Summary
Eddie gets the feeling of being on the precipice of something, but he still, still, doesn’t know what. He feels like he can feel the rest of his life in Buck’s gentle fingers on his wrists but knows that, if pressed, he still wouldn’t be able to describe why.
“Why shouldn’t I be with him, Eddie?” Buck asks, and he says it like there’s a right answer, like there’s something that Eddie could say that would crack this whole thing right open.
Eddie has never been great at tests.
“I… I don’t know,” he says finally, honestly.
“I just shouldn’t,” Buck finishes for him, and Eddie can tell that he chose the wrong answer, despite not even knowing what the choices were.
“You just shouldn’t,” he repeats back dumbly.or. an incredibly late post season 7 canon divergent fic.
Chris leaves and Eddie doesn't know what to do with himself. Buck is there, because of course he is. Also Eddie thinks that it might be his fault that Buck and Tommy broke up, but he can't figure out why. Things spiral from there.Series

Summary
“Hey Buck,” he whispers, and Eddie has to choke back a sob. “It’s me. It’s Christopher.”
He’s silent for a few moments, and steady beeping from the monitors fill the room.
“I—um, I came back,” Chris continues. “I know you said that I don’t have to be sorry for leaving, but I still am.
“I was just so mad… and scared and I thought that leaving would make me feel better. But the whole time I was gone, especially before I started talking to Dad, the only thing that made me feel better was talking to you.”
Chris lets out a choked sob, and Eddie instinctively lunges forward to comfort him. A hand on his wrist stops him. He looks over and sees Maddie watching him with a careful look. She shakes her head, and he understands. This is between Buck and Chris, and he needs to do this. Chris knows that he’s here if he needs him.
“I came back, Buck,” Chris says, and Eddie notices, not for the first time, how in Chris’ mouth Buck sounds like Dad. “So now you need to come back, too.”or, in the aftermath of Buck's accident, his family comes together. Chris finds his way home and things get better, and then worse, and then Buck finds his way home too.
