Summary
“I— I should get out of your hair,” he says.
Eddie turns to look at him, the movement sharp. There’s a look on his face that looks like he thinks Buck might have lost his entire mind.
“Did you hit your head on something?” he asks drily, like he knows that Buck didn’t. Buck hesitates anyway.
“Uh,” he says ineloquently. “I don’t think so.”
“Then why are you saying things that don’t make any sense?”
in other words, the diaz boys take buck home with them after the tsunami.

Summary
Buck’s hand slides up the length of Eddie’s arm, his palm catching along the edge of Eddie’s jaw. His other hand mirrors it, framing Eddie’s face with a careful reverence, eyes flitting across Eddie’s features, his lips the focal point.
“One kiss." Buck's words are so, so soft, laced with the slightest hint of determination.
“One kiss,” Eddie echoes, eyes fixated on the dark seam of Buck’s lips, the gentle arch of his cupid’s bow. “So I know.”
“So you know.”

Summary
"With a final scrape of a too-short fingernail along the sidewalk, Buck successfully rescues the last of the pamphlets and trots back over to Ravi.
"Got 'em!" Buck hands the slightly messy pile to Ravi, a triumphant grin across his face.
"My beautifully appointed table thanks you, Buck."
But all Buck can do is smile.
It's his senior year of college, and he's on track to earn his Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and graduate on time. He's the outgoing chapter president of the Rho Kappa chapter of Nu Alpha Sigma International Fraternity at the University of Texas at El Paso.
Everything is perfect."

Summary
Before he was legally allowed to drink, Eddie looked out the passenger side window of his dad’s truck, and in the dusty, barren nothing of the Texan landscape, he saw his entire life written out for him in someone else’s handwriting.
Eleven years later, walking out of an emergency meeting at Christopher’s school over his son’s recent “behaviour”, Eddie thinks of the view out of his dad’s truck.
And when Buck asks, “So? What happened?”
Eddie lies.

Summary
It's a pretty graceless confession but last Eddie checked it was 87° and, as a reminder, 3:46 in the goddamn morning. Whenever he'd occasionally let himself imagine this moment it had been a lot sweeter, maybe candles, maybe flowers, a big emotional recounting of exactly how much Buck means to him and how much his life has changed for the better because he's in it, but Eddie really thinks he should be cut some slack given the circumstances.

Summary
He unlocks the door thinking a little nonsensically about the buddy system. We have to stick together, he thinks as Buck moves immediately to the heating controls, turning the AC on with a familiar clank-hum, it’s safer that way. Buck turns to face him, opens his mouth to say something but then Eddie is there, closing the distance, kissing him. We have to stick together Buck’s lips are warm so we won’t get lost and the noise he makes isn’t as surprised as it maybe should be so we can take care of each other but he still pulls back it’s safer, please, it’s safer this way.

Summary
Buck dreams of an invisible boy.
It’s a dream he’s had all his life, always the same. A well lit room, pale whites and blues, a window open with a fresh breeze, and a boy in a bed with a smile on his face and sunlight streaming right through him. His hand is in the air like he’s reaching towards something, and Buck can see through it to the leaves on the tree outside. He realizes that the something he’s reaching towards is Buck himself, and he tries to reach back, but their hands never touch before he wakes.
Buck opens his eyes in the dark of the bunk room, station alarm going off overhead, and rolls out of bed.

Summary
The morning after Eddie Diaz is buried alive, he wakes up from a dreamless sleep.
It makes the reality of what he’s been through feel distant. Like it happened to someone else, maybe. Like he read about it in the news, felt a pang of empathy for the trapped kid, hoped to God nothing like that would ever happen to Christopher, and moved onto the next story. Like it was nothing at all.
I got trapped, he tells himself, trying to cement it in his head. I got trapped and I survived and should I have?

Summary
Buck’s tears had dried not too long ago, but his hands still shook as he wrung them. Bobby had just left to deal with, well, everything, but Buck remained by the truck, refusing to drag his eyes from Eddie for even a second. Eventually it was just Hen and Chim that remained, and Buck could finally see Eddie clearly. The man’s face was streaked with mud, dirt, and blood, his shoulders were bowed and eyes stared blankly off somewhere ahead of him. Buck bit his lips, but it didn’t really help him from asking again. “Is he okay?”
Or; Buck finally does something about it.

Summary
“Sorry,” Eddie chokes, “about the… voicemail.”
Buck feels Eddie’s hand slacken in his. Watches the light in his eyes start to dim, and Buck yanks at his arm. “No, no – no, don’t… don’t be sorry. You…” He wants to wait because if he says it now, he’s admitting Eddie might not make it. “You know how I feel, Eddie.”

Summary
Sleep would be nice. It just isn’t coming to him. Maybe he’s too anxious about tomorrow, or maybe it’s because this mattress feels like a slab of concrete, or maybe —
Maybe it’s because he knows Buck is just a few feet away from him.
Maybe it’s because he can’t stop thinking about him saying: you’re lucky we don’t have to share a bed again, so you don’t have to hear me snoring directly in your ear.
On their way to El Paso to pick up Christopher, Buck and Eddie stay the night at a motel. There’s more than one bed, obviously, but— Eddie kind of wishes that wasn’t the case.

Summary
“Get home safe,” Buck says. Then, as always, he thinks: I love you.
Eddie goes very, very still. His breathing stutters to a stop. There’s a strange expression on his face, his mouth twisting in that way it does when he doesn’t know what to say.
Buck squints blearily at him. “What?”
A muscle in his jaw twitches once. Twice. The muted light illuminates the quiet movement of his throat as he swallows.
“What’d you just say?”
“Get home safe,” Buck repeats, a yawn overtaking the last word. “Why…?”
Or: the one where Buck, drowsy and delirious on pain medication, confesses his love to Eddie without realizing it.

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.

It goes like this:
1. Buck and Taylor break up over him kissing Lucy.
2. Eddie and Buck sleep together.
3. Buck and Taylor get back together.(4. Eddie deals. Poorly. He should be used to the whole unrequited thing by now. Was easier when he didn’t know what Buck sounds like when he comes though.)

Summary
Buck nods, rolling his glass gently between his palms. “Do you think you’ll ever have that? What Hen and Karen have?”
“You asked me that once before, you know,” Eddie says, and maybe he hasn’t fully grown out of deflection. Buck’s head turns toward him, a small little smile that means he remembers. “I said I hope so.”
“Has your answer changed?”
“Has yours?”
A scoff, Buck’s gaze tearing away from Eddie’s to return to his glass, where his fingers tap uselessly against the side. “I guess I’m not sure I’m built for this kind of love. The epic, all-consuming kind, I mean. Maybe I just have to be okay with — something I can live with, you know?”
