Summary
“Go?” Buck asks, brain still lagging behind, too overwhelmed by the sensation of softwarmeddie to process anything else at his normal speed. “Go where?”
“Home,” Eddie clarifies, his voice gentle but firm. “Our shift is over, so I’m taking you home.”
“But I drove here. My Jeep’s in the lot.”
“Yeah, and you’re still shivering like a wet chihuahua. No way I’m letting you drive like this. We’ll come back for the Jeep later.”
or: after a shift leaves buck tired and shivering, eddie takes him home.

Summary
“Oh no, you’re not,” Eddie says. “You think I’m a bitch when I’m sick? You could put several cities worth of Real Housewives to shame.”
Buck’s face is clearly torn between exasperation and amusement, probably about Eddie’s reality TV watching habits. He has been subject to more dramatic television than usual now that he’s cohabiting with Chris and Eddie full-time.
“Get in the shower,” Eddie says firmly, before he can protest.
“Not before you,” Buck says, just as firmly. He’s so fucking annoying sometimes. Eddie usually wants to kiss him about it.
or, it’s raining and eddie’s home and he might be a little in love with his best friend

Summary
By the end of Eddie’s little nighttime routine, Buck’s not made any progress. Eddie puts his hands on his hips, eyes bright with amusement as he looks at Buck.
“Need a hand with that?” he asks.
Buck blinks at him. “What?”
Eddie offers him his palm. Buck stares at it blankly for a second before Eddie’s gently prying his fingers off his toothbrush, stepping in between Buck’s legs. Buck has to look up to meet his eyes, and Eddie helps him along by tilting up his chin with one gentle finger.
or, eddie brushes buck’s teeth for him because he’s drunk. buck gets hard about it.

Summary
“I mean,” Eddie backtracks hastily, “that I probably don’t—uh, that I don’t want a hook up. Just the single, uh, kiss. For research.”
“Right,” Buck nods. “For research.”
They turn back to the TV, sipping beers and spooning dessert, room quiet save for the telenovela playing. Buck, gun to his head, could not tell you who or what is on the screen right now. The brave, strong part of his brain has surrendered shamefully, white flag hoisted while the rest of his brain—stupid, stupid—hosts a skillfully imagined supercut of his best friend kissing men. It’s surprisingly new subject matter for him. What’s unsurprising is his distaste for every conjured scenario, discarding each indistinguishable stranger until the reel buffers on something more… familiar.
“Well—”
Eddie waits a patient minute for Buck to continue before asking, “Well, what?”
“I just mean—if it’s just a kiss, right.” Buck pauses. “You could, uh. You could try it with me.”
or, buck thinks kissing men and women feels pretty much the same. eddie’s not buying it. sometimes settling a bet requires kissing your best friend, a lot, for research

Summary
“You were drunk. I know it didn’t mean anything. Everything’s alright.”
Buck visibly winces. “That’s not — Eddie.”
There’s a suspended moment where Buck looks torn, standing on the edge of something, eyes fixed on the horizon to avoid looking at the drop, the precipitous canyon below. But then Buck, who can’t lie, who would tear his own chest open to a complete stranger on the street because the truth of him spills so loudly out of every jagged edge, sighs out:
“It meant something.”
There’s a ringing sound somewhere in the distance, getting closer. “What are you…” Eddie trails off.
“I wasn’t — well, I was drunk. But that wasn’t what. Wasn’t why. Not entirely, or — god.” Buck shudders in a breath, steeling himself. “I have feelings for you.” He closes his eyes. “I’m so sorry.”
~
Buck confesses his feelings. Eddie’s straight. If he spends all his time thinking about Buck and looking at Buck and wanting to be around Buck, well, that’s just being a good friend, isn’t it? He’s being so normal about this, actually.
