After being struck by lightning, Evan Buckley survived - but he didn't feel alive. His world was unraveling, his first serious relationship ended, and nothing seemed to make sense anymore... until a chance encounter in a grocery store changed everything. A little girl in meltdown. A foster mom on the verge of giving up. Six homes in eight months. "Nobody wants the broken ones," she whispered. But Buck knew what it was like to feel broken. And he wasn't going to let her go. What began with a gallon of milk turned into a fight for something more - for family, for healing, for love. As Buck takes on the role of a foster father, he finds himself slowly piecing together not just a life for Ava, but a home for himself... one where Eddie Diaz is always nearby, always steady, always watching. Because sometimes love doesn't hit all at once. Sometimes, it's quiet. Sometimes, it's just brave enough to stay. *Based on a Reddit Post*

After a rough day at the station post-lawsuit, Buck decides to fall back into his 1.0 habits. Lost in his thoughts he doesn't notice things taking a dangerous turn until it's too late. When the 118 arrive on scene to discover Buck holding on by a thread. will they be able to save him in time? Or will they lose him forever? *Contains use of Roofies and implied SA. NO REAL SA scenes but just be warned.*

Christopher is gone. Christopher is gone. Eddie keeps telling himself that over and over again till he believes it. Cause there is no way after what he did that his son would want to come back to him. Buck keeps telling him that there is still hope, but Eddie don't believe him. Eddie comes back after work to an empty home. But it's not even a home anymore, without Chris it's just some walls and a roof. Eddie lets his hope drain, he lets himself slip out of his social life, the seriousness of his job, and even his own life. That only reason why he did anything, his job, his love life, his arguments with Shannon, all of that was for Christopher. And now he is gone. ⚠️TW: THIS FIC IS HELLA SAD!!! ( suicidal thoughts, strong language, slurs, homophobia, abuse, sa, childhood trauma and breakups) If you are triggered by any of these please do not read, and I hope you feel better ❤️ But there is a good ending a promise you!

When Eddie Diaz leaves Texas behind, he isn't the only one searching for a new beginning. His sister, Gabriela "Gabi" Cami Diaz, is right there with him - carrying her own bruised heart, her own hopes for something better. A former ER trauma nurse, Gabriela knows chaos. She knows how to keep her hands steady while the world falls apart. But after years of patching up broken bodies and battling burnout in Texas, she's ready for more than just surviving. She's ready to live. And then there's Evan Buckley. At first, it's friendly. It has to be. She's Eddie's sister - a line Buck would never dare cross. But fate has other plans. From the second they meet, there's a spark neither of them can explain away. They never planned to fall for each other. But some hearts don't ask permission. Some hearts just know. Because love, like life, isn't safe. It's messy. It's reckless. It's tangled. And sometimes - it's everything. ────୨ৎ──── © strawbrysqr 9-1-1 , season 2 - ? evan buckley x fem oc

After the loss of Bobby Nash, the 118 begins to pull itself back together, but Evan "Buck" Buckley is quietly falling apart. Afraid to care for anyone else and risk losing them, Buck distances himself from his friends, even Eddie, the man who's always had his back. But when a near-tragedy forces them to face the feelings they've both buried for too long, Buck and Eddie find themselves fighting for more than just survival. Through grief, danger, and second chances, they discover that love, like the family they've built, can withstand anything. And when the smoke clears, it's about more than what's been lost. It's about who's still standing beside you.

Buck wanted to go home. He wanted nothing more than to be back with his family and to go home. Things had been rough this last year though, first his leg got crushed, he had a pulmonary embolism, he was told he couldn't come back to work, and then there was a tsunami. Even with now being allowed back at work after making the mistake of filing a lawsuit, things were still a bit strained. His family and home still felt like they were an arm's length out of reach. Then, things get even worse somehow when he and the rest of the team get sent to see Dr. Wells after a particularly rough call.

Buck and Eddie have been through so much together. But what will it take for them to finally cross the line and become more. An alternate take of the events after the lighting strike as Eddie struggles to keep it together, and Buck struggles to stay alive.

Buck find's a new hobby and Eddie is going insane. Buck was beginning to split his time between fire fighter life and life with the Diaz's. It shouldn't drive him crazy and it shouldn't affect him like this. Buck was just his best friend - his partner. He wasn't his boy friend. And he wasn't far he was always there if he needed him. So if he needed some time away. He would take it like a big boy.

USE TO BE: You should hear it from me. "I'm sorry I can't do that." "This will be the last time we'll be able to see or talk to each other for awhile." "Buck what is going on?" "I thought you should hear it from me, that I should be the one to deliver this." "I'm quitting firefighting, pulling myself off of disability, and leaving LA permanently and do not have any plans of ever coming back." "Come again?" "I told you I wouldn't be stuck behind a desk forgotten about, and I won't. "Even if that means leaving everyone here in LA behind for the job I choose to go back to." Or Buck and Bobby dinner and Buck informs Bobby that he is pulling himself off disability and leaving LA and has no plans of ever coming back. The last name all starting with B wasn't my intention but it just happened and the first chapter is a bit messy as it just a lead up chapter to everything and the bashing is not bad at all is very minimal unlike my other fan fiction
