Summary
Silly questions were more often than not fielded in the firehouse. There—restless in the bunkroom, in the quiet between calls—it was free reign, and Eddie was happily accustomed to it. Seven years of questions in, there was really no moment of downtime that Eddie didn’t expect Buck to break with some speculative scenario or would-you-rather.
“Who do you think would win in a fight: me or Athena?”
“Buck, she has a gun.”

Summary
Eddie isn’t dating right now. Eddie probably isn’t dating ever again, actually, given the fact that he had panic attacks over the thought of spending his life with the last woman that he dated.
So if he’s not dating - and he’s not - then it isn’t even relevant.
Until some guy flirts with Buck when they’re on a call, and Eddie briefly considers how likely he is to be acquitted of murder.

It’s just - it’s too much, and not enough, and Eddie isn’t sure if he’s allowed to want more than this, but he does anyway. He wants everything with Buck.
(Or, five times Eddie doesn’t mean to kiss Buck, and the one time he does.)

Summary
Buck stares at the man in the brown jacket with a flower in his pocket for three entire minutes and, impossibly, the man is still Eddie Diaz. Eddie Diaz, his best friend, his straight best friend, is sitting at a table, at the cafe Buck is supposed to meet his blind date at, wearing the brown jacket with a flower in his pocket that his blind date is supposed to be wearing and it’s just not making a lot of sense.
Or, Buck goes on a blind date. Impossibly, so does Eddie.

Summary
Buck startles awake to Chris prying his eye open. Chris’s concerned expression swims into his vision as both eyes adjust, squinting at the morning sun streaming in through the window.
“You’ve been sleeping for fourteen hours,” Chris deadpans. Buck is still half asleep, but he catches the slight waver in his voice, can see his eyebrows furrowed as he watches Buck carefully. “You went to bed at seven last night, and now it’s nine in the morning.”
“Nine in the morning, huh?” Buck’s own voice resembles more of a croak as he sits up, muscles aching and head still throbbing. It’s all a result of being struck by lightning and in a coma for a few days, he knows, but that doesn’t mean he has to like it.
But what he does like is the smell of Eddie’s sheets, the pictures of him and Eddie and Chris on Eddie’s bedroom walls. He likes the feeling of Eddie’s arms around him in the middle of the night, making sure that he’s okay and breathing.
“Christopher.” Eddie’s voice hisses through the crack in the bedroom door. “I told you not to bother him.”
--
Or, Buck recovers and doesn't quite realize what he means to others.- Language:

Summary
“Woah!”
He grips the yellow collar of that shirt, dragging Chris away from the roaring current and to his chest. Once they’re safe and secure in the center of the truck, he lets himself breathe.
“Ok,” Buck chokes. “We’re just gonna sit like this for a while, alright?”
Christopher nods, holding him just as tight. “Sounds good.”
OR
Buck catches Chris before he falls into the water. Now, it's up to him to get them through the carnage of the tsunami and back to his father. At any cost.

the devil's in the details, but you've got a friend in me by buckasagirl

Summary
Now that he has one, Buck has realized that he’s never had a best friend before. Not until Eddie. Naturally, he gets a little weird about the whole thing. But who can blame him really? He’s never done this before.
Buck (Work): come over
Eddie Diaz: Can’t, I’m busy.
Buck (Work): do you hate me
Eddie Diaz: No
Buck (Work): why do you hate me
Buck (Work): why do youh ate me
Eddie Diaz: I don’t hate you
Buck (Work): whatever
Eddie Diaz: I’ll come over after.
Buck (Work): yay :)
Or, for years, Buck has jokingly texted Eddie like a crazy possessive girlfriend and he's never actually meant it, so why does it feel so real when Eddie starts to spend time with Tommy?

Pitch a Friend by ingberry

Summary
Pitch-a-friend night is a bonkers concept.
There’s something genuinely horrifying about having your best friend who knows every single humiliating thing you’ve ever done hold a PowerPoint presentation about you at a bar. Let alone with the goal to convince people to date you. Henry has no explanation for why he’s here, except his best friend is Pez, and he supposes that’s explanation enough.
Or the one where Alex and Henry are introduced to each other through PowerPoint presentations.

Summary
"Come on, Buck. Let it out. I hate this, too. I hate leaving you. Tell me how much you hate it. Yell at me, Buck. Come on, yell at me,” he begs.
Buck snaps. He pushes off the couch and crowds into Eddie’s space.
“Is this what you wanted?” He spits, pushing hard enough against Eddie’s chest that he takes a step backwards. “Hmm? You want me to lose it on you?”
Or, Eddie cannot handle Buck pretending to be fine about his move to Texas. He, in fact, refuses to let him.

“Bye,” Eddie mumbles distantly, and when Buck finally manages to open his eyes again, Eddie is halfway out the door already.
Puzzled, he just stands there, listens to the slam of the door and the starting of the truck outside, his mind spinning and his lips still tingling.
Eddie has just kissed him. Actually kissed him, like it was the most normal, casual thing in the world, like this was what they always do, a routine they follow, a dance they’ve learned.
Except it’s none of that.,or the one where Eddie and Buck live together, and things get out of hand.
,or the accidental kiss fic.

Maddie went quiet for a moment, looking at him not with pity, but instead with empathy, and shared sadness. “So. What did you find, then?”

“Hey,” Buck whines, resting his head on Eddie’s shoulder. “We’ve got a kid at home, okay. I gotta watch my language.”
Eddie almost chokes on his own tongue. We’ve got a kid at home. Jesus fucking Christ. He’s going to order an Uber and then throw himself in front of it.

Summary
Because Buck's scent is giving him a heady feeling from satisfying a desire he never knew - or maybe was never able to admit - he had.
Some other omegas he's met understood it, the need to be an individual, the need to push their secondary gender to the side and stand on their own in this world. But reality is they can't get everything they need from each other or even from some betas.
Eddie had ignored it since he presented, though. He was good at it. Out of all the omegas he’s met, he’s probably one of the ones who’s the most successful pushing their secondary nature to the side.
But now that his walls are down, now that he’s in love, he can admit that it feels right, having an alpha by his side, and it’s not even about the sexual parts of having an alpha.
