Summary
Bobby’s last words leave Buck lost in grief and guilt, slowly pulling him inward.
As he retreats, Eddie is left on the outside, grasping for a connection that keeps slipping through his fingers.
Sometimes, distance hurts more than loss.
And sometimes, it takes everything breaking apart to bring two people back together.- Language:

Summary
“How did you get home from the hospital?”
“Took an uber.”
“Does Maddie know?” Silence. “Does anyone?” More silence. More of Buck refusing to meet his gaze, staring at the door like he thought he could entice Eddie to leave by the power of suggestion. Well, good fucking luck, Eddie thought. Wild horses, and all that. “Why didn’t you call anyone?” he demanded. “Why didn’t you call me?”
“I did!” Buck snarled. The momentum of his indignation carried him into a sitting position, and Eddie could see him flinch with the pain of it. His unnaturally stoic front was gone, and something raw and wrenching took its place; it occurred to Eddie that he’d never heard Buck raise his voice before. “I did call you, Eddie! As I was bleeding out on my kitchen floor. You. Didn’t. Answer.”

The squatter in Buck's attic has a knife. Buck has a bit of a breakdown. Eddie has a plan to make everything right.

Summary
"She said they weren't bad people so I'm guessing they weren't abusive?"
It felt like a bucket of ice water had just been dumped on Buck's head. Chimney's question hit Buck harder than he ever thought it would. He hadn't thought about his parents in a decade, hadn't seen or talked to them in longer. He had stopped flinching away from the phantom hands long ago, stopped squirming when Bobby squeezed his shoulder or Chimney patted his back, learned that Hen's hugs were unconditional and loving, and absolutely thrived when any of them showed him affection. Most of all, he loved when Eddie pressed a knee into Buck's during meals at work, or when he sat far closer than necessary in the firetruck, he preened when the love of his life his best friend squeezed his bouncing knee or let his hands linger longer than normal for two "platonic best friends".
One mention of his parents though, and that world was falling apart.
