Summary
“Are we going to talk about it, then?” Hen says, her voice amused.
Eddie turns the page of his book. “Talk about what?” he asks, his words a deliberate sort of quiet, as if he’s worried about waking Buck up. And God, if that doesn’t make the ache around Buck’s heart pulse.
“The 6’5 giant using your lap as a pillow?”
Okay, great. Now Buck is not only taking advantage of his best friend, but he’s doing it while eavesdropping on a conversation about him that they all think he’s too asleep to hear.
in which buck pretends to be asleep and overhears something he shouldn't.

Summary
“Yeah, but what is it?” Hen asked, glancing at the tablet.
Bobby is silent and Eddie can take a wild guess that he’s seen the video already. He looks nearly on the verge of tears but he’s clearly trying to hold it together for all of them.
“Cap?” Chimney asked, brows pushed together.
“It’s footage of Buck,” Bobby said slowly. “From the tsunami.”
-----
It's years later when they all finally find out what Buck went through to keep Christopher safe, and none of them were prepared.

Summary
“Almost four years ago a tsunami washed through Santa Monica. In the years since the tragedy, Los Angeles has focused on remembering the lives that were lost. A memorial was created and every year on the anniversary thousands of people come together to tell the stories of the people who were lost to the wave.
“Over the past year, a team of volunteers sifted through hours of footage to piece together the untold stories of heroism from that day. Using that footage, as well as interviews with survivors, they were able to put together a series of videos recognizing the heroes that stepped up.
“There were many people that saved many lives that day. But one of the most heroic was someone I know personally. This is the story of Evan Buckley, known by most as Buck or Firefighter Buckley.”Or
On a shift without Buck, his team at the 118 turned on the news to see what happened to Buck during the tsunami. After seeing everything that happened, Eddie struggles to convince Buck that what happened was not his fault. Somehow that results in Buck and Eddie getting together and them finally admitting that Buck is Christopher’s other dad.Bookmarked by CryingAt3amInTheRain

Summary
All Bobby has to say, as Buck is hightailing it towards danger, is a low, threatening, “Don’t make me call Eddie.” and Buck will skid to a stop, pause, and eventually turn around and slink back towards the team like a scolded dog with his tail between his legs.

Summary
“Long story short, your kid is too damn smart," Buck began. "Seriously, Eddie, maybe you need to pull him out of that fancy school and send him back to public school. Dumb him down a bit so he’s easier to handle.”
Buck’s words became so tangled in his anxiety that he couldn’t really process what he was saying. “What the hell are you talking about? Is Chris okay? Is he in trouble?”
“He’s fine. Safe and sound, happy as a clam, but I’d say he is definitely in trouble.”
...
In which Eddie's parents hate Buck, and Christopher is too damn clever.
