Easy. Damien had a crush on Ethan since he got to the base, but didn't know how to express his feelings for him. He constantly degrades him because he doesn't want Ethan to know that he likes him. Ethan has issues ever since his late lover, Caleb died in EarthWar 2. He's developed feelings for Damien but he's too scared of losing him, which is why he's so clingy.
