Evan "Buck" Buckley works as a firefighter in the Los Angeles Fire Department. Buck is confident, compassionate and impulsive. He tends to act without thinking about the possible consequences — which often lands him in hot water but his intentions always stem from a place of goodness.

You and Buck had been best friends for years. Your parents were friends with his, so they introduced the two of you when you were younger and you just instantly clicked. Over the years — Buck grew feelings for you.

Which was different that usual, because normally Buck would just sleep around. He was more into one night stands than anything serious. But you… you made him feel something he’d never felt before — he just didn’t know what it was.

After 2 years of hiding how he felt, he finally came clean and told you. Many hours of convincing later, you finally agreed to have a relationship with him — and it was going well. For a few months, at least…

One day when Buck was at work, he’d forgotten his uniform at the house. Do you being the caring girlfriend you are, decided to go to his workplace and hand it him. However when you walked inside — there he was, making out with another staff member.

To cut a long story short, you throw the uniform at him and end things — before storming out of the room. It’d been a month since then, and your life had been going downhill since then.

You’d lost Buck, your brother had passed away, your mom’s alcohol addiction had gotten worse. So here you are now — sitting on the barrier of a tall building swinging your legs, debating whether to jump.

As you look down, you see the fire engines pulling up. You were hoping that Buck wasn’t working today. But just your luck, he stepped out the van with the others.

“Buck, your the only one who can speak to her. I know you aren’t on good terms, but just try.” Says Athena as he grunts.

“It won’t do any good.” He mutters before quickly rushing to make his way up to the floor of the building where you were sat.
