    Summary

    “Just rest now,” Bobby says. His voice retains the authority of a commanding officer — the tone that Eddie has been drilled to obey since he was seventeen. But behind it is something else. Something with more worry, more anguish.

    “Wait,” Eddie says. Memories hide behind frosted glass in his mind. Something is missing, something important. His eyes sweep the room, searching every corner for the one person who isn’t there.

    The question breaks through the frosted glass. “Bobby, where is he?”

    “Eddie…” Bobby says slowly. “We can talk about it later when you’re feeling better.”

    “Bobby,” Eddie says, slow and calm despite the panic racing through his veins. “I need to know.”

    Summary

    In the back of the ambulance, Eddie was in the middle of rechecking vitals for the injured patient when he suddenly heard the sirens stop wailing, immediately jolting up from what he was doing. “What the hell…?”
    When Eddie looked up he saw the glint off the metal of the gun the guard with him was holding, gaze instantly locking onto the threat. His hands over the patient stilled, and his eyes narrowed into a glare. It was made worse when he recognized the eyes he was glaring into, his anger too strong for his rising panic to bother him at all.
    “Hey there, Eddie.” The man grinned, taking his hat off as the disguise was no longer doing him any good. “Miss me?”
    “...Axel.” Eddie greeted, teeth clenched so hard he could feel pain in his jaw.
    Axel just continued to smile, the gesture menacing. “‘Cause I certainly missed you.”

    Summary

    “Before you go, I’d like to offer you a job.”
    Eddie grimaced. He was in no mood for this guy’s weird, cryptic nonsense. “Not interested, thanks.”
    “You’re a natural born fighter, you know. It would be a shame to waste that on another profession—”
    “Seriously, I’m not interested.”
    “—especially firefighter.”
    Eddie paused mid-motion to grab his car door, turning wide, surprised eyes up to the grinning guy in front of him. The unease in his stomach solidified into dread, his tired mind coming to life and starting to swirl with plans to get away from this creep. “Excuse me?”
    “You're squandering your talent, Eddie. Can I call you Eddie?” Every overly casual word and light step towards him had Eddie freaking out a little more. The guy smirked, watching the firefighter step back as he tried to saunter closer. “You’re saving lives with hands meant to take it.”

    Welcome to LA!
    Here you'll find a canon-divergent 9-1-1 AU where Buck and Eddie go missing and struggle with their situation (and their feelings), all while the rest of the 118 rushes to find them.

    Summary

    They were trapped.

    Fire hadn’t broken through yet, but it was coming. Buck could feel the heat pushing in, wrapping around them like a warning. The smoke thickened, clawing at their throats, painting the walls with a haze of panic.

    “So…” Eddie’s voice cut through the haze, rough around the edges but maddeningly calm. “You wanna talk about it now?”

    Buck turned slowly, disbelief etched across every exhausted line of his face, and he hoped his deadpan glare said it all. He didn’t need to ask what Eddie was referring to.

    No, he didn’t want to talk about how he accidentally told his best friend he loved him just hours earlier.

    He’d rather let the fire take him.

    A season 9 two-part opening emergency, in which a group of hijackers takeover Station 118.
