Summary
“Sorry,” Eddie says suddenly, with a little frown between his eyebrows that makes Buck’s next breath come in a wheeze. “I didn’t even ask if you’re okay. Any anxiety? Shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat?”
“Not—uh,” Buck coughs, trying so hard to say something normal, but against his best efforts, what comes out is: “Not because of the elevator.”
Eddie’s eyebrows climb up his forehead.
“I’m not claustrophobic, is what I mean,” Buck says, but the damage has been done. “Just, you know.”
or the one in which buck stumbles on the rest of his life in a malfunctioning courthouse elevator.

Summary
“Eddito.” She reaches over, grasping his hands in hers. “I know you loved your Shannon. And I loved my Luis. He gave me my family, just as Shannon gave you your Christopher. And I know you wouldn’t change any of that. But I don’t want you to make the same mistakes I did. I don’t want you to have the same regrets. It is not too late for you. You should be happy. And I think we both know who it is that will give that to you.
“I know you think you have to give Christopher what you think he is missing. Christopher is not missing anything. You are a wonderful father, my Eddito. And everything else you already have. He is always there for you boys. He loves you.”
“He doesn’t,” Eddie says, voice thick with too much of everything he hasn’t let himself feel.

Summary
“Hey, Eddie?”
Buck’s voice rings softly in the quiet. A casual lilt on his tongue as he says his name.
“Hm?”
“Tell you something?”
Shrugging, Eddie keeps his eyes fixed at the ceiling above him.
“We got time.”
--
Or, how Buck shattered Eddie's entire world one night by confessing his love to him.

Summary
“That’s not—” Eddie starts, but cuts himself off as he snaps his mouth shut. “It’s different, Buck.”
“How?” Buck asks, cheeks a heady pink. He steps into Eddie’s space, the anger nearly evaporating into something more quiet and devastating. “How is it different?”
And this. This is what breaks him.
“Because,” Eddie nearly yells, “you were able to save me from the line of fire, but I couldn’t pull you up the ladder!”

Summary
Buck thinks it must be a habit he still hasn’t dropped from his days in the army, or maybe it comes with the territory of being a dad – but Eddie can nap pretty much anywhere.
or, Eddie starts casually falling asleep against Buck, and Buck is very normal about it.
