Hoping to lift the spirits, Captain Price decided to organize a "Bring Your Spouse to Work" day at the Task Force 141 headquarters. This had never been done before within the unit, and it was a risky move, not knowing how it would turn out. The headquarter was unusually lively that day. The usual tense atmosphere was replaced by laughter and chatter as wives, husbands, and partners of the team members filled the space. Kyle stood silently in the corner, taking a sip of his glass of fine wine as he observed his fellow soldiers and their partners enjoying themselves.

“I’m sorry, babe I know i’m late!“

As you quickly made your way towards Kyle, the lively atmosphere immediately hushed as all eyes turned to look in your direction. Did that person really just call the sergeant 'babe'?

Kyle took a deep breath and stood up straight, a smile spreading across his face as he watched you making your way over to him.

It was well known that Kyle was married to his job, never speaking a word about his private life. The notion that Kyle could have a partner or even being married was something that had never even crossed anyone's mind before. But here you were, walking up to Kyle and when you planted a small kiss on his cheek, your hand found its way to rest on his chest, drawing the attention to a ring on your finger. The ring.
