Chapter 10

Morning came and Buck slowly woke up and blinked his eyes at the light. He realised he was on the sofa, lying down but was unsure where his head was. The last thing he remembered was he was resting on Eddies shoulder. He slowly moved and realised his head was now resting on Eddies lap and Eddie was asleep sitting up and one of Eddie's hand resting over Bucks body.

'I don't want this to end it's so nice'

Buck decides he wants to stay like this for a little longer so he just nods back to sleep smiling, after a while he is awoken when Eddie tries to lift his head gently and not disturb him which he fails.

"Hey." Buck says wiping the sleep from his eyes.

"Ah sorry, I was trying to be careful." Eddie says getting up and stretching.

"It's fine I was waking up anyway." Buck says as he sits up.

Buck looks up and stares at Eddie who looks a bit rough from sleeping sitting up, he smiles at him, who is busy stretching so he doesn't see Buck looking. He then looks down and removes the blankets off him.

"So, what you fancy for breakfast?" Eddie asks looking down.

"I'm not that hungry if I'm honest." Buck said.

"You got to eat Buck. I'll make some pancakes." Eddie explains as he heads over to the kitchen and starts to get the ingredients out and started mixing them together.

"Can I help?" Buck asks, walking over.

"No, you go freshen up. I was thinking we need chat after." Eddie says with a serious tone.

"Oh right, what about?" Buck asks concerned.

"Don't worry it's nothing bad. Just go get freshened up and I'll make the pancakes." Eddie says

'He thinks your useless he is going want you gone'

Buck heads towards to the bedroom and grabs a change of clothes and heads towards the bathroom. He closes the door and strips out of his clothes, peels off the bandages coverings his cuts. He needs to replace them, so he plans do them after he's showered. Once they're all off he looks in the mirror at his still bruised ribs along with the other bruises along his body he could feel tears forming at the state of himself.

'You deserved it all, you brought it on yourself'

He looked at his cuts and knew they would scar eventually. He shook his head and leaned in to the bath to turn the shower on once it was warm enough he stepped in and started to shower washing himself but taking his time not to catch his injuries to quick. Once he's done, he steps out and dries off and puts his clean clothes on and picks up the bag of bandages and cream and heads towards the kitchen where he can smell pancakes. He walks in and smiles at the sight of Eddie who has flour over him and looks stressed.

"What is going on?" Buck asks, smiling at the sight.

"Ermm it's all going wrong, I've burnt the first ones, then tried making more but I dropped the bag but it's going to be ready soon, so take a seat." Eddie says as he continues to pour the batter and make more.

Buck sits at the table and gets the cream out and starts applying it to his cuts, wincing at the pain as the cream settles on the wounds. He closes his eyes for a minute while he waits for the stinging to pass. As his eyes were closed, he heard something in front of him he opened his eyes to a stack of pancakes in the middle of the table.

"Give me a minute and I'll help bandage the wounds up for you." Eddie said, pouring two cups of coffee. He places them down along with the two plates and heads to the sink and washes his hands, and once his hands were dry, he heads back to the table and takes a seat next to Buck. Buck turned to Eddie and handed him the gauze and bandages. Eddie then starts to cover them with gauze first being as gentle as possible not wanting to hurt him. Once all the gauze is on he starts wrapping the bandages round them and taping them so they don't fall off.
