Summary
“Are you going to kill me?”
“What? What, no! What would make-,” you think that? You have one guess, Buckley.
Buck sank from his chair to his knees, moving to sit in front of the boy on the ground.
“Christopher, I am not going to hurt you. I couldn't.”
“You promise?”
He raised his fist, his pinky sticking out. Christopher wrapped his around Buck's.
“You may not know this but pinky promises are sacred in the Buckley family.” He put the slightest bit more pressure on his pinky.
“Hey! Get away from my son!”

Summary
"Yeah, well, we have—moved on." Eddie's expression didn’t soften. "You should too, Buck."
He deflated, the fight draining out of him. For the first time since they met, Buck felt like he was staring at a stranger.
“Uh— yeah I get it,” he finally said. “And I really am sorry.”
He watched as Eddie's figure retreated.
If Buck had stayed quiet, maybe he could have kept pretending that time would heal this wound. After that disaster of a conversation, Buck wasn't sure it ever would.
He stood there, windows forgotten, feeling something he’d known his whole life shift into place.
Buck never thought Eddie would be the one to show him he was right.
