Summary
“Gentlemen. Ma'am,” he greets. Eddie looks over the man's shoulder to see Buck unfold the letter, his face falling deeper into despair the further down the page he gets. “I am Lieutenant James Francis of the United States Navy SEALs.

Summary
"Just raise your hand, Buck, come on!”
“I can’t.” He's ready to scream when he catches the look in Buck's eyes. Heart sinking, he trails his vision over those too-still limbs, the rock pushing up his helmet at the base of his skull. “My body isn’t listening to me, Eddie. I-..I can’t move..” No. No, no– “I’m so sorry. I promise, I know you tried your best.”

Summary
"Buck?”
Blue eyes peek beneath blond lashes, the world coming to a focus around the kid next to him. They trail over his glasses, his toothy grin, all the way down to the hand resting on his.
That’s kinda weird.
OR

Summary
“Woah!”
He grips the yellow collar of that shirt, dragging Chris away from the roaring current and to his chest. Once they’re safe and secure in the center of the truck, he lets himself breathe.
“Ok,” Buck chokes. “We’re just gonna sit like this for a while, alright?”
Christopher nods, holding him just as tight. “Sounds good.”
OR
Buck catches Chris before he falls into the water. Now, it's up to him to get them through the carnage of the tsunami and back to his father. At any cost.

Summary
Eddie lets his grip linger just a moment longer. Things rarely go well when they split up and he has a sinking feeling this time won't be any different. Even if he can only see Buck's eyes through the mask, it's obvious what he’s thinking.
"Go." Don't jinx this. "The sooner you leave, the sooner you're back, right?"
"Right." His hand drops. "Be right back."
OR
An owner's failed attempt at insurance fraud puts Eddie in a situation he never imagined he'd be in. After his gear is stolen, Eddie has no choice but to leave Buck behind in a burning building and, worse, Buck doesn't know it wasn't him ignoring his calls for help.

Summary
“But, seriously, that sounds great. I’m actually excited to try more of your cooking.”
“Yeah?” Buck gives a small noise of agreement as he focuses back on the truck. “Then maybe I can make you something special, sometime. Just the two of us.” His whole body halts, a watchful air around Buck as he turns towards him slowly. Eddie’s heart is beating a bruise against his chest. “I can make us dinner. You know. Like-... Like a dat–”
“BAMBI!”
All heads swing to the open bay doors, one mountain of a man standing proud with his hands at his waist.
"...Rory?"
OR
Just as Eddie finally finds the courage to ask Buck out on a date, an old friend of Buck's shows up and their relationship is deep. Eddie tries to stay hopeful but with a potential long-lost love standing in the way, he knows he has to do what's best for Buck no matter what. Even if that means letting him go.

Summary
Eddie doesn’t so much wake as blink his eyes open, morning light streaming through the window. And he already knows something is wrong. His ceiling is wrong, his bed in a different corner of a different room in a house he probably won't recognize.
"What the hell?"He stumbles out from the covers, Chris eating cereal at a table he also doesn't recognize. “Uh, hey, buddy. Everything ok?”
“Yeah.” His spoon halts halfway to his mouth. “Are you ok?”
OR

Summary
“I told you I was busy!”
“You’re always busy! I haven’t heard from you in three weeks!”
“Well-” Faith bites back her words, thinking. “...Has it really been that long?”
“Yes,” she cries and Buck pulls his hand back before he can interrupt. “I know you love your job and I know how important your work is to you, but seriously? You won’t even answer my texts.”
OR
A fight between two girlfriends on a call brings up Buck's memories of being ghosted. Eddie offers him the chance to talk it out.

Summary
Eddie blinks, thinking back to last night. “I slept almost 12 hours.”
"Yeah, I know. I’m surprised.” Buck digs his feet into the ground, stretching one last time and laughing, “You weren’t kidding when you said video games were ‘your kind of therapy’.”
"Yeah.” The word floats to the floor as Buck heads to the kitchen to start breakfast. “Video games…”OR
3 times Buck noticed video games help Eddie fall asleep at night + 1 time he uses them to make his day better

Summary
"Buck." They rush forward, Eddie immediately honing in on the red splotches covering his chin and face. If the way he's holding his arms close to his chest says anything, what's under his shirt is just as bad. "What the hell happened?"
There's barely time to open his mouth when a small noise chimes from his shirt, Buck dipping his arms down so two green eyes can peek up at him from inside his button-up.
Christopher practically squeals. "A cat!"
OR
While trick-or-treating with the Diaz boys, Buck rescues a cat. Eddie might be a little stressed about Buck's injuries, but they manage to still have a wonderful night.

Summary
Buck elbows his way through the crowd, narrowly dodging sloshes of beer and the sneers of the people holding them. He’d apologize if he thought stopping to talk with them wouldn’t make things worse. Instead, his eyes go back to scanning each face, searching for that one he’s desperate to see.
OR

Summary
The clock reads 1:38AM and he knows he needs more sleep, especially after their shift today, but the rain on his window clicks a little too loud, the ache in his shoulders coming in waves a little too terse. His feet pat along the cold ground leading him to his son. The door is silent as it opens and, inside, Christopher is fast asleep in bed. Just where he left him.
He shuts the door to only a crack and turns towards the living room when the light from the dining room catches his eye. He almost questions whether he forgot to turn it off when he hears the quiet tapping drumming out.
OR
Eddie wakes up during a thunderstorm and decides to check on Christopher and Buck, only to find Buck awake and in bad shape after a nightmare. In his pursuit to comfort his best friend, several things come to light, including a big oversight on just what Eddie's will means to their relationship.

Summary
Stealing an extra chair as they go, they take their seats and dig into their dessert. "Is it just like you remember, Buck?"
Buck grins around his spoon. "Better. They say food tastes best with company."
Eddie and Chris stop at that, glancing at each other for a moment.
"What do you mean? Didn't your dad take you to get ice cream after your games?"
Buck goes completely still.
OR
Christopher's soccer game brings up certain memories of Buck's time as a high school football star. As the night goes on, Eddie reveals some childhood memories of his own and, together, they're finally able to express more than they ever hoped for.

Summary
“He didn’t recognize me or Pepa. He doesn’t remember anything about L.A. or the firehouse or leaving Texas in the first place.” Those piercing blue eyes strike right at his heart. “Eddie, I tried to jog something by showing him pictures, but he didn’t recognize any of us… and he didn’t recognize you.”
'You're a stranger to him...'
OR
An already rough morning takes a turn for the worse when Eddie and Christopher get in an accident. Everything seems fine until Chris wakes up asking for his mom.

Summary
“Noo, I’m fine. Plus, I promised Chris we’d hang ou-” The last of the word is lost to his yawn.
“I’m sure Chris wouldn’t mind waiting to play with a well rested Buck. Isn’t that right?” Chris nods. “He just nodded, in case you can’t see through your eyelids.” Eddie chuckles as Buck tries and fails to wretch even one of his eyes open. “Here,” he pushes his keys into Buck’s hand. “There’s only a few things left on our list. Go take a nap in the truck until we’re done, ok?”
Buck hums something unintelligible, stepping over to plant a kiss on Chris’ head. Eddie’s got both hands on the basket, ready to move to the next aisle, when Buck suddenly turns to him and presses that same soft kiss against his lips.
OR
5 times one of them has to put the other to bed + 1 time neither of them have to be told

Summary
“Merlin?” There’s something close to awe on Valamir’s face as he blatantly studies the man. “Your name’s Merlin?”
His cheeks go hot under the intense gaze, more so when Arthur’s is added. He could practically hear those blue eyes swiveling back and forth between them. Composure. He needs composure. “Yes,” he clears his throat. “Merlin. Y- I am. I’m Merlin.” Some composure. “Um, please, allow me to show you your room, Your Highness.”
OR
King Valamir is not all he seems. Coming from a land of magic, his view of Camelot is anything but positive and that makes any talk of a treaty between their kingdoms seem futile. Of course, the king seems to be only interested in Merlin, especially because he knows Merlin is Emrys and he sees it as his duty to whisk Merlin away from the evil place. All the attention he gives the warlock doesn't help Arthur, either, who's trying to confess a thing or two to his manservant.

Summary
Eddie lets himself relax, just a little, allowing his eyes to break away towards the greenery for once and it’s breathtaking. Not for the first time, he finds himself happy that he brought them to California.
Even though scary things have happened. Buck would say that he’s jinxed himself just thinking about it.
OR
While enjoying a simple hike along a mountain trail, Buck and Christopher get caught in a landslide. They're ok for the most part and agree to meet Eddie in the parking lot, but that doesn't mean Eddie isn't desperate to get back to them as soon as possible.
