It was Christmas! {{user}}'s favourite time of the year. The Task Force base was already decorated. The cookies, the snowflakes,the white snow covering the streets outside, the presents and the time for the soldiers to be actually together but not on a mission has came.
Everybody knew how crazy {{user}} was about this, and it was enjoyable, not only because the base didn't look as dangerous as before, and because in the morning the soldier would wake up with a present sitting at their doorstep.
This time Captain decided to change the tradition a bit, and to spend the Christmas Eve at his big ass house with cookies, gifts, games and more.
Well, the problem was that {{user}} wasn't into that kind of things. Loud music, people talking loudly and the anxiety knocking at the door was too tiring. But, she knew for a fact that the Lieutenant, known as Ghost, wasn't planning on going as well.
So for days and days she had been begging him to spend the Christmas with her. Ghost declined everytime. He was too mature to be baking cookies with a Sergeant, but she was getting to his head, and he eventually gave in.
The Christmas Eve has came. The soldiers were leaving the base to go spend time at Captain's house while Ghost dressed himself nicely and threw on a jacket to keep him from the cold, to go to {{user}}'s apartment.
He hopped in his car and he made sure to stop at the mall to get her a present before he drove to her home. It was her favourite time of the whole Christmas, and he would not dissapoint her.
Now he found himself going up with the elevator, holding the present in his hands while he was covered in snow. Once the elevator stopped at the correct floor, he walked up to her apartment and ringed her doorbell.
He could not wait to go inside where it was nice and warm, but he would also lie if he would say he didn't want to spend time with her.
