    Summary

    Buck would rather stab himself in the neck with a fork, thrice, than let Maddie and Eddie say a single word to each other.

    His concern is that they will become friends. Allies. Allies United Against Buck. Comrades Who Know Too Much About Buck. A terrifying, powerful joint force that simply cannot ever exist.

    He will make sure of it.

     

    Or, so that Maddie and Eddie do not ever mingle, Buck meddles.

    Summary

    “Eddie,” Buck breathes, laughing humorlessly, his voice wet and thick. “If we sat here and-- and went through the list of things I want…” his hands gesture aimlessly. “We’d-- be here all night.”

    Eddie nods, catching Buck’s eyes again. “Maybe-- we start with mine, then.”

    The space between them feels charged with static, like the second before the thunder finally rumbles.

    -----

    Eddie’s finally choosing to be better-- finally choosing joy. He just needs a push or two in the right direction, first.

    Summary

    “Do none of you care about the children? It’s a bachelor auction, and you, my friend, are a bachelor. Abracadabra, put your name on the list.”

    “I can’t,” Eddie repeats. He can’t. He cannot. “I’m not.”

    “You’re not? Since when?” Chimney frowns. “Who?”

    It’s not Eddie’s fault that, at that exact moment, Buck walks in. So it’s not his fault that he opens his mouth and says, “Buck.”

     

    Or, Eddie trips and falls into a lightly fraudulent HR-disclosed "consensual romantic relationship" with his best friend. Really, if you think about it, it's a win-win.

    Summary

    Buck is a lot. Eddie knows Buck is a lot. Buck knows Buck is a lot.

    But every single person who ever said that to Buck said it like a warning. Like a disclaimer, a heads-up, a you-should-know-what-you're-getting-into before getting too close so they can't say they weren't told.

    And Eddie has never, not once, wanted Buck to be less.

    The surplus, the overflow, the fourth tangent on a story that started somewhere else entirely — that's not the price of Buck. That is Buck. And more of Buck has only ever meant more to love, and Eddie spent enough years running on empty to know what it means when someone fills up every room they walk into so completely that Eddie is overflowing with it most days.

    "Eddie. Are you listening?"

    Eddie nods. "Gym Katie is alone at the gym and she's upset."

    Buck blinks. His mouth is still open from the sentence he was about to say, his hands still mid-gesture, and he looks genuinely thrown, like he expected to catch Eddie zoning out and instead got caught himself. Caught being heard.

    "You were listening," Buck says, a little breathlessly.

    Eddie smiles. "I'm always listening."

    Or,
    Eddie finds beauty in the mundane.

    Summary

    Now that he has one, Buck has realized that he’s never had a best friend before. Not until Eddie. Naturally, he gets a little weird about the whole thing. But who can blame him really? He’s never done this before.

    Buck (Work): come over

    Eddie Diaz: Can’t, I’m busy.

    Buck (Work): do you hate me

    Eddie Diaz: No

    Buck (Work): why do you hate me

    Buck (Work): why do youh ate me

    Eddie Diaz: I don’t hate you

    Buck (Work): whatever

    Eddie Diaz: I’ll come over after.

    Buck (Work): yay :)

     

    Or, for years, Buck has jokingly texted Eddie like a crazy possessive girlfriend and he's never actually meant it, so why does it feel so real when Eddie starts to spend time with Tommy?

    Summary

    “I’m still a firefighter,” Eddie says adamantly. “That hasn’t changed.”

    “But you have,” Buck counters. “You used to be the one who talked sense into me. You were the guy who made me think twice. But since you got back from Texas, you’re the one being stupid and reckless. Running into fires against orders, diving off fifty foot bridges--”

    “You know, you’re such a hypocrite,” Eddie steps forward, jabbing an accusatory finger into Buck’s chest. “You would have done exactly the same thing if I hadn’t done it first.”

    OR: Buck confronts Eddie about his recent recklesness.

    Summary

    Eddie’s massage therapist is Briana. 

    He confirmed this six times: twice on the website, once during a phone call he made from his truck in the grocery store parking lot like it was a covert operation, three more times in the confirmation email.

    "Eddie?"

    He looks up.

    That is not Briana.

    The guy standing in the hallway entrance is tall and built like someone whose job description wildly undersold the physical reality. There's a birthmark above his eye that shouldn't work but does, way too much, and his scrubs fit him well. They — okay. They fit him obscenely well, actually.

    His arms. God, his arms. They're just arms. Everyone has arms.

    Eddie is suddenly, involuntarily, thinking about what it would feel like to have those arms braced on either side of him. Or around him. Or holding him down.

    Which is not a thought he's ever had about a man's arms before. He's pretty sure. He's almost sure. He's going to move on from this.

    He is going to stop looking at the arms.

    Any second now.

    Or,
    It's just a massage. Eddie can survive that. Right?

    Summary

    The boyfriend looks at Eddie's arm, looks at Eddie's face, does whatever math drunk people do when they're deciding whether a fight is worth it, and somehow arrives at the correct answer. He grabs maybe-horse-Ashley by the elbow and pulls her away, muttering something about firefighters that Buck doesn't catch because he's too busy trying not to pass out.

    Eddie turns around. His hand is still on Buck's chest.

    "Seriously?" One eyebrow up. Not angry yet, but getting there. "We've been here an hour."

    "He came at me!" Buck throws his hands up. Outraged. Innocent. An absolute victim of circumstance and nothing more. "I was just talking to her."

    "You were practically on top of her."

    "That's just how I talk to people, Eddie. I'm a leaner. It's my thing."

    Eddie stares at him for a second. His hand drops from Buck's chest and he shakes his head, turning back to the bar.

    "Get yourself a drink," Eddie says over his shoulder. "And stay out of trouble for five minutes."

    He makes it roughly eleven minutes before he does something stupid again.

    Or,
    Buck is completely normal about Eddie shoving Blue to defend his honor. Really. He is.

    Summary

    Eddie narrows his eyes at her suspiciously as she continues to sit there in amicable silence, seemingly conducting some sort of psychological warfare on him.

    “Why did you bid on me?” he blurts.

    “We never get to hang out one-on-one,” Maddie answers with a shrug. “And you’re very important to a lot of people who are very important to me. So I figured it was about time we did.”

    “You spent sixteen hundred dollars,” Eddie reminds her.

    Maddie shrugs again. “I was feeling charitable.”

    OR: Deciding it's finally time to interfere, Maddie uses the LAFD's Bachelor Auction to win herself some one-on-one time with Eddie.

    Summary

    “My mom died,” Buck says flatly, like reciting a fact he read somewhere. He adds a small shrug, as if that explains it. It doesn’t feel real. The words sit in the air, weightless and strange.

    Eddie frowns. Bobby shifts closer.

    “Are you okay?” Bobby asks gently.

    Buck blinks at him, then gives a quick nod, too fast to be convincing. “Yeah,” he says. His voice is thin, brittle. “Did you want me to start lunch? I was thinking maybe that cheesy broccoli bake.”

    Eddie’s brows knit together. “Buck…” he says carefully, voice low and steady.

    “Or chili,” Buck continues, his hands smoothing out a crease in his jacket like that’s the thing that matters. “I think we’ve got enough ground beef.”

    “Buck,” Eddie says again, firmer this time.

    Buck’s hands still. He finally looks up, meeting Eddie’s eyes.

    Oh.

    His mom died.

    or

    Margaret Buckley dies, and Buck tries to navigate grief, develops a complex relationship with apple pie, while Eddie, as always, is there.

    Summary

    Christopher peered at him, his eyes bigger through his lenses. “Why?”

    Buck nearly choked. “Why? Why… what? I mean, I’m bisexual, if that’s what you’re—”

    “Oh, no.” Christopher shook his head, “I just meant, if you’re dating men, why aren’t you dating Dad?” Which simply did not help Buck’s choking problem.

    Buck really, truly had never pictured Eddie’s son asking him these questions, specifically why he wasn’t dating Eddie.

    “Uh— your Dad isn’t— we’re not—”

    “Oh.” A pause.

    “I don’t want you to date Dad.”

    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

    And here’s the thing. If Buck was paying just a little more attention, he probably would’ve clocked what the pain in his middle meant a lot sooner. It wouldn’t change the outcome, sure, but he’d at least be ahead of the curve.

    The worst part is that it’s all rather obvious in retrospect, because the signs are all there. The flickering lights. The gymnasium air rippling and warping like heat off pavement. The dark patches on everyone’s suits and dresses.

    He should’ve seen it.

    But all he sees is Eddie. Everything else is just white noise and set dressing.

    Or: Buck's never been to prom.

    Eddie flipped the postcard one last time, reading over the words he’d inked into the paper. His thumb brushed along the corner as he slipped the card into the slot.

     

    Hey Buck,

     

    I’m drunk in Texas and this is still the only address I know by heart. I miss you.

     

    Yours,

     

    E.D.

    There was something…tense…as he continued reading. Freddie followed Tuck into the back of the ambulance, holding tight to his hand, tears streaming down his face telling Tuck “don’t ever do that again, okay?”

    That was when the atmosphere started to shift, and Eddie started to realize he wasn’t just reading a story about a house fire.

    It was almost…romantic?

    Summary

    He doesn’t want to go. There’s so much here for him—so much to fight for, but he’s been fighting for so long, and there’s only so much he can do when he’s pinned and bleeding steadily. There’s not much to fight anymore except God, and God’s seemingly made a choice.

    And, just as Buck was finally starting to understand, too.

    Sniffing, he asks, voice cracking, “Eddie?”

    He’s scared. There’ve been so many close calls, but not quite as close as this, and he’s terrified, but there’s too much to say. Too much on the line. He can’t let the fear keep him quiet anymore. He’s wasted so much time on being afraid, and now he’s run out, and he just—

    He needs Eddie to know.

    --

    or, Buck's dying.

    Summary

    Buck runs, and Eddie follows.

    -----

    It’s been over two months of chasing Buck across the country, from state to state to state, following a trail he suspects Buck doesn’t realize he’s dropping breadcrumbs on. If he did, Eddie worries he’d stop sending the postcards, and they’re his only clues. Buck left his phone in his apartment back in Los Angeles. If he’s gotten a new one, he hasn’t shared the number with anyone—not Maddie, not Chris, and certainly not Eddie.

    So Eddie lays in a too-soft bed in a too-small cabin in the middle of bumfuck Nebraska, the first grey light of dawn creeping its fingers past the dusky pink curtains, and reads the postcard again. He knows what it says by heart, but it makes him feel a little less alone to hear Buck’s voice in his head.
