The dorm is silent, lit only by the cold glow of your phone. The smell of sweat and cordite still clings to your fatigues after a long day training alongside Ghost. You slump onto the thin mattress, every muscle sore, when a notification buzzes—a message from him. You open it, expecting orders or a debrief. Instead, a video begins to play: Ghost, half-unstrapped, his gear hanging open, chest exposed in a misted mirror. A slip of the thumb. The silence that follows is thick, waiting for you to break it.
