    Summary

    “You’re very talented at being bad at flirting.”

    “Who says I was flirting? It would be inappropriate to flirt with my son’s teacher.”

    Buck pulls out the chair across from Eddie and drops down into it. “Would it?”

    Eddie shrugs. “Could be. Probably.”

     

    Or, Eddie goes on a date with his kid's teacher. And sure, fine. It's also the guy he's been sexting with for months. By accident.

    Summary

    “I don’t know what to do,” Buck admits, defeated.

    Eddie blinks. “You…don’t know how to floss?”

    Buck glares at him. “Obviously I know how to floss,” he sasses, which is a good point. Eddie has seen him do it hundreds of times. Buck is very diligent with his oral hygiene. “I just don’t know whether I should. It’s not sexy. I wouldn’t usually, if I - - y’know, historically, at this point,” he says, gesturing between them. “I wouldn’t.”

     

    Or, Eddie is a low maintenance sleeper. Buck tries to explode his snoring strips with his mind.

    Summary

    It's ironic because, in the end, it's not a daring rescue attempt that gets him; he's not held hostage at gunpoint; in fact, it's not even the robber currently negotiating terms with the cops.

    There's commotion from the bank, another scream. An ansty trigger-happy bystander standing in the safe zone directly behind them yells, "Alright, that's enough!"

    It happens fast, so fast Buck isn't even sure how he caught it. There's a glint, a clicking sound, and then a gun. Buck thinks it's supposed to be aimed at the bank, but the bystander has a wild, crazed look in their eyes, hands shaking. It fires, rings out clear against the steady drone of LA traffic, and he knows.

    The bullet is in Eddie's direct path.

    -

    Buck gets shot, Eddie fights the universe about it.

    Summary

    There's an insistent tapping on Buck's face, and Buck's eyes drift open back up towards-

    "Eddie," he says, maybe slurring through his name. It doesn't feel right, as if the words are buffering somewhere between his brain and mouth. 

    "Eyes on me," Eddie says, except it splits somewhere down the middle. 

    He has a determined look on his face, the one he wears when he's trying to make sense of a bad call, mouth set and ticked down at the corner. Buck knows that look as surely as he knows how to breathe, the same way his heart knows how to beat. Eddie is gravity, the pull at the center of Buck's world, and even now, when Buck can't find his footing, he can't help but be drawn toward him. 

    Behind Eddie's eyes, Buck sees fear. 

    -

    On the way to a routine call, the 118 engine is involved in a major lateral impact collision. It's confronting for Buck and Eddie, in more ways than one.
