Summary
Buck had once told Eddie the universe was screaming at him. Truthfully, he should have screamed back.
What a cruel joke, Eddie thinks, hysterically. Take me instead, your fight is with me.
Buck & Eddie get stuck. They have a lot of feelings about it.

Summary
“Whoa, buddy!” The man with all his working limbs says, bending down in front of Christopher, putting himself between the toddler and the road. “Roads are no fun for babies.”
And Eddie, as stated, already cannot breathe. When he does try to breathe, he’s sucking in burning flames. So it takes a minute to register that the nice man who just saved his baby’s life is - - fuck. Of course. Of course, it’s his hot new neighbor.
Or, Eddie is injured. He also has a toddler. His next door neighbor keeps them alive.

Summary
Maddie blinks, her heart dropping into her stomach. That's Evan’s address.
“We have one male, late twenties with a concussion and a suspected fractured collarbone, and a second male with a possible fractured ankle.”
Suddenly, she recognises the voice.
"Eddie?”
There’s a moment of silence, then a muffled, "I think I got Maddie.”
AKA, the firefam responds to a rather embarrassing call at Buck’s place.

Summary
Thundering footsteps come down the hallway, bust into the room.
Eddie, pausing at first in the doorway, then eyes bursting wide in shock. He jumps to Buck’s side, hand warm and heavy across his back.
A guttural sound comes from deep in Buck’s chest–not a scream or a groan, something instinctual and animalistic, a rabbit as the wolf's teeth dig into its neck.
"Buck? Holy shit. Buck, Buck, what did she give you? What did you give him?" Eddie shouts.
"Mom?" Buck whimpers.

“I think I can reach my helmet,” Eddie said as he strained for the item, finally able to scoot it within reach, “aha got it! Now we can have some light in here.”
Eddie fumbled with the switch on the helmet light.
Buck sucked in a sharp breath when he realized, “No Eddie, don’t.”
It was too late. Buck couldn’t stop what was coming, and neither could Eddie.

Eddie gets stuck in a collapsing building and Buck runs back in for him. While they wait to be rescued, Buck distracts Eddie and keeps him calm. So Buck's okay right?
Maybe not

Summary
“Okay,” Chim said, voice rough but steady. “That’s it. It’s down. Everyone in one piece?”
“Good here,” Ravi said, brushing dust off his jacket.
“Same,” Harry added.
“Yep,” Eddie said with a short, sarcastic laugh. “And you called me ridiculous for not trusting technology. Guess I was right all along, huh?”
He waited for the usual comeback, the snort, the eye-roll, something from Buck to break the tension.
But all that came back was a wet, choking gurgle.
Snapping his attention to the source, Eddie saw Buck leaning against the wall, hands gripping his throat, blood seeping through his fingers.
Eddie froze.

Summary
There's an insistent tapping on Buck's face, and Buck's eyes drift open back up towards-
"Eddie," he says, maybe slurring through his name. It doesn't feel right, as if the words are buffering somewhere between his brain and mouth.
"Eyes on me," Eddie says, except it splits somewhere down the middle.
He has a determined look on his face, the one he wears when he's trying to make sense of a bad call, mouth set and ticked down at the corner. Buck knows that look as surely as he knows how to breathe, the same way his heart knows how to beat. Eddie is gravity, the pull at the center of Buck's world, and even now, when Buck can't find his footing, he can't help but be drawn toward him.
Behind Eddie's eyes, Buck sees fear.

Summary
Eddie thought wearing a bulletproof vest would protect him.
It’s designed to cover his chest, to prevent any real damage from happening to him. It completely shelters his heart, so no bullet can penetrate such a vital organ and shatter it into pieces.
At least, it’s supposed to.
It doesn’t.
A sharp crack, a violent whizzing sound, and suddenly Eddie’s ears are ringing.
Time seems to slow down around him as he staggers backwards, almost as if he’s been shoved back by an unseen force.
or; The 118 respond to the hostage situation at the grocery store, but this time someone gets hurt.

Summary
Eddie licked his dry lips as he reached for his radio, trying to keep his movements slow and delicate to prevent any more damage to himself or Buck. “Diaz to Captain Nash.”
“Go for Nash,” came Bobby’s quick reply. “You two okay? Where are you?”
“We’re in a bit of a sticky situation here…”
“We’re a shish kabob, Cap!” Buck chimed in.
Eddie rolled his eyes.

Summary
“You think he took something?” Eddie asked, distracted.
His focus was fixed on the way Buck’s other hand had come up to his face, fingertips trailing softly along his cheekbone, worshipful and unfiltered.
“Pretty,” Buck whispered. “So pretty. Like… like a doll. Or…no. Not a doll. They can be creepy.”

Summary
He stands up, because Eddie does not cower from knocks at — he checks his phone — 10:52 PM, even though every true crime podcast his abuela forwards him suggests this is exactly how people end up as a Dateline episode.
He looks through the peephole.
He blinks.
He looks again.
There is a man on his porch. Which, fine, he expected a man. What he did not expect is for the man to be — and Eddie needs a second here, because he’s processing several things simultaneously and doing a poor job with all of them — approximately six foot two, broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted, visibly muscular in a way that suggests either a dedicated gym routine or a genetic lottery win or both, and completely, entirely, spectacularly naked.
Except for the potted succulent he's holding in front of his crotch.
Eddie's succulent. From Eddie's porch. The one Chris named Potricia.

The odds of the universe dropping a naked man on your doorstep are low, but never zero.Bookmarked by rubyandbenny926

Summary
"Hey," Eddie says. "Can we go outside for a minute?"
Buck looks up and his face is carefully neutral, which on Buck is the equivalent of a five-alarm blaze because this man has never been neutral about a single thing in his life.
"Sure."
They leave cash on the table and step out into the parking lot. The air is heavy and thick with honeysuckle and asphalt and the far-off electric promise of rain. The cat is gone and the neon sign buzzes above them, pink and sputtering.
"I don't want to stay here tonight," Eddie says.
Buck’s eyebrows tick up. "Okay?"
Hesitating, cutting a look back at the diner, Eddie says, "Look, I know we were gonna find a motel somewhere around here but this place doesn't sit right with me. I can't explain it. I'd rather just keep driving."
He's bracing for Buck to push back, to ask what specifically feels wrong, use this as a doorway back into the booth and the hand and all of it. But Buck just looks at his face for a second and nods.
"Yeah. Okay. Let's go."

Summary
Maddie’s eyebrows rise, and she looks past Buck to Eddie, the corners of her mouth curling upwards. “My kisses don’t work on Uncle Eddie,” she says, and if she thinks Buck misses the way she says it—Uncle Eddie—she’s sorely mistaken. He knows exactly what she’s doing.
And he realizes too late that that means he should probably be afraid.
Jee gasps, eyes going wide. “What?” She asks breathlessly. “Then how will his ouchies get better?”
Maddie hums thoughtfully—performatively—before her eyes slowly slide over to Buck. He starts to shake his head, unsure exactly what she’s about to do but deeply aware that he’s not going to like it. “I have heard,” she says, leaning into her like she has a secret, “That best friend kisses are just as good as mommy kisses.” She tosses her hair over her shoulder and looks at Chimney. “And almost as strong as daddy kisses, too.”

Summary
“The 5-4-3-2-1 grounding technique is a mindfulness tool used to manage anxiety and overwhelm by engaging the five senses to reconnect with the present moment. It involves identifying 5 things you see, 4 things you feel, 3 things you hear, 2 things you smell, and 1 thing you taste. This technique helps interrupt the cycle of panic by shifting focus from anxious thoughts to physical sensations, calming the nervous system. It can be done anywhere, such as at a desk, at home, or on the move.”
“Okaaay…” Buck says to himself, “Let’s give this a go.”

Five things Buck can hold onto, and one that holds him back.
