Summary
Buck can hear raised voices. Chris looks stricken.
“She’s realised that I’m talking to you. Oh she’s really angry. Buck? Can you stick around. And put yourself on mute. I’m just gonna.”
Chris flips the camera so Buck can see the room instead of Chris’ face. Chris opens his bedroom door slightly and holds his phone to the gap. Eddie fills the screen. He’s in a black tank top, similar to the one he was wearing the day Buck met him. His hair is damp. His mouth is curled in irritation. He’s looking across the room, probably at Helena. It dawns on Buck that Eddie and Helena don’t know that Chris is watching, that he is watching.

Summary
Eddie's head snapped up. One of the SWAT officers was pointing at a portable monitor set up near the command vehicle—a live feed from the news broadcast still streaming from inside the school. The camera was shaky, the angle awkward, but it showed a hallway.
And there—*there*—was Buck.
Eddie's breath caught in his throat. Buck was in the middle of the corridor, and he was fighting. Not running, not hiding—*fighting*. Hand-to-hand combat with one of the shooters, brutal and desperate. Buck's face was streaked with blood, his shirt torn, but he was moving with the fierce determination of someone protecting something precious.
The camera zoomed in slightly, and Eddie could see it now—the way Buck had positioned himself. The storage closet door visible behind him. The way every move Buck made was calculated to keep the shooter away from that door, to use his body as a barrier.
"The boys," Eddie said, his voice hollow with realisation. "They're in that closet. That's where he hid them. He's—" Eddie's voice broke. "He's protecting them."
Or Buck is taking the boys to Christopher’s science Fayre when a school shooting starts. We see how Buck fights to keep his boys safe and how Eddie rushes to save themBookmarked by GodessOfMischief

Summary
Buck and Eddie are caught up in a building collapse. Eddie has severe concussion, but Buck is absolutely fine. Right? All he has to do is keep Eddie awake till help gets to them.
So with Eddie confused and Buck concealing serious injury, what better time could there be to talk about their feelings for each other…
—————————————————
Eddie shut off the radio. “Buck, you there?”
He heard a throaty laugh. “Where else I’m gonna be, Eddie?”
“Just checking. Bobby said 10 minutes. You sure you’re OK?”
“Worried about you, man. You sound a little out of it. Stay with me, Eds. Keep talking to me”.
“What do you want to talk about, babe?”
Buck was quiet for a beat.
“Well, we could start with why you just called me “babe”. What’s that about, Eddie?”
