Summary
Three weeks after Eddie leaves for Texas, Buck gets a call in the middle of the night from a trauma center in El Paso. Eddie was in a serious car accident and has been rushed into surgery for a skull fracture. Buck rushes to Texas, finding that things are even messier than he imagined, and that's before Eddie wakes up and confesses that he's not sure it was actually an accident. That he might have done it on purpose. So Buck does what his parents never did for him: he steps in, all the way, and helps put his little family back together.

Summary
When Shannon died, Eddie learned the hard way that the moment someone died all your chances to make it up to them died with them, all the things you never said and the things you wish you hadn’t. It’s a bit ironic, and certainly unfair, that the missed opportunities only ever manifest in hindsight. And perhaps it’s Eddie’s fatal flaw, that he only ever sees things in retrospect.
or;
Eddie is a man with many regrets. He prays that this won't be one of them.

Summary
He worked twice as much then he should have today, and yet he still felt like he underperformed. Pushing himself to train a little bit more that day, his knee gave out, and his leg crumbled under the weight, and he crashed to the ground. If Matt found out or saw, he’d force him to see a doctor. That meant he’d end up being benched and there was no way he was about to let that happen. He couldn't be benched. All his hard work would be for nothing. He would have nothing to show for the rest of the season if he’s just on the bench.

Summary
Eddie hums. Takes a sip of his own coffee, which Buck had left waiting for him on the table. It’s rich and dark and strong and hot, and he lets it work its way into his brain. Takes a breath and stretches himself out again, lets his toes curl into the soft pile of the rug under their feet.
“Let’s go for a run,” he says after a moment.
And so they do.
