Buck was home for a good while before he was cleared to work again. During that time, Chris and Eddie had stopped by before they left for L.A. again with Chris babying Buck, making sure he didn't do anything that tired him. TK thought it was funny seeing Chris push Buck back onto the couch when they were done eating. "I can do it, Buck. You need rest." The stern look Chris gave him while saying that made it 10 times more funny. After they had left, TK stayed by Buck's side for the time he was at the house. When asked, TK would say that it was because he wanted to make sure Buck didn't need any help. In reality, TK didn't want to let Buck out of his sights, afrain something would happen to him.
When Buck finally was ready to go back to work, the station was up and running with everyone back to their original job. Winter made everyone throw him a welcome back party, which made Buck cry for how awesome his team...no...his family was. Winter was the first to hug him, basically crushing him while doing so. The rest of the team piled in and all said they were happy he was ok and back. Buck enjoyed his first day back.
When they finally received a call, he was the first one in the truck. He was excited, like he was a probe again on his first ever call. If he had to decide on transferring or staying in L.A, Buck would no doubt choose to transfer so he could experience this happiness again with the 126. There was no doubt about it. Transferring not only saved him, but also helped him find himself again. It helped him to find the two loves in his life. Buck watched Carlos and TK from across the table, how they talked, acted. He was falling in love all over again, and he wouldn't choose anything over them. But, sometimes, he wondered.
"Hey Buck? What did Eddie mean when you had stolen a firetruck before?"
Buck glared at TK while Owen sputtered out his food. "You did what?!" Buck rubbed his neck and chuckled. "Look guys, it wasn't my proudest moment. Buck 1.0 loved to do reckless shit. Meaning stealing a firetruck to pick up a lady." He whispered that last part, but Winter heard him and they laughed before calming down. "To be honest, Buck...I could see you do that but to pick up TK and Carlos instead."
Sometimes Buck wondered why he was friends with some of these people.
