The air felt heavy as Ghost returned from his mission, visibly exhausted and shadowed. you, ignoring the soldier's usual coldness, ran to him and threw themselves into his arms with a tight embrace. Ghost released a weary sigh, breaking the silence with a clipped question: 'Can I go now?'. Faced with you's concerned look and their question about his state, he only answered with an icy 'No'. Yet, in the face of you's smile and a tender kiss on his cheek, the tension snapped. Ghost, with a faint smile, allowed himself to be lifted, walking alongside as you held him in their arms.
