    Summary

    “I’m not trying to freak you out,” Buck says. “When was the last time you went to the doctor?”

    “Buck,” Eddie says. “I had a checkup a month ago, jackass.”

    “Texas doctors?” Buck says skeptically. “It’s probably nothing. It’s just, I can’t find your pulse.”

    Summary

    Eddie has to stop Chris from sneaking food to the dog during dinner. “I know the meatballs aren’t your favorite,” he says tiredly. “But they have garlic in them, which isn’t good for the dog.”

    Chris stops immediately, to his credit. “Sorry,” he says, and leans down to performatively whisper to the dog, “You’re not missing much anyway.”

    “Hey,” Eddie says, with no heat. “I know they aren’t as good as --” He catches himself.

    Chris wilts in his chair. “Sorry,” he mumbles again, and Eddie hates himself so much that for a second, he can’t breathe.

    “Hen brought treats we can give the dog after dinner,” he tries instead, and Ladder Truck Dog’s ears prick up at the sound of words he recognizes, which at least makes Chris smile, just a little.

    .

    Buck goes missing. The 118 gets a dog. These two facts are unrelated, right?

    Summary

    “Not that I’m in love with you,” Eddie clarifies. It rings in Buck’s ears for a second: I’m in love with you, in Eddie’s voice, thin and distant through the phone but unmistakably him. “But that I was, I don’t know. Competing with him for your attention.”

    “You weren’t,” Buck says automatically. “Were you?”

    There’s a beat of silence on Eddie’s end.

    "I mean," Eddie starts.
