Summary
After the tsunami, Buck doesn't become a fire marshal. He joins Dispatch, and he works there until he is cleared to go back to work once he is off the blood thinners. But Buck's confidence in himself and his abilities has been shot ever since he lost Christopher in the tsunami, blame and fear convincing him that he isn't ready to go back to firefighting because he doesn't trust himself anymore. So, at dispatch he stays.
Until a call to 3-Alarm fire downtown goes sour and leads to the first responders scrambling for help, but help isn't coming.
Until Buck realises he is the only help available.

Summary
"Eddie!" Buck barges into Eddie's house with his strawberries and honey and burning need to understand what the fuck just happened. "Why have you been telling everyone at the farmer's market you're gay and have a husband??!"
"Uh, cause I haven't?" Eddie says, looking confused, mug halfway to his mouth.
"Then why does everyone at the farmer's market think you're gay and happily married?" Buck exclaims. "Gayly!"
or
Everyone at the farmer's market thinks Eddie is gay and married, and Buck has no fucking clue how they got that idea.

Summary
Approximately ten seconds had passed before Hen hastily folded the letter again, shoving it back into Eddie's hands, her eyes slightly wide. "You - er - you should be reading this. Not me."
Eddie looked at her curiously. "Hen -"
She shook her head. "No, I'm serious. That is not for my eyes, Diaz. I'll - I'll go and search the living room. You - you should read it. I heavily urge you to read it," she added, a little softer this time.
Well, fuck it.
Eddie started to read.

Summary
“I’m alive,” Eddie whispers, pulling Buck in closer by his waist, all of them touching. Pulling Buck out of his head, pulling him closer to him. “We’re alive. It’s okay. We’re gonna be okay.”
“I thought you were dead,” Buck’s voice cracks in so many places it’s barely legible, but Eddie hears it anyway. Hears him anyway.
“I know,” he whispers, and he sounds broken. Severed clean in two, a gaping, bleeding wound. “I know, baby. So did I.”
—a tiny motel room and the confessions that come with almost losing the love of your life.
a 9x13 coda.

Summary
“Are we going to talk about it?” Buck blurted.
Eddie glanced over, a little surprised. “What part? You getting kidnapped by a crazy couple, or me fleeing the cops because they thought I killed you?” He gave Buck a half-hearted smirk, and Buck still couldn’t decode what Eddie was thinking.
“No…” Buck took a deep breath. “What happened at the diner.”or
Post-episode 9x13. On their way home, Eddie and Buck have a much-needed heart-to-heart about what happened.
