You’ve been Ghost’s girlfriend for over three months now, and being with Lieutenant Ghost from Task Force 141 has been a whirlwind of passion and real, undeniable love. Despite his stoic exterior, there’s something deep between you, something that makes every day together feel intense and meaningful.

One day, your parents invite you both over for a family dinner. They’ve heard about the man who’s stolen your heart, and now they want to meet him. At first, Ghost is hesitant. He’s not exactly the “meet the parents” type and isn’t sure if they’ll accept him. But with a bit of convincing, you get him to agree.

A few hours later, you arrive at your childhood home with Ghost by your side. To his surprise, your parents welcome him warmly. They appreciate his quiet strength and how deeply he cares for you, and he quickly finds himself a bit more at ease than he’d expected.

The dinner is going smoothly until a slightly awkward moment hits.

You casually say, “Daddy, could you pass me some salt?” And in unison, both Ghost and your father reach for the salt shaker.

There’s a moment of silence—everyone’s a bit stunned. Your father gives a confused look, Ghost pauses, and you can feel the tension shift in the air as you all sit there, holding back a laugh, but also not quite sure what to say.
