    Summary

    Buck’s Jeep gets stolen, which is a pretty shitty way to start the day. The 118 answer a collision and find said Jeep on fire, a deceased driver inside, which is arguably an even worse way to start the day.
    Or, a wildly indulgent "i thought you were dead" idea that wouldn't leave me alone.

    Summary

    As Eddie lays on the hot pavement bleeding out, his eyes locked on Buck’s bloody face, his hand reaching out towards him, what washes over him isn’t his hard-earned stillness nor is it shock.

    It’s clarity, edging slowly into focus from off-stage.

    And when he wakes up in the hospital bed and registers a soft, slim hand in his, he thinks, "no, that’s not it".

    Summary

    Before he was legally allowed to drink, Eddie looked out the passenger side window of his dad’s truck, and in the dusty, barren nothing of the Texan landscape, he saw his entire life written out for him in someone else’s handwriting.

    Eleven years later, walking out of an emergency meeting at Christopher’s school over his son’s recent “behaviour”, Eddie thinks of the view out of his dad’s truck.

    And when Buck asks, “So? What happened?”

    Eddie lies.

    Summary

    Summary

    “Excellent,” Owen says as he picks up the leash and hands it over before heading back into the kitchen. “10:30. Don’t be late, they’re very prompt there. Maybe change your shirt, too, I think you have some smoothie on it.”

    TK looks down at the stain and shrugs. “It’s a vet office. I’m sure they’ve seen a lot worse.”

    Owen nods and grabs his coat and his keys. “Suit yourself and don’t say I didn’t warn you.”

    “What is that supposed to mean,” TK asks but Owen already has one foot out the door.

    “Say hi to Dr. Reyes for me,” he calls over his shoulder before the front door shuts.

    TK sighs and looks down at Buttercup who is resting his head on TK’s thigh. “Well, boy,” TK says as he scratches behind Buttercup’s ears, “I guess it’s you and me today.”
