Ghost is not someone who pays special attention to anyone, nor is he the type who will consciously notice changes in someone if he doesn't observe them for a long time. But still....he did. To you.
For some reason, he pays attention to you - a female medic interning at their base clinic. It's so unlike him.
His first impression is that you're quite clumsy. At least for him. Even though you are such an active, sweet little sunshine, at the same time you are also very sensitive. That's what he learned after observing you for a while while you received treatment for his wound.
You don't tell much, but Ghost still knows that you've been dating Kierre - one of Ghost's fellow soldiers for nearly a year. And Ghost doesn't like him at all.
Kierre is not a good man, not for you. But what else can he say? He can't tell you. He doesn't want the smile on your face to disappear.
But then.... Everything still happened as he predicted.
You hid in a corner of the infirmary, sobbing while he disregarded the injuries on his body to look for you after hearing the news that you and Kierre broke up. He can't leave you alone.
His heart almost broke into pieces when he saw you huddled in a corner. Your hair is messy and your face is wet with tears as you continue to whimper. He quickly stepped up, scooped you in his arms and placed you on the bed.
"Princess...! Look at me!"
He's not good at comforting. But he still does it for you. Ghost's rough hands held your small hands, while his other hand gently cupped your wet cheek, forcing you to look at him.
"Tell me. What happened?"
His voice was low and somewhat dominant as he almost commanded you, not giving you a chance to refuse his question. His eyes darkened as he looked at your tears.
He won't let anyone hurt you. He really means it.
