    Summary

    “I’ll do it,” Eddie repeats, looking at Buck in one of those silent conversation ways again, but Buck actually can’t figure out what he’s trying to say this time. It messes with his brain, until Eddie speaks again, “I’ll pretend to only be a little offended none of you have thought to ask me before, but Buck, I’ve fixed a lot of cars. I can look at yours.”

    (or, the check engine light comes on in Buck's Jeep, Eddie volunteers to fix it and carpool with him in the meantime, and it all breaks down from there, literally and metaphorically)

    Summary

    “So,” Eddie starts, taking a long sip. “How long have I had the ring?”

    Hen chokes on her coffee.

    “I’m sorry,” she says, eyes wide behind her glasses. “What ring?”

    or: an amnesia au (with a twist).

    Summary

    He saw what Tommy must have seen, Buck who was so obviously jealous of them. Buck who always defaulted to Eddie’s side. Buck who asked Tommy to move in despite wanting Eddie to go to the stupid basketball game with him a few hours earlier.

    My attention?

    You can take Eddie if you want.

    I’m not your last.

    Oh.

    Oh.

    Oh no.

    Oh fuck.

    OR -

    Summary

    “Which do you think makes you feel most loved?”

    Eddie thought for a long moment. Too long, maybe. Then he shrugged, “Honestly, Buck? I have no idea.”

    Buck’s brows pinched up. “What do you mean? When have you felt the most loved?”

    “Don’t make a big thing of this, Buck. Promise?”

    Buck made a show of crossing his heart, brows still raised curiously.

    “I’m not sure I’ve ever… really felt loved in a relationship? I’m not convinced that I know what makes me feel loved…”

    OR -

    After finding out that Eddie doesn't know what his love language is, Buck sets about finding out for him. He begins a five week experiment, one for each love language, to figure out which will make Eddie feel the most loved.

    Summary

    "Hey, sorry about that, I was just—Eddie?”

    Eddie’s head shot up at the sight of Buck, frozen halfway towards his seat. “Buck?”

    Buck let out an awkward chuckle and glanced around. “There must be a mix-up, I’ll go ask—”

    “No!” Eddie practically yelled the word, and then he winced at the desperation in his own voice. Belatedly, he realized it was possible that people who were interested in men were supposed to be sitting there. But Buck was watching him with wide eyes, still paused leaning on his chair, so Eddie added, “I could use a six-minute break. You know, from finding out how many siblings every woman in this bar has.”

    Buck’s eyes glinted in the dim bar lighting. He finally took the seat and asked, “oh, so you don’t care about how many siblings I have?”

    ——

    Eddie and Buck finally go on a date. It just takes them three times to realize it.

    Summary

    “His shirt’s on inside out,” Josh commented to Linda. Eddie opened the door to the breakroom and tried to let it close behind him, but that did not deter either of his colleagues. “Is this a walk of shame?”

    “Well, I am walking,” Eddie confirmed, rounding the counter and beelining to the empty coffee pot. “And full of shame.”

    “What happened?”

    “I stood him up,” he answered, shortly.

    After what was probably a very involved silent conversation between Linda and Josh, Josh said, “Eddie, if you aren’t ready, I’m sure he’d understand.”

    “I am ready,” he said, detaching the water reservoir with more force than necessary. “I didn’t do it on purpose.”

    -----

    Eddie Diaz has been trying to get Firefighter Buckley to agree to a date for the last two months; so no one is more surprised than he is when he finally gets a chance—and blows it.

    Or: Dispatchers Eddie and Maddie are both looking for a second chance. They just don't realize they want one from the same person.

    Summary

    Buck knew the universe wasn’t really a huge fan of him. But this? This was a new low.

    The last two weeks of working with Eddie Diaz had been a special type of hell. Of course, while he’d been out of work nearly dying several times, Bobby had managed to replace him with the hottest, most competent probie that ever graduated the Academy. And of course, he hated Buck.

    Which was good, because Buck hated him right back.

    -----

    In a world where everyone's timing is just a little off, Buck and Eddie take a few more missteps on the way to finding each other.

    Summary

    “You know what they say,” Buck replied. “The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. Isn’t that right, Eddie?”

    Bobby looked up, then, glancing back and forth between the two of them—Buck, giving Eddie his best lovesick puppy dog eyes, Eddie ignoring him. “What’s going on here?” he asked.

    “Oh, we’d need several psychologists to unpack that,” said Hen. “Maybe an anthropologist, too.”

    Next to her, Ravi grimaced and explained, “I said something stupid earlier, and now Buck has been flirting with Eddie all day, to drive us insane.”

    ----

    Buck starts flirting with Eddie. As a joke, obviously.

    Summary

    “Come on, you’re telling me you wouldn’t consider sneaking into a storage closet with me?”

    “Obviously, I would!” Eddie was whisper-yelling now, and Buck wasn’t sure exactly what point he was trying to make, but he was enjoying every second of this. “But one of us is going to have to have restraint and it has to be the—the one with the most experience.”

    Buck felt his mouth drop open in delight. “Eddie,” he admonished. “Are you calling me a whore?”

    “No!” said Eddie, looking increasingly flustered. “I just mean—clearly you have the power to do—” he gestured at Buck, “that, so you have the—the responsibility to, like, use it. Responsibly.”

    “Did you just quote Spiderman?”

    Eddie propped his elbows on the table and dropped his head into his hands, groaning dramatically. “I’m going to die. The first date, and I’m going to die.”

    “Been there, wouldn’t recommend it.”

    Buck and Eddie and the first date.

    Oh, fuck him, did he almost sleep with a serial killer? Distantly, he thought, Hen and Chim are never going to let me live this down. And then he thought, I might not live at all.

    -----

    Buck is having a hard time dealing with Eddie's impending move to El Paso and resorts to some Buck 1.0-style coping mechanisms. Unfortunately for everybody, this backfires in spectacular fashion.

    Especially for Eddie, who waited until now to realize he was in love with his best friend.

    Summary

    “Are you homophobic?”

    “What?”

    “Will you be my boyfriend?”

    “Yes,” Eddie answered, automatically, even though his mind had volunteered several other pressing questions, like what are you talking about and what is happening and did I recently sustain brain damage.

    “Thanks,” said Buckley, and then he pushed Eddie back against the side of the firetruck and kissed him.

    Summary

    Maddie blinks, her heart dropping into her stomach. That's Evan’s address.

    “We have one male, late twenties with a concussion and a suspected fractured collarbone, and a second male with a possible fractured ankle.”

    Suddenly, she recognises the voice.

    "Eddie?”

    There’s a moment of silence, then a muffled, "I think I got Maddie.”

     

    AKA, the firefam responds to a rather embarrassing call at Buck’s place.

    Summary

    Now that he has one, Buck has realized that he’s never had a best friend before. Not until Eddie. Naturally, he gets a little weird about the whole thing. But who can blame him really? He’s never done this before.

    Buck (Work): come over

    Eddie Diaz: Can’t, I’m busy.

    Buck (Work): do you hate me

    Eddie Diaz: No

    Buck (Work): why do you hate me

    Buck (Work): why do youh ate me

    Eddie Diaz: I don’t hate you

    Buck (Work): whatever

    Eddie Diaz: I’ll come over after.

    Buck (Work): yay :)

     

    Or, for years, Buck has jokingly texted Eddie like a crazy possessive girlfriend and he's never actually meant it, so why does it feel so real when Eddie starts to spend time with Tommy?

    Summary

    “Chim. Weird question?”

    Chimney’s chair creaks. Buck cranes his head over the back of the couch and watches him straighten up, pop his back, close the folder.

    “You only ever ask me weird questions,” he says, and then crosses the loft to sit in one of the armchairs. He levels Buck with a look that’s way too knowing for the amount of words they’ve exchanged. “What’s up?”

    He takes a breath.

    “What does it feel like to be a dad?”

    in which buck is used to wanting things he's not allowed to have; it's just that he never thought being a father would be one of them.

    “What...what have you done with Buck?” Eddie is going to kill him for messing with his phone. No, that’s too extreme. He’s going to maim him. Just a little.

    “Check under H,” Chim offers helpfully, shooting a look over to Hen with a smirk.

    Why the hell would he be under—

    Then he sees it.

    Husband.

    “He baby-trapped you,” the man said with a misplaced confidence that was almost impressive, “that’s fucked up, man.”

    Buck blinked. Then blinked again. Then, “Uh... no. No, that’s not—”

    “Shut it, Benji, that’s not what happened,” the other robber scowled, no longer trying to pretend he wasn’t eavesdropping. “They’re both dudes. A dude can’t baby-trap another dude.”

    “Of course they can. Equal rights and shit! That’s what the parades are for.”

    Summary

    “Yeah,” Eddie says, and the darkness behind his eyelids takes on a white edge. “Be good. Nice to be married,” he yanks on Buck’s t-shirt, “best friend.”

    Finally, Buck takes a breath that sounds off somehow, but he laughs too, and that sounds normal, Eddie thinks. A normal laugh.

    “Sure, Eds,” he says, and there’s his hand in Eddie’s hair again, a puff of breath on the crown of Eddie’s head like Buck leaned in to press a kiss there and then stopped, but why would he stop—“I’ll marry you if you remind me tomorrow.”

    or the one in which joking about being married to your best friend is all fun and games, right up until you realize that you're not laughing.

    Summary

    “I feel fucking explosive, Buck. Like I’m about to go off at any second. I don’t want you caught in my mess.”

    His eyes sting. At the very least, Buck contains the sound of it in his voice. “Eddie, I don’t know if you’ve noticed,” he replies, “but I already am.”

    Eddie self-implodes. Christopher, seeking refuge, flees to Buck—whose priorities amount to, in varying order: take in the kid, get Eddie to talk to him, and keep the three of them afloat in the process. (Oh, and Tommy’s there too. He thinks.)
