    Summary

    Like he’s been electrocuted, the ghost jolts backwards and his hand spasms in the air, like he wanted to reach out to Evan. Evan holds his polar bear teddy bear closer to his chest, the one that Maddie got for him at their school’s book fair, and waits.

    The ghost waits, too.

    Evan’s never been the most patient kid, though. “Are you lost?” Evan sits back, and the ghost starts to glisten, shimmering at the edges and looks close to disappearing from sight. “Are you going to keep coming back?” When Evan doesn’t get any response, sees nothing from the ghost to show he heard him, he asks one more question.

    “Will you be my friend?”

    And then he’s gone.

    The window is still cracked open, and he still feels the breeze twist in his hair.

    ***

    Evan Buckley was born with a ghost quietly haunting him. A ghost was born to quietly haunt Evan Buckley. Evan Buckley's never been able to stay quiet for too long, though.

    Summary

    “Hi, I’m Buck, a firefighter with the 136,” for now, the thought crashes through Buck, leaving a sour taste in his mouth. “Uh, you’re both welcome to take a tour with us, if you’d like.” Buck awkwardly scratches at his neck, running a hand through his hair, unsure what else to do, and it spurs the man in front of him to take a large step forward up to Buck’s bed.

    “Eddie,” he says, thrusting a hand to him, and Buck reaches over without a second thought. His whole palm feels electric, it smarts and carries the touch of Eddie, Eddie, that Buck feels it completely. He has no idea what’s happening to him. “Edmundo Diaz, but just Eddie though, uh, no one calls me Edmundo. Right. I’m a new nurse here, at Cedars-Senai. Oh –”

    ***

    When Daniel Buckley lives a little longer, Evan Buckley dies a little more. And this is how Eddie Diaz saves him, a little later on.

    Summary

    When the firefighter walks into Eddie's coffeeshop, Eddie immediately knows two things about him: he's not human, and he's the love of Eddie's life.

    Oh, he knows a bunch of other things too, obviously. He's about thirty, a few months younger than Eddie himself. He has a scar on his throat, like he got stabbed there, and one of his legs has some metal rods in it that must have come from a bad injury. The guy doesn't know he's not human, which is a tricky thing to figure out, but Eddie's almost positive. Most of the non-humans he knows have always known they aren't people, but there are exceptions, and they tend to carry themselves differently. Ana before her first full moon as a werewolf had a very different vibe from Ana after.

    The firefighter moves like he knows he doesn't belong, but not like he knows why. Like he's afraid of taking up space, afraid of being noticed.

    As if Eddie is even capable of not noticing him.

    Summary

    “Are we going to talk about it, then?” Hen says, her voice amused.

    Eddie turns the page of his book. “Talk about what?” he asks, his words a deliberate sort of quiet, as if he’s worried about waking Buck up. And God, if that doesn’t make the ache around Buck’s heart pulse.

    “The 6’5 giant using your lap as a pillow?”

    Okay, great. Now Buck is not only taking advantage of his best friend, but he’s doing it while eavesdropping on a conversation about him that they all think he’s too asleep to hear.

    in which buck pretends to be asleep and overhears something he shouldn't.
