Work Text:
A working list of the different ways in which Buck and Eddie show their love for each other:
1. When Buck intentionally draws closer to Eddie when they fall into step with each other, and Buck turns so that his arm bumps into Eddie's arm as they walk side by side
2. When Buck dives right in when they respond at a scene, knowing that if anything, the entire team has his back but most importantly, Eddie's there too and Eddie's definitely got him
3. The way Eddie reaches for Buck's shoulder and his thumb rests on Buck's bare skin, just above the neckline of his t-shirt and all Buck can do is to breathe as Eddie keeps his thumb right there
4. When Eddie stands next to Buck and he's just leaning in with his head tilted towards Buck and they're close enough to touch but not quite
5. The way Buck taps Eddie lightly on his back as he passes but his hand always lingers for a touch too long as he goes past
6. When Buck looks at Eddie and he waits for him to meet his gaze before he can look away
7. The way Eddie turns his head when he comes in for an embrace with Buck and he's content just to rest there in Buck's arms for a little while
8. The way Eddie trusts Buck with Christopher and names him as his legal guardian if anything happens to him
9. When Buck doesn't refuse when Eddie tells him about it
10. The way Buck leans into Eddie's touch whenever he places his hand on him
11. The way Buck's eyes wouldn't leave Eddie's silhouette if Eddie's going ahead of him
12. The way Buck looks at Eddie, eyes soft when he thinks no one is watching
13. The way Eddie's eyes shine as he looks at Buck
14. When Eddie's shot and Buck's heart clenches and it feels like he's never going to be able to breathe again until he knows that he's going to be okay he's going to make it out again he's going to see him again and he's just holding on to Eddie cupping his neck and hoping against hope that everything will be okay and he'll come back to Buck again
15. The way Eddie's eyes light up when he sees Buck after he wakes up at the hospital and says 'Hey Buck' and it's as if the weight of the world has been lifted from Buck's shoulders
16. To be added as they continue to make more memories together
