Summary
Buck stood in the center of the destruction, breathing in ragged gasps. Sweat poured down his face, his back. His t-shirt clung to him, soaked through. But he was freezing. Shaking so hard he could barely stand.
The fire under his skin burned hotter. Something was wrong. Something was happening inside him, twisting and churning and demanding-
Need. Safe. Need safe. Not safe. Need-
Buck's vision tunneled. His body moved without permission, autopilot taking over where conscious thought had fled. Up the stairs. Stumbling, nearly falling. His hands grabbed his comforter, sheets still tangled from this morning, a lifetime ago, and yanked them off the bed.
Down the stairs. Each step a monumental effort. His legs barely worked.
The blankets hit the floor in the only clear space left, near the couch. Not enough. Not enough.

Summary
The story you are about to read has been told many times, including by myself. Rewrite of Picking up the Pieces by myself.
The lawsuit is done, Buck is back at work, it'll take time, but everything will return to normal eventually, right? The firehouse crew is hurt, and Buck is struggling. He starts to spiral, going back to his old habits, with no one there to see or catch him. How long can he last on the downward trajectory? Or will someone notice before it's too late?
i.e Buck struggles with his mental health and relationships following a lawsuit against his fire department.
I'm bad at summaries. Just your typical post-lawsuit fic. Updates once a week, either Friday or Saturday.
