    Summary

    Buck’s hair is gray at the temples, buzzed neatly on the sides and a bit longer and curlier on top than Chris remembers him wearing it, and there’s a new scar through one of his eyebrows. He looks good, like he’s living a happy life, and the only possible reason Chris can imagine for Buck to be here at Helena Diaz’s funeral in El Paso is that Chris’s father brought him.

    “Why would you come?” Chris snaps at him.

    Buck blinks. “Why wouldn’t I come?”

    “She didn’t mean anything to you.”

    “I’m not here for her,” Buck scoffs. “She is dead. I’m here for him.”

    or

    Chris is forced to grapple with the choice he made eleven years ago when his father comes back for Helena’s funeral.

    Summary

    “What are you talking about?” Maddie’s voice asks, slightly tinny.

    The door struggles to open behind him and he drops the phone.

    “Mads,” he says, panic slinking into every syllable. “I—I think—“

    “Buck, come out,” Bobby says. “Please, baby.”

    Buck’s stomach turns and he shakes his head. No, absolutely not. That—crime against humanity is what that is. As if lunch hadn’t been traumatizing enough.

    “Was that Bobby?” Maddie’s voice is distant but rightfully alarmed.

    “Something’s wrong with them,” Buck yells down at the phone. “I—I know I said I can get anyone to fall in love with me but this is not what I meant!”


    or, the 118 gets dosed with a love potion.

    Summary

    “Sorry, uh, I’m not doing this right,” she says.

    “Doing what right?” Eddie asks.

    “Actually, sorry, one sec, this is bugging me,” she says before flicking her wrist in the direction of the star. It shifts where it sits atop the tree, untouched, straightening ever so slightly.

    “Much better,” she says, turning back to Eddie with a smile.

    “H-how did you do that?” Eddie asks.

    “I’m your ghost of Christmas past,” she explains, as if it’s the simplest thing on earth. In Eddie’s—albeit, sleep deprived—mind, it certainly is not.

    “My…huh?”

    OR

    On the night before Christmas, Eddie is visited by three (or four) ghosts who show him what it means to let go, to be loved, and to love someone back.

    Summary

    And, here, looking at his best friend, he can see that something’s broken inside him, too. And, maybe it’s the therapy he’s had over the years, his sessions with Frank, but Eddie wants to talk to Buck. He wants Buck to talk to him. Buck, who just looks so fucking sad, still in his dress blues, one hand drinking the beer, the other coming up to loosen his tie.

    This morning, Eddie had noticed Buck tying, untying, retying the tie with breaths of frustration, fingers shaking. “Eddie,” he’d said lowly from across the room, and Eddie wouldn’t have even heard him if he hadn’t been watching. “I, uh, can never – I can never get this right.”

    *

    In the aftermath of Bobby’s death, Buck and Eddie need to learn to embrace change, settle into a new normal - a life without Bobby, and life navigating feelings for each other. A vision of what season 9 could be.

    Summary

    Eddie's got an itch that needs to be scratched, a fantasy that's been tormenting him for weeks now.

    He wants Buck to top him.

    The only problem is saying the words, asking for what he wants, when Eddie has been raised his entire life to never voice his sexual desires, especially not his gay sexual desires.

    Fortunately, a weekend away in Palm Springs might be the perfect opportunity to try.
