    Summary

    Theo picks at the hem of his shirt. “Eli said it was weird.”

    Buck frowns. “What was weird?”

    “That I call you Buck.” The words land harder than they should.

    Buck crouches down slowly. “Okay.”

    Theo stares at the worksheet instead of him. “And Miss Jenny asked if maybe I wanted to call you Dad instead.”

    Buck feels like someone shoved a fist straight through his ribcage. “Oh.”

    Theo’s tiny shoulders hunch. “I didn’t know the right answer.”

    Or

    Theo is trying to figure out what to call Buck.

    Summary

    “He—He had a nightmare,” Buck says. Eddie can tell he’s tugging at his hair. “He was asleep for barely an hour, and now he won’t stop crying. The thunder scares him.”

    Before Eddie can ever answer, Theo’s cries interrupt him. His voice wails out a sad, “EDDIE!”

    Eddie pauses. “Did he just say my name?”

    On the other line, Buck’s breath hitches. Eddie pulls the comforter off himself, already springing into action to find his shoes and car keys.

    Still, Buck doesn’t reply. Theo’s sobs are even more earsplitting through the phone. “I want EDDIE!”

    “He’s—” Buck sucks in a breath. “He’s asking for you.”

    OR: Theo can’t sleep because of the storm. Buck calls Eddie and Christopher for their help.

    Summary

    Everyone was perfectly polite to him. They greeted him at the start of the shift and wished him a good 48 off when he left the station, they didn't give him dirty looks at the table and communicated about work. But Buck couldn't remember the last time someone asked him how his weekend was, involved him in a joke, or casually touched him. He couldn't remember the last time anyone touched him on purpose at all. Everyone kept a very safe distance from Buck. He wondered if they were scared he would sue them if they made a wrong move near him. 

    - - -
    Months after the lawsuit Buck is still on the outs with the 118. He is lonely and touch-starved. After a minor injury at work Buck goes home alone, spiralling about his life and how he misses his family. Then Eddie shows up at his door to talk.
