Summary
“We should make it a road trip, Eddie! We never hang out anymore, Eddie! It’ll be so fun, Eddie!” Eddie mimics, his voice trailing as he disappears into the tiny bathroom connected to their Budget Queen motel room.
“We’re not stranded,” Buck scoffs. “And you weren’t saying that when you were stuffing your face with the tamales that I found, or the cherry pie that I read about.”
Or, there was only one bed. And a lot of bickering.

Summary
“It just—when we were at the club. You made it seem like maybe, there’s a reason you’re not dating… women.”
Eddie freezes. Ravi had said it the other night, but Eddie had not been expecting him to so boldly repeat it after the previous unfavorable reaction.
“And—I—I know that sometimes reasons for not dating women can be… um, you know, hard to process. Alone.”
Oh good lord, he’s really going there.

“Sorry, uh, I’m not doing this right,” she says.
“Doing what right?” Eddie asks.
“Actually, sorry, one sec, this is bugging me,” she says before flicking her wrist in the direction of the star. It shifts where it sits atop the tree, untouched, straightening ever so slightly.
“Much better,” she says, turning back to Eddie with a smile.
“H-how did you do that?” Eddie asks.
“I’m your ghost of Christmas past,” she explains, as if it’s the simplest thing on earth. In Eddie’s—albeit, sleep deprived—mind, it certainly is not.
“My…huh?”
OR
On the night before Christmas, Eddie is visited by three (or four) ghosts who show him what it means to let go, to be loved, and to love someone back.

Summary
“And so maybe you’re — you’re kind of like a penguin, you know? And I always liked penguins — they’re great, right? Who doesn’t like penguins? — but that was never me. I was something else. Like a cheetah, maybe. Do you — do you get what I’m saying?”
And Buck…
Buck absolutely does not get when Eddie’s saying.
But now Eddie’s looking at him with these imploring eyes — golden brown and gleaming — and Buck doesn’t want to do anything to disrupt this groove he’s in, not when he’s talking about what he wants, about things that make him happy.
So, “Yeah,” he says, and when Eddie smiles again, all relief, he knows it’s the right call.
Or: Eddie comes out to Buck; Buck thinks he wants to go to the zoo.

Summary
As it turns out, Chris had been waiting for his dad to confirm they could stay in LA.
“This is home,” he’d stated simply. And that had been that.
However, that left the Diaz boys with one tiny problem - their former house was currently occupied. Luckily for them, said occupant loved their company and welcomed them back home with open arms. There wasn’t much by way of discussion - Eddie had told Buck that he and Christopher were staying in LA, Buck showed Christopher that his room was ready and waiting for him, and they celebrated with an evening of pizza and video games.
For a while, things were easy. Simple. Eddie was back at the 118, all of their belongings had been shipped over from El Paso, and the three of them developed a rhythm that made living together seamless.
At some point along the way, though, something shifted.
or; Eddie is in love with Buck. Buck is in love with Eddie. Neither knows how to deal with their current living situation, and instead of talking about it, things spiral out of control.

“You died during surgery. After the shooting. Your heart stopped. Twice.” Buck mumbled.
“I didn’t tell you that, how do you know that?” Eddie questioned.
“The first time it happened, I thought it was a fluke. That I was seeing things. The second time it happened I realized what it meant.” Buck started, he could see Eddie raising an eyebrow at him in confusion. “That you were my soulmate.”

“Did you ever go to Hershey?”
“What?” Eddie asked, thrown. “Why would I go to Hershey without you?” he asked, picking up a dish towel and drying off the plates in in the drying rack.
“When you were younger, I mean,” Buck clarified. “For your ballroom dancing.”
“I think I would—” Eddie paused on his way to grab a new plate, thinking. He met Buck’s face with an equally confused expression and said, “actually, now that you’re saying it . . . yeah.” He looked surprised by his own answer. “Yeah, Tara and I went our junior year. Damn, I can’t believe I forgot about that.”
“I think we met.”
----
In 2008, an unlikely interaction occurred; in 2025, Buck remembers.

“I’ve got a good feeling about this,” Buck says, during the first ad break.
“They’re not going to reuse that one,” Eddie says immediately. “Do you remember when she guessed that from only the L?”
“That was insane, I still have no idea how she did that,” Buck says, excitedly bouncing his leg up and down. “But no seriously, I think I’m going to get one right tonight.”
OR
If Buck gets an answer right on Wheel of Fortune, Eddie will ask him out. There's only one issue - Buck's never gotten one right before.

"Buckley and Diaz aren't in a relationship. They're just like that."

“I have a bottle of champagne, four champagne flutes, one engagement ring to go into one of those champagne flutes, and a note to deliver it all to table 34 with dessert,” Tomas explains, wide-eyed, throwing his hand back to the prep station where said champagne is waiting on ice next to four flutes and a small ring box.
“Okay?”
“Okay so there’s two men and two women and I have no idea who’s getting proposed to. I’m not even 100% on who came with who."

"I'm not accusing you of anything," Maddie assures him, mirth still twinkling in her eyes. "But you have to admit, it does seem like a natural progression."
"To be in love with Buck?" Eddie asks incredulously.
"It wouldn't be the craziest thing I've ever heard." Maddie shrugs and takes a long sip of coffee, expression carefully hidden behind her mug.

Summary
"I'm Buck."
"Buck," Eddie tests the name out. Buck. He likes that name. It sounds good, warm and safe and comfortingly familiar on his tongue. "You're my husband."
Buck's eyes widen, obviously surprised that Eddie remembered that. See, look? He's recovering remarkably quickly. He'll have his full memory back in no time.
"Your husband," Buck repeats and Chris, for some reason, starts giggling.
"My husband," Eddie agrees happily.

Summary
Buck had barely given his heart rate a chance to slow back down to a regular speed, before Eddie whacked him in the arm a few times and pointed upwards. He followed his finger to see that the screen above them, in the centre of the arena, was displaying the words "KISS CAM" over and over, prompting a loud cheer from the audience.
Because Kiss Cams were a thing that happened at sporting events. Right.
This was exactly why Buck hated live sports.
