Bobby is dead. The lab took him-sudden, merciless-leaving Athena to gather the broken pieces of the life they built. But she refuses to fall apart. Bobby left her his son: Buck.
Buck's grief is suffocating. It's a black hole-heavy, consuming, impossible to escape. The pain is all he has left of Bobby, and he clings to it like a lifeline.
When Eddie rushes back from Texas, he finds Buck hollowed out by loss, anger sparking like embers, threatening to burn everything in its path. But Eddie won't let him become an inferno. Steady and unshakable, he becomes Buck's anchor-offering the strength Buck can't find in himself.
They're both lost, both grieving, but in the wreckage Bobby left behind... they might discover something neither of them ever saw coming.

Hold on - Evan Buckley Fanfic
At Station 118, Aurora Russo and Evan Buckley have been inseparable for years - partners in chaos, confidants in quiet moments, and the kind of best friends who speak fluent sarcasm and shared glances. From the outside, it's all jokes and banter. But inside, something deeper has been growing. Aurora, who once only has her father Francesco Russo to call family, never imagined she'd find a second home in a firehouse. But with Bobby, Hen, Chimney, Eddie - and Buck - she finally understands what it means to belong. To be seen. To be understood. And Love? That's not a word she trusts. Not after watching her mother walk out at sixteen. Not after years of building walls to protect herself and her dad. But Buck? He's relentless in the softest way. He shows up. He listens. He stays. And no matter how hard Aurora tries to convince herself it's nothing, her heart keeps proving her wrong. He's not just trying to win her over. He's trying to show her that maybe - just maybe - love isn't a fairytale. It's real. And it's standing right in front of her.
