Summary
“C'mere," Buck says, sitting up to scoot closer to Eddie.
"What are you doing?” Eddie asks, and Buck sighs.
"You can just kiss me, get a taste of the lip balm, and tell me what flavour you think it is.”
Eddie can’t believe his ears.
"That is such a stupid way to win a bet, Buck."
“Oh so you concede?"
Eddie rolls his eyes, shaking his head before planting both hands on the sides of Buck's face and hauling him in to press their lips together.
OR
Buck and Eddie make a bet on whether or not Eddie can guess all of Buck's lip balm flavours, and in order for Eddie to get a taste, they have to kiss.

Summary
"I just—you do so much for me." Buck runs his hands through the hairs on the nape of his neck, tugging them lightly.
"There is absolutely nowhere else I would rather be," Eddie walks up to him slowly, phone in hand. His other extends out, landing squarely on Buck's elbow. "Can I ask you a question?"
Buck nods silently, distracted by the heat of Eddie's palm on his skin.
"Wanna dance with me?"
Buck and Eddie slow-dance it out.

Summary
Looking down at the bottle’s label like he’s reading the countdown clock on a bomb, Eddie says, “Buck.”
“Eddie.”
Said Eddie huffs. Buck suspects he also had to fight back the urge to stomp his foot with that one. “I don’t need… I’m fine. It’ll go away in a couple of days; it’s only when I stretch weird, anyway, so—”
“Or, hear me out,” Buck interrupts coolly, “you could, I don’t know—relax? A few bubbles won’t bite, Eddie.” Then, softer: “It’s a muscle soak. It’ll help, I swear.”
Eddie holds out the bottle and points at it despairingly. “Citrus jamboree,” he whines.
“It’s a party,” Buck shrugs.

Summary
Eddie Diaz: father, veteran, firefighter, gay. It’s that easy. A descriptor, a word that Eddie’s spent his entire life running from.
It’s a fucking relief to realise now that he’s stopped running. The burn in his muscles will linger, but it’s okay. It will serve as a reminder of how far he’s come.
Beside him, Buck huffs a laugh. “I can’t believe you did a honky tonk dance.”
Eddie laughs, startled. “I can’t believe you didn’t."
Or: on the drive back to Los Angeles, Eddie works up the courage to tell Buck the truth.

Summary
Buck is used to pain – physical, constant and familiar enough to ignore. It’s just another thing he pushes through on long shifts at the station, even when it gets worse for no clear reason.
But ignoring pain is easy compared to ignoring Eddie.Between unspoken tension, stolen touches, and something neither of them has named yet, Buck finds himself unraveling in the quiet hours of a 24-hour shift. And when Eddie finally stops waiting for him to say it first, there’s no room left for pretending this is just friendship anymore.
Or, what starts with hands on Buck’s aching leg turns into something far more dangerous than pain management.Bookmarked by FromCharlieWithRegrets

Summary
So, with three relationship failures under Eddie's belt (four, if he counted Kim), it was time to face the reality that maybe, just maybe, he was sort of, kind of, possibly, a little tiny bit gay. Not fully gay. Just. Partially gay? It wasn’t that he disliked women…right? He’d been with women. He’d very contentedly had sex with women. Well, he’d liked getting them off. That felt good. He liked giving them something that made them happy and feel good. And that was fine, right? It just wasn’t mind-blowing. Was it supposed to be?
On this journey of self discovery, there was really only one option left: He needed to experiment on a real, actual, human man.
Or,
Eddie comes to some realizations about himself. Chief among them: he far prefers fucking men to women. Buck is supportive! And fine with this! So very, very fine with this...

Summary
On their way home, Buck and Eddie get a flat tire and have to spend the night at a motel. Picks up directly after 9x13: Mother's Boy.
“That lady at the front desk thinks we’re partners,” Buck spat out, the edge of his mouth curling like he was confused.
Eddie shrugged. “So? We technically are.”
“Not work partners. She thinks we’re… y’know. Honeymoon suite-ers.”
Eddie didn’t look up at Buck, instead stayed kneeling, searching for his pair of sweatpants. “Why do you care what she thinks, Buck?”
“I don’t. I just… don’t understand why you didn’t correct her. Just like those guys in the bar. And when the sheriff assumed you were my partner and let you get in the ambulance with me. You didn’t correct any of them.”
“Why should I care—” Eddie asked, finally lifting his eyes to look up at Buck through his lashes, “—what they think?”Bookmarked by FromCharlieWithRegrets

Summary
Buck gave him a look that somehow managed to be fond, exasperated, and completely wrecked all at once. “Eddie.”
Eddie frowned a little. “What?”
Buck stared at him for another beat. “You’re straight.”
Eddie actually laughed, quiet and startled.
“I’m serious,” Buck said, still looking half dazed. “You cannot kiss me like that and then act like you maybe had a suspicion about this. I have spent an extremely long time operating under the impression that you were devastatingly, inconveniently straight.”
OR Eddie and Buck leave the bar together

Summary
He sighs, frustrated, with the world, with himself, with the stupid, mediocre beer he’s drinking that cost him twelve damn dollars, before tip even.
“The club isn’t the problem,” Eddie mumbles, staring across the dance floor, where Buck is curving his hand around the woman’s head and whispering in her ear.
“Is the problem that your wingman is a traitor?” Ravi asks, snickering at the sight.
“No. The problem is I don’t want to pick up women.” Eddie really hopes that’s enough information. Ravi is a smart guy. He kind of hopes he’ll piece it together. Though another part of him, a soft, new part of him, hopes Ravi doesn’t. He hopes he has to say it. He should probably get some practice in, right?
Ravi looks at him then, studying him. “You’re really happy being single?”
Eddie exhales. Smiles small and shakes his head.
“No, it’s not that,” he says. “I’m just gay.”
OR Eddie comes out at the club during 9x07. Just not to Buck.

Summary
Eddie drops the hand pulling at the skin of his face and lets his eyes catch the letter again, lingering on the stance written for him. The cursive Buck haunts him, the delicate way his abuela wrote his name with Eddie’s.
She had prayed for him. She had prayed for him and Buck.
She had wanted him to find the happiness he sought in Buck—his best friend.
She knew before he did.
Mi niño, you were looking in the wrong place.
OR: When cleaning out her house, Eddie finds a prayer his abuela left for him.

Summary
"I hope I die first, you know," Buck breaks the silence, turning to face Eddie and propping his elbow over the back of the couch. Eddie looks over with a confused look on his face, encouraging Buck to elaborate. "Everyone inevitably leaves in some way-" he starts, but Eddie cuts him off. "I thought we were past this already, you know why I had to go-" Eddie says, but Buck interjects. "No, Eddie, I am past that. I really am. What I mean is, someday, everyone is leaving. There's no way around it." Eddie sighs and shakes his head. "You know I'm not going anywhere, Buck." "That's a promise you can't make," Buck snaps back, looking down at his bottle. "There's only one of two ways that this ends. Someone dies or someone gets hurt. I'm just saying, if one of us dies, I hope I die first." Buck looks up at Eddie, who's already staring at him. Eddie holds his eye contact and Buck swears he sees something unfamiliar flicker in his eyes. "How about neither of us die," Eddie chuckles, looking down in his lap, "Not anytime soon at least." He fiddles with the beer bottle in his hands. Buck just turns back to the tv, lets out a quiet laugh, and says, "Yeah."

“No, we’re not looking at this from any point of view, we’re closing our eyes! This is not logical, it’s–”
“It’s love, honey.”
And fuck his life, BJ couldn’t argue against that. He felt whiplash as he turned to look at her with dread and guilt, shame and desperation. His feet halted and stayed put as if nailed to the floor.
“I’m sorry, Peg, I’m so sorry.” He felt his throat close up, every apology he could think of insufficient.
“I’m not.” She got up, taking his shaking hands in her firm ones and gently guiding him back to the chair. She kneeled before him, like she’d done that dreadful day. “It is what it is, BJ. And it could be way worse.”
