    Summary

    “What do you want, then?” He asks lowly, his voice still raspy from crying.

    He can feel the deep breath that Eddie takes at the question. Eddie leans forward, nosing clumsily at the skin of Buck’s cheek, then his jaw.

    “I want,” Eddie starts, and then he places his mouth where his nose had been, right where Buck’s jaw meets his neck. It startles a gasp out of Buck, causes his grip on Eddie to unintentionally tighten. “I want to not think about it for a little while.”

    Buck and Eddie have drunken, bad idea grief sex after Bobby's funeral.

    Edit: Now with a morning after scene.

    Summary

    Buck meets Isabel Diaz in a Latin supermarket before Eddie moves to LA. Only, Buck knows of Eddie as 'Edmundo' and Eddie knows Buck as 'Evan'.

     

    "I thought you were stupid hot when I first met you – which, I told Abuela by the way. Literally called after that shift and told her about my frustratingly hot new coworker. When I came to her house with you, she laughed at me and asked if you were my new coworker.”

    Eddie laughs, still a little teary.

    Summary

    He was in love with Eddie.

    He loved Eddie.

    It wasn’t just some cliché crush-on-your-best-friend kind of thing.

    It was all consuming love that was once in history described as force strong enough to build entire civilizations or to crush them into fine dust.

    A love so huge that giving up your own life to spare theirs hurts less then living in the world without your soulmate.

    ***
    Or: Almost a year after the events of 9x13 ‘Mother’s Boy’ Buck and Eddie are called as key witnesses for Bonnie and Earl’s trial in New Mexico. Buck and Eddie relive the entire thing when the prosecution reveals that they have footage of Buck’s captivity. Eddie finds out that Buck would give his own life for him and Christopher. Buck finds out that Eddie would kill for Buck. A lot of trauma with happy ending. Chapters will be uploaded daily. Mind the tags.

    Summary

    Buck tries to commit the frame to memory, wills himself not to forget the important details—Eddie on his knees in front of him, his nails seeking purchase along Buck's thighs as he drinks him down, his drawn-out gasps when Buck returns the favor.

    After, when Buck reaches out for quiet confirmation in the dark, asks him, "Good?"

    Eddie tells him, earnest and hard-won, "Everything is good with you," and Buck can bask in the illusion of a world where he almost believes it.

    Buck is trying to leave the past where it belongs. Then he wins an all-expenses-paid trip to Italy, convinces Eddie to join him, and falls headfirst into (not so) casual sex with his best friend.

    Summary

    “Hey.” Buck greets him without looking up from his screen. “How do you feel about opening a joint bank account together?”

    Eddie, who was mid-sip of his juice, chokes and almost spits it across the room. “What?”

    “Yeah, I’m thinking it’ll just be easier than, like, transferring each other money every month for rent and the shopping,” Buck continues.

    “… Right,” Eddie replies, wary. Bank accounts are a big deal—one of the only things his father taught him. Eddie has only shared a bank account with one other person, and he was married to her.

    Well, come to think of it, the situations aren’t that different. Sure, he and Buck aren’t married. But they do live together. Plus, Buck is basically another parent to his son in all the ways that matter. Maybe it does make the most sense.

    OR: The five times that Buck and Eddie navigate life of acting like a domestic married couple as roommates without actually being married, and the one time they realise they kinda are.

    Summary

    Good morning!
    Just ran out to pick up Chris but will be back soon.
    I made you breakfast, enjoy!
    I love you.
    — Eddie.

    Eddie’s handwriting is unmistakable. Buck would recognize it anywhere. Back when Chris was still in elementary school, Buck would always watch Eddie carefully pack his lunchbox the night before, adding in a little post-it note of encouragement. He would watch as Eddie wrote, ‘I love you’ and scribble a little heart next to it.

    Now, that ‘I love you’ and little heart is addressed to Buck.

    OR: After waking up alone, Buck freaks out when Eddie confesses his love through a post-it note.

    Summary

    Buck chuckles. “How about you tell me your secret and then I’ll come over?”

    Eddie’s heartbeat rises in his chest. “Do you promise?” he asks.

    “Yes, Eddie, I promise. Scout’s honor, remember?” Buck says.

    “Okay.” Eddie drunkenly giggles, then brings the phone up to his lips to whisper, “I’m gay.”

    Buck is quiet on the other line. The room goes silent. Eddie slowly blinks his eyes open, squinting to find his screen black. He taps it, but it doesn’t turn on.

    OR: Eddie sips a little too much of that go go juice and drunkenly comes out to Buck over the phone.

    Summary

    “He—He had a nightmare,” Buck says. Eddie can tell he’s tugging at his hair. “He was asleep for barely an hour, and now he won’t stop crying. The thunder scares him.”

    Before Eddie can ever answer, Theo’s cries interrupt him. His voice wails out a sad, “EDDIE!”

    Eddie pauses. “Did he just say my name?”

    On the other line, Buck’s breath hitches. Eddie pulls the comforter off himself, already springing into action to find his shoes and car keys.

    Still, Buck doesn’t reply. Theo’s sobs are even more earsplitting through the phone. “I want EDDIE!”

    “He’s—” Buck sucks in a breath. “He’s asking for you.”

    OR: Theo can’t sleep because of the storm. Buck calls Eddie and Christopher for their help.

    “...My husband here is always talking about coming to this restaurant.” Buck tells the waiter, holding his breath while waiting for Eddie’s response.

    Eddie blushes immediately, “Yeah, I just love the food…” he says, nodding. Buck’s heart skips. He thinks Eddie will leave it at that, but he adds to the lie, “See, we’re celebrating our wedding anniversary tonight.”

    (Or, Buck and Eddie keep referring to each other as husbands, it’s undoubtedly nice… They’re not together, no. It’s a best friend thing.)

    Summary

    In late 2012 when Shane has a meltdown and frantically tells them to call Lily, for the first time Yuna’s ever witnessed, Shane is coaxed out of one of them instead of just suffering through until the exhaustion wins out instead—and all by some mysterious, apparently very well attuned to Shane, 'Lily'.

    She hadn’t meant to see the number before she’d pressed it and fumbled the phone up to Shane’s ear. It was simply a byproduct of the situation, something Shane had asked for her to do.

    …Memorizing it and then texting that number to thank Lily for their help was not something she’d been asked to do. But she worries so much about Shane, and Lily is a reassurance. Not a pry for details but the simple, verifiable confirmation: he’s okay.

    Lily, on the other hand, very much enjoys being able to make oddly specific 'your mother' jokes to Shane much more often now. (And maybe the whole family piece of it, too.)

    Summary

    “I hate when you guys act like–” Chris cuts himself off with a groan.

    Buck and Eddie frown and look at each other “Like what?” 

    “Like you’re–“ he huffs in frustration.

    “What, Chris?”

    “Like you’re a married couple!” he blurts out “Like you need each other before making any major decisions regarding me just because you’re so codependent, like you… ugh, just stop! I don’t need you ganging up on me” and with that he slams the door shut.

    Teenagers are complicated. When Buck and Eddie won’t allow Chris to go to a certain party, he ends up saying something that sends them into a spiral. More so when everybody seems to agree with him.

    Summary

    Buck suffers a concussion at work, and stays with Eddie to recuperate. The intimacy of Eddie’s care brings to a head the feelings Buck has been trying to hide since Eddie came out as gay.

    When Buck’s recovery suffers a worrying setback, he finds out that maybe he isn’t the only one keeping important feelings to himself.

     

    ——————————————

    “It’s Ok, Buck. I got you. You’re Ok.”

    Eddie.

    “I dimmed the light. You can try again if you want. But only if you want, and only when you’re ready.”

    Buck took a long moment to make sense of that. Then, once he’d worked out Eddie had somehow made it less bright, he cautiously opened his eyes again.

    Better. It was better.

    This time, things were a little more in focus. He saw Eddie. Eddie’s beautiful face. Wait, he wasn’t allowed to think Eddie was beautiful. Or was he? No. He could think it. Not say it.

    That was important.

    Summary

    “She said she wasn’t worried about us breaking up.”

    Oh. Well. That was pretty definitively a thing that people said about partners who were together romantically.

    “Say something,” Buck instructed.

    “What?”

    “Anything,” Buck said, his voice wavering on the word. Which was—it was weird, right? Why was Buck so shaken by a throwaway comment?

    Or maybe the better question was why wasn’t Eddie? If either of them was going to get freaked out by the assumption that he was dating a man, it would make more sense for it to be Eddie, who was straight, and not Buck, who had, in fact, already dated men.

    “Aren’t you going to be late for your shift?”

    -----

    Buck and Eddie get shaken up by a comment from Theo’s social worker, and then by a magnitude 7 earthquake; it turns out, some disasters are better than others.

    Or, Buck is a firefighter, a brother, and responsible for a young child. He's also a musician online, but no one is supposed to know about that. Maybe more than one song is about Eddie, but no one is supposed to know about that, either.

    For nine years.
    Every year.
    The same person.

    Some years are easy.
    Some are messy.

    Summary

    To his left, a cluster of young men, barely old enough to be in here, were living their lives through their phone screens. They preened and posed, muscles straining against designer t-shirts, capturing manufactured moments of joy for an audience that wasn't here. Buck felt a surge of contempt so sharp and sudden it almost made him flinch. He’d been that young once, though his own brand of youthful idiocy had also involved running into burning buildings, not just perfecting a pout for Instagram.

    To his right, a group of older men, their faces a roadmap of past disappointments, watched the younger crowd with a hungry, almost predatory nostalgia. They were looking for a night, an hour, a few minutes to feel like the men they used to be. Buck looked away. He was thirty-four, caught in the no-man’s-land between the two, and felt an uncomfortable kinship with both groups that made his skin crawl.

    This was a mistake. He should have stayed home.

    Or:
    A 34-year-old Buck and a 22-year-old Eddie meet at a gay bar and have sex about it. A lot of sex.

    Summary

    “So,” Eddie said.

    Buck glanced over. “So.”

    “Beck asked me out.”

    The world narrowed.

    Buck’s hand froze on the truck. “What?”

    --

    Or, Beckett Walsh, a firefighter from the London Fire Brigade, joins the 118 for a three-week exchange program and looks exactly like Buck.

    Everyone sees it.

    Everyone except Eddie.

    So when Beck asks Eddie out, Eddie says yes, hoping one date might help him understand why every relationship before this has felt almost right.

    Unfortunately for Buck, “almost right” looks a lot like him.
