Summary
“I am taking it easy,” Buck argues, unimpressed. “I’m literally in bed.”
“And I’m expecting you to stay there,” Eddie warns, pointing a cautionary finger.
“Only if you're joining me,” Buck bargains, impatiently patting the mattress next to him.
“I've heard that skin-to-skin contact is really good for the brain, makes it release all the feel good chemicals and regulates stress and stuff.”Eddie narrows his eyes, considering. “Sounds like an excuse to get me shirtless.”

Summary
Eddie flipped the postcard one last time, reading over the words he’d inked into the paper. His thumb brushed along the corner as he slipped the card into the slot.
Hey Buck,
I’m drunk in Texas and this is still the only address I know by heart. I miss you.
Yours,
E.D.
Or; Eddie figures some things out about himself while he's in Texas. Then Chris asks to move back to L.A.

Summary
Oh no.
The birthday wish.
In a moment of weakness, Buck had wished for Eddie to love him back. Romantically.
And ever since then, Eddie has been complimenting his eyes and spooning him and looking at his lips and telling him he loves him.
The evidence is clear. There is only one logical conclusion: the birthday wish turned Eddie gay.
Fuck.
or, Buck wishes for Eddie's love. He gets what he wished for. :)

"Can I try something?"
"Yeah, sure, g-go ahead, man." Buck cringes, and even that is adorable.
"Close your eyes."
"E-Eddie," Buck croaks helplessly.
"I'm not gonna bite, Buckley. Trust me?"
Buck closes his eyes. Squeezes them shut, really.
Eddie tugs his face into the curve of Buck's shoulder before he can lose the nerve, Buck's pulse fluttering wildly against the tip of Eddie's nose.
Buck is struggling after the events in New Mexico. Eddie decides to move in with him about it.

Summary
But now Eddie is back, and Buck doesn’t need the bed. Doesn’t need to stuff his face into the pillow to smell the lingering remnants of Eddie’s scent; he can smell it now, just standing here, deep and forestry and enough to patch every hole in Buck’s chest. But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t still want it, doesn’t wish desperately he could slide under the sheets and lay his head on top of Eddie’s beating heart.
Eddie comes home.
(or, after months of sleeping in Eddie’s bed alone, Buck finally gets to share.)

“...What I’m trying to say is, we’re best friends, you know? There’s nothing romantic about it. Just best friends.”
“Best friends who live together and raise two kids,” Eddie adds, perplexed.
“Yes!” Buck agrees, nodding, “Exactly.”
“Okay,” Eddie says, but it’s not, not at all. He’ll be demanding answers soon.
(Or, Eddie wakes up without remembering most of his life. He doesn’t freak out, really, he just needs someone to explain why is he not married to Buck.)

Summary
“You got one too,” Theo pointed, touching the beauty mark under Eddie’s eye.
Eddie felt his cheeks go red. “Not a birthmark, just a mark.”
“I want it,” Theo said determinedly, walking back to the table to grab his pens. Eddie really should have told him to stop drawing on his face, but he just watched in awe as Theo grabbed a brown marker and ran off to the bathroom.
When Theo returned to the living room a few moments later, he had drawn a small, brown dot underneath his eye to match Eddie’s. He was looking up at Eddie through his lashes, beaming with pride at the spot he’d created.
Eddie lost it.
OR; Eddie Diaz knows he is in love with Evan Buckley. Theo's cuteness sends him into a crisis. He's a yearner, your honour.

Summary
“Wanna dance?” Eddie asks, leaning only slightly away to look at Buck. He’s smirking now, eyes traveling all over Buck’s face, taking in his expression and the color blooming on his cheeks.
There’s a look in Eddie’s eyes now, one that Buck hadn’t quite seen before this trip. Or had he? Did it just not mean to him then what he realizes, or thinks, it means now? Regardless, it confirms a thought that has been niggling at the back of his mind all night.
Flirting. Eddie was flirting with him.
or, Buck visits Eddie in Texas a few months after he leaves LA. They road trip to Austin with Adriana to stay with Sophia, who has planned a night out on the town that none of them will soon forget - especially Buck and Eddie.

Maybe: Tabitha 🔮
Your spell: “Love Spell: Buck” has been completed!The whole car jolts. He looks at Eddie. Eddie is also staring at the screen, almost as if Eddie can also see Buck’s hallucination.
And he is hallucinating, because the alternative is that Eddie, who does not believe in magic, ordered what appears to be an Etsy witch and placed a love spell on what appears to be Buck.
Or, Buck hallucinates a text message from Eddie's Etsy witch.

Summary
Do you love him?
Before Buck’s mind can formulate the undeniable answer in words, a burning sensation engulfs his forearm. For a split, irrational second, he thinks maybe he’s having a heart attack — but no, it’s the wrong arm, and the pain is too low anyway. He races over to his kitchen sink, planning to douse the flames in cold water, but when he looks down, he almost does have a heart attack.
Because there are two black bands maybe half an inch apart circling his forearm just below his elbow. Two black bands that definitely weren’t there when he left Eddie’s house fifteen minutes earlier.
“No,” Buck whispers, staring down at his arm in something like horror. “Oh, no.”
Because there’s only one thing it could be.
His soulmark.
***
In a world where your soulmark only shows up when you realize you're in love with your soulmate, Buck's appears at the worst possible time.
Or season 8b spec, soulmates edition!

Summary
“Do none of you care about the children? It’s a bachelor auction, and you, my friend, are a bachelor. Abracadabra, put your name on the list.”
“I can’t,” Eddie repeats. He can’t. He cannot. “I’m not.”
“You’re not? Since when?” Chimney frowns. “Who?”
It’s not Eddie’s fault that, at that exact moment, Buck walks in. So it’s not his fault that he opens his mouth and says, “Buck.”
Or, Eddie trips and falls into a lightly fraudulent HR-disclosed "consensual romantic relationship" with his best friend. Really, if you think about it, it's a win-win.

“We did switch bodies,” Buck answers.
“Well, yeah, but would you believe if he told you he and Hen switched bodies?”
Buck wrestles with the air in his throat for a few seconds. “Fine, maybe I could’ve—it’s just because you won’t stop flirting with him.”
Ravi swipes at some of the sweat on his brow. “Yeah, and if you haven’t noticed, he’s into it. I’m taking the initiative you have refused to for, like, eight years.”

“What are you talking about?” Maddie’s voice asks, slightly tinny.
The door struggles to open behind him and he drops the phone.
“Mads,” he says, panic slinking into every syllable. “I—I think—“
“Buck, come out,” Bobby says. “Please, baby.”
Buck’s stomach turns and he shakes his head. No, absolutely not. That—crime against humanity is what that is. As if lunch hadn’t been traumatizing enough.
“Was that Bobby?” Maddie’s voice is distant but rightfully alarmed.
“Something’s wrong with them,” Buck yells down at the phone. “I—I know I said I can get anyone to fall in love with me but this is not what I meant!”
or, the 118 gets dosed with a love potion.

Summary
Jee thrusts the card out towards Eddie. “For you,” she says, cheeks dimpling as her smile turns shy.
It reminds Eddie so much of Christopher, when he was this age. So sweet, so earnest. His heart squeezes in his chest as he accepts Jee’s card.
And— it is just about the cutest fucking thing Eddie’s ever seen, honestly.
The card, clearly handmade, is shaped like a bumblebee. A yellow teardrop body, striped with crooked lines of black marker. Its head is shaped like a heart, with two pipe cleaner antennae sticking out, and this teeny tiny u-shaped smile and a pair of googly eyes glued to make up its face. The kicker, though, are the wings — two big, slightly misshapen pink hearts (clearly cut out by Jee-Yun herself) protruding from either side, each with a little message scribbled out in Jee’s loopy handwriting. The one on the left reads “BEE mine” and a grin breaks out across Eddie’s face, an amused chuckle slipping past his lips. The one on the right, though — it brings an embarrassing lump to Eddie’s throat as he reads, “Happy Valentine’s Day Uncle Eddie!”
Uncle Eddie.
Oh.

Summary
Eddie and him and Christopher are becoming a unit, but Buck’s too attached. Even he can tell. Daniel always said that when Buck committed, he wouldn’t stop until he either succeeded or burned down trying.
----
What if Buck’s coma dream wasn’t a coma dream and he actually jumped dimensions?
Buck comes to in Chimney’s apartment, having no recollection of what he has been doing for the past few days. All he knows is that the thought of one Eddie Diaz – a man he has never met – being without his son feels wrong. And Buck is going to do whatever it takes to reunite them.
