Summary
"I'm Buck."
"Buck," Eddie tests the name out. Buck. He likes that name. It sounds good, warm and safe and comfortingly familiar on his tongue. "You're my husband."
Buck's eyes widen, obviously surprised that Eddie remembered that. See, look? He's recovering remarkably quickly. He'll have his full memory back in no time.
"Your husband," Buck repeats and Chris, for some reason, starts giggling.
"My husband," Eddie agrees happily.
-
Eddie suffers temporary amnesia after an injury at work and makes some assumptions about the nature of his and Buck's relationship.

Summary
Eddie’s eyes were blank, glossed over. His breathing was slow, calculated as if he were trying to minimize the movements of his chest, ensuring that his body barely moved with every rise and fall.
“Eddie,” Buck’s voice broke, “Please don’t tell me that’s what I think it is.”
“I wish I could,” Eddie whispered, his face tight. “I just stepped on a landmine.”

Summary
Buck has been a firefighter long enough to know what it means when someone is throwing up flower petals. It means heartache and physical pain. It means almost certain death. He knows, of course. He just never thought it would happen to him.

Summary
Eddie pauses. “What’s wrong? Was the bakery closed already?”
Buck’s left thigh seizes. He laughs to disguise the whimper in his voice. He aches. He wants. He wants.
“No, nothing, man,” Buck huffs. The extra air makes his voice sound stronger than it is. He inhales deeply. “Nothing’s wrong. I have the bread, I’m on my way back, just…”
“Traffic?”
Sort of, Buck almost says.
-OR-
Buck is in a car accident. He knows he's going to die. He calls Eddie, just to hear his voice again.
