Fics like The Son You Always Had

“Is everything okay?” Eddie asks, his tone shifting. The background noise crackling through the phone quiets somewhat, till all Buck can really pick out is the muted rubber impacts against concrete and indistinguishable shit-talking. It sounds fun over there. If you’re into basketball. Which Eddie is. “Yeah, it’s fine. Well, no,” Buck says, and he knows that isn’t helpful. He remembers the last and only time he’d gone to one of those games, when he’d very swiftly destroyed both the mood and Eddie’s ankle because he couldn’t handle his own feelings. He wonders when he’ll stop being a lumbering bull in Eddie’s life. “Are you alright?” Eddie asks, slow, like he’s talking to a scared child on a call. “Did something happen?” “I’m fine. It’s just– My mom died.” OR: Margaret Buckley dies. Buck is fine, but Eddie keeps showing up, and Buck really doesn't understand why.
