This story takes place in my Elevator series. The timeline takes place after the last of those stories. It would be beneficial if you read those first.

Summary: Buck has a personal crisis, can't talk to Vin until he thinks he is on the verge of losing his lover. Then actions speak louder than words.

Pairing: Buck/Vin, mention of Chris/Ezra


Buck and Chris had been sitting quietly at the table in the bar and grill for over ten minutes. They were waiting on their lovers to arrive. Ezra had to run home and Vin had volunteered to go with him. After downing a beer each they were working on their second one.

"Okay, Buck what's going on with you and Vin? You've been very quiet lately and Vin has been walking around with a wounded confused look in his eyes. I told you two years ago when you hooked up with Vin that you better not hurt him. So what's going on?" Chris asked piercing his old friend with his green gaze.

"Shit Chris, it is so fucking embarrassing. About a month ago Vin and I went out for a nice dinner over at Luigi's. I bought us a bottle of wine to celebrate Vin winning that sharp shooting contest. You know Vin doesn't drink much but he had three glasses that night and it went straight to his head. Hell, that was okay after all I was driving. We got home and he was all over me..." here Buck's voice died off.

Chris smiled a little and said, "Well sounds good so far. Since when do you get upset because your lover is all over you?"

"Since I couldn't get it the fuck up. Damn I couldn't believe it that has never happened to me. Thank God Vin had that wine to drink, it made him just fuzzy enough that he bought into everything I said and did. I tumbled him into bed and well...without going into a lot of detail I satisfied him, when he went to reciprocate I told him that he was so hot that I had cum on my own. Since then I haven't made love to him."

Chris's mouth dropped open at the declaration.

"You haven't made love to him in a month. No wonder he looks like somebody kicked him. Shit Buck he probably figures you've grown tired of him, you know how he needs to be connected to the people he loves."

"Did you fucking hear me? I couldn't get it up...couldn't get a hard on. I don't want him to leave me for a younger man, someone who can satisfy him better than me," Buck morosely said.

"So you want him to leave you because you won't talk to him or because he thinks you don't love him anymore."

"I don't fucking want him to leave me at all," Buck protested.

"Well that is exactly what is going to happen if you don't talk to him," Chris said totally exasperated with his old friend.

Meanwhile as Buck and Chris was talking, Ezra and Vin were on their way to the bar having their own talk.

"Anyway that's it Ez. I knew Buck was lying when he said he came but he wouldn't let me touch him. I just let it go thinking he was embarrassed, but hell things like that happen at times. Now he won't even attempt to make love to me, thinking up all sorts of reasons not to. Oh he holds me at night but that's it," Vin said glad to have a friend who would listen to him and maybe offer him some advice.

Then in a little boy voice Vin said, "Maybe he isn't attracted to me anymore, and maybe he found someone else."

Ezra almost laughed out loud but he quickly changed it to a cough. He had never heard of such a ludicrous statement but he knew how upset Vin was.

Buck worshiped his young lover. Vin was his world and had been ever since Buck had made the first move in the stuck elevator all those years ago.

Besides which if Ezra wasn't so in love with Chris he might be tempted to go after Vin. Vin thinking he was suddenly unattractive was hilarious. Ezra thought Chris was gorgeous, the perfect ice cold looking blond, his ideal and Chris was just the opposite of ice cold in the bedroom.

But Vin Tanner was breathtaking and part of his appeal was the fact that he was totally unaware of his beauty and desirability to men and women.

Ezra carefully said, "I think Buck loves you more today than he did when you first met. You have to remember that to a man like Buck not being able to make love to his mate would be devastating. Sure part of it is an ego thing but he might be worried that you will leave him for someone younger."

"I would never do that. I love him," Vin indignantly stated.

"I know that, you know that and deep down so does Buck. It is something that you both just need to sit down and talk about," Ezra suggested.

"He won't talk, just changes the subject or thinks of somewhere he needs to be."

"Then Buck needs to be shaken up, he needs to see that if he doesn't talk then he might very well lose you...no listen Vin. Chris and Buck are in a lot of ways alike. One month Chris suddenly became moody and didn't want to talk to me; I didn't know that it was Adams birthday. You and Buck had gone on vacation, no one told me. One night we were eating out and a long time friend showed up, Joe flirted with me, patted my shoulder, touched my hand and Chris saw red...or should I say green. I didn't even get dessert, he yanked me out of the place headed straight to the nearest motel and he made love to me all night. The next morning he finally told me why he had been so moody. Now, we talk when something is bothering one of us. Chris has more demons than Buck so it doesn't surprise me that you guys barely argue," Ezra explained.

"So Joe just happened to show up?" Vin teased a little glint of amusement in his blue eyes.

Ezra smiled at his friend.

"Well, I might have called him and told him that I needed someone safe to flirt with me. Needless to say, Chris doesn't know that I set the whole scene up, what our lovers don't know won't hurt them," Ezra laughed.

"I don't know Ez, I'll have to think about it," Vin commented.

They arrived at the bar and headed on inside, food was ordered and the four men dug in.

After they had eaten Vin said he was going to the bathroom and would stop and get another round of beers.

It was noticed that Buck and Vin had not talked much to each other.

While Vin was at the bar a big burly guy wearing black leather, tattoos on both arms and chains around his waist approached the slender sharpshooter.

Ezra watched closely and gave a barely imperceptible nod to the man. Earlier he had stopped the man and told him he would pay him two hundred dollars if he would chat up and flirt with his friend, Ezra was very honest. The undercover agent explained that his friend Vin was having problems with his lover and Ezra wanted to get the man jealous. Cory, the biker went along with it after he had checked it out with his lover Andy. They decided they could use the money and after all it might help two lovers get back together.

Thankfully Ezra picked the right man, but he was after all a very good judge of character and since it was a bar that catered to same sex relationships it was a safe bet that Cory wouldn't be insulted by Ezra's plan.

Vin smiled at the biker who struck up a conversation with him. He had seen the guy around before and knew he was a regular to the bar. Vin had become much more open with people since he had mated up with Buck, he genuinely liked talking to them.

Cory smiled at Vin and stood close to him, damn this would be the easiest two hundred dollars he ever made. It certainly wasn't a hardship to flirt with this gorgeous man.

Vin was a little taken aback when Cory reached out brushed his finger against the corner of his mouth, but the biker explained that he had a speck of something on his mouth.

Unbeknownst to Vin Buck was sitting facing them and was watching ever move that his lover and the biker made. Buck noticed Vin's slight start of surprise when the biker touched him but his lover never moved away.

Buck felt a burning begin in the pit of his stomach, no one was allowed to get that close to his lover, Vin was for him and him alone. Buck's eyes dropped down to the chains around the biker's waist, how long had it been since he had tied his lover down, played with him before allowing them both the release they were craving.

To fucking long if Vin's reaction was anything to go by.

Cory let his finger stroke down Vin's throat feeling the pulse suddenly jump at the contact. Vin reached up and grasped Cory's hand to remove it. Cory reached down with his free hand and grasped the end of his chain and let it wrap around Vin's wrist.

Vin gasped at the contact, it reminded him how long it had been since Buck had played with him, he missed the bondage and the toys.

Vin dropped Cory's hand and stepped back letting the chain fall between them.

"I...I ah...have to leave. My...friends are waiting for me," Vin stammered blushing a bright red.

Cory reached out and grasped Vin's shoulders stopping the escape.

"I could be your friend, pretty, I could be a real close friend."

Cory saw Buck coming out of the corner of his eye but didn't react.

Buck slammed his beer down on the table, surged to his feet the chair falling to the floor behind him and stalked to the bar.

Everyone scattered out of his way.

Chris stood up prepared to go after his friend but Ezra put his hand on his lover's arm and slightly shook his head.

Chris sat back down wondering what the hell his incorrigible lover had done.

"Let me show you just how good I can make you feel pretty," Cory said as he slowly pulled Vin closer.

Vin pulled back then suddenly he was free.

Buck was there and he was livid. In one swift movement he had Vin around the waist with his left arm and his right fist was flying towards Cory's face. The biker ducked and stepped back.

Cory raised his hands up mock surrendering as he said, "Hey, I didn't know pretty was taken, you ought to keep a closer eye on him. Someone like him who looks like sex on legs shouldn't be allowed out alone or at least off a leash."

Vin sputtered at the comment then his world turned upside down as Buck tossed him over his shoulder.

When Vin went to protest Buck calmly slapped him hard on the ass, which effectively shut him up.

Buck glared at Cory, "You stay away from my lover. I ever see you near him again and it will the last thing you do."

Buck turned and yelled, "Chris, see you later...you to Ezra. Have a good weekend. I plan to."

Buck then turned and carried his subdued lover out of the bar.

Chris started to get up when Ezra stopped him again.

"I just want to check on Vin. Buck looked real angry," Chris explained.

Ezra soothed, "Buck wouldn't harm a hair on Vin's head...well unless he wanted him to."

"You set this whole thing up didn't you just like you did with your good buddy Joe," Chris accused smiling to take the bite out of his words.

Ezra gaped, how the hell did his lover figure out his little scene with Joe.

"I know you to well Ez. We love each other too much for you to even think about going with another man. Of course I didn't figure it out for a couple of days, then I looked up Joe and told him that you belonged to me and I wouldn't tolerate anymore flirting even if it was a trick."

"Joe...he never called me and told me..." Ezra stuttered for once at a loss for words.

"I told him not to and my glare made sure he understood the order. You know now that I think about it you were a very naughty boy for teasing me like that. Of course I know why you did it, but still, I think some punishment is due," Chris stated standing up tossing some bills on the table and then taking Ezra by the arm and heading him for the door.

Ezra nodded to Cory and Andy as he left silently thanking them for the help.

Chris let his hand rest on the nape of his lover's neck and gave it a slight squeeze letting his lover know who was the alpha and that nothing ever got by him.

Ezra caught his breath at the pressure on his neck, Chris was letting him know who was boss and he was sure everyone in the bar knew who the alpha was in this relationship. Ezra felt his cock start to tingle in anticipation of the fun ahead, if he was lucky Chris would use the paddle, how he loved that paddle.

While Chris and Ezra were leaving the bar, Buck and Vin were almost home.

Buck had dumped Vin in the passenger seat of the truck and slammed the door shut. Vin remained quiet; he was shocked that Buck had behaved like that in public. Buck was generally a very even-tempered man and it wasn't like this was the first time a man had flirted with him. Of course it didn't usually get this far but...Vin then groaned...Ezra of course the undercover agent set this all up.

Vin was going to kill his friend but first he needed to talk to Buck.

Vin turned to talk to his lover as Buck shut his door. Buck moved faster than his lover as he shoved the seat back and yanked Vin across the seat to land in his lap.

Vin gasped then moaned as Buck claimed his mouth in a hard rough kiss.

Buck didn't give a shit who was around as he buried one hand in his lover's hair holding Vin still as he devoured the sweet mouth.

Buck's other hand was busy as he practically ripped Vin's shirt down the front, slid his arm around the slender waist and hauled Vin closer making sure his lover felt his erection pressing into him.

Buck wanted to leave no doubt that he was ready and willing to take his lover right here in the truck in a public parking lot if that is what it took to make sure everyone Vin included knew who the young man belonged to.

Vin whimpered he was already hard as a rock and he rubbed his jean-clad groin against Buck's trying to get some friction going.

Buck yanked his head back by the hair. Vin shivered as he found his back resting against the steering wheel and a glowering looming lover staring down at him.

Buck swallowed deeply sternly telling himself to get some control, he was not about to take Vin in a public parking lot. It had been a month since they had made love and Vin would need some preparation but he didn't want anyone to see his lover naked.

Buck gazed down at his lover thinking he had never seen a more erotic sexy sight. Vin was reclining against the steering wheel, his lover's tousled hair still held in his fist, Vin's lips were red, wet and swollen, the pulse was racing in his neck and little pants were escaping that sweet tasting mouth.

"I think you forgot who you belonged to sweetheart. Granted I've been an ass lately but never forget I love you and I won't tolerate anyone else's hands on you," Buck growled.

Vin shivered damn but Bucklin sounded so possessive, so dominating.

"I didn't come on to him, he came onto me," Vin weakly protested.

Buck tightened his fist causing Vin to gasp as his hair was pulled even more.

"I know you didn't instigate it, if you had you'd be over my lap by now and your ass would be raw. Then of course I might just skip the whipping and just mount you right out there in the parking lot for everyone see."

Buck bit back the grin as he watched the long eyelashes flutter shut as Vin moaned at the threat, his sweet baby did like rough dirty talk and he did like to play.

Buck was perfectly aware that Vin didn't encourage the man, he wasn't mad at Vin, he was mad at the arrogance of the man even approaching Vin. And he was mad at himself for letting Vin go without their playtime and sex for a month.

Next time they would talk but now...now it was time to play, time to reclaim what was his and make sure Vin knew he was loved.

Buck ripped Vin's shirt the rest of the way off, it was a warm humid night so he didn't worry Vin would get to cold.

Buck made Vin lie down with his head in Buck's lap. Using a part of the ripped shirt he gagged and blindfolded his lover. Buck informed Vin that his hands were to remain at his side or he would tie them together. Vin put one foot on the floorboard of the truck the other one was bent with the foot flat on the seat. Buck pushed his lover legs further apart, unbuttoned the button down jeans so he could touch his lover's cock through the white briefs.

Buck started up the truck and drove towards home. Of course he drove with one hand while the other hand roamed over his lover's body touching and pinching everywhere he could reach.

No one zone out, yes this is dangerous driving, the story is for pure enjoyment. Besides don't you think Buck could do two things at once.

Buck grinned as he heard Vin whimper, he was going to drive his lover wild. Quickly glancing down he saw that the white briefs were very damp. Buck flexed his hand and then slid his long fingers into the briefs pulling the hard wet cock out of the damp briefs.

Vin sucked in his breath as the air hit his aching shaft, then his lover grasped his cock and stroked it a couple of times.

Then there was nothing. Vin waited but his cock wasn't touched again.

Vin's thoughts about his lover were not pleasant. In fact his lover was being called every name in the book starting with cock tease and ending in prick.

Buck was trying very hard not to laugh, he could tell by Vin's tense body and the way that cute nose was pinched that the younger man wasn't happy with him.

As they pulled into there driveway Buck rolled the flared head in his fingers flicking the piss slit with his thumbnail.

Vin shuddered at the sensation, he was close, and after all it had been a long time since he had gotten off.

Then Vin found himself being hauled out of the truck and slung over Buck's back like he weighed no more than a bag of groceries.

Of course to Buck he didn't weigh much more than that. Buck stalked to the bedroom where he tossed Vin on the bed. Before the lithe young man could move Buck had cuffed his hands behind his back and then tied the cuffs to the side of the bed effectively pinning his lover face down to the bed.

Buck had remembered to shove a pillow under his lover so Vin's hips were raised slightly.

Buck removed the makeshift blindfold and gag.

Without saying a word Buck yanked the rest of Vin's clothes off and then stripped himself.

Vin groaned as his hard leaking cock was trapped between his body and the pillow. He was strapped down so tight he could get any friction on his aching shaft, which of course was exactly what Buck was counting on.

While Vin might not be able to give himself release Buck was quite capable of playing with his lover. Buck spread Vin's long legs and knelt between them. Resting his hands on Vin's upturned ass he spread the cheeks and ran his tongue between them.

Squeezing the firm globes he left a wet trail down to the quivering puckered hole.

Buck nipped sharply at one firm cheek then brought his hand down sharply on the other one. A vivid red handprint stood out on the tanned skin.

Vin yelped at the sudden unexpected pain, he hissed under his breath.

Buck slapped the other cheek, Vin cursed out loud jerking in his bonds.

Buck smiled, Vin's cuss words were always so colorful.

"I'm going to give your sweet ass the fucking it has been begging for all night. Babe you aren't going to be walking straight tomorrow. Every time you sit down you are going to be reminded who you belong to. You are mine Vin and no one is ever going to touch you but me," Buck growled his hands roaming over the slim body marking his territory with gentle strokes or sharp pinches.

Buck had complete and total control over his lover as he lay down on top of Vin using his weight to pin him even more to the bed. It was a show of dominance by the big man.

Vin still struggled against him but it was all for show. Vin wasn't about to just give in to his lover; he was going to make Buck work for it. The eventual surrender would be that much sweeter.

Buck however didn't want to wait for his lover to surrender, he wanted inside that sweet ass and he wanted in it real quick.

Buck grabbed a handful of Vin's hair and jerked the tousled head around. Vin opened his mouth but nothing came out as Buck clamped his mouth down hard on the soft lips of his lover.

Vin whimpered as Buck plundered his mouth. Buck literally stole his breath away.

Buck then let the sweet mouth go. As Vin gasped for breath Buck nuzzled into his neck.

Vin cried out as Buck began sucking on his neck then sharp teeth bit down.

Buck licked the bite mark knowing that there would be a vivid bruise before to long.

"I haven't marked you in a while. I need to make sure that everyone knows you belong to me."

Vin sighed, he relaxed, and this was what he needed. Buck to claim him, take control of him and force him to submit.

Buck felt his lover surrender, felt Vin submit to him. The alpha male in him screamed in victory. He had let his lover go to long without making sure that Vin knew he was loved and owned.

It was time to set all that right.

Buck slicked up a couple of fingers and slid them into the tight hole. Damn Vin was so incredibly tight. The velvet soft inner walls clamped down on his fingers.

"Damn Vin. You are so fucking tight. I can't wait to feel your tight ass suck my cock in and milk it dry. You know you want it, you're such a slut for my big thick cock," Buck said as he slid in three fingers.

Vin moaned not only were his lover's talented fingers stimulating his prostrate but also he loved to be talked dirty to.

Buck worked until he had four fingers inside the hot sweet tender asshole, then he slicked up his aching red cock.

Wrenching Vin's legs even further apart he drilled into his lover ramming his hard cock in side the tight passage.

Vin's asshole held him tight as he rammed his thick cock in and out of the heat of his lover's body.

Buck undid the cuffs binding Vin to the bed but he left his lover's wrists cuffed behind his back.

Buck put his arms around Vin's chest and pulled him up sitting back on his heels. Vin cried out his body shaking as he sunk deeper onto Buck's cock.

Buck braced his lover with an arm around the slim waist as he drove his cock up and into the hot channel.

Vin's ass felt like liquid fire. Buck angled his cock for maximum penetration as he pumped hard trying to get deeper and deeper into his lover's hot body.

Sensations sizzled between the men. Buck circled Vin's cock with his hand allowing his lover to thrust into the circle of his hand.

Vin let his head drop back onto Buck's shoulder as he was being fucked hard.

Vin writhed, he whimpered but he held out until Buck whispered, "Cum for me baby."

Vin screamed as cum spilled out of him covering Buck's hand and the bed sheets.

Then Vin was like a rag doll as Buck shoved him face down on the bed and thrust into the pliant body. Buck pumped hard gripping slim hips tightly, there was no doubt there would be bruises on his lover tomorrow.

Finally Buck yelled spilling his seed deep inside his lover's bowels. Buck continued to thrust until he had nothing left.

Vin groaned as Buck withdrew from his ass. Buck didn't want to take the time to clean up the bed so he picked Vin up and strode into the bathroom.

After the intense encounters Vin was always very biddable.

Buck got them both showered and then into the spare bedroom. Tomorrow was soon enough to strip and change the master bed.

Buck absolutely hated sleeping in wet spots and he wasn't about to make Vin do it.

Buck lay on his back and pulled Vin into his arms letting the younger man curl up against him. He had not missed the wince when Vin had climbed into bed.

"You okay, baby?" he asked rubbing his hand soothingly on the smooth back.

"I'm fine. I missed this...this special time. I missed you," Vin softly said.

Buck pulled Vin even closer dropped a kiss on top of the soft hair.

"I am sorry about that baby. I was so thrown by what happened or should I say didn't happen that...well I just handled it all wrong. Can you forgive me?"

Vin turned his head and gazed at Buck who looked down at him.

"Well on one condition."

Buck smiled he saw the glint in his lover's blue eyes.

"What condition is that?"

"I want to play all weekend, make up for all the times I missed in the last month."

Buck swooped down and kissed his lover hard on the mouth.

"You got a deal, but don't blame me if you can't move on Monday."

"I won't, besides I think Ezra will be having difficulty moving after this weekend. I think Chris figured out that Ez set the whole thing up."

Buck laughed, "You're probably right. I only had eyes for you but Chris was sure to be watching Ezra closely."

"Can we go horseback riding tomorrow?" Vin asked yawning.

"Sure after I do some more Vin riding first," Buck replied.

"It's a deal," Vin replied.

The two men kissed again and drifted off to sleep. Communication and love once again restored in the Wilmington/Tanner household.

Nearby in the Larabee/Standish household Chris was holding his lover in his arms.

Ezra's butt was beet red, he had gotten his wish Chris had used the paddle on him. Then his blond lover had bent him over the side of the bed and rode him hard and long.

It would be a while well at least a couple of days before Ezra tried to put one over on Chris again.

Buck and Chris both knew that their younger more impulsive lovers would find someway to try their patience again. Of course they had plenty of paddles and whips to use to bring them in line again.

This fact gave much enjoyment to Vin Tanner and Ezra Standish.

The End
