    Summary

    “Okay,” Buck mumbles sleepily, smushing his cheek into Eddie’s pillow. “Can I tell you a secret?”

    “Always,” Eddie says, pulling the duvet up to his shoulders. “What is it?” He asks, flicking on the bedside light.

    “I don’t think I’m made to be loved,” Buck mumbles sleepily.

    Eddie’s heart stops beating. “What?”

    Summary

    “Seen any ghosts lately?” Adriana asked with a laugh. “If you’re ever missing it, you’re more than welcome to investigate with me and Sophie.”

    How could he miss it? He lived with it every day. “No,” Eddie said with a shake of his head. “No ghosts lately.”

    --

    Eddie Diaz wants nothing to do with the paranormal. He would be perfectly happy if the spirits of the world stopped showing themselves altogether, actually. But when Adriana and Sophia come to town to film on location for their popular YouTube ghost hunting channel and the ghosts in Eddie's life start becoming much more loud and frequent, he gets roped into figuring out just why things in the Los Angeles spiritual world are changing, and not for the better. The children are crying, and Eddie might be the only one who can hear them.

    A, hopefully, spooky story featuring a reluctant psychic, sibling bonds, quite a bit of paranormal activity, a blossoming romantic relationship, and a mystery that's begging to be solved.

    Summary

    The joke made sense when Buck said it.

    "You can’t die on me, Eds. I’m not ready to be a single parent.”

    He was Christopher’s legal guardian, so he would, technically, be a single parent if Eddie died. The joke doesn't make as much sense when Eddie says it.

    --

    OR: The 118 find out about the will and start a running joke about Eddie being careful otherwise Buck would end up as a single parent. Eddie tries to make the same joke.

    Summary

    Buck’s tears had dried not too long ago, but his hands still shook as he wrung them. Bobby had just left to deal with, well, everything, but Buck remained by the truck, refusing to drag his eyes from Eddie for even a second. Eventually it was just Hen and Chim that remained, and Buck could finally see Eddie clearly. The man’s face was streaked with mud, dirt, and blood, his shoulders were bowed and eyes stared blankly off somewhere ahead of him. Buck bit his lips, but it didn’t really help him from asking again. “Is he okay?”

    Or; Buck finally does something about it.

    Summary

    He wanted to yell that Eddie was alive even though everyone already knew. He wanted to yell “I told you so!” in the faces of everyone whose words ever dared to lean in the direction of doubt.

    He wanted to yell into the rain and thunder and lightning and thank whatever gods existed that they’d brought Eddie back to them— to him.

    But Eddie was gone before he had the chance to say or do anything, the vehicle leaving a trail through the thin layer of mud and disappearing into the night.


    In the aftermath of the call, Buck is uncharacteristically quiet. It just takes a little push to get him where he needs to be and say what he needs to say.
