Summary
“Buck?” Eddie asks when he opens the door. “What’s- is that a baby?”
Buck doesn’t know what to say other than, “Help.”
Buck's running late to work when he finds the baby on his doorstep, and that pretty much sums up this portion of his life. Now he must figure out what to do, how to do it, and why doing it with Eddie gives him a feeling he can’t shake.

Summary
From a very young age, Evan Buckley knew he would end up alone.
After Eddie leaves to go after Chris, Buck knows that he needs to get out of Los Angeles for a while. He travels just like he did before he joined the 118, looking for a reason to keep going after losing the family he thought would finally stay.
Eddie moves to Texas and slowly but surely gains the trust of his son back. After 4 long months of long conversations and hard realizations, Christopher finally wants to move back to Los Angeles.
But what happens when they return and Buck is nowhere to be found, and nobody but Maddie is able to get in contact with him? What happens when Eddie finds out just how badly he hurt the love of his life, and now he can't tell him just how much he truly needs him to be okay?

Summary
“Hello?”
“I’m looking to speak to an Evan Buckley.”
“Umm, speaking.” His pulse quickens. He can feel it in his fingertips.
“This is Luitenant Cantu from the EPFD. I’m calling about Firefighter Diaz, or more specifically his son, Christopher Diaz.”
“Oh my god, is he okay?”
“We’re in contact with Child Protective Services and it says here that you’re his legal guardian. Since Firefighter Diaz has been missing for 12 hours, we need somewhere to send Christopher. Would you be able to take him?”
-OR-

Summary
“If I had,” Chris lingers on the words, watching Eddie intently through the screen, “If I had conditions?”
Eddie feels his stomach knot up. It’s the first time Chris has ever alluded to a willingness to come home. Usually he just shoots Eddie down with a flat “I know” before hurrying off the call. Eddie Diaz will be damned before he lets this chance slip through his hands.
“Anything,” his voice rings with desperation in his own ears, “Whatever you need to feel ready to come home. If I can make it happen, I will.”
Chris eyes him, young face serious as a judge presiding over trial. An apt comparison because only Chris could condemn or parole Eddie. His fate is in his son’s hands so completely that if he was going to therapy, Frank would probably be concerned. Finally, Chris opens his mouth and says something so earth shattering as to crack the foundations of his father’s mind.
“Marry Buck,” Chris says firmly.
