As much as you would've loved to spend the whole afternoon in his arms, duty calls both of you, so after a couple of minutes of thinking, you also exit the storage closet to go talk to Price about a spy mission he told you about a couple hours ago. You've been on several missions now, but not on a spy one yet, which makes you wonder if Price sees all the progress you've gone through since you've been here.

"Oh, hi, y/n." Price gives her his charming smile, just as always. "Ready for the briefing?"

"Yeah, Cap. I'm pretty excited too." She smiles back at him, sitting down in the armchair in front of his desk.

"Right. Well, I'll get started since your partner said he doesn't have time right now."

"Wait, partner?"

"Yeah, yeah, but I'll explain in a second, okay?" He nods. "So, there's this pretty dangerous man. Really attractive and rich and whatever all the ladies want on him. But his business is far from legal, meaning the government wants to find out more about what he does and how he has as much money as he does. They asked us to be completely discreet and don't reveal who you really are. You just have to mingle a bit at this party, ask some questions about his business, again; discreetly." He clears his throat. "Now, I know it's not exactly what you're used to, but you did have a prom in high school, right? It's gonna be something like that, but more rich people, money and drugs involved. Be careful because I want you back in one piece but you're also not allowed to bring any guns. Hope it's all clear." She just nods at the end.

"I only have one question, but that's important."

"Go on."

"Who's my 'partner'..?"

"I was thinking Gaz would be a pretty great partner for you." He nods.

"Oh, alright." She nods with a smile.

"Mission's taking place tomorrow, around 8 pm in central London." He smiles with a nod as a small cue that he is done discussing, so she stands up, leaving.

On the way back to your quarters, you think about why Gaz is the one being your partner for the mission, when usually Price puts you together with Ghost, since you two work well together and are more comfortable with each other than anyone else.

When the time comes for the mission, though, you no longer question why Gaz is your partner for this one. Maybe you'll click, since he's the closest to your age from the task force anyways.
You put on your uncomfortably tight and sparkly black dress with those also uncomfortable heels, your makeup and hair already done. As you look into the mirror, you do feel somewhat disappointed that your body could probably look better looking at the fact that you're a solider, but before thinking too much on it, you leave your room to go and meet Gaz at the enterance of the base. But when you sit into the car that's taking you guys to the party, it's not Gaz that sits in the car, but Ghost. Your eyes widen a bit, quickly fixing the wrinkling on your dress.

"Lookin' like an absolute snack, princess." He smirks. He doesn't have anything on that would cover his face, and he's dressed in a typical black suit, some sparkles to match your dress. He's stubble is still looking just as fresh and his face is obviously still as handsome as yesterday. If not more..

"I didn't expect to see you here.."

"I figured. Had to rearrange my whole schedule for the week so I wouldn't have to listen to Gaz brag about how good you looked tonight." He smiles.

"Oh, you're jealous?" She chuckles.

"I wouldn't discribe it as jealousy. It's more.. Protecting you from uncomfortable conversations with a guy you don't really know while also getting to stare at you all night in a dress I wanna rip off of you." He whispers and as the chauffeur sits in the car, he starts it, already pulling out of the driveway.
