    Summary

    The thing was, the 118 was full of gossips.

    Eddie had been at the station less than a week before Hen and Chim wrangled details about his “hot young thing” from him (“Buck is only 4 years younger than me, he is not a ‘hot young thing’!” Eddie complained.)

    And Bobby was open about his worries for his son’s lack of direction and the secrets he appears to be keeping (“I just wish I could help Evan find the thing that gives him purpose,” Bobby lamented.)

    It just made it all the more ridiculous (and horrifying) when Eddie realizes he’s been dating his Captain’s son this whole time (“Defiling his baby,” Chimney cackled, because he clearly wanted Eddie murdered.)
    --
    Or, the AU where miscommunication abounds as Eddie seeks advice about his new relationship, Bobby despairs over his adopted son's career prospects and his refusal to talk about it, and Evan Buckley-Nash juggles training at the fire academy, building a family with his new boyfriend, and trying to work out how to tell his overprotective dad that he's already chosen the life he wants, actually.

    It takes a goddamn tsunami, of all things, to get the story straight.

    “It’ll go fine.” Howie advised. “I don’t like the idea of you being there alone,” he joked with a small little smile. “But it’ll be okay.”

    “I’m not alone.” Maddie teased with a matching smile of her own.

    “You’re right.” Howie conceded. “You have our scary baby girl to hold everyone off.”

    Maddie snorted. “I meant -.”

    “I know what you meant.” Howie sobered. “I like the idea of him being there even less.”

    Maddie’s stomach jolted. “Do you think I made a mistake?” She asked cautiously. “Should I have told him not to come?”

    Howie waved a hand to the side. “Nah,” he shrugged. “We both know Buck’s going to Buck.”

    “Why the fuck are you even in this loop? This day isn’t about you.”

    “Well, I die,” Eddie comments idly, not sounding as offended as he maybe should be. “Haven’t you heard? I’m always dying.”

    “That’s not funny.”

    Eddie shrugs, not really agreeing or disagreeing. It’s a few seconds before he says, eyes still closed, “Maybe I’m here so you’re not alone.”

    Summary

    After an emergency that hits way too close to home, Buck proposes a spontaneous trip to El Paso to look at houses—and maybe visit Christopher while they’re there. Eddie, initially skeptical, thinks that might be the worst idea he’s ever heard. Three days, just a quick trip. What could possibly go wrong?
