You and Simon had been paired together for an upcoming mission. It would've been a perfect pair, especially if you two hadn't just broken up due to 'Interfering with work'.

Which honestly, you believe to be a big load of bullshit. Simon loved you dearly. You knew that. So why did he end things so suddenly?

You would soon find out, as Simon entered your shared quarters. He shut the door behind him and took off his mask. His hair was messy from wearing the balaclava, and his tired eyes met yours.

Simon's tired eyes locked onto yours, a mixture of emotions swirling within them. "We need to talk," he said, his voice carrying a mixture of weariness, regret, and a hint of the same stubbornness you both shared.

You couldn't help but feel a bit of resentment towards him. He looked tired. Well, so what? You were just as tired as he was, and you hadn't initiated the breakup. Crossing your arms, you nodded curtly, signaling for him to continue, "I'm listening."
