Summary
The car Eddie bought smells like stale cigarettes and mildew, and the seat creaks ominously when Buck heaves himself gingerly into it. He watches Eddie limp around to the driver's side and ease himself behind the wheel with the kind of studied caution that suggests he's in a lot more pain than he's letting on. The engine coughs as it turns over, but it starts. Buck watches through the rearview mirror as Los Nietos fades into the distance with a sense of relief that feels so enormous he could choke on it.
Or: Buck, and Eddie, and a ten hour drive home.

Summary
He opens up the browser, and it’s a faux pas to look at someone else’s browser history, it’s not like Chris doesn’t know that, but there’s only one way that Chris is ever going to know what his dad is thinking and doing, and that’s by snooping, because god forbid his dad actually communicate. The last thing on there is a soup recipe that they actually had for dinner a few days ago. It was good, even if it took forever. What catches Chris’ eye, though, is the website name. Eating with Eddie. How embarrassing to choose a recipe just because you have the same name as the blog owner. What a dad move.
---Eddie moves to El Paso, which is what it is. Chris might not be sure how he feels about it at first, but he finds a couple of different recipe blogs that make him rethink. Or, Eddie and Chris in Texas, told through the medium of recipes.

Summary
Buck knew the universe wasn’t really a huge fan of him. But this? This was a new low.
The last two weeks of working with Eddie Diaz had been a special type of hell. Of course, while he’d been out of work nearly dying several times, Bobby had managed to replace him with the hottest, most competent probie that ever graduated the Academy. And of course, he hated Buck.
Which was good, because Buck hated him right back.
-----
In a world where everyone's timing is just a little off, Buck and Eddie take a few more missteps on the way to finding each other.

Summary
Buck keeps him everywhere. He’s smuggling him into every inch left vacant, because like this, he doesn’t lose him, won’t lose him. Like this, he gets to keep Eddie forever, even if it’s just the pieces and the memories attached. The reminder of him will haunt him and this apartment like a ghost. Because Buck can’t trap him in his apartment and force him to stay, he’d never ask that, couldn’t ask that, but he’s going to damn well do his best to salvage it in some form. He’s kidnapping Eddie’s shadow, no matter how much it hurts, and there’s no choice about it.
Eddie announces he’s leaving. Buck, naturally, begins a slow descent to madness.
[ALT. summary: Buck has resolved to be the greatest friend ever. He’s handling this move so well. And not at all being abnormal about Eddie’s house. Or Eddie’s belongings. Or, well. Eddie.]

Summary
Adriana doesn’t tell their parents that she’s going to LA. She doesn’t tell Eddie, either—or ask, for that matter.
She does ask Chris, and he thinks it’s a good idea—says as much, on the phone, and doesn’t say much else.
“Buck will probably be hovering,” is what Chris does volunteer.
It still surprises her when the man who opens the door is not Eddie. It’s—Captain America, is the thing that actually comes to mind—a man close to a foot taller than she is, if not more than that, with blond curls and broad shoulders, and he’s got a question in his very blue eyes that’s probably less friendly than the one he actually asks her.
“Uh,” he says. “Can I help you?”
—
Or: Adriana arrives in LA. Maddie has been here the whole time.
