    Summary

    Chris remembers, suddenly, the days after his mom died, the feeling of dread that lingered under his skin. The way it slowly bubbled up, over the years, until he couldn’t be this kid anymore, this kid who could look at the world and not see danger in every corner. He wishes that Theo will never be like that. He knows, living with a first responder, that the odds of him turning out any other way are against him.

    “Hey, Theo,” he says suddenly, the words spilling from his lips without permission. “Do you think Buck is your dad?”

    Christopher isn't sure how he feels about Theo, or what he means for him and Buck. When they're caught up in a disaster alone, he has plenty of time to figure it out.

    —and into his jeep.

    Summary

    Buck isn't supposed to be here. He knows this. That's what happens when you die — you're not meant to stick around for what comes after.

    But Eddie keeps looking at him, and Buck doesn't want to let go.

    Summary

    “Hello, Quinn,” Rachel says, pulling her hand back closer to her body and smiling very gently. Quinn tries to force a smile on her face, but it doesn’t come easily.

    “Hi, Rachel,” she says. “How are you?”

    “I’m doing rather well,” Rachel says. “I won a Tony Award recently.”

    “I sent you flowers,” Quinn says, laughing. “I won a Golden Globe.”

    Quinn Fabray has a pretty nice life. And then Rachel Berry shows up, again.

    Summary

    “You were drunk. I know it didn’t mean anything. Everything’s alright.”

    Buck visibly winces. “That’s not — Eddie.”

    There’s a suspended moment where Buck looks torn, standing on the edge of something, eyes fixed on the horizon to avoid looking at the drop, the precipitous canyon below. But then Buck, who can’t lie, who would tear his own chest open to a complete stranger on the street because the truth of him spills so loudly out of every jagged edge, sighs out:

    “It meant something.”

    There’s a ringing sound somewhere in the distance, getting closer. “What are you…” Eddie trails off.

    “I wasn’t — well, I was drunk. But that wasn’t what. Wasn’t why. Not entirely, or — god.” Buck shudders in a breath, steeling himself. “I have feelings for you.” He closes his eyes. “I’m so sorry.”

    ~

    Buck confesses his feelings. Eddie’s straight. If he spends all his time thinking about Buck and looking at Buck and wanting to be around Buck, well, that’s just being a good friend, isn’t it? He’s being so normal about this, actually.
