    Summary

    It starts with a headache.

    It starts with a headache. And it ends as he falls to the ground, lock jawed, the world fading away.

    . . .

    Look.

    Buck knows as well as anyone the dangers of repeated concussions. He was a college football player; he’s followed the development of the concussion stories as they’ve come out. And yeah, between his childhood recklessness (which has bled into adult recklessness), a few workplace incidents including a notable day with a hoarder house and a bowling ball, and his general affinity for being caught in unfortunate positions, he figures he’s had his fair share of concussions. But they’ve never really been in such close succession that he’s worried about them.

    Not really.

    Summary

    Eddie thought it would be easier.
    He has Buck now, and he's never letting him go. But dating is- complicated in a way it wasn't supposed to be.
    First, there's the fact that they don't know who they're supposed to tell. They don't know if they should tell Bobby or Chim or Maddie or- god, Chris. Eddie doesn't know how to act now- doesn't know when he's supposed to kiss Buck and when he's just supposed to pat his back and give him a hopeful smile.
    They've been friends for so long the shift between them it's almost invisible, a step forward so awkwardly taken, full of fear and repression and nervousness. Eddie hates that dating Buck involves so much- thinking.
    But it's worth it.

     

    Or, Eddie has spent so long thinking about kissing Buck that he never dared to imagine what would happen after. Now, he gets to keep secrets, come out to everyone, dance in the kitchen, deal with the consequences of dating a coworker, come up with petnames, face years of fear and repression, and slowly learn to go from having a best friend to having a boyfriend. At least he gets to do it with Buck.

    Summary

    “I’m not leaving you, Buck.” Eddie says with a tired sigh, like he’s struggling with the weight of the world and Buck’s the one who put it there. “Just switching jobs, that’s all.”

    That’s all?, Buck wants to scream, because every relationship he has is tied to the job in some way, and first Maddie left, and then it was Chimney, and now it’s Eddie. But he doesn’t scream, because that would be a little bit too tragic, even for him, and nods instead. Bites his tongue. Pretends that he isn't falling apart where he's stood.

    ***

    Or, set post season 5A, where Buck is alone, and angry, and exhausted, but mostly terrified that everyone he loves is slowly slipping away from him.

    **rated mature for heavy themes**

    Summary

    There’s mud on his hands. There’s mud on his hands and he has to dig deeper, quicker, because Eddie is forty feet beneath him and surely he can’t breathe because the well is gone and Eddie is gone and Buck can’t follow him.

    “Eddie,” his throat feels raw, the words wrong to his ears, “Eddie.”

    “Yeah,” Eddie says, holding onto him, “I'm right here, Buck, I’m right here.”

    “I can’t—” Buck breaks off, his trembling, dirty hand in the air and Eddie must understand because he takes Buck's hand without question and pulls it to his chest, right over his heart.

    {or five times Buck needs to feel Eddie's heartbeat and the one time Eddie needs to feel his}
