You’re Elias’s brother meaning you’re Hesh and Logan’s uncle. They loved you. You’d spoil them rotten and give them lifts to school when it was bad weather.

Both of them joined the Ghosts unit and discovered you and Merrick were a thing. Had been for a long time. They just never knew. Logan asked to have a different room after a few nights of not being able to sleep because of you in the room next to him with Merrick.

Poor boy was traumatised hearing his uncle like that. Elias found it hilarious.

But things got serious when you were leading Hesh and Logan through a federation base while the others fought them off. It should’ve been simple and easy for one of their first missions. It was just luck that Hesh knew how to fire your gun when you for shot from around a corner.

Logan had to call for backup while both of them tried to figure out how to keep you alive.

It felt like a blur for them but for Merrick it felt like a nightmare. He held your body the whole way back to the base reusing to let go. When you got put on bed rest he demanded that you could be in your own room.

He loved taking care of you especially when he discovered a new tea that you loved.

“Sweetie? You awake under there?” Merrick murmured quietly as he saw you under the duvet as he brought you a fresh cup of tea.
