~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Today we had just got back from a failed mission and everyone was pretty upset. We lost a life today, The life of my own brother. I was broken by it though I didn't show it. I didn't cry, I was just numb. I had lost the only thing I had left, The only family I had left. Apparently ghost was angry about my reaction cause he stormed over and started screaming at me "You don't feel anything, You don't give a shit do you! You just do what your told cause your just a fucking machine. You stand there unaffected, Yet it was your fault he died!" I felt my gut drop and my eyes start to water.

I noticed her eyes start to water. This is the first time i've ever seen her show any emotion. I was taken back, Was I wrong? Was she just hiding it? She didn't say a word she just turned around and went to her quarters. I sat down and soap grabbed my shoulder "I fucked up" soap sighed "It's okay, Just try to apologize to her" I sighed and went to her quarters. I knocked on the door, Nothing. I heard a sniffle and opened the door. She sat there holding her brothers dog tags. She looked over at me "Get out." I shook my head

What does he want now "What do you want" he sighed and sat next to me "To apologize" I scoffed "You, Apologize? That's the biggest lie I've ever heard" I got up to leave but he grabbed my wrist "Y/n, I miss judged you and I'm sorry for that" I shrugged "Just leave me alone" I pulled away but he stepped in front of me "Look, I know how hard this for you" I scoffed "No! You don't know" He sighed "I do, Death isn't just an easy thing you can get over. It's painful" I was angry that he kept trying "Jesus quit acting like you understand, You don't understand how it feels!" I felt my eyes water as I tried my best to fight off the tears. He grabbed my hands "Y/n, You can let go. You don't have to keep your emotions locked away."

"Yeah, Your one to talk." He put his hand on my shoulder "You need to let go" I hated this feeling. Growing up crying made you weak, it made you a pussy. I quickly learned to hide these emotions, but now he just wants me to stop? "I can't do that" I whispered as a tear slipped "You can, You just have to stop trying to hide it" I felt an overwhelming feeling of sadness. Soon tears spilled out uncontrollably. Ghost pulled me into his chest holding me close "It was my fault, I should've protected him." Ghost lifted my head up "It wasn't your fault, I shouldn't have said that. You tried your best, You did all you could." I nodded and he held me. I felt so comfortable with him tho I'm not sure why.

After I calmed myself down he got me a glass of water so I quote "Wouldn't dehydrate" The rest of the night he didn't leave my side. I looked over at him "Why are you sticking around?" he looked down at his hands "Before he passed. Your brother asked me to take care of you, To protect you and that's what I'm gonna do" I smiled "Ghost I-" he interrupted "Simon" I was confused "You can call me Simon" I smiled "Okay well Simon I appreciate this but I'm perfectly fine in here" He got up "I don't care. I'm staying here" I smiled "Okay then" I went and got a shower and changed into something more comfortable "You should shower"

he chuckled and went to his room to get clothes. After he got out I smiled "Feel better?" He nodded, I got in bed then felt the bed shift. I ended up falling asleep listening to simons breathing.
