This Time 2
Evan, Buck, Buckley, awoke with a gasp in tangled bedding. Sweat sheened on him and covered on his sheets. The dream seemed so real of the time upcoming. Eddie cheating on his girlfriend with a look-a-like of his dead wife in front of Chris and Marisol. Marisol breaks up with him and Chris for some reason, punishing both of them by going to Eddie’s parents for a summer of hell. Eddie follows with Eddie talking him into moving into his place instead of getting a place of his own.
Then comes back to threaten him to get out as they were moving back right after Bobby’s death from malpractice on the governments end. To being stopped once again from transferring out when he finds his crew mates toxic in the extreme as Chim takes over as captain again. To being forced to go cross-country by those well-meaning with Eddie as they all want them both to literally kiss and make up. EEEEWWWWWW. Ed’s is his brother and that was incest.
Then, the end after he was kidnapped like his sister by serial killers and he ended up back in his bed when they came after him.
What weird dreams, he thought as he got up to take a shower to get the sweat off of him, when there was a knock at his door. Checking it with his phone he got deja-vu as he saw Chris in the same outfit, he was wearing the last time Eddie had been caught kissing the bitch in front of his son in his dream.
If the dream wasn’t one…. Oh, shit he needed to change things fast, he thought as he opened the door and let his pseudo son in. All mad at the world and his dad and fuming.
Buck let him get it off his chest then told him that he still had clothes there and therefore would be staying with him until his father could get his head on straight. In fact, he was siccing Pepa and her whole family on his ass since Marisol was related to her and he hurt her just as much. To which Chris groaned but grinned as Buck madly texted Pepa to let her know what had happened.
Buck then did a quick group text to Athena and Eddie to let them both know he had Chris and he was going to stay with him till things cooled down for a bit. Eddie because he was Chris’ father and Athena as she had access to the police department if it got called in. Getting okays from both of them. Then he called in an order for breakfast as there was no way he was cooking right now. After which he put in an emergency text to his new therapist to call him for a referral for a teen therapist.
Hopefully he could stop the other disasters coming their way now that he had a heads up, but either way, he was going to go in with his eyes open and prepared.
And damnit he still needed that shower as he stank with sweat.
