Summary
From a very young age, Evan Buckley knew he would end up alone.
After Eddie leaves to go after Chris, Buck knows that he needs to get out of Los Angeles for a while. He travels just like he did before he joined the 118, looking for a reason to keep going after losing the family he thought would finally stay.
Eddie moves to Texas and slowly but surely gains the trust of his son back. After 4 long months of long conversations and hard realizations, Christopher finally wants to move back to Los Angeles.
But what happens when they return and Buck is nowhere to be found, and nobody but Maddie is able to get in contact with him? What happens when Eddie finds out just how badly he hurt the love of his life, and now he can't tell him just how much he truly needs him to be okay?

Summary
“Just say it, Chim,” Eddie replies, his tone clipped.
Chimney winces but presses on. “Eddie…” He hesitates, glancing at Karen like he’s begging her for an out. She nods firmly. No turning back now. “Buck is dead.”
The line goes silent. A heavy, eerie silence that settles over the room like a shroud. She knows what Eddie must be feeling right now—the cold shock, the hollow ache, the frantic disbelief. She remembers how it felt when Chim had told her Hen was dead, how her world had stopped spinning for one agonizing moment. Her hands curl into fists against the table. This is fine. This is part of the plan.
But then there’s a screech through the phone, followed by an extended, blaring honk.
Karen’s stomach drops. Her eyes dart to Hen’s, wide with alarm.
Fuck.
OR: When Eddie leaves for Texas on bad terms with Buck, their friends can't help but meddle.

Summary
' Buck, speak of the devil, dropped down the last few feet. Bracing one foot against the rocky cliff and the other against the bumper, he secured his line and glanced up. The moment his eyes met Hondo’s, he faltered, foot slipping slightly against the rock.
“You okay, kid?”
It was impressive, the speed with which Buck recollected himself. Other than a slight downward quirk to his lips as though he had swallowed something sour, there was nothing on his face to tip off discomfort. An odd reaction, as far as he knew Buck had never met this man before. Eddie couldn’t help but furrow his brow. 'Evan "Buck" Buckley doesn't lie to his loved ones. At least, not any more than he needs to. He's made quite the life for himself at the 118 with people he loves and not a care in the world (at least, as far as anybody can tell) about his past before the 118. His past that he has historically been a bit vague about. When a blast from the past appears on a call, he is realizing that he might not have gotten away so scott-free from his past occupation. Cue Eddie noticing. Now, Buck has to navigate the collision between his past and his present.

Summary
“Buck—”
Buck’s voice rose, teetering on the edge of desperation. “And now, you’re just gone? Chris mentions chess club, and it’s all, ‘oh, I guess I have to uproot my entire life and move back to El Paso’? I mean, what’s—”
“Careful,” Eddie warned, and Buck scoffed.
“I’m sorry, but seriously? That’s all it takes? What about the 118? What about—”
“You?”
Buck stopped short, breath halting as if Eddie had stuck a knife between his ribs.—
or, Post 8x08, Buck and Eddie deal poorly with their feelings, and Buck gets shot. Not necessarily in that order.
