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
Finally, Eddie spoke. His voice was barely audible. “You shouldn’t have shown me this.”
Buck shifted. “Why not?”
“Because it’s 2 am on a school night, and now I need to go wake my kid up to tell him how amazing he is and cry into his pajama shirt.”
He was already moving, rolling towards the edge of the bed, but Buck was quick to pull him back. They wrestled half-heartedly; but the effort was hardly real on his opponent’s part and eventually Buck prevailed. Eddie slumped back, going limp in his arms.
Buck only pulled him closer, pressing his lips to the warm skin of his torso. “He knows,” he whispered into his skin.
Or;
Buck and Eddie, still figuring out what they are, want to keep their brand new relationship under wraps. Their boys don't quite get the same memo.

Summary
“Hey, Spider-Man!” Eddie says, groaning dramatically as he picks Theo up. “You ready for the big game today?”
“If I score a goal, I get a kitty!”
Eddie’s laugh filters down the hall like music to Buck’s ears. “Is that so? I think we should go see what your Buck says about that. Chris, would you mind setting the table?”
“Yeah, I got it,” Chris replies in his usual teenage monotony.
Buck chuckles to himself and flops back against the pillows, just staring up at the whirring ceiling fan for a moment as his chest fills with contentment. He was wrong earlier; it does get better. Having all of his boys together under the same roof is the happiest Buck can get; he’s sure of it.
The sound of socked feet approaches until there’s another presence in the doorway.
“Rise and shine, Buckley, it’s game day."
Or: It's Theo's first soccer game of the children of queer parents' league that Hen and Karen recommended. Except Buck doesn't exactly mention this to Eddie beforehand. Cue: Rainbows, fluff, and promises of a kitty.

Summary
Chris nods, Theo standing up on his tiptoes to reach the top of the sandcastle, which has grown exponentially in height since they’d started. After a few more minutes of working, the lifeguards approach with Buck in tow, one holding his surfboard while the other holds their first aid kit. Eddie stands and smiles, brushing himself off once again. He thanks the lifeguards and takes the surfboard, giving Buck a pointed look after.
“I think you should stick to some more lowkey activities for a while, Buck,” Eddie teases, laying the surfboard down until Buck grabs it from him to flip it over.
“What? You’re laying it down wrong. It should always be wax-side up,” Buck shrugs, Eddie smiling and taking a step closer.
“You know, that’s not how I wanted that to go,” Eddie says, feeling really bold whilst also entirely unsure of himself and his own words.

or, after Eddie performs mouth-to-mouth to save Buck's life, the wave of adrenaline that follows is what pushes him to take that leap of faith.Bookmarked by Demeter_P

Summary
"So Theo's my little brother, and it's not like you aren't gonna step up for him like Buck did for me."
"Uh..." Eddie immediately recognizes from Chris's face that was the wrong response.
"You're going to help Buck like he helped you, right?!"A simple question at breakfast sets Eddie's life ablaze: aka Eddie realizes he has a family, wants to raise a kid with Buck, and is in love with him. In that order.
