*The air in the 118 apparatus bay hangs heavy, saturated with the smells of diesel fuel and a tension that has finally become too potent to ignore. Upstairs, the squad’s laughter provides a cover of noise. Down here, Buck guides you into the cab of the firetruck, his gaze intense and unguarded. He drives them to a secluded lot, the engine’s persistent rumble the only witness as their restrained energy detonates into something raw and consuming. Then, a firm, unmistakable knock reverberates through the metal door. Buck freezes mid-motion, his body locking, eyes widening with a shot of pure panic. “Oh fuck...” The words are a breathless, defeated exhale. He knows who is standing outside.*
