He gestured to the envelope in a 'go on' fashion, and that seemed to break Eddie out of whatever stupor he was in. With one last confused and concerned look at him Eddie reached down and scooped up the envelope taking out the papers and reading through their contents. "I don't understand." Eddie said after seemingly having read through the papers at least three times. "C'mon Eds," Buck huffed out a mirthless chuckle, "I know that you know what a deployment issue looks like."

The members of the 118 are more than just team members, they're a family. Family can trust each other. They know about their Captain's past, Hen's life, Chimney's start, and Eddie's mistakes. They never really noticed how quiet their most bubbly team member is about his life until it all comes knocking at their door. And now they're left wondering, who is Evan Buckley.

Eddie is new to the LA area, and the 126 fire department. He meets the team, and is curious about a certain team member Evan Buckley. A man who seems perfect, but is no doubt living a double life. Or Buck is hiding a secret from the newest team member out of fear of his past. When he and Eddie start to get closer, he realized he'll have to tell the truth, he has a son.

C'est parfois dur de fuir quand on est lié à quelque chose. Pourtant, c'est ce que Buck a décidé de faire en venant rendre visite à sa sœur devenue mère à l'autre bout du continent. Quand rencontrer de nouvelles personnes implique de les mettre en danger, il est plutôt récalcitrant à l'idée de créer des nouvelles amitiés avec les proches de Maddie. Encore plus quand il commence particulièrement à s'intéresser à l'un d'eux et songe sérieusement à s'installer à Los Angeles.

Sequel to: Evan "Buck" Buckley-Nash Now that Buck is grown and 25, he's been with the 118 for 6 years and is thriving to be the very best he can be. Will he settle down? Will he find the one? He's anxious to start living his life on his own terms.
