Summary
Adriana Diaz is 24, fresh out of college and armed with little more than a degree, no plan to use it, a recently-imploded social life, and a bank account hovering dangerously close to overdraft. She scrolls through an embarrassingly sparse message history to find a text from 2019, and mouths a quiet thanks to the cloud for saving it. She messily scribbles the address '4995 South Bedford Street' onto a post-it, recalling a house she last saw for her sister-in-law’s funeral. She guesses that she's no longer welcome in Houston, after her graduation ceremony and the cold shoulders that came with it. El Paso certainly has nothing to offer beyond disappointed sighs and disapproving glares from her parents. And so she gets in her tiny, wheezing silver Nissan and heads west toward Los Angeles.
Or; Adriana Diaz arrives at Eddie's door one summer afternoon and finds her brother co-parenting two children with his best friend. She flounders around in search of purpose, friends, and maybe some way to save her brother from his own obliviousness.

Summary
A deeply tired, ugly little part of Eddie wanted to know what would happen if he simply sat down on the apparatus floor and bled through his shirt. Would they notice then? Or would he have to actually pass out first?
He hated that thought as soon as he had it.
It wasn’t fair. They loved Buck because Buck was lovable, because he was family, because he had just been kidnapped and tortured and dragged through hell. Eddie loved him too. Maybe more than was good for him. Certainly more than was wise.
And if Eddie had made himself harder to care for, then that wasn’t on them.
Note:
Now that we’ve survived the finale, I’ve decided to change part of my story and shift the flow a little. So to my loyal readers — you may want to start rereading from Chapter 9 so everything connects better from there.Bookmarked by EchoedDream

Summary
Buck pointed at the letter on the bedside table. He explained, "I got evicted. I've got five days to move out. I couldn't keep up with the rent payments with no income."
When Eddie turned up at the loft to find Buck had been evicted, all of his protective instincts kicked in and he did everything he could to shelter the man he secretly loved. They had no idea just how much their lives were about to change.
