    Summary

    In Andrew's defense, blind dates are terrible and almost all of Kevin's friends are even worse.

    Nine times out of ten, calling in a favor to get Aaron to switch and tank it for him would be fine.

    Unfortunately, Andrew found number ten.

    Summary

    “I need you to propose to me.”

    Eddie nearly missed the mug and poured coffee on his own hand.

    “What?” he asked, his mouth gone dry.

    “I. Need you. To propose to me,” Buck repeated, as if saying it slower would somehow make it make sense.

    “Propose…propose marriage?”

    “No, a new business venture. Yes, propose marriage, Eddie, come on,” Buck scoffed.

    “Right, yeah, okay,” Eddie shrugged, setting down his coffee mug with a loud thunk. He turned to face Buck fully, leveling him with a wide-eyed look. “Again, I have to ask. What?”

    or: Buck asks his best friend Eddie to propose to him in public to see if they can score a free dessert. Eddie definitely doesn’t propose to him for real, because that would be insane. Right?

    Summary

    It’s a disaster. There’s nothing for Eddie to do now but rip the Bandaid off.

    “I’vebeenlookingatyourGooglehistory,” he says, all at once.

    Buck blinks. “You’ve been what?”

    “I’ve been—” Eddie breaks off with a huff, and then forces his eyes back up to Buck’s. “I went to the Google home page,” he starts again. “To search the thing about the coupling nut. But then when I clicked on the search bar, the recent history was not mine, because—”

    A look of comprehension has begun to dawn on Buck’s face, suddenly.

    “Because I was logged in on the iPad,” he says slowly.

    - in other words: the slow-moving catastrophe of buck and eddie sharing a search history.

    Summary

    Eddie’s eyes were studying Buck’s face, and whatever he saw there made him say, “there’s no way you can keep this from Maddie.”

    “No,” Buck folded immediately. “I could try, but . . .”

    Eddie’s mouth quirked into a smile, showing a dimple, and it was literally heroic of Buck to leave the house with all that going on. “Tell Maddie,” Eddie offered. “Swear her to secrecy. And we’ll just keep it to ourselves until Chris is back on Friday.”

    He was so smart. His best friend was so smart and also wanted to kiss him and also said they were practically engaged.

    “Good plan,” said Buck, fighting gravity to continue his way out the door. “It’s just one week. How hard could it be?”

    ---

    On a very normal Sunday, Buck and Eddie confess their feelings for each other; what follows is a week of the least normal behavior the LAFD has ever seen.
