    Summary

    Buck was sure when Maddie called him to tell him that their parents were coming, and had already crossed the California state border, for a few days and he was expected to join them for dinner, that his day couldn’t get any worse. That was the worst possible news he could have gotten. He had no interest in seeing their parents, and the fact that they were in the place he found to be his home honestly made him want to flee the state and find some place new. If that didn’t mean leaving his family, his pack, anyway. 

    But there they were, himself and the rest of the A-shift, sitting on the sofas in the loft of the firehouse, watching the emergency news broadcast on the flat-screen TV on the wall. And Buck was struggling to pay attention to the words that were being said over the panic threatening to drown him. The fear. The memories that forced their ways up to the surface. 

    ...

    Set around the time of Buck begins. Buck learns that the things his parents and others forced upon him in the camp they sent him to when he presented have an expiration date and he would, one day soon, be an omega again. A tale of healing, found family, and building a family with the love of his life ensues.

    Summary

    “She said she wasn’t worried about us breaking up.”

    Oh. Well. That was pretty definitively a thing that people said about partners who were together romantically.

    “Say something,” Buck instructed.

    “What?”

    “Anything,” Buck said, his voice wavering on the word. Which was—it was weird, right? Why was Buck so shaken by a throwaway comment?

    Or maybe the better question was why wasn’t Eddie? If either of them was going to get freaked out by the assumption that he was dating a man, it would make more sense for it to be Eddie, who was straight, and not Buck, who had, in fact, already dated men.

    “Aren’t you going to be late for your shift?”

    -----

    Buck and Eddie get shaken up by a comment from Theo’s social worker, and then by a magnitude 7 earthquake; it turns out, some disasters are better than others.

    Summary

    “Guy?” Buck asks like he’s never heard the word before. “Eddie’s been talking to a guy? Like, a specific guy?”

    “Yeah,” Harry says. “He was talking about it the other day after work. I think they’ve been out like three or four times. Pretty sure he’s an electrician or something?”

    “An electrician…” What the fuck kind of real person is an electrician?

    Buck drums his fingers on the table and stares at his empty glass and wonders what possible conversation led to Eddie revealing this guy’s profession to Harry. It’s not like it’s interesting.

    Buck tries to picture what Eddie could’ve possibly said: I was out for the twelfth time this week and some random guy came up to me and said hey, I’m an electrician, can I put my stupid sweaty hand on your bicep and then crash your work function? And I said yes because I’m gay now and that means I have to go on a date with every fucking man in Los Angeles apparently.

    OR

    Eddie gets a boyfriend, and Buck has some feelings about him.

    Summary

    Eddie places two shaking fingers on Buck's neck, checking for a pulse; it is there, intermittent, weak, and thready. Buck’s eyes are shut, and his breathing is laboured; his chest hardly moves.

    He has bruising and a laceration to his left temple, a small streak of blood now comes from the corner of his mouth. There is a pool of red, sticky, warm fluid seeping from wounds across Buck's torso and seeping into his clothes; the rate is alarming.

    Or

    Buck is severely injured and lies in a coma, his life hangs in the balance between life or death. A story of courage and family.
