Fics like The Way It Was

Eddie meets Evan in the summer of 2010 by a lake in El Paso. Both of them still teenagers, lost in life, and a little lonely. It only takes a smile and a sympathetic ear for the two to become inseparable and promise each other forever. Eddie meets Buck in the fall of 2018 at a fire station in Los Angeles. It takes more than a smile and an explanation to forgive broken promises, fix broken hearts, rebuild trust and find a way to be a family again. ------------ Bobby is now in front of him introducing him to some of the other firefighters, but Eddie can hardly hear whatever it is they’re saying because he can’t take his eyes off the man standing like a statue a few feet away, with wide deer-caught-in-the-headlights-eyes, open mouth, and white as a sheet of paper. The man who abandoned him and his son three years ago. The man who is still the love of his goddamn life. Captain Nash is waving him over, and Evan finally starts moving, slow and clumsy, like a zombie. “Eddie, this is Buck. Buck meet Eddie Diaz,” Bobby says. “Buck?” Eddie asks dumbfounded, still not believing what is happening.
