    Summary

    “I just don’t see what the big deal is,” Chimney says, joining them at the table. “Why don’t you just go on the trip, Buck? Take Eddie. We can get your shifts covered, it’s, what—three nights?”

    “The big deal,” Buck says in exasperation, slamming his fork down, “is that it’s a couples retreat. For couples.”

    “And?” Chimney raises his eyebrows, still not buying it.

    “And I entered the giveaway when Tommy and I were still together!” Buck snaps. ”I don’t want t-to—it would just feel weird, okay? It’s supposed to be all—like, romantic. Flower petals on the bed and stuff.”

    Buck and Eddie take a romantic getaway. Platonically.

    Summary

    Chris picks up his fork, looks Buck in the eye, and stabs the fork through one of the smiley face’s pancake eyes.

    “Oh, wow,” Buck flinches. “Okay.”

    “Now he’s winking!” Jee giggles.

    “Yeah,” Chris nods. “He probably did something dumb like jump out of a second-storey house and land face-first on a fork.”

     

    Or, Buck gets hurt, Chris gets angry, and Jee just wants to play ponies. The answer lies in a pinkie promise. Eddie doesn't get it, but he's happy to be involved.

    Summary

    Bit by bit, Buck stopped.

    It began with the little things. First, he stopped checking his phone when he woke up. He used to do it everyday. He’d check for notifications on Chimney’s instagram, or maybe a new message from the 118 group chat. It wasn’t that anyone other than him texted at one in the morning, but sometimes he’d sleep past one of Cap’s old-timey GIFs or whatever.

    Sometimes, Athena would text and greet him good morning. And a few weeks into knowing him, Chris would send a morning message begging for help, normally because Eddie was trying to make pancakes again.

    So, with everything going on, Buck always made it a point that the moment his eyes opened, he would check his phone.

    Until the first week after the lawsuit, and for the seventh day in a row, there wasn’t anything there except a pitfall in Buck’s stomach.

    Nothing.

    Never.

    Not even a quick ‘hello’.

    So, Buck ceased checking his phone. After all, why did he even need to?

    Summary

    Maybe Buck was right, this felt great. Maybe all Eddie needed was a night out at a bar to get his head straight. Buck.

    “I’m gonna call Buck,” Eddie told Adriana, his words slurred drunkenly.

    “Your hot firefighter friend?” She asked, a smile on her face.

    “My hot firefighter BEST friend,” replied Eddie loudly, not realizing Buck had already picked up the call.

    OR

    Eddie gets drunk at a bar with Adriana and everything starts to change.

    Summary

    Fuck.

    Buck scrubs a hand down his face. He’s got no idea what he’s supposed to do here.

    He knows what his parents are like. He has his own childhood to draw from, and Isaac doesn't deserve that. He deserves to grow up surrounded by love, and if nothing else, Buck can give him that.

    But Buck is also a twenty-six year old probationary firefighter, living in his girlfriend’s apartment while she travels the world. He’s not exactly in a position to look after a kid.

    “Okay.” It comes out in a rush of air. “I’m gonna come get you."

    Summary

    “I have Buck in my Will,” Eddie blurts suddenly, startling Bobby a little. “If something were to happen to me on a call, he becomes Chris’ guardian.”

    Bobby is glad they’re currently stuck in traffic because he’s pretty sure they would have needed to pull over so he could fully absorb the information Eddie has just offered him.

    “Wow,” Bobby manages after grasping at words uselessly for a full minute.

    Eddie laughs, but it sounds a little flat. He massages his temples. “This was not how I was expecting to spend my morning.”

    Bobby huffs out a laugh, accelerating gently when the gridlock finally creeps forward. He pulls onto another side street, taking the long way towards the hospital. It would be faster than using any more of the main roads.

    “When did you decide that?” Bobby asks finally. Eddie wasn't bringing it up because he enjoys sharing information; he was a private person. He's brought it up because he wants to talk about it, and he trusts Bobby with this.

     

    ____

    Or the one where I burn Buck's loft down with Buck inside!

    When Buck wakes up cold, scared, and alone all he wants is Bobby (his dad).

    Summary

    He wants to tell Eddie everything, he wants to tell him that he’s struggling, that he can’t sleep without being plagued with nightmare after nightmare. He wants to tell him that the worst ones are when Eddie’s lying on the road reaching out towards him and he’s just stuck watching, when he can taste Eddie’s blood on his tongue, feel it splattered across his face. He wants to tell him that when he wakes up the blood is still there, so he throws up in the toilet until the taste of copper is forced out of his mouth and he washes his face 10 times until he’s sure there’s not a drop of blood left.

    He just wants to tell him a random fact that he found out at 3 am when he went down the rabbit hole starting with the world's tallest skyscrapers and ending with the knowledge that most elevator close door buttons don’t actually work. But now he looks at Eddie and he just can’t help but think that he’s being a burden, that Eddie got shot and shouldn’t have to deal with him too.

    So instead, he runs.

     

    (Or Buck has years of unresolved trauma and can't sleep, so he tries to literally outrun his demons instead. Luckily Eddie is there to pick up the pieces when he finally breaks.)

    Summary

    Eddie didn’t know what to expect when they got dispatched to the call, but it certainly wasn’t this.

    The man was bound, but the intricacy by which he was tied up was like nothing Eddie had seen before. It wasn’t just his wrists, but his arms were secured behind him, attaching him to the frame of the bed by something Eddie couldn’t quite see from where he stood.

    It wasn’t a rushed job, from the little that Eddie could tell was going on. This was precise work—secure and firm in its structures. Their victim was completely bound. Immobile.

    Something far back in his mind—shaped vaguely like a door, cracked open just enough to make Eddie suck in a breath and slam it back shut.

    or, when Eddie learns something new about himself, it forces him to begin untangling a web of desires he's kept hidden for a long time.

    In this universe, the sniper wasn't a miffed former police officer. It was someone specifically gunning for Eddie because of his last tour in Afghanistan.

    Summary

    Adriana doesn’t tell their parents that she’s going to LA. She doesn’t tell Eddie, either—or ask, for that matter.

    She does ask Chris, and he thinks it’s a good idea—says as much, on the phone, and doesn’t say much else.

    “Buck will probably be hovering,” is what Chris does volunteer.

    It still surprises her when the man who opens the door is not Eddie. It’s—Captain America, is the thing that actually comes to mind—a man close to a foot taller than she is, if not more than that, with blond curls and broad shoulders, and he’s got a question in his very blue eyes that’s probably less friendly than the one he actually asks her.

    “Uh,” he says. “Can I help you?”

    Or: Adriana arrives in LA. Maddie has been here the whole time.

    Summary

    “Jim!” Eddie calls out as Jim exits his car and walks over in their direction. “We heard your address on the scanner. How’d the fire start?”

    As Jim watches Eddie and Buck pull additional protective gear on, he wonders if it’s worth lying.

    Yeah, probably not.

    “I, uh, think it was probably the lab,” he says hesitantly. “The fire would have started in the garage.”

    “You have a lab in your garage?” Buck gives him a strange look. “I didn’t know you were a scientist.”

    Jim winces.

    “Not that kind of lab.”

    Summary

    It’s not even three minutes after he switches off the light that the door bangs open. Bangs open, not even an attempt at quietness.

    “Eddie,” Buck stage-whispers, “you’re not asleep yet, right?”

    “No,” Eddie grumbles, flicking on the light when Buck bumps heavily into something and swears. “But I could’ve been.”

    “Eddie, Eddie,” Buck sings breathily, shucking his trousers and clambering onto the bed in just his boxers and a button-down shirt. “Why is there only one bed?”

    “Um,” Eddie draws the comforter up to his chin, as if he can shield himself from the half-naked—oh, three-quarters naked, he’s pulling off his shirt now—Buck with just a duvet.

     

    or, sharing a bed with your best friend is fine, usually, except for when your best friend is the particular combination of tipsy and stoned at his sister’s wedding that transforms him into 200 pounds of cuddlebug

    Summary

    “Oh. You’re—uh.” Should he—say something? Why would he say something, though. Just because this isn’t something they do… Eddie’s clearly fine with this, initiating this, and Buck—there’s never a time Buck doesn’t want this, want this bad. So why would he say you have a bed right there and come off as a dick when they’re both perfectly fine with this.

    Or, worse in ways that are both hysterical and heartbreaking, come off as vaguely homophobic or make Eddie uncomfortable about the way he’s currently spooning Buck like he’s been doing it all his life.

    He settles for a lighthearted, “Are you drunk?”

    Eddie sighs sleepily, breath tickling Buck’s neck. “Yeah. Kinda.”

     

    or, getting little-spooned by his drunk best friend was not on buck's maid-of-honour checklist, but. it's happening

    Summary

    Buck goes missing, and Eddie goes crazy.

    -----

    Eddie came home expecting to step right into Buck’s open arms, to hear the soft gravel of his laugh, to finally fucking breathe for the first time since Chris walked out the front door and Buck held Eddie up with a hand on his shoulder. He expected to show up at Bobby and Athena’s new house tomorrow night for a welcome back party he wasn’t supposed to know of but had already heard about from Buck, Ravi (by accident, since he assumed Buck had already told Eddie), and Denny via Chris (he wanted to ask Chris what games he should bring over). He expected life to go back to normal, to how it used to be.

    Instead, all he has is a pit in his stomach and a lump in his throat and a heart beating too fast, even while he’s standing still. He doesn’t panic, but for Buck, he might take up the habit.

    “He’ll be okay, Eddie,” Bobby says, and when Eddie just hums noncommittally, he adds, “When have you ever not known him to be fine?”

    “You want a list?” Eddie jokes, though he actually does have one, and each bullet point carries an addendum that says Eddie wasn’t there to keep him safe.

    Summary

    It wasn’t that Buck hated his birthday.

    At least, that was what he told himself.

    He just never had much of a reason to celebrate. Instead, it became another day for him to drag himself through and hope he made it to the other side unscathed. With his luck, it was always easier said than done.

    Somehow, every time his birthday rolled around, the universe decided he needed a slap to the face. A reality check. He never fought back and, after a while, came to accept that his birthday would never be anything other than a painful memory.

    So, no, he didn’t hate his birthday.

    His birthday hated him.

    Summary

    Athena just looks grieved. “Why, then,” she says, “did you get military-grade handcuffs? Were the pink fuzzy ones not macho enough for you?”

    Her tone drips with derision. She’s absolutely going home to tell Bobby all about this. “We kept, uh, breaking the pink fuzzy ones,” Eddie admits, and then, “Buck, don’t preen.”

    “I’m not preening,” Buck says, probably definitely preening, but like it’s his fault, okay? It’s good to know the bicep curls are working.
