As morning broke Buck awoke on the sofa where he had fallen asleep minus Aaron but his head rested on a pillow from the bed upstairs and a blanket over him, as he stretched and move the sharp pain of the burn which he had fallen asleep on hit and when he placed his hand down to help raise himself up he felt the pain from the cuts on his hand, he sat up and felt the twinge in his chest and the thump on his back from his bruises, he reached over to look at the time it was 7am he was due in work in the half hour
'I can't face them today it will be so awkward, I don't want people saying I'm making it all about me because everyone now wants to talk to me, they only want talk to find the gossip not to actually be my friend they all still hate me'
He opens up a new message to Bobby and texts he won't be able to come in due to his leg playing up so doesn't want to be a burden and put extra pressure on the team and sends it, he puts his head back on the sofa as he figures out what he will do when he eventually has to go back to work, he's going have face them at some point he knows Bobby, Hen and Chim will be fine its Eddie he's worried about after yesterday he saw a completely other side of him how could he be so wrong about him.
He hears movement upstairs and realises that Aaron must be waking up Buck decides to get up off the sofa and make a brew and some breakfast, as he's making the breakfast and coffee his phone goes off it's a text from Bobby it says that he understands and not to worry about anything, and that they can chat when he's back in. Buck sighs in relief knowing he hasn't got to face anyone today he places the breakfast on a tray and carries it up the stairs taking his time as his leg hurts a bit when he gets to the top and walks over Aaron is still in bed but awake and looks at Buck
"You didn't have make me breakfast babe" he says as he takes hold of the tray and places it on the bed and pulls Buck in for a kiss stroking his cheek as they lock lips, buck breaks the kiss to speak
"I know but I wanted to, try and make up for the mess I've caused you and us these last few days" he says as he sits on the bed with Aaron
"Was the sofa ok? I wanted to wake you but you looked so peaceful and I know you hadn't been sleeping so good recently so I just brought a pillow and blanket down for you" Aaron explains as he starts eating the food
"It was ok and to be honest I must have needed it as I didn't wake until about 20 minutes ago so thanks" Buck replies smiling at Aaron
'I'm so lucky to have him'
"Shouldn't you be on way work?" Aaron quizzes Buck
"No I messaged Bobby about not coming in today as my leg was hurting don't worry it's not hurting but didn't want face the barrage of questions I know I will be subjected to once I get in, I just need a day or two to process it all" Buck says as he looks at Aaron
"I don't blame you babe, the people there are no good for you at all!, all they want do is make you there bitch and ignore you once you've done what they need, but now because you have some gossip they will talk to you and seem interested in what you're saying building your hopes up but then drop you once they got the information off you" Aaron explains
'He's right why would he lie he loves me, and they haven't spoke to me much at all just when it pleases them'
"When was the last time they went out as a group?" he asks Buck, already knowing he hasn't been out in ages with them
"Just the other day I saw it on Facebook" Buck replies
"You never said I would have said go out and enjoy yourself with them bit of team bonding m..." Aaron started talking but Buck cut him off
"They haven't invited me out to anything in a long time I just see it on Facebook or Instagram" he looks down on the bed
"Doesn't that show they don't really care for you at all if they don't invite you out, but I'm shocked your sister doesn't have anything to say about it all after all she is your sister and should have your back shouldn't she?" Aaron asks as he finishes off the coffee
"She is with Chim so she's in a hard place with it all" Buck explained but deep down he knew his sister wasn't impressed with it all even after their lunch out the other day he could still tell she wasn't happy about what he had done, more about the facts he had given the sleazy lawyer who then used it but she got the whole reason he sued
"You don't need them in your life, all you need is people who love you like I do Buck no one else matters and sod the rest of them you saw how quick Eddie attacked me what's stopping him from doing it to you, my answer is distance yourself from them only do what you need to at work and that's it otherwise they will rope you in and hurt you again when they drop you" Aaron says as he gets up to go get ready for work
'he's right all I've done is try win them over and I don't need to now I have Aaron and that's all I need sod the lot of them from now on its just him and me and our love'
"What you got planned with your day of freedom?" Aaron asks
"Im so drained for everything I just want go back bed so may try getting a few more hours kip" Buck replies
"Ok, sounds like a good idea, but don't forget there's stuff that needs doing round the house so don't sleep to long will you" Aaron shouts from the bathroom smile on his face as he runs the water in the sink for a shave.
"Yeah ill get the jobs sorted later and maybe go out for a walk try stretching my leg" Buck says
"Who with?" Aaron asks
"Just myself not like anyone else would want walk with me is there" He says looking down on to the bed
"Very true no one cares for you like I do I mean if they were real friends they would have come round last night or even try call you but they didn't so that says it all, told you best thing do is just talk to them as a work colleague that's all they are now they don't want to be your friend" Aaron states and the sound of water be used came from the bathroom as he started shaving
'he's right if they cared like they said they would have turned up last night or even this morning or at least tried ring, Booby only said about talking after I had text him they do hate me, but Aarons right I don't need them I have him'
"you are right" Buck responds as he gets up and picks the tray up a knife falls and lands on the bed sheet, Buck realises its left a mark on the bed and covers it with the duvet
"I'll deal with it later" he talks to himself not realising he said it out loud
"What did you say" Aaron says as he walks out the bathroom
"oh nothing just talking to myself lack of sleep finally catching me up even after lasts night sleep" Buck jokes and walks up to Aaron kisses him on the lips and walks down the stairs to clean up from making breakfast, once at the sink he feels relief he hadn't been caught making a mess and that he managed lie his way out when questioned as he was doing the dishes Aaron had come down putting his shoes on and looking in the mirror to do his tie
"Come help me do the tie im no good at them" Aaron speaks to Buck
"Ok" Buck responds drying his hands completely before moving up to Aaron and grabbing hold of the tie
"What kind of man doesn't know how to do a tie" Buck jokes as he kisses Aarons cheek
"I can just want you close to me" Aaron says as he pulls Buck in for a kiss they share I long passionate kiss for a while and Buck pulls away and chucks the tie round his neck and starts doing it up, while Aaron kisses him putting him off
"Stop it or it won't go on straight" Buck joked as he finally got Aaron still and did the tie up once done he hugged him and could smell the aftershave on Aaron
"have a good day at work" Buck says as he starts walking to the kitchen to finish the dishes, he looks at the clock its 8am plenty of day left to do things he thinks to himself, as he walks he feels a smack on his bum cheek not hard just a playful smack
"Till later babe" Aaron said with a wink and Buck smiled to him as he heard the door close he continued to do the dishes, as Aaron starts walking down the hall to the lift he sees it open and there in the lift is Carla but also Chris, he continues to walk down the hall towards them and Chris sees Aaron and moves behind Carla
"What's up hun" she asks
"Nothing just moving out the way so people can get past" Chris responds
"So courteous aren't you" she says smiling at him and then she notices Aaron walking towards them and wonders what he wants
"Hey your Carla right?" he asks her knowing already
"Yeh and your Aaron Bucks boyfriend so I believe" she says as she looks the tall man up and down
"The one and only" he says in a cocky tone "if your after buck he has gone out and won't be back till later and even then we have plans so don't want to be disturbed" Aaron explains knowing full well Buck is in the apartment, Carla looks at him and then down to Chris who doesn't look happy at what he just heard
"Oh Bobby told us he was off as his leg was hurting so I thought we would come cheer him up especially after everything that's gone on" she explains
"Why? You haven't bothered with him for weeks and now all of a sudden you find out about me and him and you want come round to get the gossip to be honest I think it's a bit rude, why don't you just leave him and us to process everything that happened yesterday and I'll get him to call you" Aaron states to Carla who just looks at him, Chris tugs on
"You ok?" she asks
"Let's just go ill see my Bucky another time" Chris replies
"He isn't your Bucky he's mine" Aaron snaps at Chris
"oi, Back off he's just a kid" Carla says as she gets in Aarons face, he just laughs in her face and she turns and holds Chris hand and walks towards the lift Aaron stands there smirking and watches them enter the lift and as the doors close he winks at her and the door closes he walks up to lift and waits a few minutes and presses to go down once he gets in and walks up the car he sees Carla and Chris driving off Chris crying and laughs.
In the car Carla calls Eddie and explains what has happened and that they were ok and that Chris was upset, she said she will text Buck later and see what he reply's with but she agreed with Eddie Arron was no good
Back in the apartment Buck is busy cleaning up the kitchen and cleaning downstairs, once he's done he sits on the sofa feeling tired and nods off for a few hours and wakes up at 3pm again lying on the sofa, he reaches over and sees he has missed calls of Aaron and a text from Carla he reads the text from Carla which states while he's with Aaron she won't be round to see him, Buck looks at it and tears form why was she been like that, he doesn't reply just selects Aarons number and calls him
"About time" Aaron says answering the phone he did not sound impressed
"Yeah after cleaning the bottom floor of the apartment I fell asleep on the sofa again" Buck explained
"That's ok at least I know the Apartment will be clean later" Aaron says
"Will be once I do upstairs, still haven't been on my walk yet" Buck replies
"Well can you head to that little deli and pick me up some things when you go on your walk ill text you a list and ill cook tonight" Aaron says hatching another plan
"erm can do but will have go now as they shut at 5 and its 3pm now and a good 30 – 45 min walk with my bad leg" Buck answers
"ok just take it easy when you walk don't want you over doing it too much" Aaron says with a concerned tone
"I won't plus gives me time to process the fact Carla text me" Buck says
"What did she say?" Aaron wondered just in case he had think of something fast
"That while im with you she won't be round see me" Buck tells Aaron to which a smile appears on his face
"well its obvious who's side she is on and been listening to isn't it I told you they didn't want know you, there trying split us up just so you can be all on your own again" Aarons states
"Your right" Buck responds "anyway I best head off to the deli text me the list" Buck says
"will do, I love you" Aaron responds and hangs up, Buck gets up and starts getting his shoes on and places his jacket on he hears a text its Aaron with his list of food he wants
'everyone hates me and now there forcing me to choose between love and friendship which they can drop me the second I end it with Aaron and he won't have me back, I can't lose his love'
Buck heads to the shops and gets there just before 4pm while he shops and picks up the ingredient's he hears a familiar voice walk in, its Athena he knew he didn't want to speak to her and listen to her go on about how everyone was and then try find the gossip out about his boyfriend
'All she will want is the gossip she doesn't care for you'
With this in his head he kept out of sight until she left the building and watched her dive away
"Hiding from the police that's never a good sign" a voice from behind the checkout came
"Yeah sorry I just know here and don't want see her" Buck replied
"well as long as you don't rob me im cool with it haha" The clerk joked and Buck walked up to pay for his items as he walked home he was enjoying been able be out in the fresh air stretching his leg till he heard sirens coming from behind he turned to see a fire truck speeding up the road it was the 118, he didn't want them to see him so he turned his back till they went past once they had passed he continued to the apartment it was just after 5pm when he got in with all the stopping he had to do to stretch his leg, he set the bags down and started putting the food away as he did he felt something hit his back right where the bruise was
"owww" he screamed in pain
He turned round to see Aaron there and he didn't look happy, when buck looked down at what had been thrown at him he saw the tv remote for the stereo system upstairs, he took a step back to balance himself against the side
"I come home early to surprise you as I knew you be out at the shops and what do I come back to a mess up here I thought you said you were cleaning it" Aaron snarled at Buck
"Im sor… I forgot as I had get to the shops before it closed" Buck said stopping himself from saying the word he knew would get him in more trouble
"Not good enough and why did you lie this morning to me?" Aaron questions him
"I didn't lie" Buck replies
"so when you said to yourself you will deal with it later and moved the duvet cover over the stain and I asked what you said and you were talking to yourself from lack of sleep you were lying I watched you the whole time" he says as he walks down towards Buck, as Aaron gets close to Buck he takes his belt off from his suit
"If there's one thing I hate its liars" Aaron said as he grabbed Buck and moved him to the sofa , he bent him over so his bum was facing Aaron and the next thing Buck knew was he felt a stinging pain go across the left cheek and then the right Aaron was lashing him with his belt
"Please stop im sorry im really sorry I didn't want disappoint you" Buck lets out between his screams
"what have I told you about using that word you pathetic excuse of a man, I thought you had learnt you less on but obviously not" Aaron states as he lashes Buck a further 5 times across his bum making each one harder than the one before once he stops he picks up Buck who has tears rolling down his face and turns him round to face him
"You understand why I did that don't you, it's because I love you and want you be a better man" Aaron says as he embraces Buck in a hug and kisses his cheek and wipes away the tears
'run you fool he will hurt you again and again, I can't I love him plus it's my fault for lying and using the word sorry if I had just done what I said I would it wouldn't have happened it's because im useless and I have no one else'
"I know and I'll be a better man I promise" Buck says as he hugs Aaron, after a bit Aaron lets go and walks over to the kitchen where he starts getting the food out and preparing tea
"You done good Buck, everything I need is here" Aaron says as he looks at Buck "why don't you go get the upstairs all sorted and cleaned and tea will be ready in a bit" Aarons says
"Ok" Buck says as he struggles to walk up the stairs his leg hurting and back aching and the stinging pain on his bun cheeks he heads to the bathroom to start cleaning and stops so he can look at his bum he peels his jeans and boxers down to see the belt marks across his cheeks and lets out a gasp
'Remember you deserved this use it as a reminder to be good from now on'
He pulls them up and continues to clean once the bathroom is done he walks in to the bedroom and to the cupboard to get a new duvet set and swaps it over he then takes the dirty duvet downstairs to put it in the washing machine as he walks down he sees Aaron in the kitchen cooking food, he walks to the washing machine and puts it on, as he turns Aaron is there
"Taste" He says Buck leans forward and tastes the food on the spoon and smiles
"Tastes good" Buck says and an Aaron smile back and kisses him on the cheek and walks back to the pot and starts stirring getting the food ready
"Want set the table please Buck" Aaron asks
Buck walks over and gets the plates and sets them as well as the cutlery and drinking glasses, once set Aaron plates up and puts it down they both start eating
"How was work?" Buck asks
"It was good babe better now im home with you as I missed you so much" Aaron responded
'He missed you see he cares for you so much, you can't keep letting him down you will lose him to'
"missed you to" Buck said and they carried on eating have idle chat about random things once they finished Buck got up and started clearing you, Aaron came up behind him as he did the dishes and started hugging and kissing Bucks neck
"Stop it im trying to clean up, maybe later "Buck Says as he turns round to look at Aaron
"ok then" Aaron said with sad look on his face and he walked over to the sofa to put tv and started to watch what ever came on whilst Buck continued to clean up the dishes after the dishes he cleaned the table and moved the clean duvet out the washing machine in to the dryer, once all that was done he looked dover and saw Aaron still watching the tv so got a glass of water to take some pain killers as he was in a lot of pain but didn't want show it
'Must be strong, must not be week, man up'
He looked at the clock in the kitchen it was now 8:15pm where had the time gone he thought to himself and slowly walked over to the sofa to sit with Aaron and watch tv, as he sat down he could feel the pain on his bum but didn't show anything as he didn't want Aaron to start again saying he was weak he wanted to prove he had maned up,
"What do you want watch" Aaron asks looking at Buck
"Not fussed, stick a film on and we can chill out till bed time" Buck replies as Aaron starts flicking through the channels he runs he hand through Bucks hair Buck looks at him
"Im lucky to have you, I love you" Buck says
"I love you to im so happy im with you" Aaron replies and finds a channel with a film on they sit and watch it and Buck starts to nod on the sofa
"come on bed time" Aaron says and turns the tv off he gets up and holds his hand up for Buck to hold as he pulls him up in to his grasp of a hug and then a kiss as they kiss Aaron runs his down bucks body and tugs at his shirt
"Not tonight" Buck says as he breaks the kiss and looks at Aaron
"Do you not find me attractive anymore is that it" Aaron spits out
"no nothing like that far from it think your hot just not feeling it tonight with the pain killers in me" Buck explains
"But I bet if it was Eddie you wouldn't say stop" Aaron says
"What no I don't like Eddie like that, where did you even get that from "Buck replies shocked at the remark
'Can't let him know I do want Eddie like that he won't be happy if say it'
"I saw the way you looked when he hugged you the other day, I guess im just second best even to someone who hates you, where as I love you" Aaron starts
"I know you love me and you are second best to no one, im just not in the mood like I said" Buck replies and Aaron pulls off him and storms upstairs
"Im Sorry" Buck shouts before he realises he said that word and starts to panic on what will happen
'How could I be so stupid I promised to be good and man up and I break the promise he's going leave me as im useless'
Buck starts to walk up the stairs and looks for Aaron who isn't anywhere in the bedroom, and walks to the bathroom thinking he's in there as he gets close he feels something hit his head and he starts going dizzy
"what did I say to you about saying that word you never learn" Aaron said as he pulls on Bucks shirt so he falls on to the bed, he climbs on top of Buck and pins his arms down to the mattress as he kisses Bucks neck
"Please Aaron stop I'll be good I promise" Buck pleads
"You will do once im through teaching you a lesson" Aaron smirks as he puts Bucks hands under his knees while he gets his tie once he has the tie in hand he takes Buck left hand and wraps the tie around it and then round the bar above the head and the takes the right hand and does the same and ties it tight so Buck can't move his hand he then starts kissing Bucks neck again his hand rubbing up and down Bucks body he starts ripping the shirt off and throws the tattered shirt to the side of them as he kisses Bucks body
"Please Aaron stop I don't want to please NO" Buck pleads nut is cut off when Aaron gags him with his shirt
"Be a good boy and it can be over soon, I love you buck I just want to show you how much I love you" Aaron whispers in to his ear
Aaron climbs of top of him and then off the bed and goes in to the bathroom Buck tries to move his hands but no joy he's tied to the bed, Aaron walks in to the bedroom smiling at buck he positions something on the side but Buck can't see what it is, Aaron smiles at him and walks up to him as he undoes Bucks jeans and pull both his jeans and boxers down at once
"Well aren't you a sexy boy" Aaron says looking at Buck who can't say anything back as he is gagged up but can see the tears in his eyes, with that Aaron climbs on top and starts kissing Bucks neck again and rubbing his down his body,
"im going enjoy this and so will you Bucky" Aaron says and with that he moves to the lower end of the bed and starts to penetrate him but when Buck squirms to try and stop him Aaron grabs hold of the legs and squeezes them till Buck stops but as soon as he stops squeezing Buck tries again this time Aaron smacks him on the burn on his leg and this stops Buck in his track as tears pour down from his eyes from the sheer pain, Aaron carries on without a care in the world how much he's hurting Buck, smacking his already marked bum cheeks and gripping on his legs leaving hand marks there, once Aaron has finished he comes up and kisses Buck on the forehead as he unties the tie from round his hands and gets up to walk to the bathroom
"never knew you were in to that kind of kinky thing Buck diffidently a first for me but I enjoyed it" He says as he picks up the object off the side which was Aarons mobile and he presses stop on the recording smiling as he walks in to the bathroom and gets in the shower to clean up, back in the room Buck doesn't dare move he just rolls over pulls the cover over himself and starts to cry thinking about what happened
'look what you caused just because you couldn't learn to keep your promise to him but I said no I didn't want to so why didn't he stop, he loves you and you wouldn't show it to him how else is he meant know you love him if you don't show it to him'
As Aaron comes back in and gets in to bed Buck closes his eyes and pretends to be asleep after a while he can hear Aaron soft snores and climbs out the bed and goes in to the bathroom he's aching all over he quietly cleans himself up, after which he looks in the mirror and thinks to himself
'tomorrow I start new I won't let him down ill show him how much I care for him and how much I love him, I can't lose him to because of how selfish I am'
Once he has cleaned up and got some pjs on he climbs back in bed and falls asleep, not knowing how he would explain the bruises if someone sees them at work he would have find a way of getting changed without anyone seeing them
