"I hope you know, you do matter to me." "I know."

Two weeks after his parents were arrested by Carlos and Mr. Reyes, Buck receives a letter from his mother. He makes the decision to take it to his therapist. Little did he know of the changes that would soon come

After coming back to the 118 three months ago, Buck has been pushed around to the point of breaking. A phone call later finds Buck packing and moving to Austin to work with the 126. Maybe also learning something about himself along the way. This is my original fanfic that I posted first on AO3

Evan "Buck" Buckley moves to LA, determined to make a new life for himself. He takes a job as a firefighter and keeps a low profile, but he is soon won over by the warmth and caring of the close-knit fire family, especially that of widower Eddie Diaz. With the help of Eddie and his kid, Buck learns to love and trust again -- but when a mysterious stranger arrives and starts asking questions, Buck's dark past threatens to reclaim him. Note: While this is based off Nicolas Sparks' Safe Haven, I just want to make clear that this is based off the movie, not the book.

Summary: Buck couldn't help the choked sob that left his lips. This dance meant everything to Buck and to see Eddie, who he was supposed to dance with, dancing with someone else but him? It shattered his heart into millions of pieces

Hate is a strong word. But Eddie thinks what he feels for Buck's parents comes pretty damn close.

They are both intently staring at the lights changing from one number to the next. Then the elevator comes to a halt and Buck assumes he'll soon be alone. But instead of pushing away from the wall, the other man is just furrowing his brows. Then Buck realizes the door isn't opening. His eyes flit back to the current story: Four. That's not where any of them wanted to get off. Buck groans. "I think we're stuck." Buck laughs a humorless laugh. "Shit." <hr> Buck gets stuck in his apartment building's broken elevator with his good-looking neighbor from the sixth floor.

Edmundo "Eddie" Diaz and Evan "Buck" Buckley are firefighters of Station 118 of the LAFD. The circumstances around the beginning of their connection were rough, but even some of the best love stories are born out of tragedy. Their friendship is unique; it's so unique that neither have realized how much more than a friendship it actually is. What happens when one or both of them realizes? What would they say to each other when they realize the truth? How will their families respond? How will Christopher respond if they choose to see what acting on their feelings means? So many questions can be asked, but only one question matters: Do they truly want to know the answers to any of these questions? ------- The story picks up after the tsunami of season 3. My storyline will have many of the same major plot points as the show, but there will be some differences. *I do not own the characters. They belong to the FOX tv show, 9-1-1.*

Evan Buckley (Buck) dies, or so they thought. Buck was in an accident at work. The 118 lost signal. They searched, but they never found him either dead or alive. The 118 didn't want to give up, but they had no choice. The 118 had a funeral even, though there was no body. By some miracle buck was alive, and in the hospital, he survived. will buck return to the 118 and surprise them with him being alive, or will he restart this new chapter of his life. ~Rankings~ #2 118 #1 buckxeddie
