    Summary

    After the shitshow that’s been his life for the past few months, Eddie decides that the best way to move forward is to outsource his life decisions to Buck - after all, Buck has always known how to manage Eddie’s life better than Eddie could. And if it prevents Buck from moving out, then all the better.

    Buck is trying to find a new apartment before he gets too comfortable in the Diaz home, but Eddie keeps asking him for things he wants too much to say no to. All he wants is to not hurt anyone, but Eddie seems to be determined to make that impossible.

    All the while, there’s Christopher, the firehouse, and the love of it all.

    Summary

    Eddie is all fucking over him.

    He falls asleep with his body sprawled over the broad expanse of Buck’s chest and wakes up with his face buried into the skin of his neck. They watch a movie together on Eddie’s couch and Eddie practically sits in his lap, head tucked under Buck’s chin as he blinks at the screen. When they’re alone, Eddie can’t stop himself from peppering kisses to Buck’s lips and his cheeks and his forehead as Buck giggles and pretends to try and duck. Under the dinner table every night, Eddie will hook his foot around Buck’s ankle and make Buck duck his head into a flushed smile. And Eddie is always, always holding Buck’s hand—running errands and in their own bed and at the grocery store and across the console while Buck’s driving them to work.

    Maybe he’s just in the honeymoon stage. Or maybe this is how he’ll always feel—like every second he’s not touching Buck is a second wasted.

    in which eddie is in love and a bit clingy about it.

    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

    The purpose of a parasite is to feed off another, to extract parts of a living host to the parasite’s benefit. It is dependent on taking, selfishly depleting one’s life source in order for itself to live. Something to be squashed, removed, and cured from.

    Guilt coats his skin, and Eddie fears he will never be clean no matter how much he scrapes himself away. He will always just be a parasite, useless and diseased with something nonhuman and evil.

    Or, Eddie is greed incarnate.

    Summary

    “My dick is gone,” Eddie says, hushed but frantic.

    Buck splutters, wide unblinking eyes still glued to Eddie’s crotch, eyebrows knit together harshly and dragging high on his forehead. Eddie would laugh at his ridiculous face if he didn’t feel like he was going to throw up. “It’s not gone, you have a—”

    “Don’t say it,” Eddie warns weakly.
    ------
    Eddie wakes up with the wrong equipment. Buck is actually pretty normal about it, until he isn't.
