Buddie ~ Beloved End

One- Eddie Diaz

Dear Shannon,
My life changed drastically since you've died. I have a husband, I'm gay, and I have a second son. His name is Junior. You haven't met Evan Buckley I don't think but that's who my husband is. I miss you like crazy, Shan. I'm glad you're safe in heaven but fuck, Chris needs you. Chris only has Maddie, Carla and Hen as mother figures. Buck tries to help but he just really wants a mom. I need you back too, even if it's just for Chris. I miss you everyday, sweetheart. Rest east, love.
Love,

"Eddie, get up. It's late and we can't waste today." Buck says as he kisses me awake and pulls the blanket off of me. "I'm tired." I moan as he drags me out of bed and to our bathroom. He leaves and I decide to finally get ready. After I finish all my morning duties, I see my sexy husband leaning against our kitchen door frame, talking to our boys. His sleeves rolled up halfway his forearm, his hair slicked back perfectly, his smile brighter than ever and a little whipped cream on his lip which I lick off. "You had something on your lip." I smirk as he grabs my bicep and kisses me. "I love you." He says and packs our bags. Carla is gonna stay with Chris and Junior while me and Buck head over to the firehouse and then hit the gym. On the road, Buck holds my hand and just slides his thumb back and fourth across my palm. His hand is warm and gentle. When we pull into our parking spot, we also see Hen and Chimney. "Hey lovebirds." They smile and walk over to us. "Hey guys." Buck smiles and grabs our stuff. "Y'all ready for today? Hope you packed lunch. It's a big one." Chimney says as we walk inside and see Cap with Ravi. "Hey team, so we're taking off for a whole day. Are Chris and Junior okay?" "Yeah, they're good with Carla." Cap nods and continues to explain what's gonna go down. "So, there's been a huge crash in town so they need at least three fire engines." He says, grabbing his cup of coffee. "Let's hit the road, FireFam."

"I'm exhausted." Buck sighs as he lays against my chest. His body is heavy against mine. Cap told the team to hit the sacks so here we are, getting ready to sleep. Waiting for the sleep to knock us out cold. Buck is asleep because his body weight got heavier against me. I stare at the ceiling and that's when I feel it, the sleepiness is coming for me, gently taking over my opened eyes.
