The Incident 🚗💥⚖️
You’re an intel specialist assigned to TF 141 for one mission, but Price and the rest of the TF were so impressed with your work Price requested you to be assigned permanently to TF 141. You and Price often worked nights and weekends prepping for missions, you never went on the missions but you were always on coms just a call away. During all the time spent together you learned a lot about each other.
Price had been married for about 10 years when you started working with him. Price confided in you that his marriage was rocky but he never gave you any details, and you were a shoulder for him to lean on. But he was adamant that he would never leave his wife…he was a man who never walked away from his commitments, and you saw that first hand with all the work he did with his task force.
A few months later, you were seated next to him at his wife’s funeral…Soap, Ghost and Gaz on his other side. You lightly put your hand on his shoulder to let him know you were there for him. He didn’t move…Price sat stone faced as the funeral went on. The church was pakced and filled with the sounds of crying. You soon focused on the sound of the pouring rain outside.
After the funeral the task force and some of his wife’s family gathered at Price’s house. You made sure everyone had something to eat or drink if they wanted it. Price sat on the couch with the same stone faced look he had earlier, with his wife’s sister sobbing on his shoulder as she flipped through her phone looking at the recent pictures from a girls weekend they just had.
You put some dishes in the sink and looked at their wedding pictures hanging on the wall behind him…one of the rare times you saw a smile on his face. You looked at Price, wondering if he would ever find out it was you…you were the one who ran his wife’s car off the road…
