    Summary

    “Are you finally proposing?” Buck asks, and the air rushes out of Eddie like he’s been punched in the gut, a swift burst.

    Hearing it from Buck makes it real, solidified, no longer a shapeless fantasy in his head.

    "Proposing what?”

    “Marriage, genius.” Buck snorts. “Duh.”

    Buck peels Eddie's pomegranates, carves out the brown spots from his apples, eats the ugly, discolored fruit. Eddie wants to propose, spirals, and crashes a car about it.

    Summary

    Captain Buckley’s face creases, his expression disfavourable. “I’m, uh, not really into the whole Sir thing,” he tells Eddie, scratching along the slope of his grey-stubbled chin. “Still getting used to being called Cap, if I’m being honest. Most people here just call me Buck.”

    “Buck?” Eddie repeats the name with the intonation of a question.

    “There were three other Evans in my class at the Academy,” Captain Buckley explains, shrugging casually with the huge mountain range of his wide, wide shoulders. “Even after all these years, it’s managed to stick.”

    OR: Eddie's probationary firefighter year at the 118, under the watchful eye and expert tutelage of Fire Captain Evan Buckley.

    Summary

    Eddie really shouldn’t, but he asks, “Book of stories?”

    “Yeah,” Chris says. “That’s how I know Buck’s your true love, and how I know this whole town is a curse that my grandparents cast.”

    Oh dear god.

    Eddie’s makes a couple of incomprehensible sounds as he stares across the street and sees the slice of the harbor between the buildings. But eventually, in the interest of conversation, he asks, “So I’m in this book?”

    “Yeah,” Christopher says. “I don’t know all what happened because some of the pages are torn out, but I know you and Buck met and fell in love.”

    Summary

    Buck doesn’t take his hands off Eddie’s shoulders as he glances over to Athena and Nash, who are watching the display calibrate. “How’d we do?”

    “See for yourself,” Athena says.

    Bad, Eddie thinks.

    But he can’t read her – doesn’t know what it’s going to say. For all he knows, he’s going to look up and the words Eddie Diaz Should Be Dead will be flashing across the screen. He half-expects it.

    He wants to brace Buck for it, for the disappointment – wants to explain that whatever has screwed his compatibility scores till now, this one is all on Eddie.

    “Oh, shit…” Buck whispers.

    Eddie lifts his head, finally lets himself look, and then takes an inhale so sharp he tastes blood.

    Oh, shit.

    Summary

    Buck pulls away, just an inch or two, breathing heavily into Eddie’s open mouth. “What’s—what’s gotten into you, baby?”

    Eddie ducks his head, suddenly shy again, and Buck burns with admiration at how soft and delicate he can be, how coy.

    “Eddie. Eddie,” Buck says, quiet, so soft. “Hey. Can you look at me?”

    With a sigh, Eddie looks up at him, nodding instead of answering.

    “You—you want something from me. Right?”

    ...or, Eddie learns how to ask for what he wants.
