    Summary

    “You were just telling us about your dog, Pumpkin. Three years old. You’re taking her to the park this weekend?”

    And, oh. Buck wanted to laugh. Hen thought Pumpkin was a dog. He did laugh; loud and wheezing.

    “Buck?”

    “Right, you’re right. Pumpkin. How could I forget?” Buck wiped a tear from his eye. He didn’t know why it was so funny, maybe he had bumped his head a little, but for some reason, Hen mistaking his three-year-old daughter for a dog was just about the funniest thing he’d ever heard.

    Summary

    He can’t handle standing next to Eddie for however long it takes to clean the engine, he just can’t. He’s going to lose it. And he’s going to lose Eddie, too, because he’ll inevitably either kiss him or confess his undying love. He can’t even guarantee he won’t just drop down on one knee and propose.

    “Oh, yeah, I’ll be right there, Bobby!” Buck yells before dropping his rag into the bucket and taking off towards the loft, leaving Eddie standing there dumbfounded.

    “Buck, no one was calling for you!” he shouts, exasperated. Buck ignores him and bounds up the stairs.

    Or: Buck realizes he's in love with Eddie shortly before a 24 hour shift. Out of fear of accidentally confessing his love, Buck tries to avoid him at all costs. If only Eddie wasn't so derermined to talk to him.

    Summary

    When Buck comes out to Eddie it opens up a whole host of emotions, the least of which not being unwavering jealousy. So he copes with that in a totally normal way, by getting on Grindr and screwing men to help distract his thoughts. It's his own dirty little secret, that is until Buck shows up like a sad puppy on his doorstep while he still has one of those men in his bed. Then trying to hide it makes everything a whole lot messier.

    Summary

    “Why are you the way you are?” he asks and Buck freezes in his movements. Eddie sounds serious — like he’s genuinely upset. With Buck?

    “What, um,” Buck tries, clearing his throat awkwardly, a sinking feeling growing in his gut. “What do you mean?”

    “‘s fucking annoying,” Eddie slurs, rolling his eyes again and leaning back to look at the ceiling as if it’s something interesting. “”’nd exhausting.”

    Buck’s heart drops, remembering Eddie’s words in the grocery store all those years ago. Eddie just yawns and closes his eyes with a sigh.

    “D’you know how exhausting it is to be around you?”

    Or: Eddie is annoyed with Buck for being so very kissable but his drunk self isn't the best at phrasing things.

    Summary

    Buck’s not sure if the wetness on his face is just the rain or if he’s crying.

    “Buck!”

    Eddie’s voice makes Buck stop in his tracks and his breath catches in his throat. He turns around and sees Eddie running towards him and he’s getting closer and closer and Buck just really cannot face this right now, so he turns back around and starts sprinting.

    “Buck!” Eddie yells again, this time sounding exasperated. Buck speeds up.

    “What the— Buck!”

    Why is Eddie making this so difficult?

    Or: How Buck and Eddie's first kiss leads to someone calling the police on them.
