Summary
Missing Chris is less of an emotion these days and more of a physical entity. He’s sure everyone can see that he’s slowly hollowing himself out, that he can’t do much of anything else.
But when Jee laughs at him trying to get his tongue to touch his nose, and Mara loops one of her arms through his to keep him from tossing the rest of his cup in the garbage, Eddie feels solid again.
Maybe he likes yellow birthday cake ice cream after all.
(or, gerrard messes with the team's schedules and eddie 'i just drove my son to flee the state' diaz is the only option to watch mara and jee-yun after school on tuesdays, which, shouldn't be a problem at all, right?)

Summary
Buck is a lot. Eddie knows Buck is a lot. Buck knows Buck is a lot.
But every single person who ever said that to Buck said it like a warning. Like a disclaimer, a heads-up, a you-should-know-what-you're-getting-into before getting too close so they can't say they weren't told.
And Eddie has never, not once, wanted Buck to be less.
The surplus, the overflow, the fourth tangent on a story that started somewhere else entirely — that's not the price of Buck. That is Buck. And more of Buck has only ever meant more to love, and Eddie spent enough years running on empty to know what it means when someone fills up every room they walk into so completely that Eddie is overflowing with it most days.
"Eddie. Are you listening?"
Eddie nods. "Gym Katie is alone at the gym and she's upset."
Buck blinks. His mouth is still open from the sentence he was about to say, his hands still mid-gesture, and he looks genuinely thrown, like he expected to catch Eddie zoning out and instead got caught himself. Caught being heard.
"You were listening," Buck says, a little breathlessly.
Eddie smiles. "I'm always listening."
Or,
Eddie finds beauty in the mundane.- Language:

oh my god. this is one of the best fics i’ve read in a While. i’m gonna be thinking about this one for so so long. i have to get it out of the way but i was so hooked on the gym katie story every time we diverted i was hoping and praying we circled back. insane storytelling both author and honestly buck bc this is exactly how i operate i will tell u 16 stories within one story but i Will circle back. eventually. so so so so much love and GOD the little tiny things eddie notices but keeps to himself locked in a special little box named buck raahhhh im sick over it honestly. so silly and fun and god they really were best friends first. they’re always gonna be best friends first :( my buddie :(

Summary
In the seat Maddie was previously in, Eddie’s talking quietly to her brother, their heads bent close over the fire. She can’t really hear what he’s saying over the wind, only catching snippets of gentle syllables. Settled on Buck’s back, Eddie’s hand swipes absently up and down his spine, deft fingers smoothing out the creases of Buck’s robe. He murmurs something, laughing around the words, and Maddie watches as Buck’s cheeks dimple, a small smile tugging his lips upwards.
Swallowing, Maddie clears her throat quietly, crossing the last few paces up to them.
“Hi, you two,” she says, carefully walking around the fire to sit on Buck’s other side.
Buck smiles at her, eyes slow-blinking and droopy. His knee pushes into Eddie’s as he shifts in his place, pulling his sleeves further over his hands.
“Hey, Maddie,” Eddie says, face rosy in the dusky light. “You okay?”

Summary
“So,” Buck says, head spinning. He’s really feeling the alcohol now. They definitely should have eaten something before drinking. “No women.”
Eddie fumbles as he sets the bottle down on his bedside table. “No women.”
“What about men?” Buck blurts, which is—crazy, because again: neither of them are gay.
They’re just two straight guys. Two straight guys in Eddie’s bed, tipsy, and—and Eddie doesn’t want to sleep with women. Which means nothing.
Beside him, Eddie goes preternaturally still. “I would know, if I—you know.”
“Okay.” Buck’s hands twitch at his sides. “I—yeah. Me too.”
Then, very seriously, Eddie turns to look at him. “If I were gay, you would be my first call.”
Warmth blooms in Buck’s chest. Eddie’s so nice to him. “Dude,” he says, touched. “You’d be my first call too.”
Or: a story set in season 2 featuring tequila, Just The Tip, and, finally, a kiss.
