    Summary

    Shane Hollander sends a courtesy text to the wrong number.

    Ilya Rozanov answers.

    What starts as an accident turns into a habit — late-night messages, honesty, and a version of Shane that exists without an audience.

    Ilya figures out who he’s talking to long before Shane does.

    He doesn’t say anything.

    Instead, he keeps replying.

    Summary

    “What can I do to help right now?”
    Chris pulled back slightly and suddenly refused to make eye contact with Buck.
    “Um…” Chris trailed off, fidgeting.
    “Superman?”
    “Can I stay with you?”

    Or after Chris walks in on Eddie and Kim, he calls Buck instead of Helena and Ramon

    Summary

    After a pause, Eddie asked, “You ever think about just… keeping it going?”

    Buck blinked. “What, like living together forever?”

    A snort filled the air, and Eddie looked half amused and half serious. “I dunno, maybe? Something like that. I mean, look, it’s a new year, right? Anything could happen. But neither of us wanna be alone forever. So, maybe if we’re both still single in a year or whatever, we could just—” he waved a hand vaguely, like he was lassoing the future— ”make it official.”

    “Official?” he echoed, head even fuzzier now.

    Eddie’s mouth twitched. “Yeah, we could just get married, or something close enough to it."

    Buck’s heart tripped over itself.

    On New Year's Eve, Buck and Eddie made a drunken pact: if they were both still single in a year, they'd marry each other. They didn't mean to start sabotaging the other's love life to make it happen, but somewhere along the way, that's exactly what they ended up doing.

    Now the only question is... how far are they willing to take it?

    Summary

    “You and me, Diaz. If we’re both single at forty then we’re getting married.”

    “Yeah?” Eddie blinked.

    “Unless you got a problem with that,” Buck offered, a challenge was back behind his grin. Eddie loved this, he always loved this. The moments between him and Buck where they pushed each other, challenged each other, cornered the other while refusing to back down. It fueled Eddie with a giddy excitement, sparking his nerves despite the dulling effect the alcohol had on his body.

    He smirked and held out his bottle, “You’re on, Buckley.”

    ~~OR~~

    When Buck and Eddie make a pact to get married if they're both single by age forty, it takes an embarrassingly short amount of time for Eddie's thoughts to start referring to Buck as "fiancé" instead of "best friend."

    Summary

    eddie's not entirely sure he believes in getting help, at least not for himself. there's only so much healing to be had for a body torn apart by bullets, for a mind that's only half there, for a man who's been leaving pieces of himself behind all his life with nothing to take their place.

    except, as it turns out, falling apart happens in increments, and healing does, too: it happens when you gnaw a hole in your lip trying to keep quiet only to have the words escape; when you realize that the ghost you've been seeing out of the corner of your eye is yourself; when your best friend smiles, and you allow it to take your breath away.

    it happens through the smallest of things: bird feeders, and cacti, and pasta shapes.

    meanwhile, the world goes on.

    (or: the entity often affectionately referred to as the unrepression fic.)
