This doesn't follow on from previous chapter but it's too short to post by itself and this seemed a good place to post it :) Another look at the tagging of Greg by Wilson. Once again the Collar!Redux universe belongs to oflymonddreams and they kindly allow me to play in it, this should be considered as an AU to their universe.

Wilson knows that tagging Greg is a good thing for Greg. Greg can walk the halls now, and travel in the elevators, without fear. The security guards can watch him, but they can never order him to his knees. Wilson can look after him, buy him expensive presents. Wilson chooses Greg's clothes now, makes sure he looks nice for him every day.

Wilson has seen to it that Greg's clinic hours have been cut, he has most nights off now. He only has to do extra if he's being disciplined. Wilson has smoothed out access to his pain meds.. He goes and collects them from the pharmacy and feeds them to Greg when he thinks Greg needs them. Wilson sits in on some of the diagnostic differentials, checking that Greg is doing okay. He offers suggestions and only interferes if he thinks Greg is wrong.

When Greg is whipped Wilson makes sure that he is there. He watches to make sure that Greg is not harmed more than needed. He holds him afterwards and soothes him. Washes his back and dresses it. Every time he tells Greg that he must try harder to be good, they don't want to have to whip him. Wilson doesn't want him hurt.

Wilson takes him out most nights, to his hotel room. Greg travels on the floor of a cab, collared and leashed but at least he gets away from the hospital. They lie in bed together and Wilson hugs him and pets him, strokes his scar and watches him limp naked around the room. Greg gets his pain meds at the end of the night, when Wilson is finished with him.

Wilson loves to play with Greg's collar and the tag. He strokes the skin around it, tugs gently on the tag. Wilson makes sure that the collar and the tag are always clean and visible when Greg isn't with his patients or in the clinic. He loves the way Greg looks in the collar, and the way the tag lies against his skin. He wishes that Greg didn't have to cover them up then but sees the necessity. When Greg finishes in the clinic Wilson is often there, to strip the roll top off his body as soon as he can. He loves to walk through the hospital corridors with Greg, he doesn't often use the leash, only when Greg has angered him. As he walks he rests a hand on Greg's arm so that everyone can see who he belongs to.

Wilson knows he has improved Greg's life a lot. Every time he sees the tag on Greg's collar he feels good about himself and what he has done.

Greg is his now.

It doesn't really matter how Greg feels.
