    Summary

    Christopher left with barely a word. Bobby retired without telling the team, without even telling Buck. It aches, but Buck is better equipped to handle the situation than most. He’s lived with this pain for so long it feels like a part of him, tucked away in a corner of his heart. People leave him all the time, he’s had a lot of opportunities to get good at what comes after. It hurts, sure, but Buck knows he’ll survive it, knows how to cope with it, knows how to go on living.

    Eddie doesn’t.

    -----------------

    Christopher's gone, Bobby's in forced retirement, Gerrard is a terror, and Buck is trying to keep his family together, at any cost.

    Eddie needs to learn who he is and what he wants outside of being a father, of being a firefighter.

    As they work to rescue the people of Los Angeles from perilous disasters, they just might find a way to save each other.
