Summary
Back from Texas with a new understanding of his feelings, Eddie is desperate to talk to Buck. But every opportunity is lost as Buck is always asleep.
What starts as frustration for Eddie turns to concern as he realises the amount Buck is sleeping isn’t normal. Eddie spirals, panicking about whether Buck has an underlying health issue he hasn’t shared.
But maybe there is something else going on?
---------
Eddie sighed.
It should have been easy to find time to talk to Buck. He inhabited every moment of Eddie’s life. He was still living with Eddie and Christopher. He made breakfast for all of them every morning. He helped Eddie wrangle an increasingly teenage Chris, with all the attitude that brought. They shared meals and they divided up chores. They lived together. But not together. In a house that had been Eddie’s, became Buck’s, and was now Eddie’s again.
Never theirs.
At work, they had quickly settled into the same shift pattern, with Eddie rejoining the 118 A-shift. They would car share to work, spend the day working side-by-side, then ride home together when their shift ended.
So how had there still not been the chance to talk?

Summary
In which, Buck get's a phone call from Bobby inviting him to the a Grant-Nash family night.
"Hey, Cap!" Buck said as he answered his phone, smiling.
"Are you busy?"
No hello, no preamble, just that.
Buck blinked, smile faltering into confusion. "Uh—" He glanced around his apartment like the answer might be hiding between the cooling racks and mixing bowls. "No? Not really. Why?"
"Great. Grant-Nash family night is happening in roughly twenty minutes. It's make your own pizza night, so you better get here soon before Harry eats all the toppings."
There was a beat. A very small, very critical beat where Buck's brain tried—and failed—to catch up.
"Wait, what—"
The line went dead.

Summary
In the morning, he crept downstairs still half asleep, rubbing his hands over his blinking eyes as he tried to wake up. He made a beeline straight toward the coffee machine, knowing he was going to need at least two cups before anyone from his family showed up.
Buck loved them so much, but when the entire 118 family got together, it could be a lot to handle.
It wasn’t until he was standing in front of the coffee maker watching it brew that he realized the lights in the kitchen were on. He remembered turning off all of the lights before he went to bed. Buck looked around the room in confusion, his heart dropping when he spotted a cabinet and a drawer fully open across the room. Those were absolutely closed when he went to bed.
Yup. That confirmed it. His house was definitely haunted.
OR: Based on the promo for 9x05. Buck thinks his new house is haunted. Something a little spookier is happening.
