Summary
When the 118 jokingly launches a Cowboy Competition to learn who is more Cowboy. Buck and Eddie find themselves in the middle of a playful showdown—Montana ranch hand versus Texas native.
Buck wasn’t oblivious to it: the way Eddie’s gaze lingered just a little too long, the way his jaw flexed like he was trying not to react. It made something flutter in Buck’s chest. Something warm. Hopeful. Maybe even dangerous.
And then the music shifted into something fast and easy, and Buck reached out his hand.
“Come on. I promise not to lasso anyone.”
Eddie huffed a laugh, but he took the offered hand anyway.
Buck led him toward the edge of the dance floor, feet already tapping in time with the beat, and as they fell into the simple steps, Buck let himself watch—really watch—Eddie find it.
That rhythm. That spark. That joy.
Eddie’s smile started small, hesitant. But with each beat, each movement, it grew. Buck watched Eddie dance with joy. Buck couldn’t look away.
God, he was so gone.
And when Eddie turned mid-step, grinning, hat-lighted Buck standing just inches away, all Buck could think was:

Summary
“What happened to a united front?” She asked, getting emotional. It wasn’t her fault she was emotional right now, she had an insane amount of hormones running through her body.
“You tell me.” Buck finally turned and looked at her. “You never told me you were getting so close to them again. I had no idea you were talking to them frequently enough to be able to invite them out, let alone that they would actually agree. You told me when you first got here not to tell them you were here, and you have never asked anything about our relationship since then.”
“What’s there to tell?” Maddie huffed, getting to her feet and walking over to him. “Seriously, you accepted me so easily, why would they be any different?”
“What’s our motto?” Buck asked quietly.
“What’s that-”
“They aren’t bad people, just bad parents.” Buck said, cutting her off. “Or did you only ever say that for my benefit?”
“Buck.” Maddie said his name sadly. “Please.”
“No.” Buck said, shaking his head again. “No, and if that’s all you wanted to talk to me about you should go.”

Summary
“Look, it’s not that I’m not … grateful to see you again, Mads,” Buck said hesitantly, after his sister was dressed and they were sitting down on the sofa together, “but, uh, what exactly brought you here? Not LA, um, I mean why did you come to me specifically?”
“Do I need an excuse to see my baby brother now?” She asked a little defensively.
“Considering we haven’t seen each other in person in seven years, or talked on the phone in at least three, you need something better than you don’t care where your shitty husband is.” Buck stated.
“If it’s that big of a deal, I’ll go.” Maddie huffed.
OR
When Maddie arrives in LA, into Buck's apartment, they have a very different conversation about divorce, protective orders, and new relationships.

Summary
In hind sight, Buck really should have agreed with Bobby and told people that he had more issues after the bombing than just his leg. Bobby had seen the medical records, but when he’d looked ready to hold Buck back for a second time, to keep him as the man behind, Buck told him he’d lose his job for refusing work based on his new disability. It would be worse discrimination than just holding him back because of hurt feelings.
The point was, he should have told someone he was disabled. That he required hearing aids to be able to hear.
