    Summary

    It’d be good for Buck to have another cat around him. If Bobby’s lucky, Eddie’s mellow temperament would rub off on his crazy orange menace and make him less of a terror.

    Of course, that was delusional of him to hope so. If anything, the two were even worse together.

    Buck pawing at people’s legs as a distraction while Eddie stole something off their plate. Buck dragging gloves or socks into Bobby’s office like trophies while Eddie followed behind to drop the stolen items into Bobby’s trash can. Napping in the most random places and therefore forcing everyone to check the engine every time just in case they were inside. Following people around and plopping down belly up at their feet like two meowing speed bumps. Knocking random stuff off the shelves.

    Just last week, the two had stepped on the PA mic, Buck broadcasting a steady stream of purrs and random meows throughout the entire firehouse until Hen found Eddie serenely perched on the button.

    Bobby somehow ended up adopting not one, but two demonic cats.

    Summary

    “Bless your heart, you really are new to this. Good for y’all, though. I’m glad this ship is… accepting.”

    Eddie straightens in his seat. “What does that mean?”

    All four wince as a young man taps the microphone onstage.

    “Testing, testing,” he jokes. “Welcome to the Cruisin’ Couples Trivia Tournament!”

    The patrons around them cheer. Eddie digs his nails into Buck’s skin harsh enough to make him wince.

    “Oh,” he breathes. “This is for couples.”

    or: After getting dumped, Buck is left with two tickets to a weeklong cruise. Eddie steps in to support a friend in need, but complications arise when his friend becomes his fake husband. All's fair in love, war, and trivia.

    Eddie interrupts. “Well,” he says, turning fully to their waiter, “today’s kind of a special occasion, you see.”

    Sven smiles. “Someone’s birthday?” He looks between Buck and Eddie.

    “It’s actually, uh, our anniversary,” Eddie says, reaching out a hand to place over Buck’s.

    Buck chokes, even though all the bread is safely in the bread basket.

    Summary

    Buck only means to go to confession once.

    Instead, he finds himself returning to the same church again and again for reasons that have absolutely nothing to do with religion and everything to do with one devastatingly kind priest named Eddie Diaz.

    What starts as awkward conversations and accidental emotional vulnerability slowly becomes something far more dangerous: feelings.

    Unfortunately for Buck, falling for a priest is a terrible idea.

    Even more unfortunate?
    It might not just be him.

    Summary

    "Hey, sorry about that, I was just—Eddie?”

    Eddie’s head shot up at the sight of Buck, frozen halfway towards his seat. “Buck?”

    Buck let out an awkward chuckle and glanced around. “There must be a mix-up, I’ll go ask—”

    “No!” Eddie practically yelled the word, and then he winced at the desperation in his own voice. Belatedly, he realized it was possible that people who were interested in men were supposed to be sitting there. But Buck was watching him with wide eyes, still paused leaning on his chair, so Eddie added, “I could use a six-minute break. You know, from finding out how many siblings every woman in this bar has.”

    Buck’s eyes glinted in the dim bar lighting. He finally took the seat and asked, “oh, so you don’t care about how many siblings I have?”

    ——

    Eddie and Buck finally go on a date. It just takes them three times to realize it.
