    Summary

    "You look exactly the same," Eddie says with tears in his eyes. "How is that even possible?"

    "I don't know," Buck says, his thumb swiping across Eddie's knuckles. "I don't understand it."
    He may be the same, but looking at Eddie, Buck can see the years on him. His hair is a bit different, the creases by the corners of his eyes just a bit deeper. There's a new scar on his right hand that Buck hasn't seen before.

    He'd know these hands blind, but it takes him a moment to notice it still. His fingers brush over it once, and then again before he actually looks down and sees the thin golden band wrapped around Eddie's ring finger. Then he just—stares at it, stupidly, for a second. Before Eddie pulls his hands back, and leaves Buck's hanging empty in the space between them.

    "You're married," he says.

    Summary

    “God, Dad. No.” He huffed in displeasure. “I'm not— It's Buck, Dad.”

    Eddie barely ever heard that name anymore, except for an echo in his own head, and he went still, looking down at his phone and then replacing it by his ear.

    “What— what about him?” Eddie asked, hoping he sounded less thrown off guard than he felt. Hoping he sounded less breathless through the phone than he did to his own ears.

    “I got, um, an invite. To his wedding.”

    OR -

    A story told across five years. Eddie finds out Buck is marrying someone else and reflects on what brought them to this - and what, if anything, he can do about it.

    Summary

    Eddie meets Evan in the summer of 2010 by a lake in El Paso. Both of them still teenagers, lost in life, and a little lonely. It only takes a smile and a sympathetic ear for the two to become inseparable and promise each other forever.

    Eddie meets Buck in the fall of 2018 at a fire station in Los Angeles. It takes more than a smile and an explanation to forgive broken promises, fix broken hearts, rebuild trust and find a way to be a family again.

    ------------

    Bobby is now in front of him introducing him to some of the other firefighters, but Eddie can hardly hear whatever it is they’re saying because he can’t take his eyes off the man standing like a statue a few feet away, with wide deer-caught-in-the-headlights-eyes, open mouth, and white as a sheet of paper. The man who abandoned him and his son three years ago. The man who is still the love of his goddamn life. Captain Nash is waving him over, and Evan finally starts moving, slow and clumsy, like a zombie.

    “Eddie, this is Buck. Buck meet Eddie Diaz,” Bobby says.

    “Buck?” Eddie asks dumbfounded, still not believing what is happening.

    Summary

    Edmundo "Eddie" Diaz had yet to carve out a reputation in the NHL as a Third-Line Center for the Dallas Stars, but this season was different. As he approached the milestone of a possible 20-goal season, and several star players on the roster were sidelined due to various injuries, the coaching staff chose Eddie to wear the iconic Victory Green of the Stars for this year's All-Star Game.

    Evan “Buck” Buckley, a star of the Los Angeles Kings, his image as a golden boy often shone brightly, but it was clouded recently by the lingering controversy stemming from his off-ice antics; clumsy mistakes had thrust him into the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. Now, as he prepared for the upcoming festivities of the All-Star Game, his Captain, Howard “Chimney” Han—who also happened to be his line partner and brother-in-law—had been entrusted to be his chaperone; this came with the privilege of sleeping in the room adjacent to his, the two spaces connected by a door.

    It’s uncertain what the future has in store for Buck and Eddie. Whether it involves personal growth or overcoming obstacles, only time will tell.
