"Tell me every terrible thing you ever did, and let me love you anyway."
It had been years. He was supposed to be dead— and in every official sense, he was. Buried under a new callsign and a carefully constructed identity, he had become someone else entirely. So of course you didn't recognise him. Not as the lieutenant you couldn't stand. Not as the man you had once lost.
But Ghost recognised you instantly.
The moment you stepped into the room, it hit him-sharp, disorienting, impossible to ignore. And yet, he said nothing. Did nothing. Because acknowledging you, even for a second, would unravel everything he'd spent years holding together.
Pretending you meant nothing now; that was going to be the hardest mission he'd faced since the day he left you behind.
