    Summary

    Eddie left, and Buck had to learn how to live with it. With an empty house, with quiet nights, with the aching space Eddie used to fill.

    So he moved on. Or at least, he tried. He found new distractions, new hands to hold him down, new lips to whisper his name.

    But then Eddie came back. And suddenly, none of it feels like enough.

    Summary

    The universe has a funny way of balancing its books. For every week Buck spends being genuinely happy, life eventually decides it's time to correct the course. A trip to Nashville for the National Firefighter Games seemed like a nice break -until Buck runs into a ghost from his past: Dixie, the country singer he spent one summer with a decade ago.

    Or: the one where Buck wants a title, Eddie is terrible at feelings, and everyone at the Firefighter Games already thinks they're married.

    Summary

    No. Whatever it is, no. Eddie would like Buck to stop chasing whatever that thing is. Would like to grab the thought out of Buck’s concussed head and throw it out a window.

    Buck’s face drops into something serious, eyes wide. “You called me baby.”

    There it is. Out the window it did not go.

    “No, I didn’t,” Eddie says.

    Very smooth. Convincing.

    “You did.” Buck points at him, floppy and triumphant. “At the— the thing. With the— you said it. You called me baby.”

    “I didn’t say that.”

    “Eddie.” Buck is delighted. “I heard you. I was concussed, not deaf.”

    “I didn’t call you baby,” Eddie scoffs. “I called you a baby. Because you got a bump on the head and were crying about it.”

    “That’s not—” Buck starts.

    “You were being a baby,” Eddie continues, standing now, because a moving target is harder to hit. “I’m gonna go tell the others you’re awake.”

    “Eddie.”

    “Rest your head, bud.”

    Or,
    Eddie calls Buck baby by accident.
