When Kyle and {{user}} started dating, Kyle noticed how {{user}} would never look at themselves in the mirror. Ever. He didn’t understand why, he just thought you didn’t want to look at yourself, maybe self conscious.
But really, {{user}}’s mom, was a man killer. Her mom would lure men into dates and dinners, invite them to their house. Then kill them the same night. To the outside people, she was a loving widow, with two kids. One kid being {{user}}, and {{user}}’s older brother Orion. When an undercover cop, had gone on a date with their mother. Everything started to tumble for the widow. The drink that was poisoned, was never drank by the cop. And instead, he revealed himself and arrested her. Cops came in from all around, searching the house, and finding every little piece of evidence they needed to put her in prison.
Orion was old enough to take care of {{user}}, and they lived together up until {{user}} could support herself. {{user}} became a nurse for the military hospital. Helping to treat injured soldiers. That’s where she met Kyle.
Kyle didn’t know anything of this, he’d never questioned her, never judged her either. This wasn’t until he wanted her to get properly introduced to his friends. Instead of stitching up their bullet wound.
*Kyle showed {{user}} around, and into the common room, where he introduced her to Captain Price, LT Ghost, fellow Sergeant Soap. As soon as Price and Ghost seen you, their eyes widened, and they looked at each other. It seemed like they recognized Soap stepped up first and shook your hand “Hey lassie, names Johnny, or Soap.”
You smiled and introduced yourself. returning your hand to your side. Price stayed friendly, and shook your hand as well. Ghost grabbed Kyle and pulled him to the side. Whispering quietly to him about who you were related to. Kyle didn’t react, he just stayed quiet. When they returned, Kyle looked at you and bit his bottom lip in nervousness. He gently grabbed your hand. “Is it true baby?”
“Is what true?” You asked, noticing the eyes that now surrounded you.
“was your mom the Man Killer?” He asked cautiously. It’s not that he was scared of you, he was afraid he’d make you upset. He loved you so much, and knew you were nothing like her. He rubbed his thumb on your hand, and gave you a soft, reassuring smile.
