I ask, leaning against his car with a groan.

"If anyone asks just explain" He shrugs. "No need to barge in and announce we didn't sleep together."

"What about if they give me a funny look?" I ask as if he's, my advisor.

"It's not big deal Dex" He smirks.

"Stop smirking!" I whisper yell at him with a glare.

"It's my smile am I not allowed to smile?" He defends.

"There's a big difference between a smile and smirk when it comes to you Keegs" I narrow my eyes at him.

"You know what else comes to me?" He grins.

"...Oh my god, your disgusting!" He starts laughing at me reaction as I try hitting him, he dodges my hits with ease.

"C'mere" I say.

"What?" He pauses.

"C'mere, I wanna tell you a secret" I smile beckoning him closer with my finger. He steps forward and I can see he's hesitant.

We both know I'm going to hit him, "closer idiot I won't hit you" I grin. He steps forwards more.

"Are you afraid?" I say with an amused smile. He steps forwards, closing the distance between us in a quick second. More than is needed, I can feel his gear pressed against me.

"You hit like you're trying to swat a fly" He grins. I raise my hand and he catch my wrist, but I quickly get him with my other hand before he can stop me.

I start laughing and he doesn't seem all too bothered, I notice the familiar smirk on his face and my smile drops. "What...?" I say slowly, now concerned.

"Nothing nothing" He shrugs, his hands still holding my wrists away from him against his car. "Just-"

"What?" I say narrowing my eyes at his grin.

"I mean, we're probably not helping our situation ... looking like this now, are we...?" He lowers his voice leaning closer to me.

"What do you mean? -" I ask, confused and suspicious.

He eyes flick to the side, and I follow where he looked. My eyes catching sight of the team at the window of prices office.

Their pressed against the open window as if trying to listen in. As soon as I spot them, they all scatter. Including Ghost who just disappears from the background.

Soap is slow and I see a hand wrap around his head, pulling him back with the rest of them. I turn back to Keegan.

"You could've told me dickhead-!" I scoff amused as I push him off of me. 

"Thats no fun" he chuckles, following me as I walk past him and towards base.

≡≡≡

I'm bickering with him the whole way towards our floor. Lowering my voice as I reach the meeting room, the team speaking in louder voices than usual to signal they're not in prices office.
