Summary
Theo jumps happily across the sand, never landing on his fourth hop because Eddie scoops him up mid-air with one deft movement. One strong arm loops around Theo’s torso, holding him securely as Eddie dangles him on his side. He bends his head, sunglasses knocking to the side as he pretends to take a chomp out of Theo’s belly, blowing a big raspberry against his sandy skin.
“You can’t eat me,” Theo shrieks, legs kicking outwards with a vigor that comes only from the confidence of knowing Eddie will never drop him.
“Are you sure?” Eddie asks, grinning crookedly.
“Yes,” Theo says, already taking the moment of reprieve to heave himself up onto Eddie’s shoulders, comfortably settling all of his weight there.

Summary
Eddie’s fingers dig into his own arms. Athena wants to tell him to quit it or he’ll bruise. She wants- to walk away. She wants this to be someone else’s problem, family, life.
“There were boxes in his car, Eddie. Clothes. Books, and-” she had helped him pack, they all had. Made a little party of it, Buck’s new apartment, the Diazes back in their rightful home, everything as it should be as much as it ever can be again. She’d looked in the back seat and saw a box with her own handwriting. Kitchen.
“What are you-”
“He was sleeping in his car?” Maddie’s always been smart.

Summary
Buck exhales, holding a sob back. His hand shakes over his mouth, and Eddie stays silent. “I used to be homeless, you know.” He sniffs, shaking his head. He can feel Eddie’s gaze on him. “But, Eddie—I can’t be that brave again. I don’t wanna stay at another homeless shelter and get kicked out in the afternoons and go to church because I have no where else to stay and at least they have heating.
“I just—I need this. I need to stay. Here. I need to stay here, and you need to say that’s okay, because I’m not strong enough to handle that again. ‘M not.”
or: Eddie comes back from Texas, and Buck starts to feel weird about living in his house. For more than one reason.

Summary
“You can have the lasagna I saved for you yesterday,” Buck says pointedly as he walks down the hallway.
Eddie trails after him, close on his heels. “Baby, Johnson’s wife had an ultrasound. I was only gonna cover him for a couple hours but I got stuck on that call.”
Buck stops in the doorway of the kitchen and turns around to face him. “What if I had an ultrasound?”
“But you didn’t,” Eddie says stupidly.
“That’s what the ‘what if’ is for.”
“If you had an ultrasound and I had a shift, I would've gotten someone to cover for me.”
“Sure you would've.”
or, a pregnant Buck fusses over Eddie after he comes home from work with a sprained wrist, even if he's a bit mad at him
