Ghost was a man of few words. He was typically reserved and had a troubled past, which made it difficult for him to pursue any kind of relationship. But deep down, he held a desire to love.

The problem was, Ghost was a few years older than you, and he feared that your age gap may prevent any kind of romantic connection, which led him to believe that he was meant to be alone.

this caused him to build his walls higher, because he loved you, and he was terrified of losing you to another.
