(Sorry im really bad at english but i don't mean elias is a bad or controller fatherđđ)
I get u! I liked this ksjvauvhapreiu, They think heâll be strict, but he surprises them
anon: also they are talking about Fem reader!
Logan is not scared of much, but telling Elias that he wants to date you? That makes his stomach twist.
He knows Elias trained them hard, expected nothing but discipline, and he doesnât want him to think heâs losing focus.
He overthinks it for days, wondering if Elias will think itâs a bad idea.
Hesh notices. One day, he just gives Logan a flat look and says, "Youâre acting weird. Just tell him."
Logan finally works up the nerve but doesnât know how to start the conversation.
So logan heads up to elias, Telling hime he wanna talks about something important.
The campfire crackled in the quiet night, faint embers floating up into the cold air. Elias sat across from Logan, arms crossed, watching him with that unreadable expressionâ actually waiting for him to speak something. Logan cleared his throat, gripping the beer in his hands a little too tight.
"So," Elias finally spoke, giving a simple smile. "You gonna tell me whatâs got you looking like you just stepped on a landmine?"
Logan exhaled slowly. This was it.
"I⌠I wanna date someone," he said, voice steady despite the way his fingers fidgeted.
Elias arched an eyebrow, can't help but his smile widened a bit. "Oh?"
Logan hesitated, searching for the right words. "Itâs not just anyone. ItâsâItâs Y/N."
The silence stretched for a second. Logan braced himself for any kind of disappointing lecture that elias may give to him, for Elias to tell him that he needed to focus, that this wasnât the time for distractions. But thenâElias chuckled.
Not a mocking one. A warm, knowing one.
"Logan, son⌠I was wondering when one of you boys would finally admit it."
Logan blinked. "What?"
Elias leaned back, shaking his head with amusement. "Iâm not blind. I saw the way you look at âem...." Elias let out a sigh holding his beer "âs the same damn way I used to look at your mother."
Logan swallowed. He hadnât expected this. Not this easy acceptance, or the mention of their mother.
"You⌠you donât think itâs a bad idea?"
"A bad idea?" Elias scoffed. "Logan, if thereâs one thing I regret, itâs not telling your mother sooner that I loved her... I fought it for a long time. Thought I had more time. But war doesnât wait for love, son. You grab it when you can."
For the first time that night, Logan let out the breath he had been holding.
"So⌠youâre okay with it?"
Elias grinned, reaching over to clap a heavy hand on Loganâs shoulder. "Hell yeah, I am. Just donât be a damn coward about it, yeah?"
Logan chuckled, shaking his head. He shouldâve known Elias would see right through him.
ââââââââââ ââ ââ â ââââââââââ
Same as logan, he never opened up with elias about his emotions.
Having hard times to get to the point but then he got it!.
He runs through a million worst-case scenarios in his head.
What if Dad thinks Iâm not taking training seriously?
What if he thinks I'm slacking?
Of course he is gonna say yes but what if he feels kinda disappointed?
He practices how to bring it up but it always sounds dumb in his head.
He finally tells Elias when Logan gets tired of his whining and tells him to just do it already.
"Okay, okay, but what if he doesn't like it?"
Logan gave him a flat look. "Then what, he grounds you?"
Hesh groaned, running a hand through his hair. "Man, I donât know! I justâI respect Dad, yâknow? And if he thinks this is a bad idea, thenâ"
Logan cutting him off, deadpan "Then youâll be a grown ass man crying in his room. Got it. Just go talk to him."
So he did. Well. Kind of.
It took another hour of pacing outside Eliasâ office, logan swore that if he hadn't respected hesh he would have thrown him in the office and get done with it already, Then hesh finally knocked and walked in.
Elias glanced up, seeing Hesh standing there with his usual energyâbut there was something underneath it.
"Something you need, son?"
Hesh shifted, rubbing the back of his neck. "Uh⌠yeah. So. Funny thingâ" He broke with a very short chuckle.
Elias waited with a bit frowning eyebrows. Hesh cleared his throat.
"Iâm, uh. Iâm dating Y/N"
Silence.
Hesh Looked at everything but elias pretending he hadn't said anything.
ThenâElias just laughed.
Hesh blinked. "âŚWait, what?"
Elias leaned back, arms crossed over his chest, still smiling. "Son, Iâve known that since the second you started looking at her like she put the stars in the damn sky."
Heshâs face went red feeling the heat. "Hey now dad..."
"Oh, you do. You got my heart, Hesh. Wear it all over your face."
That shut him up. Elias softened a little, voice lowering.
"Your mother was the best thing that ever happened to me. Kept me grounded. Reminded me there was more to life than just war."
Hesh swallowed hard. Elias let out a breath, watching his son for a moment before nodding.
"Come on now...I had you in this life when i was only 23, you're 28 man up!"
Hesh wasnât expecting that level of support, but something about it made his chest feel lighter. He let out a breath he didnât realize he was holding and grinned.
"Man, I was so ready to start doing push-ups on command."
Elias chuckled. "Well, since you brought it upâ"
"Nope, I'm leaving." Elias laughed as Hesh bolted out the door.
And as Hesh walked away, he realizedâhe didnât just get his fatherâs approval.
He got his blessing.
