    Summary

    Josh won’t give up until he puts his guy into the Oval Office, or until he dies trying.

    While on the primary campaign trail, Donna finds out what exactly Josh is giving up to run the Santos campaign and proposes a bold solution: marriage.

    Summary

    “It’ll go fine.” Howie advised. “I don’t like the idea of you being there alone,” he joked with a small little smile. “But it’ll be okay.”

    “I’m not alone.” Maddie teased with a matching smile of her own.

    “You’re right.” Howie conceded. “You have our scary baby girl to hold everyone off.”

    Maddie snorted. “I meant -.”

    “I know what you meant.” Howie sobered. “I like the idea of him being there even less.”

    Maddie’s stomach jolted. “Do you think I made a mistake?” She asked cautiously. “Should I have told him not to come?”

    Howie waved a hand to the side. “Nah,” he shrugged. “We both know Buck’s going to Buck.”

    --

    Or, realizing that the family that you need has been beside you all along.

    Summary

    Ravi figures he has to be the last one to find out, especially since he’s finding out like this. He supposes that’s what he gets for bouncing around between the A shift and the B shift so much since he’s been back at the 118, but still.

    It happens like this: he had been this close! like, minutes away from printing out a new tenant lease! when the prospective renter in question calls the leasing office and mentions that she won’t be needing the 1 bed, 1 bath walk up in Faircrest Heights any more because she snagged a 2 bath loft downtown that seemed like a once in a lifetime opportunity.

    or: Ravi's landlord status makes him privy to some confidential information about the 118's finest.

    Summary

    “It’s just that—I died,” Buck continues, voice unsteady enough that Eddie wonders if this is the first time he’s acknowledged that out loud. “I died, and there’s so much more. There’s so much more I want to do, things I don’t even know I want to do yet, and I almost had the chance to have and live them taken away. I don’t want to die and regret missing out on everything else, Eddie.”

     

    “So let’s make a list,” Eddie says. “Let’s do them.”

     

    or, a bucket list that’s really about buck needing to make a change and an eddie who’s ready to do anything to see him fall in love with life again. it takes some crossing off for eddie to realise—the thing at the top of the list in his own heart? it’s been right here all along

    Summary

    It feels like there’s a ball of sunlight lodged behind Eddie’s rib cage. It’s humming beneath his skin, running through his bloodstream, seeping into his bones. It lights him up from the inside out, and Eddie feels so very alive whenever Buck looks at him like this - like he’s something worth looking at. Like he’s everything.

    For a moment he thinks back to that night in the hospital waiting room, when Eddie was so cold that he couldn’t remember what warmth felt like.

    Well. It feels an awful lot like this.

     

    (Or, five time Eddie loves Buck by accident, and the one time he loves him on purpose.)
