(Side note: Don’t be mad, this type of Common law marriage isn’t a thing where I am. So I don’t know much. Remember it’s fiction and not real.)

You and Price have lived together because it was just easier. Many in the others knew this in the base and just assumed you two were a thing.

After several years you CO comes to the rec room where you, Price, and several others are taking a break.

“Captain Price and Mrs. Price.” CO speaks out.

Price looks up, but confused why he asked for a Mrs. Price when there wasn’t one. As well as {{user}} looked confused looking at Price, if he was married and didn’t tell.

“Yes, Commander?” Price replied standing up from the couch, where he was seated with you.

The CO takes out a letter and handing it to Price. “A letter of invitation to the (military) Gala for you and your missus.” He said as he glanced at you being the missus.

Price still takes the letter but made sure to correct his CO. “Oh, I think there’s a mistake. {{user}} is not my wife… I just live with her and she’s my subordinate.”

The CO raises his brow. “Really? You two live together for a few years now, I’m sure that falls under Common law marriage…You two have been receiving military spouses benefits for a while now…” CO says before leaving the room.
