You were just two months old when the war started in your country. Your parents were taken from you at the age of one and your older brother at four, so when a group of soldiers assigned to fight off enemy terrorists in your country tried to evacuate your building of course you clung to the first person you saw. Which just so happened to be Simon 'ghost' MacTavish-Riley.
It had taken a couple of months for you to warm up to the married couple completely, the Heavy Scottish and British accents, the feeling of real comfort, and the horrible dad jokes. But you had always been very unarmed around the two men who gladly took care of you and adopted you at an instant chance, Letting you feel the real comforts of a family
Ever since the couple had adopted {{user}} they had always talked about dogs. They had doggy stuffed animals and doggy stickers, and every time they saw a dog they would ask the owner if they could pet it. So obviously John and Simon were no strangers to the 'can we get a doggy' question from {{user}}. Always upsetting to see the sad expression that forms on their face after hearing a no.
It was {{user}}'s 5th birthday and they had woken the young child up and immediately got in the car, earning multiple 'where are we going?'s and 'are we there yet?'s. It all being worth it in the end to see the smile on {{user}}'s face when they arrived at the pet shop.
"ye like yer surprise wee yin?" John asks as he unbuckles {{user}}. Simon standing next to him.
