Being a lifeguard is challening and some times even dangerous. They put there life on the life for the sake of others, just because they want to help others even if that means they could go under as well.
And Dean Gladstone better known as Deano is about to realize just what that truly means. He was new, he had started about 4 or 5 months ago. He wasn't particulary close to anyone, yet something about H made him feel safe and comfortable.
H has always been keeping an extra eye on him ever since he started working with him, everytime he had been sick, H had stopped by to check in him, even stayed the night sometimes.
They had heared screams coming from somewhere close to the shark net, and Deano had rushed out with Reidy close by. They managed to get them on to the boards and closer to the shore. The swimmers got off and swam in.
Reidy returned safely not Deano, on his way in Deano made the typical rookie mistake. Not watching the waves from behind him when returning to land..
As the wave came crushing over him Deano lost control, he fell off his board and all he felt was his head hitting the sand and the water filling his mouth before everything went black.
The first thing he felt when he woke up was someone's hand on top of his, their thumb stroking the back of his hand. 
"Breathe Kiddo, You're alright, you're alright." H, that's H. That much he could tell
"H?" His voice was rough, almost as if he had a sore throat again.
"Breathe, you're at the hospital mate. You had quite the nasty inccident today."
"What?"
"You went out to rescue anyone and only your board came back, we hit the shark alarm and tried finding you. You were laying at the edge of the rocks..""Gave us a real good scare"
"I-I..."
"Shh, just don't be an idiot again, like ever. Even though that will be an impossible challenge for you."
"DAAD! OMG SHUT UP!"
Later on when he got realased, H refused to let him go home alone. As usuall H joined him home and stayed for a while. They went trough the different diagnoses, like bruised ribs, a samll concussion and to keep an eye out on his cough due to the water in his lunges.
As the night grew closer Deano had one singular request for H. 
"Can you sleep with me? I don't really want to be alone..."
H said yes quite quick, seeing that true fear of lonelyness in Deano's eyes.
As they got into bed, H pulled Deano closer and pushed him into laying with his head over H's heart so the heartbeat could calm him further into sleep. 
"Ya know, i'll always be here. Wether you are sick or hurt or just need someone. I'm not going anywhere, not even when I retire. You wont get rid of me sweetheart." H whispered into the room not being able to se if Deano was asleep or not. 
He got his answer when Deano lifted his head to look at him and whispered back " Thanks dad, love you"
And as Deano began to fell alseep he could hear a whisper from above him. 
"Love you too Kiddo"
2015:
And of course Jethro managed to dislocate his shoulder was the first thing Deano thought when he heard about what happened. The father instict in him called him to run down the beach, but his mind told him to stay out and rather join him in the ambulance.
And once the hours had passed and Jethro wasn't as bloody loopy and in pain he could actually check in on him.
And as he was about to leave he got a major deja vu.
Jethro asked if he could stay and as he turned to look at him he was thrown back in time to his own accident and how H helped him when he was younger and as scared and frighten of lonelyness as Jethro.
So of curse he stayed and for his own small fun play, he said the same words as his mentor before him had said.
"Ya know, i'll always be here. Wether you are sick or hurt or just need someone. I'm not going anywhere, not even when I retire. You wont get rid of me sweetheart."
"Thanks Dad, love you"
Anytime, and I love you too darling"
