    Summary

    On the way back from a call, Buck is abducted and brutally assaulted. The aftermath is messy: Buck insists he’s fine (he's not), Eddie is wracked with guilt (predictably), and Christopher knows way too much (as usual). As the 118 rallies around them, everyone has to grapple with the fallout of the violence and what it means for Buck, for Buck and Eddie, and for themselves.

    Summary

    Buck and Tommy haven’t even been together for two months when Buck starts thinking about ending things. He hates himself for it, a little. He can’t put his finger on why the thought crosses his mind as he lays with his head on Tommy’s lap while they watch a documentary about a Napali mountaineer’s quest to summit the 14 peaks. It might have something to do with the put upon sigh Tommy had let out before agreeing to watch it with him. Or perhaps it was the fact that his fingers didn’t end up carding through Buck’s hair until he asked him to do it.

     

    Buck knows that he could talk to someone about it. He has plenty of people who would be willing to listen but each time he goes to say something he remembers how proud they were of him when they found out about Tommy. They’re happy for him and already have so many other things to be upset about. He’s made them worry about him too many times already; it’s better if they think he’s finally okay.

    Summary

    He’s not stupid. It took him some time — years — but Eddie’s half certain that, should his patience snap one day, should he lean in across the way one night when it’s just the two of them, should he palm at Buck’s jaw to bring his face closer and kiss him on the mouth, Buck would kiss him back. That’s not the problem.

    The problem is that Eddie’s gonna ruin it.

    He’s ruined every other romantic relationship in his life. If it happens with Buck, Eddie knows neither of them will come back from it.

    These days, he’s content with having Buck the way he does now. He may succumb to weakness, sometimes, like he just did in the kitchen, holding Buck like that, but Eddie’s willpower is the stuff of legend. He’s happy with his place in Buck’s life. He can play the part of codependent best friend, dad who stepped up, platonic soulmate.

    The main issue here, really, hindsight twenty-twenty and all, is that Eddie really misses being a husband.

    or: five times eddie, willing and knowing, acts like buck's husband, and one time he. well. you can guess where this is going.

    Summary

    Eddie tilts his head, his hand sliding off Buck’s knee as he leans back. Buck misses the warmth immediately. “Would that help you—having rules?”
    Buck can only nod in response, equally confused and intrigued by the sudden gleam in Eddie’s eyes.
    Eddie reaches for his beer bottle and brings it to his mouth, tapping the rim against his lower lip. “So if I came up with some dating rules for you to follow, you’d be all right with that?”

    Buck decides to start dating again, and Eddie offers to give him some rules to follow. That's just the kind of great best friend he is. It's a completely platonic arrangement, and Eddie definitely doesn't have any ulterior motives.
