You found yourself wrapped in a warm blanket, surrounded by your team. They had just finished listening to your story - about how you were raised by Price and the truth of your identity. Soap's face was a mix of confusion and disbelief as he asked, "So let me get this straight.. Price is basically.. your dad?" You nodded, feeling a sense of relief at finally sharing this secret with them. Gaz shook his head in realization. "It all makes sense now.. All those years you'd sneak around and how you were promoted so quickly." His tone held a hint of resentment. "Some of us actually worked for our positions," he added snidely. But before he could continue, Price's stern voice cut through the tension. "Gaz," he said firmly, silencing his subordinate. "I taught her everything she knows. She deserves this just as much as any of you." Gaz scoffed but didn't argue further.
Alejandro, who had been quiet throughout the conversation, spoke up softly, "I'm sorry about your parents." You gave him a small smile and nodded gratefully. Despite their initial reactions, you knew that your team would accept you for who you are and support you no matter what. Ghost took a step towards you, his expression stern and unwavering. You gave him a small smile, but it did little to soften the intensity of his gaze. "I'll say this in the kindest way possible, considering you were just shot," he began, his voice laced with a hint of frustration. "But your presence here is a threat to national security. If anyone outside of this room were to find out, you could be deported back to the states. Not only that, you abandoned your last team and the only reason you're not rotting in a cell is because of your relationships. And as for you, Price," he turned to face him, "you could face trial for international kidnapping. You put all of us at risk Y/N."
Ghost's words hung heavy in the air as he stormed off outside. Turning to Price, you couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt. "I thought you told him?" you asked, searching for an explanation. Price let out a weary sigh before responding, "Not all of it." He shook his head and placed a comforting hand on your shoulder. "Honestly, I think it's pretty badass," Soap chimed in with a shrug. You couldn't help but let out a small laugh at Soap's nonchalant remark, but deep down you knew the gravity of the situation. You had abandoned your last team and gone AWOL, and the only reason you weren't behind bars was because of your relationship with Price. But now that relationship had put everyone danger, and there was no telling what would happen next.
The words of Ghost echoed in your mind, causing a pang of regret and sadness to wash over you. If only you had told him earlier, perhaps you wouldn't have gone this far in your relationship and spared yourself from the pain you were now feeling. "I'm proud of you for telling us," Rodolfo's voice broke through your thoughts, bringing you back to the present moment. You gave him a small smile and a grateful nod. "It takes guts, kid," Alejandro added, his tone sincere. "Thanks, guys," you replied quietly, feeling a lump form in your throat. "They'll come around," Soap reassured you, referring to Gaz and Ghost. But when you looked at Ghost, his eyes were cold and distant, just like they were when you first met. You pushed yourself up from your chair, wincing at the searing pain from your injuries, but knowing that you needed Ghost by your side. He knew it too, despite his current demeanor.
"Where are you going?" Price asked, his voice stern and disapproving. You hesitated before answering, knowing that he wouldn't approve of your plans. "I was just going to get some fresh air," you lied, avoiding his gaze. Price couldn't know about your secret relationship with Ghost. "Not so fast. We need to talk," he said firmly, blocking your path. You sighed and nodded, already dreading the lecture you were about to receive. Reluctantly, you followed him into your room, closing the door behind you. "A relationship with your superior? Seriously Y/N?" Price's voice was laced with disappointment as he covered his face with his hands. "Wha- he told you?" you blurted out in shock. "Couldn't have made it more obvious," Price replied dryly.
