Summary
“I lied,” Buck blurts out, sheepishly. “You seemed so relaxed while you were sleeping, and with the extra shift you covered yesterday… I just wanted you to rest.”
“You lied about what?” he asks, even though he has a pretty good guess.
“About the time,” Buck confesses, then adds, smiling at him, bashful, “I also turned off your alarm.”
(Or, five times Eddie feels something as Buck takes care of him, plus one time he realizes what it means, and kisses Buck about it.)

Summary
“There’s no way you want me as much as I want you.”
Eddie scoffs. “Try me.”
“I want to, like, hold onto your ankles and never let go.”
Without missing a beat, Eddie offers: “I want to handcuff myself to you so that you can never go anywhere without me.”
Or, Buck worries about wanting too much. Eddie literally and metaphorically scoffs in his face.

Summary
The kid claps a hand over his mouth. His eyes are huge and sparkling with something that looks like excitement or mischief, probably both.
"Sorry, sorry," he whispers loudly. Then he leans forward, like he's about to share a secret. "You're a hunk, right?"
Buck chokes on nothing. "I. What?"
"A hunk," the kid repeats. "You know, a hunk."
"I..." Buck has no idea what's happening. "Sure? I guess? I mean, I've been told... I work out sometimes—"
"Perfect!" The kid is already digging around in his backpack. He pulls out a slightly crumpled rectangle of cardstock and presents it to Buck with great ceremony. "This is for you."
It's a handmade card written in crayon, blue crayon. The handwriting is careful but wobbly, the letters all different sizes.
My dad likes boys and is single. He is a HERO and fights fires like Superman. He is a hunk. If intrested, please contact Chris Diaz.

Summary
Tears peek out from the corner of Eddie’s eyes, and Buck turns back to look at him, stammering and blinking rapidly. "What's wrong?" he can hear Buck asking softly, and Eddie finds the words he tried to voice earlier.
“And I’m… I’m looking at you now. And I can’t help but think I’m making another mistake. Another regret I won’t be able to make peace with.”
Buck’s hands grip the wheel tighter, and Eddie hears the deep breath he takes as he makes the turn onto their street. He thought Buck would say something back, or just even look at him after he said that. But they sit in silence once again, Eddie unsure if he should continue as Buck parks the car in their driveway.
“Just look at me. Look me in the eyes and tell me you don’t feel the same way. That you don’t know.” Eddie says suddenly, forcing Buck to look at him.
-------
With Bobby gone, Buck and Eddie try to grapple with their loss and their new living situation. But with Eddie being unable to to hide his feelings from Buck any longer and Buck falling apart at the seams, can they survive anything that comes next?
Set Post-Season 8.

Buck's been called a lot of different names, but none of them have ever sounded as sweet as they do coming from Eddie.
