Summary
“Unfortunately you are the sixth victim in a string of serial abductions and assaults spanning the Midwest."
Evan Buckley's life is a sequence of hardships and challenges, but every time he manages to fight through and overcome. Being a victim (and survivor) of an assault long before joining the 118 is a part of his past he always intended to keep buried.
It's not as if he remembers it anyways.

Summary
Deft fingers undo two more buttons, pulling his shirt into an exaggerated “v” and confirming the worst. Colorful splotches dot his chest, and if Buck’s memory serves, they won’t be contained to just the upper third of his torso.
“Shit,” he whispers, a prickle of shame creeping up the back of his neck.
Eddie turns his back on the scene with a huff, snatching the cookie tub from Chimney’s suddenly-slack grip.
“Oh my god,” Chim gasps. “He’s back.”
“Who’s back?” Eddie asks, glancing between Hen and Chimney.
“Buck 1.0,” Hen says, a smile in her voice.
“Oh come on, it was one hookup.” It’s a lie, he knows, but telling his friends about Stacy surely isn’t going to help his case right now. “I’m not the kind of guy who acts like an ass on calls and steals fire trucks anymore.”

Summary
Missing Eddie has become a physical ache. Losing him smashed Buck's heart into pieces, and he carries the shrapnel with him wherever he goes.
He takes a deep breath, and then he opens up his messages. There's Eddie, right there, and the 118 group chat, which Eddie is still a part of, even though he shouldn't be. He's in Texas now.
Buck closes the whole app and opens Tinder instead. He has a match before the Jeep's engine has warmed up. He decides to skip breakfast, ignores the hole in his stomach to fill the hole in his chest with some no-strings-attached physical contact.
Half an hour later, he's kneeling on the floor of a stranger's kitchen, hands in his hair and hot thighs clasped around his cheeks. It works. He stops feeling empty. For a while.Or:
Eddie moves to El Paso. Buck spirals out of control quite spectacularly.

Summary

Summary
Evan isn't sure what his life will look like once he finally gets out of Hershey. He's daydreamed about a life; a job he loves, people he trusts, a family that might actually want him around.
In all of his fantasies, he'd never pictured this: pregnant at 18, halfway through his first year of college.
OR, the one where Buck leaves Hershey and becomes a single parent, landing in LA when his daughter is five. There, he joins the Fire Academy and meets an instructor that might just be the home he's been searching for: Eddie Diaz.

Summary
Once everyone heads off to the bunks after dinner, Buck wastes no time in dragging one of the stools from the kitchen over to the Tetris cabinet, where he, too, settles in as if he were getting into bed.
The cabinet is new but the interface is a replica of the original, and when he boots the monitor up, Buck is faced with pixelated fireworks and a cartoon version of Saint Basil’s Cathedral. He nudges the red joystick and the main menu pops up. The left side of the screen reads YOUR GOAL IS TO FILL LINES!
Buck cracks his knuckles.
or, Buck plays Tetris. And a lot of it.

“Have you ever been told you’re a carrier?”
Buck blinks, the words not processing right in his brain.
He’s not. He knows he’s not.
“No.” He says eventually. “No, i- i can’t be. I’m not.”
“Buck-”

Summary
“How did you get home from the hospital?”
“Took an uber.”
“Does Maddie know?” Silence. “Does anyone?” More silence. More of Buck refusing to meet his gaze, staring at the door like he thought he could entice Eddie to leave by the power of suggestion. Well, good fucking luck, Eddie thought. Wild horses, and all that. “Why didn’t you call anyone?” he demanded. “Why didn’t you call me?”
“I did!” Buck snarled. The momentum of his indignation carried him into a sitting position, and Eddie could see him flinch with the pain of it. His unnaturally stoic front was gone, and something raw and wrenching took its place; it occurred to Eddie that he’d never heard Buck raise his voice before. “I did call you, Eddie! As I was bleeding out on my kitchen floor. You. Didn’t. Answer.”

The squatter in Buck's attic has a knife. Buck has a bit of a breakdown. Eddie has a plan to make everything right.

Summary
“I’ll do whatever you want, just, please.” Buck sobs out the last word, eyes burning with unshed tears.
“A vow.” The man leans uncomfortably close to Buck. The knife brushes against his neck, lightly scratching across the top layer of Buck’s skin. The man’s cold blue eyes hold Buck’s full attention. “That’s what I require. Sell me your allegiance.”
Buck stares back at the killer, unable to fully process what is being asked of him. He sees a flash of anger dance in the stranger’s gaze. He's impatient. Unpredictable. Fear pours into Buck's chest as he realizes he might not get a second chance at this. He has to make this count. “I vow to give you complete control over the remainder of my life. My body is yours to destroy—so long as you let my sister live and return safely to her family.”

Or, After Eddie leaves for Texas, Buck goes to seek comfort from his sister and walks in on her kidnapping. In order to save Maddie's life, Buck offers up his instead. Unintentionally agreeing to something worse than death.

Summary
Buck tries to commit the frame to memory, wills himself not to forget the important details—Eddie on his knees in front of him, his nails seeking purchase along Buck's thighs as he drinks him down, his drawn-out gasps when Buck returns the favor.
After, when Buck reaches out for quiet confirmation in the dark, asks him, "Good?"
Eddie tells him, earnest and hard-won, "Everything is good with you," and Buck can bask in the illusion of a world where he almost believes it.
Buck is trying to leave the past where it belongs. Then he wins an all-expenses-paid trip to Italy, convinces Eddie to join him, and falls headfirst into (not so) casual sex with his best friend.
