    Summary

    Eddie can’t help but stare at them across the table, these perfectly normal people laughing and chatting and sipping their wine like this is Sunday brunch, while their son sits there looking like he hasn’t slept in six months and their daughter only just got home from a facility.

    Summary

    Buck clenches his jaw hard and drops his head on his chest as he waits for the alarm to stop, his hands still covering his ears but even tighter, his eardrums throbbing with the abrasive sound, but it doesn't stop; it keeps ringing and ringing and it’s so violent that Buck can feel it inside him, his bones and muscles vibrating harshly with each splitting boom and it makes his knees hit the ground because it’s much more than he can handle.

    *

    Buck gets hurt and temporarily loses his hearing.

    Summary

    ‘GET DOWN!’ Eddie calls out, but before he can say or do anything else, the tremor of the unstable ground sends him flying backwards, head first into a wall behind him.

    The last thing Eddie hears before he blacks out is Theo’s scream.

    or,

    eddie and theo caught in an opening emergency, in the form of an earthquake.

    Summary

    for the absolutely infallible @eddiesdiaz who asked me on Tumblr:
    High school au where Buck’s the sad lonely kid with the shit family and Eddie’s the popular captain of the wrestling team who makes it his personal mission to make Buck an honorary Diaz and convince him that he deserves nice things I am just saying
    ———

    Buck was good at going unseen.

    It was a defense mechanism—his parent’s couldn’t get upset with what they didn’t realize was there—and it had only amped up once Maddie graduated. Once she went off to college, Buck had no reason to be a distraction anymore, to try and pull attention off of anyone; so he just got better at it. He could pick things up and set them down without a sound. He constantly walked on the balls of his feet. He even kept his breathing even, slow and low, whenever he wasn’t alone.

    Buck was invisible to absolutely everyone.

    Well… everyone except Eddie Diaz.

    Summary

    “Get home safe,” Buck says. Then, as always, he thinks: I love you.

    Eddie goes very, very still. His breathing stutters to a stop. There’s a strange expression on his face, his mouth twisting in that way it does when he doesn’t know what to say.

    Buck squints blearily at him. “What?”

    A muscle in his jaw twitches once. Twice. The muted light illuminates the quiet movement of his throat as he swallows.

    “What’d you just say?”

    “Get home safe,” Buck repeats, a yawn overtaking the last word. “Why…?”

    Or: the one where Buck, drowsy and delirious on pain medication, confesses his love to Eddie without realizing it.
