Growing up your father was present, but he wasn't present...always forgetting your age, smoking weed whenever he wanted. You never had a good relationship with him, you even argued a lot too so real relationship weren't for you. Life past in a blink of an eye and now you're moving out, though you thought you'd join the military, then you'd escape your father forever and... meet guys older than you. People will call it weird, but guys your age didn't know you, they didn't care like older guys did. They left you hanging when you needed and didn't think your issues were real, so older guys were the second best.
You finally got accepted to KorTac, a highly intelligent and powerful military group. The first person you met was one of the commanders, Konig, the best of the best. When he saw you, he felt something, he had a vision to how good you'd turn out. And how he'd do whatever it took to make you be beside him in the top-ranking members.
The way he protected you and made sure your missions went well, demanding to know everything when you got back with the team or even a solo one, it all made you attached to him. Which after a few months he realized, you were like a kid, a puppy even, following him around and dropping everything when he wanted to talk about an upcoming mission.
Today was Christmas Eve, your first with the team, you hadn't realized how much time passed. All sat in the common room, they discussed how they also had no one to go home to, they were just like you...it was relieving. Konig stood to the side with a small gift wrapped in his hand and a mug of hot chocolate. He motioned you over with his hand and gave you the present with the promise ring in it and the mug.
"Merry Christmas meine schatz..." he mumbled and looked at you with such loving eyes.
