Summary
The water rises faster than Buck can think.
It taunts them as he splashes through it, trying to leverage himself into different spaces around the beam. Together they push and pull at it. Together they wear out every aching muscle in their body and ignore every deeper twinge because if they stop, if they admit defeat—
That’s not an option.
But the water rises anyways.
The water rises and Eddie’s resolve diminishes with every inch closer it gets.
The water rises and Buck stumbles through it, creating tidal waves in his wake. It rises and his resolve rises with it. He’s not leaving Eddie here. He’s getting him out before the water rises above his head.
--
Or, Buck's Eddie's air. In more ways than one.

Summary
Running to the frontlines from a childhood he never had. Taking a bat to the wall with his son in the next room. Having an affair with the spitting image of his dead wife.
Eddie knows he’s never been good at grieving, knows he’s never been good at losing what little he allows for himself in the first place. This is why he also knows his coping mechanisms can’t possibly get any worse.
Buck, as he so often does, makes him reevaluate his assumptions.

Summary
Eddie wants to be capable of that kind of love so bad – of being loved like that. He wants it so much his teeth ache with the force of it.
Slowly, Chris shakes his head. “I guess not,” he finally decides. He picks his pencil back up, thinks for a moment before beginning to fill in his first answer.
Halfway through his sentence, he picks his head up to look at Buck. “You would look back,” Chris declares, like he knows this to be an unmitigated fact. He goes back to writing.
He says it simply, like grass is green, the sky is blue, and Buck would look back.
Eddie watches Buck take the words like a blow. His eyes widen and his chest physically stutters. “Yeah,” Buck says, the word cracking down the middle. Like he can’t help it, Buck turns his head back to Eddie. “I would.”

Summary
“Remember how Ravi said I needed to get laid?” Buck asks at last.
Karen gasps, her hand coming to cover her mouth in shock. “Buck. You didn’t,” she sighs.
“What, you—” Hen looks like she can’t believe her ears, shaking her head. “You slept with your future nanny during the interview?
“That’s highly unprofessional,” Karen adds with a concerned frown.
Okay. Well. Maybe Buck shouldn’t have started there. “No! I— It was before, okay?”
Hen squints her eyes, trying to understand. “So, this man turns up to your house, you say hi, you have sex, and then you start asking about his former employers’ references?”
Or: Buck needs a nanny. Eddie is desperatly looking for a job. They might end up finding more than they asked for.
