    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.

    Summary

    “I just wanna say thank you, for you know, dealing with my stubborn ass.” He said, offering a hand to the medic.

    Eddie chuckled at first, but clapped his hand with Buckley’s and shook it, smiling broadly at him.

    “Be safe out there, sailor.” Eddie smiled, watching as the other man waved off the rest of his team in order to say a proper goodbye.

    “You too, soldier.” He grinned and mock saluted him: “I hope if we ever see each other again it’s under better circumstances.”

    Summary

    Evan “Buck” Buckley was not an honest person as much as he would like to be or even was trying to be in his own way. His dishonesty wasn’t malicious in the slightest though. He had his reasons, of course, but his entire identity was built on a shaky Jenga tower of lies. As much as he built it up, one by one the blocks were still removed over the years making the tower less and less stable.

    Buck joined the 118 fresh out of the Navy and braced himself for all the questions that were about to come his way which he did not want to answer. Then, like a gift from above, somehow and shockingly, no one had read his resume, and he found he could start all over again, be a new person, someone completely different or maybe who he was supposed to be all along.

    Summary

    “Are you going to kill me?”
    “What? What, no! What would make-,” you think that? You have one guess, Buckley.
    Buck sank from his chair to his knees, moving to sit in front of the boy on the ground.
    “Christopher, I am not going to hurt you. I couldn't.”
    “You promise?”
    He raised his fist, his pinky sticking out. Christopher wrapped his around Buck's.
    “You may not know this but pinky promises are sacred in the Buckley family.” He put the slightest bit more pressure on his pinky.

    “Hey! Get away from my son!”
    -
