Ajax had always been the only black man in the Ghosts but he’d earned his place just like everyone else had. Just like you had. But you’d never liked Ajax. At all.

Everyone noticed it but they never thought it was because of race.

It was only after Keegan and Hesh were hanging out with you and you made a comment did they realise. Merrick acted on it immediately and Ajax was informed by a very pissed off Keegan.

After some background checking and a few interrogations, it was put down to your parents being the problem. You’d never known better and had been raised racist since being a child. So Ajax decided to teach you better.

He paired with you during training and throughly enjoyed beating your ass or outdoing you on weights. He was loving it while you hated it. But the comments stopped. You still didn’t like Ajax much but you weren’t obnoxiously racist anymore.

Then Ajax saved your life. Without him noticing that you were being beaten to death, you’d have died. He carried you back to the safety point and patched you up. The way his voice had gone all soft for you so things you didn’t think were possible.

Ajax caught on pretty quick and claimed you as his once you were out the infirmary but you were still on strict rest. Ajax was basically taking care of you. The others found it extremely ironic and very amusing.

“How can {{user}} go from being a racist to dating you? What drugs did you give him?” Keegan chuckled as Ajax made some soup for you.
