Summary
“Buck this is an order. You have to move, look for a way out...” Bobby grumbles, peremptory, like a boss now. Even though his eyes show so much concern. “Find the way out, Buck, we are looking for you from outside, okay?”.
“There could be, yes. But ... Cap?” he says, tentative over the radio. “It’s all dark and... and... and I think I’m hurt...” he says and hears him just chuckle. “I’m bleeding...” he continues to say and coughs. “But… but it doesn’t hurt”.
Shit. Shit. Shit. This isn’t a good sign. Eddie has seen many injuries, even before being a firefighter. And this is not a good sign, if one doesn’t feel pain, it isn’t a good sign.Or, Buck gets trapped in a burning building but... there really is always a way out? No one gets left behind, right?

Summary
[Best read after A whisper of smoke, but can be read as a standalone work]
It’s in the morning that Buck pops the question, and Eddie’s brain short-circuits for a moment. “What if I accompany you to Frank’s next time?”.
And it’s simple, direct yet not that direct, but it sounds so nonchalant that leaves Eddie speechless. So he stares at Buck for a minute before resetting his systems and to fully functioning again. It takes a bit because his mouth just went all dry, as if his salivary glands had decided to be out of business for good, and words got stuck in the back of his throat.
“I mean, I won’t enter with you, but I’ll drive you there and when we get back, I can snuggle with you” he jests, tilting his head and smirking fondly.
... Or they finally talk (!!!)
