    Summary

    "You don't see the problem," Buck says finally, in as measured a tone as he can, "with getting married to me. For tax purposes."

    "Not just tax purposes," Eddie says indignantly, like that's Buck's main sticking point. Buck finally turns his head and looks at him. Still stupid. Still beautiful, in a light-colored Henley that makes his skin glow, his long fingers curled around the neck of the beer bottle resting on his knee. His big brown eyes and the encouraging little smile on his lips, like he's offering Buck a special treat, instead of a lifelong fucking commitment of platonic marriage. Buck wants to kiss him, or maybe strangle him. Either one would serve Eddie right.

    Or: Eddie proposes marriage (platonically). Buck spirals.

    Summary

    The thing about Eddie and Hen bonding is that he might not want to admit it, but Buck’s jealous. He’s achingly and overwhelmingly jealous. He’s jealous of Eddie.

    He knows how it sounds, he knows what people think. He hasn’t even tried to raise it with Maddie, because she’d laugh at him and she wouldn’t believe him, and she’d ask if he was sure he wasn’t jealous of Hen. It really isn’t that.

    Hen is special. Hen’s always been there for him, always been a steady and constant support like no one else.

    The thing that no one seems to understand is that he lost Eddie months ago.

     

    -----

     

    Episode tag to 9x5 Día de los Muertos, in which Buck really truly is jealous of Eddie, not Hen.

    Summary

    Eddie Diaz does not get sick. At worst he experiences mild allergies from time to time. So when he wakes up with a scratchy throat and a pounding headache, he does what any reasonable person would do: he doesn't mention it and he goes to work.

    Summary

    "What are you doing here?"

    "I could ask you the same thing," Eddie retorts, setting his hands on his hips as his posture stiffens. "I thought you told Chris you were going home."

    "Well I decided not to," Buck answers dismissively. "Is that a problem?"

    Why should Eddie care if he went home or not? It's not like home is with Eddie anymore. It's not like Eddie even wanted him around.

    Summary

    "Can't he read?" Karen asks, sounding genuinely concerned.

    "Of course he can read," Eddie shoots back defensively. "Buck can do anything. He's so smart. He knows about every single thing that's ever happened." He doesn't care if that's an exaggeration, he has to do Buck's extensive knowledge of obscure subjects justice. "Sometimes I stay up at night just to listen to him talk," Eddie admits dreamily.

    "Oh, Eddie." Karen's face scrunches up and her eyes well as she presses a hand over her heart. "That's so sweet. You two are going to be the cutest couple."

    "I know," Eddie sniffs and wipes at his eyes. "Buck is going to be the best boyfriend in the whole world."

    Summary

    "I - uh," Buck stammers. "Sorry, I'm a little nervous."

    "Yeah," Eddie huffs softly. "Me too."

    "I think this is my last first kiss," Buck admits, not looking away from Eddie for even a second. The deep, familiar brown of his eyes is grounding.

    "I know it's mine," Eddie says quietly.

    or, one night a quiet conversation on Eddie's couch leads Buck and Eddie in a direction neither of them anticipate - especially Buck.

    Summary

    Buck shakes his head, a small, childish feeling in his chest. "I don't want to sleep."

    Eddie's eyebrow goes up. There is a difference between not wanting to and not being able to, and Buck didn't notice he was using the first one. "You don't have to stay up or he will disappear, you know? Bobby will still be here tomorrow."

    "But you won't," Buck admits, the response out of his mouth before his brain has time to fully notice what he is about to say and reminds him why it's a bad idea to tell Eddie something like that.

     

    Buck and Eddie only have a few hours together before Eddie's flight back to El Paso. It's time to move forward.

    Summary

    He fans the pages out in front of him. There seem to be a lot of them for a field trip, but—

    ‘ADOPTION REQUEST’ and ‘ADOPTION AGREEMENT’ are written at the tops of the pages.

    Buck looks at Chris, then at Eddie. The two of them are wearing matching smiles, both bright and warm and loving.

    Chris asks Buck to adopt him on Father's Day.

    Summary

    “Don’t say it like that!”

    “Like what?”

    “Like we’re best friends.”

    “We are best friends, Buck,” Eddie huffs. There’s a little edge in his voice, like that’s a threat.

    “Eddie, you ruined my life.”

    Buck and Eddie handle Eddie's move to Texas as well as can be expected. That is to say, really fucking badly.

    Summary

    “I made you leaving about myself, I made Bobby’s death about myself. Hell, I even managed to make your goodbye party about myself with my transfer request.”

    “Don’t.”

    “Don’t what, Eddie?” Buck challenges. “Ninety-seven acts, right? You’re just the latest one.”

    He aimed right for Eddie’s heart and he knows it. But, see, there’d been a moment at the building collapse, when Buck was being unstrapped from his harness, that he and Eddie looked at one another. Only at one another. Then that thing in Buck’s chest, that warm feeling that has only ever been associated with Eddie, finally told Buck its name. And it hurts too much to be in love with Eddie and not even be the reason he stays.

    Buck and Eddie finally fight about it, but this time they say what they mean. (8x18 coda - dw tim, i'll finish ur storylines for u)

    Summary

    Steve’s used to days where it hurts too much to get out of bed. The days where he can’t even open his eyes, because despite his curtains being closed the room is still too bright. He’s used to spending the day trying to focus on anything other than the throbbing pain behind his eyes. He’s not used to someone being there with him on these days.

    -----------

    Steve is suffering and Eddie is doing his best to take care of him.

    -----------

    I'm apologizing now for the sadness, I needed to get this out of my head.

    “That’s it?” Buck laughs. “You pulled out the big guns to ask me if I’d go to a baseball game with you?”

    “You don’t like baseball,” Eddie says.

    “I like you,” Buck reminds him.

    Buck and Eddie go to a Dodgers game and end up on the Kiss Cam.

    Summary

    “I don’t know, she’s cute. Nice.” Eddie shrugs again, and Buck has to refrain from snapping 'that’s the spirit!' He can be supportive. He can.

    He can try.

    “That’s it?” Buck tilts his head, huffing a breath that he thinks sounds enough like a chuckle.

    “I don’t know. She’s a nurse, I think. She loves kids and science, I think Chris’d really like her.”

    It only takes a second. Something in Buck cracks open and magma pours out, scorching heat that spreads and burns through every inch of his flesh. He doesn’t have time to rein it in; he scoffs against his better judgment, mumbling barely under his breath, “You gotta be fucking kidding me.”

    Or : Eddie is about to repeat past mistakes, and Buck finally snaps.

    “Champurrado,” Eddie corrects softly, putting the tray down on the coffee table. “We used to drink this with Abuela when we helped decorate her tree.”
    “Oh,” Buck breathes, blinking down at his mug. This - this is a deeply personal family tradition that Eddie has so casually included him in. Buck knows how much he’s missing Abuela, knows that this is probably helping him and Chris feel connected to her. And they’re including Buck.

    or

    Five times Eddie included Buck in his and Christopher’s family Christmas traditions plus two new ones they make together. Bonus Eddie lightly torturing Buck through blatant flirting.
