He's not actually late. There weren't any more calls before the end of shift, which Eddie is taking as proof the "jinx" isn't actually real. Not that he's going to tell Buck that right now. He knows better than to argue with a pregnant woman, even jokingly.

Besides, it would ruin the softness of the moment he steps into when he finds her in bed. The sunlight streaming through the window paints her in warm yellows, makes her hair seem like it's glowing a little. Buck might be a little frustrated with her body right now, but to Eddie? She looks as beautiful as ever. He almost doesn't want to wake her. Especially since she looks so cozy. But she's gonna kick herself if she sleeps the whole day away.

"Hey," he says quietly, kneeling at the edge of the bed and running a gentle hand over her hair. "Time to wake up, baby."
