Summary
Years before joining the 118, Buck’s travels take him to El Paso, where he meets Christopher. When Eddie comes back from Afghanistan and Shannon leaves, Buck ends up staying. As bills pile up, the best move is for them to get married, just for convenience, they’ll divorce when Eddie comes back from his re-enlistment.
Then Eddie gets injured and it’s just easier to stay married for a little longer, while Buck gets started at the 118. However, Buck doesn’t mention his ‘husband’ and kid, not feeling like they’re his to keep. When Eddie gets the offer from Bobby, they decide to lie and pretend they don’t know each other, so they can work together.
The whole lie gets out of hand as feelings start to become real, until it all comes to a head in the aftermath of the fire engine explosion.
AKA: Secret marriage of convenience buddie slow burn AU, where Buck and Eddie have been married for years so Buck could adopt Chris and no one at the 118 knows.

Summary
Buck is greedy. He knows that. But is he really greedy for wanting only one thing?
He just wants Eddie to want him. To need him. He's balancing on a fine edge of being normal, not too much, and desperately clawing at any chance to have more of Eddie. All he has to do is keep being a blood bag and hopes everything does not fall apart. Everything in between is just collateral.

Summary
In his mind he repeats, ‘Tell me you’re not miserable, tell me you’re not miserable,’ Like a terrible mantra, echoing and echoing until it reverberates off of the walls in his mind, the walls in his home. He wants to fall to his knees and clasp his hands together in prayer. He wants to beg, plead, cry, scream, until his voice is hoarse; tell me you’re not miserable, please.
—
Or: Eddie finds himself in poetry and figures out what he wants.

Summary
“Let me come with you,” Buck says, practically begging. “Look, I know it’s your son and your truck and your crazy plan, but it’s Christmas, and maybe it’s insane, but I’d rather be with you getting a neck cramp from sleeping in your passenger seat than on my couch alone or begging Maddie to let me sit in on her and Chimney’s plans. And then I can play my road trip playlist and find all the cheapest gas stations and make sure you don’t cost yourself two-hundred bucks by speeding on the I-10, and…it’ll be fun. I promise. Just—” Buck bites his lip and softens his voice. “Just let me come.”
Eddie just raises an eyebrow at him and motions to the passenger seat. “Well,” he says, “you better get in.”
or, christopher has a request: to be back in LA in time for christmas. eddie drives sixteen-hundred miles to make it happen (and of course, buck comes along too).
