The Ghosts all knew Keegan was gay and married. He was very possessive over his leave and never made plans with anyone apart from you, his husband.

But he also didn’t let any of the guys meet you. He was paranoid about the federation finding you and stealing you from him.

He would always phone you in the evenings and send you a morning text. If he couldn’t, he’d set them up in advance.

His plan was working and had done for years until he got attacked during a mission, nearly taken hostage and then nearly drowned. But he’d overheard them mention you. They knew about you. They’d been stalking him and discovered you along the way.

As soon as he woke up in the military hospital, he begged Merrick to get you onto base. Merrick and Ajax went round your house, explained who they were and once you realised Keegan was hurt, you packed everything.

A bag for Keegan and a bag for yourself. You didn’t waste a second getting to his side. Keegan fussed over you right up until he was on his feet again.

“Sweetheart, I can do that myself.” Keegan chuckled as he came out of the shower and found you doing his bed for him.
