Summary
For the past three Valentine’s Days, Eddie and Buck have been trading off taking their daughter on a date instead of each other. They celebrate together when they have time, happy to show their affections through little gestures and gifts rather than a big, planned out evening. Because this is so much better.
The idea had been Eddie’s. When Isabella was two, Buck had been distraught over the idea of leaving her with Tia Pepa while he and Eddie went out to dinner. So much so that they’d almost skipped it altogether (until they’d been forced out the door and instructed to “spend some alone time together or else”—Eddie knew better than to argue). Later that night, with Buck fast asleep next to him, Eddie came up with the brilliant plan of organizing a date for Buck and Bella the following Valentine’s Day.
For Valentine's Day, Buck and Eddie trade off taking their daughter on dates :)

Summary
In a fit of insanity, or jealousy, or maybe he’s just thinking with his dick, Eddie takes off his own hat, grabs Buck’s, then puts Buck’s on. His eyes flit around the room, and most people seem to turn away after that. There. Settled.
“What’s that about?” Buck asks.
“You wanna be a cowboy but you don’t know the hat rule?”
“No.” Buck crosses his arms and tosses Eddie a lopsided smile. “Tell me the rule.”
Sometimes you see your best friend ride a mechanical bull in his stupid mirrorball cowboy hat and the dam breaks. Sometimes you go to Nashville and have to tell your best friend you’re in love with him.

Summary
“Check it out.”
“Why me?!” Buck stares at Eddie, projecting indignance as much as he can through the darkness.
“Big, strong men check out scary noises,” Eddie reasons, still only half-conscious. He wraps himself around Buck’s bicep and drops his head to Buck’s shoulder.
“You’re just as big and strong as I am.”
Eddie shakes his head. “Two inches and twenty pounds. You go, I need my beauty sleep,” he says, lying back down.
The Buckley-Diaz family deal with a(n adorable) home intruder.

Summary
“Dad?”
“Yeah?”
“Can you stop being such a loser?”
He blinks a few times and turns to look at his son with raised eyebrows. Chris, who is wholly unimpressed, eyes him with practiced teenage irritation.
“Excuse me?” Eddie asks.
“You look so mad that Buck is talking to Tia Sofia.”
“I’m not mad,” Eddie insists. “I’m fine. I’m eating my churro.”
Everyone in the Diaz family loves Buck, but Eddie misses being the center of Buck's attention. He is super normal and subtle about it and Chris is soooo wrong to call him a loser. For sure. Definitely.

Summary
“How come you’re still awake?” Buck asks, antsy. He pulls at a loose thread inside one pocket with pinched fingers, rapidly picking apart the stitching. Better to unravel that than eight years of friendship all because said friend’s shorts have ridden up agonizingly at the thigh.
“I was waiting for you to get back. You’re kind of early, though.” Eddie’s eyes are tracked to the TV, but they dart over at Buck when he asks, “You strike out with Dixie?”
Which… Buck doesn’t even know where to start. He desperately needs to buy a vowel.
“Huh? Why—what—did I miss a text?”
Eddie, sat cross-legged on top of pearly-white cotton sheets, a vision so soft it’s making Buck dizzy, has the audacity to look puzzled. “Not from me. Why?”
or: Eddie leaves a light on for Buck.

Summary
“That right there? Pure force. You could, like…hold someone down without any trouble.”
It slipped out before he could think too hard about it, and immediately he felt the air shift. Buck regretted saying these words out loud to a degree. It was one thing to think like this about your best friend and enjoy looking at him during a workout, but saying these words out loud to said best friend’s face? A totally different thing. Where was the rewind button when you needed it?
Eddie didn’t move, didn’t even flinch. He just stared at Buck, his expression unreadable.
Buck laughed, trying his hardest to chase away the moment. “I mean, not that you’d…uh…hold me down or anything.” His cheeks started to burn. God, he sounded absolutely ridiculous.
Eddie’s mouth curved, slow and deliberately, into something that wasn’t quite a smile. “You sound awfully sure of yourself.”

Summary
“Maybe you should try casual. Date a friend who would still be your friend after you break up,” Buck says, and in the same breath, without thinking, “Date me.”
He snaps his mouth shut, his entire body flushing with heat. Eddie looks at him for a very, very long second. “You.”
Through the sudden panic, Buck’s mouth goes on autopilot, “No sex, just a few dates, we’ll have an amicable break up. I already know and love Christopher. And anyway, I’m a guy. So, no need to worry about you catching feelings either.”
-
Spoiler alert: it’s not casual. They don’t break up. And they have sex.

Summary
“Which do you think makes you feel most loved?”
Eddie thought for a long moment. Too long, maybe. Then he shrugged, “Honestly, Buck? I have no idea.”
Buck’s brows pinched up. “What do you mean? When have you felt the most loved?”
“Don’t make a big thing of this, Buck. Promise?”
Buck made a show of crossing his heart, brows still raised curiously.
“I’m not sure I’ve ever… really felt loved in a relationship? I’m not convinced that I know what makes me feel loved…”
OR -
After finding out that Eddie doesn't know what his love language is, Buck sets about finding out for him. He begins a five week experiment, one for each love language, to figure out which will make Eddie feel the most loved.

Summary
Missing Chris is less of an emotion these days and more of a physical entity. He’s sure everyone can see that he’s slowly hollowing himself out, that he can’t do much of anything else.
But when Jee laughs at him trying to get his tongue to touch his nose, and Mara loops one of her arms through his to keep him from tossing the rest of his cup in the garbage, Eddie feels solid again.
Maybe he likes yellow birthday cake ice cream after all.
(or, gerrard messes with the team's schedules and eddie 'i just drove my son to flee the state' diaz is the only option to watch mara and jee-yun after school on tuesdays, which, shouldn't be a problem at all, right?)
