    Summary

    It’s not Buck’s fault that he hasn’t stopped running since the day he ran from Hershey and never went back.

    It’s not Buck’s fault that the only way Eddie knows how to handle the overwhelming-ness of his stupidly loving heart is to treat Buck like he treats Christopher - as someone to provide for, to look after, to dote on.

    It’s not Buck’s fault that the lightning hit him, and it’s not his fault that he died for three minutes and seventeen seconds, and it’s not his fault that when he first wakes up, he looks at Eddie like Eddie is a ghost and Buck will never be able to touch him again.

    Which he doesn’t, anyway. Touch him, that is. Not like he used to.

    OR

    Buck is doing just fine after getting hit by lightning until he's not. Eddie's there to help pick up all of the pieces, except they have sharp edges and all they do is hurt.

    Summary

    “Bless your heart, you really are new to this. Good for y’all, though. I’m glad this ship is… accepting.”

    Eddie straightens in his seat. “What does that mean?”

    All four wince as a young man taps the microphone onstage.

    “Testing, testing,” he jokes. “Welcome to the Cruisin’ Couples Trivia Tournament!”

    The patrons around them cheer. Eddie digs his nails into Buck’s skin harsh enough to make him wince.

    “Oh,” he breathes. “This is for couples.”

    or: After getting dumped, Buck is left with two tickets to a weeklong cruise. Eddie steps in to support a friend in need, but complications arise when his friend becomes his fake husband. All's fair in love, war, and trivia.

    Summary

    When Buck jumps off a bridge to save a little girl during a call he winds up with a month off work and a slew of people coming to the Diaz house to take care of him and force him to rest. He's not going to admit how nice it is.

    He would also like to point out- for the record- that he technically jumped out of a bus. It just so happened to be hanging halfway off a bridge at the time.

    Summary

    "Guys, look what I found in my dumpster when I took my trash out before work."

    Buck holds his phone out proudly, a photo of quite possibly the ugliest cat Eddie has ever seen gracing the screen.

    "Jesus!" Chim exclaims, recoiling a little. "Buck, tell me you didn't pull a dead cat out of the trash."

    "He's not dead!" Buck insists, offended.

    "Are you sure?" Chim asks doubtfully.

    Or: Buck rescues a lovable disaster of a cat, who rescues him in return.

    Summary

    Eddie shrugs. “Christopher mentioned to Daniel that Buck and I are partners. I mean, sure, it’s a little weird that she invited him over as well, but—”

    “Partners,” Hen interrupts, “like work partners?”

    Eddie and Buck glance at each other. “Uh, yeah?” Eddie says. “What other type of partner?”

    Hen stares at them for a moment, before she bursts out laughing. “You dumbasses. She thinks you’re together.”

     

    or, Eddie joins the PTA.
