You know what? I don’t WANT an awkward double date. I don’t WANT buck coming out and people having the ‘I know’ reaction or the ‘is it Eddie’ reaction.

You know what I do want?

I want Buck panicking over what to wear for the date. I want Buck flopping on his bed like very teenager after their first kiss all giggly and happy and touching his lips because he kissed a boy

I want Buck smiling every time he says Tommy’s name because maybe it isn’t forever and maybe he’s not even looking for forever anymore but he’s so happy and he’s so light and being with Tommy feels good

I want Tommy to keep calling him Evan, because before Buck was Buck he was Evan and Evan deserves to be happy to be treated so softly and lovingly and Evan deserves to be free.

I want Buck to be happy. To be happy and free and queer in the way we all deserve.

I don't think I will ever NOT think about this gif right here and let me tell you why.

Buck is trying so hard to deflect any positive emotion in this situation because he still feels immense guilt for "losing" Chris. Even though it all worked out in the end, he hasn't forgiven himself for it and doesn't think he ever will.

Then we have Eddie. The way Eddie follows Buck's eyes no matter how hard he tries to avert his gaze. He knows exactly what Buck is doing and he will NOT let him deflect this. He doesn't stop until their eyes meet. He needs Buck to know that's it's okay and that it's not his fault. He's following Buck's movements and forcing him to lock eyes with him.

Eddie is doing everything in his power to let Buck know that Chris is okay. He is okay. They are okay.

Buck reading on the couch and it's been HOURS and he's taking up all the couch space with his stupid long ass legs but Eddie doesn't wanna' disturb him and knows he needs to let him come out of that focused zone on his own so he just... crawls over him and lies down on his chest. Buck let's out an 'OOF' but without missing a beat he adjusts Eddie so that he's lying more comfortably on him, puts an arm around him and goes back to reading. Eddie sighs all content and warm and safe and takes the best nap of his life while thinking 'I really get to have this. I get to be protected and cherished and cared for. I'm home '.

touches

Buck and Eddie ease into a relationship without a single word. It's not like they plan it. They just never see a reason to put a stop to it once they notice what's going on. Tags: #fluff #soft #getting together #developing relationship #first kiss #no dialogue #touching #non-sexual intimacy

It starts off small. Eddie and Buck are in the locker room changing out of their uniforms after a long shift. A small stumble and they bump into each other, smiling apologetically as they right themselves and continue.

It happens more frequently from then on. Hands reach out for balance and find the other. They move closer together whenever they're in the same room, gravitating towards each other like magnets. Hips bump, legs press against each other, and hands press reassuringly on an arm, a shoulder, or a back.

It escalates slightly after another long shift as Eddie and Buck both sink down onto a couch, exhausted, and lean against each other. They need a moment to catch their breath and Eddie's head ends up on Buck's shoulder. No one says anything. They don't move for at least five minutes.

The next step happens when they're having lunch together at the firehouse. Helping to bring food over from the kitchen to the table, Buck trips over his own feet and almost falls before Eddie is there to hold him up. Eddie's hands are on his waist and Buck leans into him, grateful and laughing at his clumsiness.

Their hands wander further from then on. When watching tv at the firehouse or at Eddie's house, hands end up on thighs. Passing each other in a corridor requires a gentle hand on the other's hip. Standing side by side for more than five seconds results in arms slung around each other and bodies pressed close.

Again, every one is a favourite but this is just— 🥹

Buck: Hey Eds, can we watch Inside Out tonight?

Eddie: *smiling softly* Sure thing, Buck, whatever you want.

Buck: Don't worry though, we can make out during the scary parts.

Eddie: Th—

Buck: The scary parts, Eddie, yes.

shoot another shot (try to stop the feeling) | 5k

eddie gets drunk and cuts a little too loose, buck tries to pick up the pieces and ends up getting more than he anticipated, tommy just knows

"Evan, he's fine," Tommy tells him yet again. It could be the fifth time tonight he's said it, but Buck is no closer to believing him than he was when this bachelor party started.

Buck just hums distractedly in response, eyes tracking Eddie as he slips out of a heated debate between Hen and Chim to shoot three shots at the bar. He's lost count of exactly how many times Eddie has sneaked in a secret shot between the rounds of drinks they're all splitting, but he knows for a fact this is the drunkest Eddie has ever been since Buck's known him. Eddie is wild and loose in a way that is terrifyingly unfamiliar to Buck. It settles like an itch under his skin, tries to drag something out of the back of his head that he can't quite get a solid grip on.

"He's just cutting loose," Tommy adds placatingly. "Let the guy have some fun."

Buck bristles at this, biting down on something that tastes a lot like the rubber of a basketball.

"No, Tommy." Buck turns back to his boyfriend—his boyfriend!!!!—with that nervous thrum of energy in his chest that usually sticks there in the few moments when he thinks a rescue is about to turn ugly. "I don't think that's what's happening. I wish it was." God, does he wish. If there is one man in the world deserving of letting loose and having pure, uncomplicated fun, it's Eddie. "You have no idea how much I wish it was, but I..." Buck sighs and glances back just in time to watch Eddie join Albert and Ravi on the dancefloor. "I know when he's pretending."

You don't have to pretend with me. Except Eddie does anyway, even if he knows that Buck will know he's pretending. It's some inescapable dance of theirs, a ritual that only ever pre-empts disaster.

"Okay." Tommy sets his beer down, nudges Buck's knee with his own to regain his attention. Buck looks back into the face of Tommy's gentle understanding and blushes just a little at the unwavering trust there. "Talk me through it."

how it started how it´s going

[monachopism]

i really do hope at some point buck is comfortable enough talking abt his sexuality to casually tell eddie at one point how attracted he was to him initially

"yknow, i didn't see it at the time, but im pretty sure the reason i was mean to you when we met was because i had a crush on you."

"you- uh- you did?"

"yeah, weird right?

"weird"

and then maybe.....messy kiss? miscommunication trope? mutual pining? slowburn? idk pick ur poison

[911-incorrect-quotes-dispatch]

Buck: C'mon Eddie, write the letter so Chris sees we also believe in Santa.

Eddie, reading the letter out loud: Fine. Dear Santa, I'm writing this letter to let you know I have been naughty...

Buck: Where are you going with this?

Eddie: And it was worth it, because the punishment and aftercare Buck gives me would make you blush, you judgemental bastard.

The day this fandom lets go of the notion that Eddie will automatically fall back to violence just because of the illegal fighting ring arc is the day I will know peace. Reminder that fighting ring Eddie was all grief and rage and helplessnes because he didn't know what to do or how to handle his emotions. He has already worked through all of that. The REAL Eddie when angry is just passive aggressive and uses his words. He was literally held hostage by prisoners and he snarked at them THAT'S the real Eddie! So no, actually, he's not going to punch anyone who's a little bit of a shit towards him. So please let the notion of violent/aggressive Eddie die in peace, it's such a disservice to his character development. The real Eddie is gentle and loving and smart. Hell even in the military, he chose to be a medic! A healer! He is a soft soul broken by life's hardships but as he heals, his true self is showing and it is not the aggressive guy a lot of people seem to think he is.
