    Summary

    It had started, like so many things in the last two years, with the pandemic. A COVID scare at the 118 had Hen and Chimney bunking in the loft’s downstairs living room, leaving Buck and Eddie to share the bed upstairs.

    Buck and Eddie. Two straight guys who absolutely had no problem with sharing a bed. There used to be a pillow between them, but weeks passed and they decided it was no longer necessary. As Buck said—they were two straight guys. This wasn’t the first time Buck had to sleep in close quarters with another guy, so it shouldn’t be a big deal, right?

    Except, it kinda was.

    After months of celibacy, Buck was pent up and Eddie just wanted to be a good friend. Besides, it's not gay if it's just the tip.

    Summary

    “Do none of you care about the children? It’s a bachelor auction, and you, my friend, are a bachelor. Abracadabra, put your name on the list.”

    “I can’t,” Eddie repeats. He can’t. He cannot. “I’m not.”

    “You’re not? Since when?” Chimney frowns. “Who?”

    It’s not Eddie’s fault that, at that exact moment, Buck walks in. So it’s not his fault that he opens his mouth and says, “Buck.”

     

    Or, Eddie trips and falls into a lightly fraudulent HR-disclosed "consensual romantic relationship" with his best friend. Really, if you think about it, it's a win-win.

    Summary

    Moonlight slips through the blinds, both brightening the room in a way that creates a haze of greyish midnight blue and casts lines of shadows across the room. Buck’s side of the bed is nearest to the window, which means he’s facing Eddie’s side of the bed— an empty one at that.

    Doubt clouds Buck’s muddled brain, and his eyebrows wrinkle in confusion. There’s no reason for Eddie to be behind him— none that make sense at least— but his hope gets the better of him.

    “Eddie?” he croaks out, starting to tilt his head backward.

    “Not quite,” the deep voice of an unknown man says.


    Buck and Eddie have just started moving into their new house when trouble in the form of two cruel intruders finds its way into their home in the middle of the night.

    Summary

    “You can't just punch someone when they make me uncomfortable Eds, you're going to get arrested again— oh my god what if that guy presses charges and—"

    Eddie digs his feet into the ground and Buck stops talking immediately and lets go of his arm as Eddie finally looks at him again…

    Yeah— still as beautiful as ever.

    He's barely even listening, but he speaks anyways, "I'll always defend you Buck, he shouldn't have done that."

    Or Buck dances on top of a bar and Eddie gets protective about it

    Summary

    Maybe that’s why he doesn’t understand what he’s feeling at first. Jealousy isn’t an emotion he’s used to having. And being jealous over Buck just doesn’t make sense. Buck isn’t his boyfriend. Eddie isn’t gay.

    Or, Buck is seeing Tommy again when Eddie moves back to LA. Eddie handles it about as well as you'd expect.
