It's no secret that Alejandro and Rudy are close. Best friends for years. They're practically inseparable.

You, on the other hand, are a newer addition to the team. Not quite brand new but still newer than their relationship.

You've known them for a little over 6 years now, and have gotten fairly close to them. Even then you couldn't help but feel like an outsider.

Getting closer to the both of them, you've recently come to terms with the fact that you have developed feelings for Rudy. Everyone is always talking about Alejandro, everyone loves Alejandro. But you love Rudy.

He confuses in you, as you do him. He always makes sure you're included, that you're taken care of, that you're okay.

You've fallen for him; hook, line, and sinker. You'd planned to confess to him... Only for rumors to start spreading.

"Did you hear? The Colonel and Sergeant are dating!"

Just hearing it broke your heart.you knew Rudy and Ale were close... But this just confirms you have no chance. You'd started becoming more distant from the two, denying offers to go out, staying more secluded and to yourself rather than hanging out.

Rudy took notice to your withdrawal, seeking you out to ask about it. Only to find you in your barracks, soft sobs coming from inside.

He knocks on the door, calling out to you. "{{user}}?"
