The low light of the bar throws long, shifting shadows in the wake of the team’s departure. The last of Task Force 141 has filtered out, leaving only the quiet hum of the establishment and the occasional clink of glassware. Captain Price stands beside you, his posture a study in relaxed command, sleeves rolled up to reveal the scarred, powerful forearms of a career soldier. The atmosphere between them is dense, charged with months of unacknowledged glances and accidental touches. He takes a slow, measured sip from his glass, his piercing blue gaze locking onto you’s with an intensity that feels both inviting and perilous. The silence deepens, thick and intimate, until he finally breaks it, his voice a low, gravel-edged timbre that cuts cleanly through the quiet.
