Summary
“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.”
---
There's a hostage situation at the bank and Buck is forced to reevaluate his relationship with Eddie (and vice versa).

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
Christopher peered at him, his eyes bigger through his lenses. “Why?”
Buck nearly choked. “Why? Why… what? I mean, I’m bisexual, if that’s what you’re—”
“Oh, no.” Christopher shook his head, “I just meant, if you’re dating men, why aren’t you dating Dad?” Which simply did not help Buck’s choking problem.
Buck really, truly had never pictured Eddie’s son asking him these questions, specifically why he wasn’t dating Eddie.
“Uh— your Dad isn’t— we’re not—”
“Oh.” A pause.
“I don’t want you to date Dad.”

Summary
In an alternative universe, where the first words spoken to a person by their soulmate are marked on their skin like a tattoo, Buck has "Fuck off" written over his heart.
He's spent most of his life worried about just how much of an asshole his soulmate is going to be, and what that means for their future relationship.
Then he meets the guy outside of a juice bar, and it doesn't exactly go as Buck thought it would.Bookmarked by Higgbots

Summary
That’s his problem. Buck always manages to make the calls personal, even if they are so far behind his realm of reality. He always makes them about himself, he had been told this way too many times already. And he’s trying to change, he really is. But then there are moments like these in which a little girl needs saving and Buck blurs the line between what’s his job and his own need to be there for everyone he meets. His need to fix everything.So he stays there, just for that first surgery he keeps reminding himself, just to make sure she makes it out of the ER. Just to make sure Hen is right and she is in good hands. And a few hours later, when she makes it out and the doctor’s look around the waiting room for Cassie’s parents without all the context Buck already has, he stands up. On instinct. Barely even a lie. He couldn’t count it as one when he hadn’t spoken at all. He just stands up. He stands up and he follows the doctor to the ICU.
In which Buck worries about the little girl he just saved from a fire, and he gives her a home in his arms.

Summary
Here’s the thing.
Eddie’s in love with his best friend.
He doesn’t know how or why it happened, just that it must have built up little by little over the years until it blossomed into this all consuming feeling pushing at the walls of his chest. Sometimes he worries it’ll crack a rib, that they’ll creak and flex beneath the weight of it the way Bucks had when he performed CPR on him, but rather than holding strong like Buck’s, his ribs, weak from years of ignorance, will snap.
Because he should have known. He should have known when he booked the appointment with his attorney and wrote Buck’s name into his will. He should’ve known when a bullet pierced his shoulder and blood spattered over Bucks face, and in that moment between seeing and feeling, absolute terror over Buck’s safety pierced him with as much force as the bullet.
--
Or, Buck's found a place to move to.

Summary
“If I had,” Chris lingers on the words, watching Eddie intently through the screen, “If I had conditions?”
Eddie feels his stomach knot up. It’s the first time Chris has ever alluded to a willingness to come home. Usually he just shoots Eddie down with a flat “I know” before hurrying off the call. Eddie Diaz will be damned before he lets this chance slip through his hands.
“Anything,” his voice rings with desperation in his own ears, “Whatever you need to feel ready to come home. If I can make it happen, I will.”
Chris eyes him, young face serious as a judge presiding over trial. An apt comparison because only Chris could condemn or parole Eddie. His fate is in his son’s hands so completely that if he was going to therapy, Frank would probably be concerned. Finally, Chris opens his mouth and says something so earth shattering as to crack the foundations of his father’s mind.
“Marry Buck,” Chris says firmly.

Summary
“Buck?” Eddie asks when he opens the door. “What’s- is that a baby?”
Buck doesn’t know what to say other than, “Help.”
Buck's running late to work when he finds the baby on his doorstep, and that pretty much sums up this portion of his life. Now he must figure out what to do, how to do it, and why doing it with Eddie gives him a feeling he can’t shake.

Summary
“Well, tattoos can look like almost anything.” Buck lifts his other arm to show Christopher the null sign on his inner elbow. “Your dad’s is script– uh, words, like this one–” he twists to display the quote on the outside of his forearm. “But I have some that are just shapes.”
Chris nods at this thoughtfully. “Can you color them?”
Buck grins. “You can get them in color, yeah. But all of mine are black.”
Chris glances at his markers, then back at Buck’s arm. “Can I color them?”
And, well. They’re just Crayolas.
~
For the 9-1-1 Actions Gotcha for Gaza prompt "Chris likes using markers to color in Buck's tattoos and as he gets older, he starts designing them."

So when one arrives on their doorstep, it's only natural to fold him into their family, unconventional as it may be, while they wait to hear who dreamed him into being.Bookmarked by Higgbots

“Is your boyfriend a firefighter too?” Ali says knowingly, a little smirk on her face. Buck feels like he’s missed a step in the conversation, because how could Ali know anything about Tommy?
But he soldiers on, says, “Yes, actually, he’s –”
“Eddie!”

Or, five times one of their exes mistakenly assumed Eddie was Buck's new boyfriend, and one time the ex was right.

Summary
The phone on Buck’s nightstand starts to vibrate, and Eddie freezes in a delayed reaction.
“Fuck,” Buck says, dropping his head back and turning over to grab his phone, forcing Eddie to peel himself away.
Eddie's eyebrows scrunch. He recognizes the haptics: it’s Morse code. The vibrations are reading out: “PA.”
After running a quick list of abbreviations in his head, the only explanation that makes sense is Pennsylvania.
Oh. Yeah, fuck.
or: the buckley parents are visiting LA for jee's 4th birthday. which is fine, except they don't know two things:
1. buck has hearing aids again, and 2. he's engaged to eddie.

Summary
Eddie can’t move. Like this, Buck is illuminated by the sunlight streaming through the window; dust motes shimmering around his head, his hair haloed in gold. Beautiful, Eddie thinks. And to his surprise, he doesn’t feel any sort of guilt about doing so.
Except — he should. Because Buck is dating Tommy, and he’s happy, and Eddie would rather go to his grave repressed and miserable than ever take away from Buck’s happiness.
Or: Eddie starts to untangle his complicated feelings about himself, and Buck. Mainly Buck.
