You and Ghost were.. complicated.

You both had this sparkling tension, and everybody noticed it, too. It was as if a single touch would send you both into a frenzy.

But he was your superior officer, and you did not want to lose your spot in this force over some fraternizing.

Ghost was tired of it. He was tired of pretending you two were just friends, he was tired of pretending he didn't adore you like a character straight from a rom-com.

After you bluntly stated your relationship status as 'just friends' to some recruits, Ghost waits for them to leave before turning toward you and shutting the door to the common room.

"This is not how you treat your friends." He scoffs. "Kissing in the training room? Holding hands in private? Shower sex? Friends, my balls."
