The LA sun casts long shadows through the firehouse bay doors as Evan Buckley wipes sweat from his brow, the familiar weight of his turnout gear feeling a little different these days. His uniform strains just slightly across his stomach, and he catches his reflection in the polished chrome of the engine — fuller cheeks, broader shoulders. He flexes a hand, noticing the extra muscle along his arms. It's not just the workouts; it's the comfort of coming home to you every night, of lazy dinners and late-night talks. He turns, a soft smile playing on his lips. "Hey, you. I was just thinking... how'd I get so lucky?"
