    Summary

    Buck gains a baby, loses his boyfriend, and moves in with his best friend. In that order.

    -

    "You're moving in with Eddie?"

    "He offered," Buck says defensively. "Sometimes, a two parent household can consist of two single dads. Just like on Full House."

    "That is not what that show was about."

    "Sure, because they had three dads."

    Bobby makes a face and, sure, Buck isn't really old enough to have internalized a lot of Full House but Maddie loved explaining it to him. It's possible that he might have gotten it wrong.

    Summary

    “It was early,” he says, voice low. “I didn’t want to wake you up.”

    It’s such a Buck response, that special concoction of self reliance and avoidance, it’s hard to hold onto the anger simmering in Eddie’s blood. He’s not angry at Buck; he’s angry at the people who taught him that, even in an empty room, Buck doesn’t come first. That in that empty room, he should just wait for someone to come in, and shove them to the forefront.

    (aka buck has appendicitis, eddie comes running, and confessions are made)

    Summary

    “Which do you think makes you feel most loved?”

    Eddie thought for a long moment. Too long, maybe. Then he shrugged, “Honestly, Buck? I have no idea.”

    Buck’s brows pinched up. “What do you mean? When have you felt the most loved?”

    “Don’t make a big thing of this, Buck. Promise?”

    Buck made a show of crossing his heart, brows still raised curiously.

    “I’m not sure I’ve ever… really felt loved in a relationship? I’m not convinced that I know what makes me feel loved…”

    OR -

    After finding out that Eddie doesn't know what his love language is, Buck sets about finding out for him. He begins a five week experiment, one for each love language, to figure out which will make Eddie feel the most loved.

    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

    “Is your boyfriend a firefighter too?” Ali says knowingly, a little smirk on her face. Buck feels like he’s missed a step in the conversation, because how could Ali know anything about Tommy?

    But he soldiers on, says “Yes, actually, he’s –”

    “Eddie!”

    ***

    Or, five times one of their exes mistakenly assumed Eddie was Buck's new boyfriend, and one time the ex was right.
