Summary
Buck had been working at the 118 for 7 months now and his husband had been deployed for 11 excruciating months. Eddie only got so much time to call and Buck gave all of that time to Christopher. Instead Eddie and Buck communicated through old fashioned letters.
Buck wrote his weekly letter to Eddie and after his shift he sent the letter hoping he’d get a response soon. After a week the worry started to creep into every blood vessel in his body. But still Buck wrote another letter and sent it off.
Or Buck is trying to get through this last month of Eddie’s deployment when he goes radio silent. The 118 can tell something is up with their newest recruit but don’t know what until a dreaded phone call.

Summary
He’s been staring at his ceiling for what feels like the entire night and can’t shake this feeling he has had for weeks now. A memorable one, like an old friend. He doesn’t like to think about times like this; when he feels like this.
Running until his lungs burn and it hurts to breathe, he slows down and stares at his view of L.A. Not mesmerizing or happily or sadly, just staring painfully.
Or
Buck has had depression since his teenage years but didn’t know that it was depression. Weeks post lightning strike, he finds himself in one of these episodes but doesn’t want to be a burden to anyone. When the 118 notices something is off — specifically Eddie — they rush to help him.

Summary
Glory’s unwoken by the alarm, curled up on his chest, her tight curls tickling him lightly.
He watches her for a moment.
Yes, it’s not always comfortable to have a four year old sleeping in your bed, but sometimes she’s the only thing that helps him wind down and feel comfortable as well.
It’s probably kind of a codependent bond to have, but whatever. He’ll feel guilty about that when he gets through the million other things he has to think about.

In 2014, Buck is made aware of his infant daughter, after a tragedy back in Florida. Four years later, in LA, a new firefighter joins the team, one who has a few things in common with Buck...

Summary
“I leave in a week,” Eddie said quietly. “Minimum Five-month deployment.”
The spoon clattered against the counter, the sharp sound cutting through the air. Buck’s jaw tightened, his eyes narrowing with something too tangled to be just anger. “Five months? You were supposed to be done in three. No more deployments…We were supposed to finally settle down. Put down some roots. Be on the same fucking continent for more than a few months at a time.”
Or, They survived deployments and the kind of chaos only Buck could attract. Falling in love should’ve been the easy part. Now married and raising Christopher, they’ve finally built the family they once only dreamed about…except Eddie’s been deployed again, and long-distance is proving tougher than any mission.

Summary
Buck supposes in a way, he’s always been a little obsessive.
When a thought grips him—a fear—he’s rarely able to let go of it again. It digs its little claws into his brain and makes a home inside his head until eventually, it relents and loosens its hold. Sometimes, it’s only to make room for a new fear. Other times, it simply disappears on its own.
It’s just something he’s learned to live with—something he can live with.
And then he gets struck by lightning.
Or: After Buck gets struck by lightning, he starts to develop OCD.

Once he’s safely in the Jeep Buck lets his head fall back against the seat. He’s not having a panic attack, he’s not going to be sick, and he’s certainly not going to cry. Buck just feels lost. Suddenly he’s as much the kid the others think him to be. How is he supposed to cope with this.
“Why are you still fucking dead?” Buck asks the imaginary Bobby in the passenger seat. “You were supposed to be here for me for this sort of shit. You were supposed to tell me what to do.”
In the wake of Bobby's death and the birth of his nephew, Buck receives a diagnosis and makes some well meaning, but ultimately ill considered life choices. Will the path he's set himself on break him? Or will it be the making of the next new iteration of Buck?
