Buddie

Chapter 1

I walked through the firehouse doors and he was there. That feeling was there again. My heart is pounding, I feel hot and sweaty. Why do I feel like this every time he is around?

"Hey Buck, Chris would like you to come over and play video games with him tonight, would you?"

"Of course Eddie, love to." Shit why did I say yes, I can't go round his again tonight until I figure out why I feel like this when he is around. I walk a couple steps behind him taking him all in, we reach the top of the stairs and see everyone sat around the table, with plates stacked with pancakes and toast and other breakfast foods that cap had very clearly cooked himself, I could tell by all the dishes in the sink and the dishwasher being on.

Just as I was about to grab a plate the bell rings, we all immediately drop what we're doing and head down the stairs to gear up and get into the engine. We arrive on the scene of a four car pileup, looks like the first guy spun out of control.
After assessing the situation cap starts telling us what we need to do.

"Hen and chimney, I want you to check the drivers and any passengers who may have been in the cars also, buck get the jaws, open the doors up so those two can get them out of the cars and out of the way. Eddie help out with checking the people out." We all rush off to help these people. I run to the engine and get the jaws, I run to the first car where hen is.

"What's the situation hen?" I ask.

"Nothing bad maybe a concussion at most, no broken bones, no internal or external injuries." She says checking the man's blood pressure.

I shove the jaws between the car and the door and pry the door open, hen pulls the man out of the car getting him onto a stretcher and put in the back of the ambulance.

We finally finished and were back in the engine on the way to the firehouse when I catch Eddie staring at me from the corner of my eye. Wait, was he actually staring at me or am I imagining it. Or maybe I have something on my face. I continue to overthink all the way back to the fire house.

~TIME SKIP~

It's finally the end of my shift, I head down to the changing room to gather my bag and stuff from my locker. I begin getting changed out of my work clothes, I take my shirt off just as I hear someone cough behind me, I turn around to find Eddie stood there red in the face.

"*cough* um we still on for tonight Evan?" EVAN!!! Did he seriously call me Evan?

"Yes we are Edmundo" I say back with a smirk.

I walk out of the changing room and leave the firehouse and head for my car.
