My childhood is gone and I burnt it down just to feel the warmth.

2023 Buck is 24

Location: Los Angles California

Buck watches his husband walk out with a frown throwing his head back, saying his night prayer holding his tags with Shark who joins him time to time. "So Pit is that stick going to stay rammed up your ass so none of the 118 has a chance to know the real you?" Buck shrugs rolling his eyes at the voice in his coms with scoff. "Not a pleasure trip Oli, I didn't ask to come here I rather be undercover in a prison than be on a protection order with Robert." Buck says softly rubbing his thumb across his St Benedict medal that his mom gave him. 

"You still have that I see Evan." Buck looks up rolling his eyes nodding his head tucking it away crossing his arms putting the pistol in it's holster. "Yup I did, never gets taken off Captain Nash." He says in a smug voice looking at the older man who sighs biting his lip. "I just wanna say that the guess room is made for you to."

"Respectfully Captain Nash, that now how things work. We are trained to sleep sitting, standing, kneeling any position you can think of and because we are on duty 24/7 we are to guard doors which means if we are sleeping it is set in front of the doors." Buck says in his leader voice just show his father he is not afraid of him anymore and he does not have a choke hold on him.

"I-I is this how it gonna be son-" Buck stops him raising a hand shaking his head finding his respectful voice not wanting to hear it. "I am not your son Captain Nash, all do respect you lost that right to claim me the day mom died. You lost it to Steve my dad, the day you told me I was a disappointment for being a cop." He stops there because Sargent Grant does not deserve the disrespect that he gave her earlier which he will say sorry for. 

"Evan I am sorry." Bobby pleas making Buck shut down Shark wincing telling the others they owe him thirty dollars for Buck shutting down already. "Sir, please keep this professional, I am here to do one job and one job only. Keep you, your team and my team alive and unharmed, that is as far as this goes Captain Nash so please refer to me as Buck or  Master Chief Petty Officer Kinard or because my husband is at your station Mcgarrett." Buck eyes within a blink goes blank and cold sending a shiver down Bobby's spine a shudder ripping through his body.

"Help yourself to anything in the kitchen the both of you." Bobby says before dimming the light so there enough for them to move around. "That was quick." He hears Cage's voice through the coms making Buck scoff. "Not even twenty-four hours and you have managed to shut down and push everyone away." Wolf voice snarks when he hears Tk scoff at them with Buck. 

"Maybe Nash shouldn't be pushing himself onto Pit." Tk growls through the coms making Buck smirk shaking his head. "Thank you Strand, at least you get it." Buck says glaring at Shark who just snorts softly shaking his head. "We know that baby brother, just that was fast normally your the type who's more than happy to get to know people. Might bite their heads off the first few times, than you start to open up and give them a chance."

"Look I know Wolfy, it's just I am not going to allow him to hurt me again. Who says he isn't gonna slip up in a few months ya know." Buck whispers softly surprised the coms picked it up but also not surprised. "I just want to get this over with have my beautiful baby boys and go home." He says softly shaking his head when Shark frowns looking at him as they can see one another.

Two days pass and they are back at the station today Buck decides the youngest member who's working with them needs SEAL level combat training. "Ok jarhead lets see how they do hand to hand training over there with the crayon eaters." Buck says nodding everyone staring as TK makes a strike that Buck easily avoids making him laugh. "That all ya got Marine?" Making Tk laugh crossing his arm as Buck strikes him in the ribs not hard enough to break them.
