    Summary

    “Buck, can you please let me come to you? I promise I'm not angry. I'm just worried and I don't think it's best for you to be alone right now.”

    Buck stares at the endless sea.

    He wonders how cold it is right now.

    “Kid?” This time Bobby's voice shakes and Buck doesn't want to imagine what it'd sound like if he decided to stay quiet.

    “Okay.”

    or, Buck isn't really doing okay. Bobby knows this, Buck knows he knows this. He still tries to convince him otherwise.

    (They talk in the end. And maybe get one or three hugs out of it).

    Summary

    Without waiting for a reaction or reply, the man bore down on the gas and peeled down the highway, leaving Buck stranded in the middle of nowhere somewhere along Interstate 10.

    And as Buck watched the red brake lights of his Jeep disappear into the distance, clutching his prescription of blood thinners tightly to his chest... there was really only one thing left to do. Tilting his head back until he was staring at the stars, he took a deep breath and screamed into the night:

    “Fuck!”

    And much like every other one of his recent cries for help, it had gone unanswered.

    ---

    Buck gets carjacked, held at gunpoint, and stranded in Arizona the day before his first shift post-lawsuit. And that's only the beginning of his troubles.

    Summary

    Buck’s not sure if the wetness on his face is just the rain or if he’s crying.

    “Buck!”

    Eddie’s voice makes Buck stop in his tracks and his breath catches in his throat. He turns around and sees Eddie running towards him and he’s getting closer and closer and Buck just really cannot face this right now, so he turns back around and starts sprinting.

    “Buck!” Eddie yells again, this time sounding exasperated. Buck speeds up.

    “What the— Buck!”

    Why is Eddie making this so difficult?

    Or: How Buck and Eddie's first kiss leads to someone calling the police on them.
