Summary
"...I was serious when I told you it’s my problem, too. You barely know me, but I’m yours. I have been for a long time. I love you. I’ll do everything in my power to keep you as comfortable as possible, and I’m asking you to trust me, okay?”
Eddie could not respond. The words were suddenly trapped too deep inside of him.
“So, please, take your time tonight. Get some sleep. I’m just down the hall if you need anything you can’t get yourself, alright?”
Eddie could only nod, this time with a hint of shame, stuck on those three small words that Buck had sandwiched into the conversation like they were the easiest three words in the whole world. Who could just say those words to a wreck like Eddie and mean it?
OR,
Eddie, married to Buck, wakes up in the hospital after a head injury on the job, but the last thing he remembers is getting shot down in Afghanistan eight years earlier.
