    Summary

    Black spots dotted his vision. Dying here wouldn’t be so bad— Maddie and Daniel would be sad, would probably avenge his death but he knew that his father would sooner whip him for getting caught in the first place— he had nothing to live for.

    Except.

    Chris was gripping the back of his shirt like his life depended on it and Buck just couldn’t stomach the thought of the boy dying in his arms. So, he kept going, kept running until his legs felt like jelly and his arms felt like they were falling out of their sockets.

    Perhaps Buck's fate was doomed the moment he decided to rescue Christopher Diaz from his cruel brother-in-law, had been decided the moment Eddie Diaz's gaze fell onto him-- caught in the man's webs. Grateful for the blond’s part in saving his son, Diaz offered the Buckley’s a deal they couldn’t afford to refuse— he would protect Evan Buckley from an untimely death in the hands of Doug Kendall.

    The catch? None, of course.

    Eddie wasn’t the type to limit himself when he wanted something, or in this case, one particular someone.

    Summary

    He realizes it right before everything goes to shit. He’s just standing there in the loft and Eddie’s handing him Christopher’s backpack and talking about “he’s not that fast” and “order pizza” and Buck sort of stares at him—partly in shock, partly in reverence—and he thinks "I love you." He shoves it down immediately, of course, as far down as it’ll go, but the fact of the matter is, it’s there somewhere, floating around inside of him. He can’t get rid of it now.

    Not that it matters all that much, though, because there’s the whole quitting thing and the lawsuit thing and the argument in the grocery store and by the time he’s given his (re)start date he knows; he well and truly fucked up.

     
    or: another classic post-lawsuit fic. Angst, hurt, some comfort, more angst, more comfort.

    Summary

    It started as an outlet, at first. A way to let out his anger in a controlled manner, with a willing opponent who would offer him the pain that he deserved.

    He felt itchy. Teen pregnancy in a Catholic household had cloaked him with such a thick layer of shame that he needed a way to forget.

    It was a good thing, he tells himself.

    It was an honest thing - born out of good intentions.

    Until it wasn't.

    -

    Or

    Instead of enlisting in the military, Eddie makes money via an underground fight club in Texas. After threats against his family are leveled, Eddie finds a way to Los Angeles with the help of Athena Grant.

    Now working as private security, he begins working for Evan "Buck" Buckley, an arrogant and hot-headed singer/songwriter who may just give Eddie Diaz a run for his money.

    Summary

    The thing was, the 118 was full of gossips.

    Eddie had been at the station less than a week before Hen and Chim wrangled details about his “hot young thing” from him (“Buck is only 4 years younger than me, he is not a ‘hot young thing’!” Eddie complained.)

    And Bobby was open about his worries for his son’s lack of direction and the secrets he appears to be keeping (“I just wish I could help Evan find the thing that gives him purpose,” Bobby lamented.)

    It just made it all the more ridiculous (and horrifying) when Eddie realizes he’s been dating his Captain’s son this whole time (“Defiling his baby,” Chimney cackled, because he clearly wanted Eddie murdered.)
    --
    Or, the AU where miscommunication abounds as Eddie seeks advice about his new relationship, Bobby despairs over his adopted son's career prospects and his refusal to talk about it, and Evan Buckley-Nash juggles training at the fire academy, building a family with his new boyfriend, and trying to work out how to tell his overprotective dad that he's already chosen the life he wants, actually.

    It takes a goddamn tsunami, of all things, to get the story straight.

    Summary

    “I have no idea what’s going on.” He was embarrassed at the whiny note in his voice, but he couldn’t swallow it away. “I mean, the last thing I remember, I was telling my parents that I was leaving Texas. And then all of the sudden I wake up and it’s like—”

    Like some stranger named Buck had infiltrated every corner of his life. That’s what it felt like.

    ——

    Amnesiac Eddie tries really hard to hate Buck. It doesn’t stick.
