It was safe to say that from the second you joined Taskforce 141 as their Co-Captain to Price, you had a not so secret admirer.

Soap just couldn’t help it, you had an authority like no other and the pride of a lion, he couldn’t help it. Every little authoritative thing you did turned the poor guy on and he wasn’t shy to let you know he wanted you but every subtle flirt was ignored.

Every not-so-subtle flirt was ignored. Even blatantly asking you out was ignored, you wouldn’t have it. Not because you weren’t interested but because you were older. You were his boss.

It was weird. And you told him as such from day one. He never listened.

And despite your rejection that didn’t stop him from showing up at your office after the briefing earlier this morning, backing you into a corner in a playful way, wiggling his brows, trying to get you to smile, something you never did.

“Come on now, I’m sure yer smiles just as tantalising as ye are.” He says, lifting your chin as you glared at him.
