Summary
After deciding to sue the department, Buck finds out he has a daughter that he didn't know about. Getting her in his care, he needs to learn how to be the dad she deserves while fighting to get his job back, mending relationships, and navigating the realization that his best friend might mean more to him than what he's been thinking this whole time.
Basically it's girl dad Buck with slowburn Buddie
(Ps I mainly chose lawsuit era so that the kids could be closer in age 🤷🏻 if you don't like lawsuit era fics I swear that it's not super relevant past a certain point in the fic. It's very buddie heavy and cute and silly for the most part)

Summary
“We are friends Buck.” Eddie cried desperately. “You’re my best friend!”
“Christ Eddie, you gave me your son!” He yelled now, the anger rising fast from somewhere he didn’t recognise. “You wrote it, signed it and sealed it with your life, binding us all together. What did you expect me to do with that!? Or was it just a…a break glass in case of an emergency thing? Buck will always be there to pick up the pieces, but only when we need him and when he can be useful.”
Eddie scowled, his jaw twitching.
“That is not fair.” His eyes were dark, eyebrows furrowed in equal anger to Bucks. “You can’t use that against me.”or
Eddie leaves for Texas, and Buck follows, only to quickly return a broken man.
As they deal with the fallout, Eddie learns to fight for himself and Buck learns to live again in a world where he doesn't get to love Eddie Diaz.
But that's not the end of the story...Bookmarked by AriCoeya

Summary
“Okay!”
Everyone around Eddie seems to jump at his sudden outburst and he almost felt bad about it. Almost. Except his right eye will not stop twitching, so maybe that ‘almost’ can be upgraded to a ‘barely.’
“This has been an extremely fun welcome back party – truly, I’ve loved every single gift and story about calls. The copious amount of wine and homemade food were just…icing on the cake.” He’s grinning, but it feels forced, even to himself. Here he is, still surrounded by everyone he’s grown to love within the last 8 years, and all he wants is for them to leave.
Well, he doesn’t want Buck to leave.
But now they’re all sort of … staring at Eddie, still, and he feels his cheeks start to heat up. He clears his throat awkwardly as someone to his left coughs; Firework is still faintly playing over the bluetooth speaker until someone clicks it off and he’s left in silence.
***
Or, the one where Eddie comes back from El Paso and is met with a surprise party, when all he wants is to get Buck alone for five minutes.

Summary
Buck shakes his head, stepping closer to Eddie. “You’re freaking out. If you’d just let me speak, instead of walking away…”
Eddie likes to think he’s relatively resourceful, knows how to get himself out of a jam, but Buck is one of the most stubborn people he’s ever met; aside from physically sprinting to his car and somehow changing all the locks on his doors before Buck shows up, there’s no escaping this conversation.
Eddie’s doing a really bad job at keeping things casual.

Summary
“What can I get you?” Buck asks, wiping a spill on the counter, before flicking the rag back into the sink.
When there’s no immediate answer, he glances up, and finds himself staring straight into a pair of big brown eyes that look equal parts startled and lost.
Or; Buck’s a bartender at a gay bar, and Eddie’s recently out and blushes far too easily.
Buck makes him a drink that matches the pretty pink colour of his cheeks.
