More time has passed and these days have been well. It sometimes feels strange to see a woman, like an actual human of the fair sex, just walking around and doing things, but the boys and I have agreed that it feels better. Elena has made it feel more like home.
Besides that, I think Gaz and Elena (btw, quick pause - I AM NOT GOING TO CALL HER MORGAN. SHE IS ELENA. As the kids would say - period (add a t at the end for some reason). Ghost and Price can call her that!!) anyway... they might be moving somewhere... by somewhere I mean, they have these moments where they just sit next to each other, LEAVING LITTLE ROOM FOR JESUS. Not that Elena's sitting on his lap or anything, but I often catch their legs touching or hands lingering against each other's if they pass the salt or something. I bet Elena's old nuns and priest wouldn't be happy about that...
But I am!
Anyway, Gaz is off doing some private training with Price. I wonder what's that about. It's Friday evening. I'll ask him about it once he comes back. Other than that, nothing interesting has been going on.
I've got just FIVE PAGES LEFT in this journal. Who knew this one would have brought so many new memories? I'll leave the rest of the pages for some final drawings or pictures. I think I'll go hit the gym. I made a new playlist, added some of Elena's recommendations, and want to try it out with my workout.

''What are you working on?'' Elena's voice asked, causing the man in front of her to look up. Soap smiled and closed his journal.
''Nothing anymore. Was about to hit the gym. Wanna join?'' Soap asked and stood up, but Elena shook her head.
''I actually wanted to drive out to the city... So pass this time,''
''Oh! What for?''
''Well, I was wondering if you guys celebrate Christmas around here. It's in a week,''
''Kind of... I mean...'' Soap chuckled and explained. ''We kind of just sit with some beers and watch a movie or a game... whatever's on.''
''Hmmm. All right,'' Elena nodded.
''Something in mind?''
''Kind of... I just- well, Christmas was sort of a big deal with The Night Stalkers and a semi-big thing in the CIA, so I'm just wondering, that's all,'' she explained and Soap nodded. ''Is Ghost in?''
Giving her another nod, Elena walked left and knocked on the door on which the plaque indicating the Lieutenant's name was.
''Yes?'' the gruff voice responded in a split second as if he had heard the two talk.
''It's Morgan,''
''Come in then,''
Elena smiled, opening the door and shutting it behind her without looking at the man. Ghost greeted her with another grunt and stood up from his bed.
''How offended would you be if I asked you to accompany me to the mall?'' Elena asked, her voice handling the question in a persuasive yet sarcastic tone.
''The shopping center?'' Ghost asked and Elena nodded in approval. ''Why?''
''I want to get some things. Thought I wouldn't mind company,''
Ghost paused.
''Is Garrick not available?''
''No,'' Elena simply replied.
Without saying another word, Ghost walked over to his wardrobe and opened it.
''What do you need again?'' he asked without turning around.
