    Summary

    Adriana doesn’t tell their parents that she’s going to LA. She doesn’t tell Eddie, either—or ask, for that matter.

    She does ask Chris, and he thinks it’s a good idea—says as much, on the phone, and doesn’t say much else.

    “Buck will probably be hovering,” is what Chris does volunteer.

    It still surprises her when the man who opens the door is not Eddie. It’s—Captain America, is the thing that actually comes to mind—a man close to a foot taller than she is, if not more than that, with blond curls and broad shoulders, and he’s got a question in his very blue eyes that’s probably less friendly than the one he actually asks her.

    “Uh,” he says. “Can I help you?”

    Or: Adriana arrives in LA. Maddie has been here the whole time.

    Summary

    Eddie was sitting on the floor of the hallway with his back against Christopher’s bedroom door. His eyes were dry, streaky tracks staining his cheeks where he had cried so much he ran out of tears. Through the closed door, he could hear sobbing, his son crying out for the one person who wasn’t there. He felt useless, wanting nothing more than to give Christopher exactly what he wanted but powerless to do so. He wrapped his arms around his legs and rested his head on his knees, curling up impossibly small.

    Buck was missing. It had been twelve months since anyone last saw him.

    -----

    Or, Buck was never found after the tsunami, but a year later, some hope returns to the 118.

    Summary

    Eddie moaned.

    Not a sleepy sigh. Not a nightmare mumble.

    A fucking moan.

    Then came the panting.

    Buck sat rigid against the headboard and turned his head slowly like he was in a horror movie, as he felt Eddie’s face press into his thigh, rutting against the mattress in lazy little thrusts.

    It was the most erotic, confusing, panic searing moment of his entire life.

    His hand had already been in Eddie’s hair, comforting, sweet, completely innocent—and he’d just… left it there.

    He didn’t mean to keep petting him through it. But there he was, softly stroking his best friend’s hair while he had a wet dream right in front of him.

    Or; Buck and Eddie share a bed and Eddie has dreams that are driving Buck crazy.

    Summary

    Buck has, he’s always seen Eddie as the sun. Still does. But it really makes Buck blind to when he’s struggling. Especially because Eddie has a tendency to brush it off or keep it to himself until it becomes unbearable and blows up in his face. But thankfully, he’s actually asking for help this time. Or trying to, at least.

    “Hey,” he says softly, rubbing Eddie’s arms. “I got you.”

    “Apparently I’m touch starved,” he says, trying for a sassy tone. But it comes out squeaky and raw.

    And. Oh.

    Buck’s pulling him into an embrace before his brain even finishes processing it, no intention of letting go anytime soon. Eddie sighs again, content this time. And god. Buck really is never letting him go.

    or

    If you ask anyone else, Buck and Eddie have finally figured it out and are extremely insufferable about PDA now. If you ask Buck, he's just helping his very straight best friend out. Very platonically.
