    Summary

    Eddie feels a little bit like he’s stuck in limbo. He has Buck — except for the couple of hours a week Buck spends with the person who really has him. He has Chris — but only in the once-a-week phone calls and secondhand text messages.

    He doesn’t believe in fate. But if he did, Eddie would wonder if it was too much to ask of the universe that he get to have his family be fully his — all the time, and all the way.

    Things fall apart when Chris leaves for Texas. They fall apart some more before they can be put back together.

    Summary

    “What have we got Cap?” Hen asked, as they piled into the truck the alarm blaring behind them.

    “Two teenagers caught in a building collapse.” Bobby recited dutifully into the mics as the truck trundled out of the bay, it’s own lights and sirens starting up as they took off towards the scene “Apparently they were on the roof of that condemned apartment building on Emmitt Junction and it gave out on them. One has a possible rib fracture, and the other has no injuries, both are awake and alert.”

    “Do these two teenagers have names?”

    “Buck and Eddie.”

    “What kind of a name is Buck?” Chimney asked, nose wrinkled.

    “What kind of a name is Chimney?” Hen shot back, turning to look at Bobby “what were they even doing on the roof of that building? it’s been red tagged for years after a fire took it out.”

    Bobby made a face, like he wasn’t sure if he could really believe the words out of his mouth as he said, “According to dispatch, homework.”

    ***

    Or, 5 times the 118 were called to a scene with Buck and Eddie, and 1 time they ran into each other under normal, non-life threatening circumstances.
