Summary
The thing is, now that he’s accepted being romantically inclined towards Buck, he’s pretty sure he sees Buck’s reciprocated feelings everywhere. It feels more like a matter of when rather than if. Like Buck’s a sure thing.
On the evening of Buck’s speed dating event, he comes out of their bedroom asking for help picking between two jackets, and Eddie simply says, “you don’t need to go to that.”
“Huh?” Buck’s eyebrows shoot up, framed by that blushed red birthmark.
Eddie shrugs, leaning back on the couch and kicking his feet up. “Go waste time if you want, but you really don’t need to.”
/
Eddie is possessive of Buck, but he doesn't get jealous. Why would he? Buck's always been his.

“A week,” Eddie sighed. “We can do this, right?”
Eddie’s gaze was pleading, needing assurance and comfort. His eyebrows were pinched in the middle of his forehead and Buck wanted to reach out and smooth it out with his thumb. Instead, he said, “’Course we can. We’ve faced tsunamis, beenados, earthquakes, broken dams… hey, where do we think the Diaz Parents Staying For A Week ranks?”
“Most likely to end in death,” Eddie muttered.
Buck clicked his tongue as he pulled the bowls from the cabinet for the salad, “That’s the lightning strike, actually.”

For the last few months, Eddie would come into their bedroom and see Buck, tucked in with his bedside lamp on, waiting for him.
The bed is colder now, stripped of Buck’s things, stripped of Buck himself.
No faint indentation in the mattress, already warmed by Buck’s weight, by the time Eddie finally climbs in.
No brush of arms and legs as Eddie snuggles under the covers and Buck scoots over to make room.Now it’s just Eddie’s bed again. Vacant. Barren.
Or, Buck has moved out, and Eddie can only see everywhere he's missing

Summary
"Fucking hell, Eddie, I’m horny and I can’t do anything about it because my hand is useless and I have no way to get off and I need to get off so fucking bad," he heaves at the end, as a blush heats up his cheeks and travels down his chest.
"Oh."
"Yeah, oh," he laughs humorlessly.
"So you’re restless and turned on. All the time?"
"All the fucking time."
"That’s hard," Eddie muses.
"Eddie, I swear to fucking God," Buck snaps, still hidden behind his hand. He can practically hear the shit-eating grin on his best friend’s face.
"You know, I could always help with that."
And what?
"What."
"I’m just saying," Eddie murmurs before lying down and clicking off the light, "let me know if you ever need a hand. What’s a little handjob between best friends anyway?"
Or in which Buck gets injured on the job and Eddie selflessly lends a hand whenever Buck needs it.

Summary
“I-I need you do to something for me. I—” There’s a terrible wheeze and Bobby can almost see the man’s pinched face, desperately trying to smooth any indication of harm. “I need you to tell—”
“No.” Bobby says strongly into the radio, his eyes never wavering from the collapsed building. He feels himself losing it – he feels the same terrible ache snake in his spine then he did that night, smoke clouding his lungs. “No, firefighter, you’re not doing this. We’re clearing debris and we’ll—”
“Please?”
It’s small, almost childlike.
How could he ever deny a dying man’s request?

Summary
"The man who died today, Evan Buckley. He was your father, honey.”
In five words, the earth gave out below Mickey. She was thankful to have been sitting on the couch’s arm, unprepared for the loss of gravity, reality, and common sense she felt mere seconds ago.
Mickey wished she’d looked closer at the broadcast, scrutinized every detail of this man’s face, and pasted it over her own until she could pinpoint the things she owed to him. She wanted to ask him his favorite color, his favorite animal, all of the things she could, and have him ask the same back out of genuine curiosity for his daughter. But now he was lost, gone before Mickey knew to miss him. Not saying a word, she stood up and marched to her room, ignoring her mother’s calls and the dinging of the heated stove. Mickey Morrison opened her phone, typed in ‘Evan Buckley’, and started to scroll, wiping the tears off her screen.
After a tragic outbreak of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever 'kills' firefighter Evan Buckley, Mickey Morrison discovers her lost parentage and seeks out the 118 to connect with her deceased father. The only problem is, Buck isn't really dead.

“You’re not a dickhead for not wanting to lead women on,” Buck assures him. “And hey, if you’re cool with it, I’m happy to provide some PSS.”
“PSS?” Eddie asks, amused but wary.
“Platonic smoochin’ service!” Buck says with a grin.---
This is exactly as silly as it sounds, but hopefully also fun! -

“Stop it,” Buck huffs out, shuffling out of reach. “You’re being ridiculous.”
“I’m not doing anything,” Eddie insists, sliding backwards until his socked foot touches Buck’s leg again.
“You’re being a dick.”
Buck attempts to move away again, and Eddie follows him, refusing to stop touching him with his socks until suddenly Buck’s not there anymore and a loud thump echoes throughout the room.
“Did you just—”
“Shit,” Buck mutters, and Eddie can vaguely see the shape of Buck’s body in the dark as he heaves himself up off the floor. “What the hell is wrong with you?”

"It's not what it looks like," Buck blurts.
Bobby's eyebrows reach for his hairline. "So you weren't violating the one-firefighter-per-shower regulation?"
"We," Buck sputters. "I mean, okay, yeah. We were, but we—"
"We were figuring out breakfast," Eddie cuts in.
"Well, next time, figure it out in different stalls."

Summary
It was all just too much. He’d gotten maybe three hours of sleep in the last 48 hours, his whole body hurt, and he was just so overwhelmed that he couldn’t think straight.
“Good boy.”
A thumb brushed softly across his bottom lip and Buck just—
He closed his eyes, leaned forward, and sucked Eddie’s thumb gently into his mouth.

Buck has an oral fixation and lots of complicated feelings. Luckily, he also has Eddie.

Summary
And Eddie hadn’t been stalking Buck, okay? Let’s get that out of the way up front. Buck knew that Eddie had a Nest Cam, and it had been his idea not to change the password, to let Eddie keep access to the account despite living 800 miles away. It had been practical, he’d said. And besides, it was still technically Eddie’s name on the lease, it was his house. So Buck knew. He knew about the Nest Cam, so it didn’t count as stalking. Just like Buck knew about his air tag. It was right there on his keychain! Had been, ever since a few months after the Tsunami. It had been Chris’ idea, so that if he ever got separated from Buck again, they’d be able to find him. Buck knew about the air tag. Hell, they’d even changed the battery together not long before Eddie left. So Buck knew. He had his permission. So none of this counted as stalking.
OR
Eddie has a Nest Doorbell and that's how he finds out about Buck's hookup with Tommy. He assumes that means they're dating, and he deals with it *very* healthily. (By deciding to compete with Tommy for Buck's attentions with some light dom/sub play - what could go wrong?)

“I just—I don’t want you to be alone,” said Eddie, softly, like an admission.
Join the fucking club, Buck thought. It was funny, but none of his laughs were coming out right tonight. “I am alone, Eddie.”
“Buck, I—”
“She wants my kidney.” There it went; Buck never could keep anything inside. Could never keep the feelings contained, could never stop them from spilling out over the people nearest him. “That’s what fucking happened, okay? My dad needs a kidney donor and they remembered why they bothered having me in the first place. Is that what you wanted to hear? That my parents finally found a use for me after all these years?”

A request from his mom tears open old wounds for Buck. From 800 miles away, Eddie tries to stitch him back together.

Summary
”Did I do it right? Eddie, how could I possibly mess it up?”
“I dunno, you of all people could figure it out.” He swipes at a stream of shampoo that was heading for his eye, and smiles when Buck sticks out his tongue.
“I guess I’ll just wait for you to be done,” Buck sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose. He just wants to be clean. That is all he wants.
There’s a strange look in Eddie’s eyes, analytical and apprehensive, and Buck watches in fascination as Eddie tugs the curtain open a little more, still keeping himself covered, and says, “Showers big enough for two. Come on.”
Buck and Eddie start showering together after bad shifts.
