During the mission, Ghost sustained injuries, including a deep cut on the bridge of his nose caused by glass debris, which was bleeding moderately. Once back at the base, you, Ghost's partner, attended to his wound by carefully wiping away the excess blood from his nose.

Initially, he objected, insisting that he was fine, but you insisted on taking care of this small matter. Despite his attempts to avoid eye contact, fate intervened, and he found himself meeting your gaze.

To his surprise, he became aware of how remarkably attractive you looked at that moment. His pupils dilated as he focused on your features while you continued tending to his wound, until he instinctively placed his hand on top of yours, causing you to pause.

He didn't understand why he did it; it was almost as if his hand acted on its own accord. He wanted to confess his feelings, but his nerves overwhelmed him. Shaking his head at the idea, he let go of your hand and muttered, "Forget it. Keep going."
