    Summary

    Margaret cooed, “Oh, look at you two. He’s all you, Buck. An exact copy, the smile, the eyes, everything. He’s definitely your son. A mini Buck.”
    Buck smiled again and gave Theo a twirl, making him giggle.
    Then Maddie said, “Except the hair. Chris’s hair is more like Buck’s than Theo’s.”
    Buck smiled and started, “Yeah, Chris…”
    Chris cut him off. “I don’t look like Buck. I’m not his son.”

    OR

    Christopher hears it over and over again: "mini Buck, his son, just like him", until he starts to wonder where that leaves him.
    Eddie sees it happening but doesn’t know how to stop it. But they find their way to each other.

    Summary

    “I think I related to him,” Eddie admits quietly.
    “I mean, I grew up with the culture and obviously Pepa and Abuela are here now, but…” He fidgets with the blanket in his lap. “I haven’t really felt connected to it since I was eighteen. And when I do, it’s mostly family stuff. Obligation.”

    +++

    "Don't you think it'd be weird to call Chimney mi amor?"

    Buck freezes for exactly half a second.

    "...Okay, good point."

    Eddie folds his arms triumphantly.

    "I have an additional part to the plan," Buck says, clearly refusing to abandon this idea.

    "Let's hear it."

    Buck points directly at himself.

    "Call me mi amor."

    Despite not eating anything, Eddie nearly chokes.

    "You want me... to call you my love?"

    Buck immediately scratches the back of his neck, suddenly looking much less confident than he had three seconds ago.

    "Well..." he mumbles. "When you say it like that..."

    Or, Eddie tries to re-find his culture and ends up finding a little more than he bargained for.

    Cue: Domestic Dads buddie and appreciation of Mexican culture :)

    Summary

    Out of the corner of his eye, Buck caught Eddie stiffen, knuckles pale against his beer bottle.

    "You okay?" Buck whispered in his direction.

    Eddie blinked, as if he'd been somewhere else for a second.

    "Hm?" His smile returned just as quickly. "Yeah."

    Another firework detonated, louder than the last.

    Eddie's shoulders jerked almost imperceptibly.

    It was so brief Buck almost convinced himself he'd imagined it.

    Summary

    Eddie finds joy. Letting himself have it is a bit more complicated.

    (Or: Eddie always thought he didn't believe in signs, but the evidence is getting pretty tough to ignore.)

    “Edmundo,” his father intones, voice deeper and rougher than Eddie remembers. “You need to come home now.”

    “What happened,” Eddie says — doesn’t ask, because whatever it is, he knows he’ll spend the rest of his life hating himself for. Whatever it is, it’s Chris, and Eddie wasn’t there for it. Everything else is schematics.

    “H-He…dios, Eddie.” Eddie’s only heard his father cry once before. “He tried to kill himself.”

    Summary

    After Buck announces his lawsuit against Bobby and the firehouse, Eddie turns to fighting in underground rings to deal with his anger. After a particularly brutal match Eddie finds himself injured and doesn't have Buck to turn to, leaving him alone and confused without a way home and a shift the next day. At the same time, Buck rethinks his decision to sue and goes to Eddie's house to apologize. Both spend the night alone.

    OR:

    What could have happened if Eddie was injured in the fight club in season 3.
