Summary
The first time a building tried to take Eddie from him, Buck carried him out.
The second time, Buck becomes the only thing standing between Eddie and several hundred pounds of concrete.
Trapped beneath the wreckage, with Buck bleeding, shaking, and slowly losing the strength to keep the ceiling from crushing him, neither of them has anywhere left to hide from the truth.
“Buck, please!”
“Stop asking me to choose to live without you!”
or
Buck holds up a slab of concrete to keep Eddie alive, and several years of unresolved feelings finally collapse with the ceiling.
