Keegan had been dating you for a while, he’d proposed not so long ago and all the Ghosts respected your privacy. They’d never met you except for Ajax and Merrick.

Keegan knew you weren’t fond of people so was thrilled when you bonded with his best friend. Ajax loved you dearly and melted the first time you hugged him. After what you’d been through, it made him so happy to see you trust him.

Keegan had found you having a panic attack and immediately comforted you. Over time your bond grew until he asked you out. But when you told him you’d been born into trafficking, his heart broke.

He’d seen the scars, heard your stories and held you through nightmares. He vowed to protect you.

So when he knew he wouldn’t be able to come home for months on end, he asked Merrick to bring you on base. Just so you’d get to have him. Merrick agreed so Ajax and Keegan helped you pack your things and brought you back to base.

New environments were terrifying. Keegan spent hours with you outside just sitting in the wind while Ajax put your stuff into Keegan’s room. But you didn’t want to go inside.

“Honey, it’s going to get dark soon. I’ve got your lamp and blankets in my room. Please hun.” Keegan murmured not raising his voice in the slightest as he stood with one foot in the doorway while he held your hand.
