    Summary

    "Eddie's curled up on the couch in his comfiest, makes-everything-feel-better sweater with bowls of chips and salsa on the table when someone knocks on his door. It's not that he's pouting or anything, of course, but with Chris off in Texas and Buck on a date, it's not like he's got anything better to do. And he can’t just ignore the knock; it wouldn’t be the polite thing.

    So, he pauses the old episode of Great British Baking Show he’s been watching, unburies himself from his couch blanket, and opens the door.

    To Buck.

    Who is supposed to be on a date."

    Summary

    “Pull over.”

    Eddie doesn't mean to say it so loudly, but it startles Buck anyway.

    “W–what?” Buck asks, glancing over at him with wide eyes.

    “Pull over, Buck,” Eddie repeats, taking care to say it more gently this time.

    Buck shakes his head a few too many times, eyes returning to being glued on the road, and hands keeping their death grip on the steering wheel.

    “N–no, I’m f–fine,” he stutters out with a tight smile that looks more like a grimace. 

    “No, you’re not fine,” Eddie pushes back, “and that’s okay. Just pull over for a bit.”

    or; Buck and Eddie get stuck in a storm on their drive home, and a downed tree forces them to spend a night at a tiny inn.

    He finds his Tía Pepa in the kitchen handing him a small stack of papers tied together with a red string in one of the corners and a pink post-it note on top that reads:

    "For Eddito to share with his Buck"

    A warm meal cooked and enjoyed together starts to finally bridge the gap between Buck and Eddie and they find a way to lean on each other again.

    Summary

    "Welcome! How can I help you today?" she asked, her eyes scanning his face, perhaps sensing the loneliness that lingered there, making him feel strangely vulnerable.

    "I’m just looking around," Buck replied, his voice low, unsure of what exactly he was seeking. "I… I think I’m ready for a companion."

    or,

    Eddie goes to El Paso with Chris, and Buck adopts a dog to fill the space. Healthy coping mechanism? Maybe. Either way, Buck ends up spiraling.

    Summary

    Everyone was prone to leave Buck. He was used to it now. That didn’t make Eddie announcing his departure any easier. Please, he thinks, anyone but Eddie.

    “It was like the world was put on pause. Nothing else mattered right now. Buck wrapped his arms around Eddie, his fingers grazing across the fabric of his black muscle shirt. His hands had found the small of Eddie’s back and rested on the dip before his waist. It was like that spot was perfectly molded for his hands.”

    Would Buck be alone forever?

    OR: Buck’s thoughts after Eddie leaves for Texas

    Lyrics from the song ‘Merry Christmas, Please Don’t Call’ by the Bleachers. Also, Bobby never dies in this one.

    Summary

    “Buck,” he whispers, heart beating furiously in his chest.
    “Yeah?”
    “It wasn’t about the juice.”
    “I know.” Buck tells him, whispering too, and inching closer.
    “I think-” Eddie starts, breath catching in his throat, “I think it was about you. It’s always been about you.” He finally says.
    “Yeah,” Buck nods, lashes low on his irises, nose brushing against his own, “I know, Eddie.”

    Summary

    Buck is held hostage in a fire, the suspect holding him at gunpoint. Buck had never felt like he would be the person who begged to live, considering his childhood, but he begged anyway. He could only hope that everyone else made it out alright.

    They would surely come back for him though, right?

    OR: Buck begs for his life in the middle of a fire, Eddie comes to save him.

    Summary

    “Why are you acting like this isn’t a big deal?” His voice was raised, but he wasn’t yelling. “Buck, you have been living out of a storage unit for weeks! You’re in pain, you’re hungry, and you’re— You’re homeless. You have no home."

    Eddie had such a way with words. You have no home. Very nice of him.

    “What do you want me to do, Eddie?” He put the measuring cup down with enough force that it bounced to the floor. “Breakdown and cry? Get on my knees and beg someone for a loan? I took what I could.”

    “No, you didn’t.” Eddie’s cursed index finger came up, pointing right at Buck’s chest. “Because you didn’t tell anyone! We would’ve helped you. I would’ve helped you.”

    “I don’t want anyone’s help,” Buck pressed. “I got myself into this situation, and I can get myself out. I always do.”

    Eddie held both his hands up, but they dropped as something dawned on him. Misery flooded his features. “You took over my lease.”

    The last thing Buck wanted to do was make Eddie feel guilty. His decisions put him where he was— Nobody else’s. Still, his head fell. “Yeah, Eddie. I did.”

    Or the one where Buck has no choice but to move into a storage unit, and Eddie finds out.

    Summary

    An open mouth grin stretches across Eddie's face as he collapses, breathless on the couch.

    Something unspools inside him as he rocks his head from side to side against the soft fabric of his couch.

    He has been so tightly wound for so many years, the simple acts of lip syncing and dancing feels like finding the inner string in a ball of yarn, and having the yarn pull free easily, without resistance.

    Warmth pools in his belly, and he feels lighter than he has in months.

    No, not months—years.

    It was just a silly little dance but—

    Silly, self-indulgent, joyful.

    Just for him.

    Summary

    This takes place after 8x14. Spoiler warning.

    The explosion happened. Bobby faked his death, but nobody knew. Buck is extremely distraught over it. Eddie is in Texas and found out what happened by watching the news and he couldn't get a hold of Buck, so him and Chris went back to LA in hopes that station 118 was alright, especially Buck. Eddie loved everyone at station 118, but he couldn't figure out why the possibility of Buck being hurt weighed on him the most. He stayed with Buck in their house. All of this leads to Buck and Eddie finally figuring it out.

    It starts off with a recap of 8x14 and then dives into Buddie for the rest of it. Well, mostly anyway.

    Summary

    It was Eddie’s turn to cut her off. “No. Buck wouldn’t do that,” Eddie rushed out. A new wave of nausea was making his throat tingle. “He wouldn’t.”

    “Wouldn’t he?” Maddie’s voice was practically inaudible.

    Eddie desperately sifted through his memories, looking for answers. Almost right away, he could list several occasions Buck put himself on the line. He knew about the time he recklessly crashed on his motorcycle, and he always took risks on the job. Buck never valued his life the way Eddie did.

    Maddie was right. It wasn’t Buck’s first attempt. Eddie wasn’t even sure if it was his second, third, or fourth.

    “Wait—” Eddie took a breath, trying so hard not to lose his mind. “You said it was three weeks ago. Why are you just telling me now?”

    “He didn’t tell me,” Maddie added. He could tell she was crying now.

    Eddie’s heart broke into a thousand pieces. “He didn’t—”

    “He didn’t tell anyone, Eddie."

    Or the one where Buck tried to end his life three weeks ago, and Eddie flies to LA the moment he finds out. Set after 8x10.

    Summary

    “I thought you should… see this,” Eddie then mumbles, fingers smoothing over the leather binding.
    Buck patiently watches as Eddie carefully flips the book open. There are dozens of sketches in here, some better than others. His childhood home back in El Paso, dunes only he knows exist just like this back in Afghanistan; a hand holding out, reaching for nothing.
    And then, on one of the last pages he’s filled so far—a shirtless man, viewed from behind, shown from the waist up, looking up at the upper left corner of the page, looking nothing short of a Greek God, ethereal glow and everything.
    Buck’s breath hitches when he sees it. Realizes that the messy curls, the defined back muscles, the patch of darker pencil around the brow, is all… him.

    or the one where Eddie Diaz worships Buck's lightning scars.
