Summary
"A now-familiar rage boils up in Eddie's chest, and he shakes out his limbs, baring his teeth in relief when they call his name again.
He'd been slated for three fights tonight, and this is his last one. Sweat is rolling down his back, and his body is probably going to ache in the morning, but he can't feel any of it yet because of the adrenaline.
Not only as he already fought twice tonight, he'd also won both matches, and he doesn't feel like stopping. His limbs are still loose, there's energy still sparking through his veins, and the fury that he's been trying to expel all night is still firmly settled behind his breastbone, tendrils winding up his throat as if to choke him.
He almost feels bad for whoever he's about to climb into the ring with."
Or, one night sets Eddie on a whole new path.

Summary
Buck had no idea what he was going to do next. He had Maddie’s jeep, but not Maddie. He wanted an escape but he wanted his sister to escape with him. He just …he sat on the hood of the car, parked in a nearly empty parking lot, out of gas and no money to get more.
“Everything ok?” Buck looked up and saw a guy in a uniform. US Navy.
“Uh, ye- yeah. All- all good.” Buck hated that he stuttered when he was nervous.
“Wanna try again for a more believable answer?” The guy gave him a small smile. “I'm Petty Officer First Class Ryan. I work at the recruitment station over there. Ever thought about enlisting?”
“I just … ran out of gas.” Buck admitted, blushing when his stomach rumbled. It'd only been a day since he ate last. Two, but he was trying to trick his body into thinking it had only been one.
“How about I buy you lunch, you let me tell you a bit about the Navy, and if you're not interested, I help you get a few bucks for gas?”
“I don't need a handout.” Buck ducked his head.

Summary
Bobby opens the door and his jaw hits the floor as he comes face to face with Evan. Evan, his son, who was supposed to be safely tucked away in Hershey with his lovely sister and parents, the Buckleys. Evan, who looks like he hasn’t slept in days and is bearing the weight of the world on his small shoulders.
“So you know who I am,” the kid starts, his words drenched in bitterness. It breaks Bobby’s heart. This is his son. His son, who is glaring at him like he is the scum of the earth.
“Evan –” he starts, but the kid cuts him off.
“Look, I know you gave me up and didn’t want me, but you are my father. I hope you are not too much of an asshole to turn me away now. Please, may I come in? I will be out of your hair soon, I promise.”
Something in Bobby breaks at those words.
