Eddie's POV:

I watched the sun come up as Buck was sleeping away in my chest. I looked over at the alarm clock sitting on my nightstand. It read, "5:41 AM." Buck was up throughout the night, his nightmares attacking him out of the blue again. Which seemed odd to me since he was doing fine before his brain bleed. To be fair This was the first night back since, but I still can't help but feel deep sorrow for him. I felt useless as I held him in my arms reminding him everything was okay and that I was here for him as he continued to cry. I was finally able to get him to calm down about 35 minutes ago. I yawn as I reach for my phone to message Bobby.

Eddie: Hey Cap, you okay if I bring Buck in today so he can hang out with the crew? Carla is off and I'm not sure if he wants to be alone.

I send the message and open up my social media. As I was scrolling through old photos of Buck, Christopher and I there was a text from Bobby that came through.

Bobby: Yeah, I don't see a problem with that. We have some visitors coming in today too, so I hope that sounds good.

I sent him a thumbs up to let him know I was good with that. I look down at Buck and start playing with his hair. A smile emits on his face as his eyes flutter open. He looks up at me, his smile only growing bigger. He squints his eyes from the sunlight emerging into the room as he yawns.

Buck: Good morning baby. He turns around and rests his head on his shoulders looking me into the eyes.

Eddie: Good morning, did I wake you?

Buck: He shook his head no. Mmmm, nope but it was nice to wake up to the feeling of you playing with my hair.

Eddie: You should get some more sleep. You barely have had any sleep since you were back. I'll go make us breakfast while you rest a little longer.

Buck just nods as he rests his head on one of my pillows and closes his eyes. I get up and decide to take a quick shower before starting breakfast for all of us. I walk into the bathroom and start the shower. As I took off my clothes and hopped into the shower feeling the cool water run down my body helping me with my sore muscles. Once I was done with washing my hair and body, I grabbed my towel and wrapped it around my waist. I look around for my clothes... odd I thought I brought them in here with me.

I walk back into my bedroom and over to my drawer. I could feel a pair of eyes on me as I rummaged through my dresser trying to find what to wear for the day. I turn around to see Buck just staring me up and down. I noticed his eyes trailing my body slowly making sure to pay attention to each part of my body. I could feel my face flush as I suddenly realized that I was indeed only wearing a towel.

Eddie: I clear my throat and adjust my towel to hide my excitement. Enjoying the view, Buck?

Buck: Mhm, I like what I am seeing. His eyes finally met mine.

Eddie: Well look all you want, I am yours. I notice a deep shade of pink invade his face as he continues to look me up and down.

I turn back around to my dresser and finally choose a pair of pants. I start looking for a shirt when I feel strong arms gently wrap around my waist. I lean my head back to get a better view of Buck as he buries his face in my neck. "Hi Buck." My voice barely comes out as a whisper. He groans in response and starts planting little kisses on my neck. I lean my head to the side enjoying the feeling of his lips on my skin. After a while he begins sucking on my neck causing a small moan to escape my lips. I felt his hands wander to my towel and begin slightly pulling at it. I put my hand on top of him stopping him as I turned around in his arms now facing him.
