Summary
He, Eddie Diaz, is not getting out of this alive.
One thing categorized and sorted.
Buck is the category Eddie has no idea what to do with and his brain stalls.
He doesn’t want to lie to Buck, especially if it’s the last time he’s ever going to talk to him. But he cannot have Buck come down here. There isn’t time for it and there’s not a thing Buck can do for Eddie. That was category one. Eddie is already dead. He cannot drag Buck down with him.
So Eddie has to make a choice. Lie to Buck and ensure he makes it to safety, or take the opportunity to say some final words to his best friend. He knows the choice he wants to make, but he also knows the choice he has to make. Because he knows Buck to his core.
or the fic where the universe decides to scream at Eddie Diaz by trapping him in a time loop where he is forced to watch his best friend die every day with no power to stop it.

Summary
“Do you…always kiss me?”
It just slips out. He can blame it on the blood loss and the concussion if need be, but it’s the question that’s been eating at him the most.
“Um, no. First time we’ve done that.”
Oh.
So he’s never forgotten a kiss with Eddie.
Eddie Diaz kissed him and Buck had willed himself to remember that moment so hard he was now caught in a time loop.
At least that part of all this finally falls into place.
Buck doesn’t understand why Eddie won’t admit they’re in a time loop or why he’s acting like he doesn’t remember what happens later today. But he does know Eddie dies, and he’s determined to change his fate. With or without Eddie's help. Even if that means dying in his place.
The B(uck) Side of for a while you were all mine, from Buck’s perspective. (He is so confused and so in love.)
