Summary
Eddie shrugs, goes back to chopping cilantro. “I guess I didn’t think you were that serious about moving out right now. I kinda figured you’d just…”“Stay?” Buck says, his voice suddenly so quiet Eddie’s not sure he really heard it at all.
He looks over his shoulder at Buck who has a distant sort of look on his face. “Yeah. I mean. Chris and I make pretty good roommates, don’t we?”
Eddie finds a way to make Buck stay.

Summary
Buck keeps him everywhere. He’s smuggling him into every inch left vacant, because like this, he doesn’t lose him, won’t lose him. Like this, he gets to keep Eddie forever, even if it’s just the pieces and the memories attached. The reminder of him will haunt him and this apartment like a ghost. Because Buck can’t trap him in his apartment and force him to stay, he’d never ask that, couldn’t ask that, but he’s going to damn well do his best to salvage it in some form. He’s kidnapping Eddie’s shadow, no matter how much it hurts, and there’s no choice about it.
Eddie announces he’s leaving. Buck, naturally, begins a slow descent to madness.
[ALT. summary: Buck has resolved to be the greatest friend ever. He’s handling this move so well. And not at all being abnormal about Eddie’s house. Or Eddie’s belongings. Or, well. Eddie.]

Summary
Buck starts looking for a new place to live without Eddie knowing, wanting it to be a surprise for him to show how much he cares - but obviously it does not go this way. Buck is trying to keep the true reason for leaving to himself but with every passing moment Buck is falling further and further for his best friend and of course Eddie does not feel the same way.
At least Buck doesn't think he does.
--
“And this isn’t your home?”
Buck held himself for a moment contemplating Eddie’s words. Of course it was home, it was the only place that had ever felt like exactly that. Eddie’s couch was the only sofa Buck had ever felt comfortable on, and his kitchen was the only place he felt he could make a full on mess of without judgement.
And living with Eddie and Chris felt like all the worlds had collided at once – like they were his family.

It opens up with Eddie standing in front of the camera, arms crossed across his chest and a frown on his face. They’re in the kitchen, Buck’s phone propped up on several cookbooks to get the perfect angle. “Hey. My boyfriend wants to show you some of the baked goods he’s made today, and y’all better be nice to him.”

Summary
It was Eddie’s turn to cut her off. “No. Buck wouldn’t do that,” Eddie rushed out. A new wave of nausea was making his throat tingle. “He wouldn’t.”
“Wouldn’t he?” Maddie’s voice was practically inaudible.
Eddie desperately sifted through his memories, looking for answers. Almost right away, he could list several occasions Buck put himself on the line. He knew about the time he recklessly crashed on his motorcycle, and he always took risks on the job. Buck never valued his life the way Eddie did.
Maddie was right. It wasn’t Buck’s first attempt. Eddie wasn’t even sure if it was his second, third, or fourth.
“Wait—” Eddie took a breath, trying so hard not to lose his mind. “You said it was three weeks ago. Why are you just telling me now?”
“He didn’t tell me,” Maddie added. He could tell she was crying now.
Eddie’s heart broke into a thousand pieces. “He didn’t—”
“He didn’t tell anyone, Eddie."

Summary
“Eddie, I’m in love with you,” he says, heart thrumming in his chest, in his throat, in his mouth. He feels hot and cold and dizzy by turns.
“What?” asks Eddie faintly, barely even a question.
“I’m in love with you,” Buck says again. “I didn’t know, I didn’t mean to, but I am. I am.”
“You– Right, okay,” says Eddie, so visibly buffering that it makes Buck’s heart clench a little in his chest. Of course he’s in love with Eddie. How could he possibly have let himself pretend otherwise. “Wasn’t expecting this, bud,” says Eddie, and he sounds so shocked that Buck can’t help a wry smile. Of course Eddie’s surprised. They must be the only two people in existence who didn’t already know. “I– Buck, man, you know that I care about you, but…”
“I know,” he says gently to Eddie, because he did know, but that doesn't make this moment hurt any less.
---
Post season 8, Buck confesses his feelings, Eddie lets him down as gently as he can, and they both try to figure out how to be just friends.

Summary
Stood like a statue inside of the audition room, it was very possible that Evan Buckley had managed to unlock a secret eighth ring of hell: mortification. Sure, he'd accepted long ago that he was the type of guy to dive headfirst into a pool without checking the depth, but this time Buck didn’t even know the pool existed.
“Uhh…hi…hello.” Buck managed to mumble as he crept forward. The lady, her voice dripping with uncertainty, responded rather swiftly.
“And you are…?”
“Uh…Buck.” More confused looks. “I mean, uh, Evan Buckley. Sorry, so sorry.”

Summary
“Seriously, the second I get back, you’re the one running off?” Eddie asks as he steps up to Buck. Their shoulders bumps together and Buck does his best not to flinch, from the words or the sudden contact. He’s unused to having Eddie around. The months of distance seems to have overwritten the years of familiarity. “You couldn’t have given me a settling in period?”
Buck should joke back. That’s what he does, matched Eddie, because the two of them have been in sync for years. He can’t though, because Buck has been knocked off the track, spiraling out of Eddie’s gravitational pull, and he’s not sure how to get back on. If he even wants to get back on.
Buck transfers out of the 118, gets a new apartment, and tries to pretend he isn't in love with his best friend.

Summary
“You and me, Diaz. If we’re both single at forty then we’re getting married.”
“Yeah?” Eddie blinked.
“Unless you got a problem with that,” Buck offered, a challenge was back behind his grin. Eddie loved this, he always loved this. The moments between him and Buck where they pushed each other, challenged each other, cornered the other while refusing to back down. It fueled Eddie with a giddy excitement, sparking his nerves despite the dulling effect the alcohol had on his body.
He smirked and held out his bottle, “You’re on, Buckley.”
~~OR~~
When Buck and Eddie make a pact to get married if they're both single by age forty, it takes an embarrassingly short amount of time for Eddie's thoughts to start referring to Buck as "fiancé" instead of "best friend."

Summary
“Why are you acting like this isn’t a big deal?” His voice was raised, but he wasn’t yelling. “Buck, you have been living out of a storage unit for weeks! You’re in pain, you’re hungry, and you’re— You’re homeless. You have no home."
Eddie had such a way with words. You have no home. Very nice of him.
“What do you want me to do, Eddie?” He put the measuring cup down with enough force that it bounced to the floor. “Breakdown and cry? Get on my knees and beg someone for a loan? I took what I could.”
“No, you didn’t.” Eddie’s cursed index finger came up, pointing right at Buck’s chest. “Because you didn’t tell anyone! We would’ve helped you. I would’ve helped you.”
“I don’t want anyone’s help,” Buck pressed. “I got myself into this situation, and I can get myself out. I always do.”
Eddie held both his hands up, but they dropped as something dawned on him. Misery flooded his features. “You took over my lease.”
The last thing Buck wanted to do was make Eddie feel guilty. His decisions put him where he was— Nobody else’s. Still, his head fell. “Yeah, Eddie. I did.”

Or the one where Buck has no choice but to move into a storage unit, and Eddie finds out.

Summary
“The first step after confirming interest in applying would be a cursory credit check, to make sure you meet our baseline minimum of seven—”
Eddie snorts from behind Buck, who tries not to let the realtor—Samuel? Sebastian?—see his eyelid twitch. He pauses anyway.
“Eddie, right? Did you have a question?”
“Not a question, no,” he says lightly, stepping up next to Buck, who smiles tightly at him with eyes screaming (in no uncertain terms) what the fuck are you doing. “You just might have to ignore his credit score.”

Summary
Buck and Eddie have been together for a while now—settled, stable, and quietly happy in a way Buck never thought he’d get to be. They share a home, they share Christopher, they share everything.
Until Eddie sleeps with someone else.
It’s one night. One terrible, meaningless night. But it’s enough to shatter the fragile peace they built together, to gut Buck so completely he forgets how to breathe.
But maybe, if they’re both brave enough, they can still find a way through the wreckage.
Because love doesn’t just disappear—and neither does the ache of wanting to be forgiven.Bookmarked by AvidFFReader90

“Do you guys think it’s weird that Eddie wants to invite some of my exes to the wedding?” Buck asks as he drops down onto the empty couch, Eddie at his side, doing the same.
“Yes.” Comes the unanimous reply from Bobby, Chim, Hen and Ravi.
“Me too.” Buck chirps in agreement. “See.” Buck adds, giving his fiancé a pointed, slightly smug look.

Eddie doesn’t mean to keep setting out two coffee mugs in the morning. It’s just habit — like glancing out the window for Buck’s Jeep, or cooking too much without thinking, or leaving Buck’s favourite throw blanket folded neatly on the couch, even though it’s been weeks since he last used it.
They say it takes sixty-six days to break a habit.
It’s only been eighteen.
Fuck.Or, Buck moves out, Eddie spirals, and a coffee mug becomes his final straw.

From there, it becomes a thing. At least once a day, either Christopher or Buck declare that a mild inconvenience is a part of the anti-gay agenda.
They hit every red light? During pride month? Homophobic.
The hot water stops working? In June? Homophobic.
Or, Eddie doesn't think he really needs to come out to anyone. Christopher adopts a new catchphrase. Buck is confused.
