    Summary

    Then with the plates rinsed, he'd all but thrown them into the dishwasher, slamming it closed. "I just—I don't get it. Why can't you come to me? Every time, every fucking time. Christ, sometimes, Buck, I just can't with you—you can be so fucking stupid sometimes!"

    And as soon as the words had left his mouth, he'd regretted them, especially with the way Buck had flinched back, curling an arm around his midsection with a wobbly smile.

    "Yeah, um, I know—I know that I can be," Buck had stuttered, then taken a step back when Eddie took one closer, dodging his hand that he'd reached out in comfort—an apology. Tears had already begun to well in Buck's eyes, and suddenly, he'd looked so fucking young. "Sorry, Eds. I didn't—I just didn't want to worry you—stupid me, right?" The not-laugh that followed made him feel sick.

    --or--

    Buck hiding an injury causes Eddie to say something he regrets, which hurts Buck deeply, and he needs to find a way to repair the damage.

    Summary

    Buck is pretty sure the universe is actively trying to murder him at this point. There’s just no other explanation. In the last two years he has been blown up and subsequently crushed by a fire truck, suffered from a pulmonary embolism, nearly drowned in a tsunami and now this. How many times can he almost die before it stops being an accident and starts being some kind of cosmic hit put out on his life?

    Or, a building collapses on Buck and Eddie. Confessions ensue.

    Summary

    “You have a son. Who’s already nearly lost you more times than any kid should. Think about what would happen to him if you died. I know you usually do everything in your power to get back home to him but what happens if your luck runs out? He loses his dad and gets shipped back to Texas to live with your parents? We all know that’s the last thing you want.”

    Eddie watches as Bobby runs a hand through his hair. He clears his throat, wincing slightly at the lingering pain, and states matter-of-factly, “He’d go to Buck, actually.”

    -

    or, the one in which they actually, FINALLY, bring up Eddie's will because the radio silence on it in the last four years has driven me to insanity (aka. 1 time each member of the team finds out about Eddie's will +1 time they actually realise it's real)

    Summary

    “Okay,” Buck says, collapsing beside Eddie on the sofa with a glint in his eyes that almost definitely means trouble, “before you say no, remember that I already said yes for both of us, so you don’t actually have a choice.”

    or: Buck and Eddie agree to fake date to win a reality TV show. It goes... well, pretty much exactly how you'd expect.

    Summary

    Maddie has her forehead against her hands, which are clasped in what looks to be prayer. “Okay, so – hang on, so Eddie’s gay?”

    “Yeah.” Buck can’t believe they’re doing this again.

    “And he told you he was in love with you.”

    “Right,” Buck says.

    “And you…” Maddie peeks up at him. “You’re in love with him?”

    “Absolutely.”

    Maddie draws in a long breath, and she splits her hands to pillow her face. “But you turned him down and told him you wanted to wingman for him instead?”

    OR

    Eddie confesses. Buck handles it poorly.
