I completely forgot to promote my fic here on tumblr but hey! that means if you find it here you'll have 5 chapters to read!
Summary: Buck hated hospitals. It made him think of his first date with Abby, of the truck bombing, of the embolism, of the tsunami. Just, a lot of bad memories, is all.
Which is why he had wanted to tell everyone so quickly. Just so he didn’t have to go to this appointment on his own. Last week he had gone alone, thinking it would be just another check up and then his doctor had looked at him with pity in his eyes and told him they’d found abnormalities in his blood work and they needed him to stop taking his blood thinners and come back in a week.
His doctor had been simultaneously vague and clear when he told him what they would be looking for. Listing all the possible reasons that his blood cell counts were off. But on that list was cancer and Buck knew that with his fucking luck, it would be that. The look on his doctor’s face made him think that he thought so too.
or
Buck had meant to tell everyone, he had, really. But they were angry with him and he didn't want them to forgive him just because he might be dying. He needed to fix things first.

Blame Me (For Mistakes You've Made But You Can't Own) (4.5k Words)
Basically this is just a Buck sick fic. I thought it would be interesting to delve into Buck's probably complicated relationship with illness during his childhood. It made me wonder how differently his parents might have treated him and how the 118 would react to certain revelations.
Buck doesn't know about Daniel and doesn't find out about Daniel but he is mentioned briefly when it jumps to Maddie's POV.
READ THE FIC HERE (AO3)
Summary
Buck goes into work sick and the 118 take care of him. We delve into Buck's complicated relationship with illness, due to his parents own relationship with ill children. A fic where Buck is still in the dark about Daniel.
SNIPPET
“What was your mom's go-to remedy?” Bobby asks, glancing at Buck, who's been suspiciously quiet. Buck sneezes defensively—if a sneeze could be defensive or delay the incoming conversation. “I don’t think my parents really had a go-to method for dealing with illness other than pretending it wasn’t happening. I don’t remember ever going to the hospital or anything like that outside of, like, pneumonia one time as a kid. Even then, my aunt took me and signed me out until Maddie was old enough. “I was always sick as a kid,” Eddie admits sheepishly. “I can’t believe you never got sick.” “Evan was very sickly, don’t let him fool you.” Maddie replies. “Mads—” Buck really wants to stop this conversation in its tracks before it can progress any further. He was feeling so much more vulnerable than usual. “What did your parents do when you were sick?” Hen asks. “Fuzzy socks and an electric blanket—the cold months and all that, you know? Buck’s body was always healing from one injury or another, so I think it made his immune system shitty.” “Sometimes, when you talk about our parents, I’m pretty sure we had different parents. They must have been abducted by aliens or something,” Buck rolls his eyes, shifting away from his sister, who tries to press the back of her hand to his head. “Maddie took care of me until she moved out, whenever I was sick. My parents were weird about it, like I said.” “Weird how?” Chim asks suspiciously, remembering Eddie's accusations of terminal illness. “I don’t know, weird! Mom wouldn’t come anywhere near me if I was sick. I think she didn’t want to risk catching it herself.” Buck laughs to himself and shrugs a little uncertainly. “It was just easier to keep it to myself. Especially because dad would get angry when mom was upset.” “They’d get mad at you for being sick? Hen asks, bemused.

also also. like i know we've talked about the husbandism but i don't think we've talked about the specifics of it enough because that was like. rehearsed. buck rambles his way through a story and eddie provides contextualising information for those who aren't grossly entwined in his life and buck knows to take breaths to let eddie do this before seamlessly picking the thread of the narrative back up. it's literally insane. you can tell this is something they've done a thousand times before. THE RITUALS!!! THEY'RE INTRICATE!!!!!!!

Tommy and Eddie's Wild Adventure
**If you start reading and feel a bit concerned, please scroll all the way to the bottom for tags/spoilers. Otherwise, enjoy the ride!** (read here or on ao3)
“I'm gonna get us an Uber,” Tommy said, pulling his phone out of his back pocket. He was a slightly off balance, the couple drinks he and Eddie had hitting him harder than usual tonight. Before he could get his phone unlocked, it slipped from his hand and directly down the drainage grate underneath him.
“Damn it!” He bent down to try and reach through the grate to get it. It was useless though. His hand was too big, plus the phone had already sunk beneath God knows how many feet of water and sludge.
“It's fine,” Eddie said, tapping his back. “We'll use mine.”
He started feeling around for his phone, then paused, his lips pursed together.
“What's wrong?” Tommy asked, standing back up.
“I don't have my phone. I must've left it at home.”
Tommy sighed, rolling his eyes. “Great! So we're stuck here then. We're gonna have to-”
“Tommy, shut up!” Eddie whisper-yelled, eyes wide as he gripped onto Tommy's shoulder.
“What? Eddie, what are you-”
“Shut. Up!” He demanded. He pointed behind Tommy. “Look!”
At the end of the parking lot there was a dumpster, mostly hidden out of view. There was a small amount of light that glowed from a nearby lamppost, just enough for Tommy and Eddie to see two men tossing what appeared to be a body into the dumpster.
Eddie nearly pushed Tommy behind a tree before hiding behind him, both boys holding their breath until the men drove off and they were alone in the parking lot.
“Oh my God,” Tommy said, eyes wide. “Oh my God.”
“Go, go!” Eddie pushed Tommy forward, following behind. They carefully but quickly made their way over to the dumpster, where a body laid on top of boxes and bags of garbage.
“We've gotta get her out!” Eddie said, already pushing himself up and into the dumpster. Once inside, he checked for a pulse. “She's gone,” he told Tommy.
He shook his head. “Damn it.”
Eddie hoisted the woman over his shoulder. Tommy reached out and grabbed onto her, pulling her out and onto the ground. He took Eddie's hand next and helped him out of the dumpster.
“What do we do?” Tommy asked, staring down at the blonde-haired woman.
“Call 911.”
Tommy huffed out a breath. “We don't have a phone, Eddie!”
“Well we can't just stand here,” Eddie replied. “The killers might come back.”
“Why would they come back?!”
“Have you never watched a Dateline? They come back to like admire their work, you know, like it's a trophy or something.”
Tommy looked around the area, searching for any possibility that someone was watching. “We've gotta go get help.”
“We can't just leave her here.”
“We don't have any other choice!”
“Shh!” Eddie waved his hands, getting Tommy to quiet down. “We- We'll take her.”
Tommy raised an eyebrow. “Take her?”
“Yeah,” Eddie nodded. “Yeah, we take her with us. To the police station.”
“Just... We just carry the body all the way to the police station? That's like ten miles!”
“I think it's only eight.”
Tommy shook his head. “You're insane, Eddie!”
“You got a better idea?”
*****
“You know they've killed people for less than this,” Tommy said, gripping the woman's legs tightly.
“What? They have not.”
“Oh, yes they have! We get caught carrying this poor woman down the street and next thing you know, we're on death row being asked what our last words are.”
“Whoa!” Eddie exclaimed, his hand slipping from underneath the woman's arm. He adjusted her before continuing. “What would they be?”
“What would what be?”
“Your final words, Man. What would they be?”
“Jesus, Eddie, I don't know. Who thinks about that?”
“I know mine! Watch your step.”
Tommy looked back and took a step left to miss some trash on the ground. “So what are they then?”
“'La muerte es segura, pero su hora es incierta.' It's a Spanish proverb. At least, I think it is. My abuela used to say it.”
“What's it mean?”
“It means death is certain, but its hour is uncertain.”
Tommy stopped dead in his tracks, causing Eddie to nearly topple over the body.
“What the hell?” Eddie shrieked.
“Eddie, that's the stupidest last words I've ever heard.”
“What?! It is not!”
“Yeah, it is. First of all, you're about to get a lethal injection-”
“I'm choosing the electric chair.”
“Whatever. They're literally giving you an exact minute of your death, so your hour is very certain.”
“That's not-”
“And second,” Tommy continued, speaking over him. “You really want that to be the last thing Christopher hears coming out of your mouth? Before you're electrocuted in front of him? Really, Eddie? Think this through.”
“Christopher is not going to be at my electrocution, Tommy. I'll talk to him the day before.”
“Oh, he'll show up,” Tommy replied with absolute certainty. “He will show up.”
“Okay, fine, if my last words are so terrible, then tell me yours. Also, start walking again. She's heavy!”
Tommy rolled his eyes but resumed his walk. “I told you I haven't thought about it.”
“Well, get thinking. Final words. Go.”
“Okay, fine. First, lethal injection, because who the hell chooses electrocution, Man, come on! Second, Evan would be there, so I'd probably look at him and tell him he gave me the best years of my life.”
“Ew!” Eddie gagged. “That sucks. You suck!”
“It's better than your stupid proverb that doesn't make any sense. Okay, I gotta put her down for a second.”
They moved into a little alleyway and placed the woman down gently, then Tommy ran his arm over his forehead, wiping the sweat away. “There's gotta be an easier way to do this.”
Eddie peeked out of the alley, turning back quickly when he spotted people coming their way. “Act cool, act cool!” he exclaimed, leaning against the brick wall with one leg crossed over the other.
Tommy took a couple steps back, plastering himself against a dumpster with an elbow resting over the top.
The people passed without noticing them and they resumed their discussion.
“Okay, let's think, let's think,” Eddie said, bringing a hand to his chin. “Your phone is down a drain, mine is at home. We've got a body here that we can't leave behind, but it's too risky to keep walking along the street. Also, too painful.”
“Excellent recap,” Tommy deadpanned. “Can we start the episode now?”
“You know this attitude your giving is not helping,” Eddie said with a glare. “Why don't you come up with an idea?”
Tommy took a deep breath, then looked past Eddie out toward the street. “Taxi.”
“What is this, 1982? Come on-”
Tommy pointed behind Eddie, making him turn around. There was a taxi parked across the street, a group of women laughing and fixing their dresses as they exited.
“You distract, I'll put the body in the trunk,” Tommy decided, nodding at Eddie.
“Wait, what?”
“Go, Eddie! Before someone else gets the taxi. Go!”
*****
“And what's that button do?” Eddie asked.
“That's the button for the radio,” the taxi driver replied, giving Eddie an odd look. “Are you sure your friend doesn't need help with his luggage?”
“Oh, no, no. He's got it.”
Just then, the trunk slammed shut and Tommy was getting into the taxi. “Could you take us to-”
“Fountain Avenue,” Eddie interrupted. “Anywhere on the street is fine.”
“Sure thing.”
They settled into their seats as the driver headed off, Tommy staring over at Eddie. “The police station is two streets over from Fountain,” he whispered.
“I know. Going right to the police station will look suspicious. We'll walk there from Fountain.”
“They'll see Lillian before that.”
Eddie looked over at Tommy quizzically. “Lillian?”
“Yeah. Lillian.”
“Who the hell is Lillian?”
“Eddie,” Tommy gritted out, eyes darting back and forth from the driver to Eddie. “Lillian.”
“Oh! You mean the dead girl?”
Tommy gave Eddie a punch to the shoulder. “Lillian is our friend. That we're surprising. With the gift. In the trunk.”
“Okay, ow.” Eddie rubbed at the spot on his shoulder, leaning in closer to Tommy. “It's a codename. Got it.”
“Anyway, I think we should get closer to the station.”
“No. We'll deal with Lillian from Fountain. It'll be fine.”
“We're gonna get caught.”
“Then we'll explain.”
“I don't know how you explain that.”
“We'll tell them,” Eddie said in an annoyed tone, “the truth. That we found the bod- Lillian and didn't want to leave her.”
“O- Okay,” the driver interrupted, coming to a stop. “We are a- at your location, sirs.”
“Great!” Tommy clapped his hands together, smiling at the driver through the rearview. “Pop the trunk for me, please. Eddie, pay the man.”
“Oh, no! No payment necessary. I- It's my gift for the night.”
“You sure?” Eddie asked.
“Mhm. Please, it's fine.”
Eddie shrugged. “Alright. Thanks! Have a good night.”
*****
“I'm never going out with you again,” Tommy said, back in position with his hands under Lillian's shins. “I should have stayed home with Evan. My back will never recover.”
“Oh please, when did you become such an old man? I'm carrying most of the weight here anyway.”
“You are not!”
“I am too!”
“Okay, I'll just let her go then. You can carry her the rest of the way yourself.”
“Don't you dare, Thomas!”
“Don't you Thomas me, Edmundo! What the hell are we gonna say when we get to the police station?”
“I'll go in first,” Eddie said. “Explain everything. You stay outside with the body until I get you.”
“Me? Why don't you stay outside with the body?”
“Because you asked me what we were going to say when we get to the police station, which means you obviously have no idea what to say, and I can just bat my eyelashes and get the lady behind the desk to listen to my every word.”
“Assuming it's a lady behind the desk is very sexist.” Tommy pulled a hand away to wipe the sweat from his hand onto his jeans, then switched to do the same with the other hand. “It could be a very handsome gay man.”
“Okay, so I bat my eyelashes at the man behind the desk. For the love of God, walk faster, Man!”
“I've been the one walking backwards this whole time, you try it! Also, no offense, but I've seen your game with women, I do not trust your game with men.”
“Don't be an ass,” Eddie glared. “I could've gotten you if I wanted you.”
“Ha! Don't flatter yourself.”
Eddie stopped, mouth agape and clearly offended. “You're seriously trying to tell me that Buck could get you by injuring me and moan about trying to get your attention, but you think I have no game? You're crazy.”
“And you're chronically single.”
“Take that back!”
“Absolutely not!”
“Tommy, I swear to-”
The sound of a siren cut Eddie off. Bright, flashing red and blue lights pulled up beside them. They froze in place.
It took a couple of seconds, but soon enough the driver's door opened. They both had to squint to make out the figure coming toward them.
Athena.
The passenger door opened as well, and there came Buck, his hands tucked inside the hoodie he was wearing.
“What the hell are you two doing?” Athena asked. “We have been chasing your behinds half the night.”
“You're not gonna believe this-” Eddie started as Tommy spoke over him.
“Evan, I swear this isn't what you think-”
“Both of you, quiet!” Athena demanded.
“It looks like you're, uh, trying to carry a body to the police station,” Buck offered.
“Then... Then it's exactly what it looks like,” Tommy breathed out in relief.
Eddie, still holding the body from underneath her arms, moved closer to Buck and Athena, forcing Tommy to move as well. “We saw her get dumped and we didn't know what to do because Tommy lost his phone and I don't have mine. We couldn't just leave her there so we decided to bring her to the station ourselves.”
“You don't have your phone, huh? And it didn't occur to either of you two walk right back into the bar and ask to use their phone?” Athena questioned. “Any phone?”
Eddie lowered his head. “Can't say that it did.”
Athena took a deep breath, letting it out slowly. “That body you're holding,” she said, pointing toward it. “That's a sex doll.”
Both Eddie and Tommy's eyes slowly turned to the doll. It took a few seconds for the realization to hit, but once it did, they both dropped it to the ground with a simultaneous, “Ew!”
“I gotta say,” Athena started, crossing her arms over her chest, “I don't usually see men your age getting drunk and pulling these types of dumbass stunts.”
“We're not drunk!” Eddie protested. “Just had a couple beers. Maybe someone drugged us!”
“I don't think so,” she answered, pulling a small memo pad from her back pocket. “We went and spoke with the bartender and he informed us you two started with a couple beers, then moved onto shots, then decided to try some specialty drinks and ended with something called a Fruity Tutti, which you apparently made up yourselves.”
“That... That does sound vaguely familiar,” Tommy said, his hands going to his hips.
Eddie smacked a couple times. “Is that why mouth tastes like an entire packet of lifesavers?”
“How did you guys find us?” Tommy asked.
“Eddie's phone.”
Eddie's eyebrows furrowed. “I told you I don't have my phone.”
“Yeah, you do,” Buck said with a nod. “It's how we tracked you.”
“Guys, I'm telling you, I do not have my phone!”
Tommy moved toward Eddie, peering around him to look in his back pocket. He reached around and grabbed at something before holding it out in front of Eddie.
“Well look at that!” Eddie smiled as he took his phone from Tommy. “My phone!”
“You butt dialed me twice,” Buck explained. “When I overheard you two talking about finding a body and trying to carry it to the police station, I figured I better give Athena a call.”
“And as it turns out,” Athena continued, “the driver from the taxi you two were in also called the police, because, and I quote, “Two men were in the backseat of my cab, loudly whispering about a body they had put in my trunk.” Poor man was too scared to call the police until you had left.”
“You two were also carrying the doll through the streets of Los Angeles on a Saturday night,” Buck informed them. “Dispatch got lots of calls from concerned citizens.”
Eddie sighed. “I didn't think anyone saw us.”
“Oh no, the majority of the county did,” Athena replied. “Come on, boys,” she said, taking a step back and waving them toward her car. “This'll all have to be explained again in the morning. Let's get you home.”
“Can I go to you guys' place?” Eddie asked, pouting. “My home is so far.”
“Your home is ten minutes from ours,” Buck reminded him. “But it's late- or early- and I'm tired, so yes, you can. Athena's gonna take us. Let's get in the SUV.”
“Oh, Evan, can we snuggle?” Tommy asked, moving toward Buck and draping an arm over his shoulder, leaning in close. “I love to snuggle.”
“Gross,” Eddie whined. “I get shoved in a guest room while you two get it on two doors down.”
“Nobody will be getting it on tonight,” Buck assured him.
“Hey, if you want snuggles you can bring Lillian,” Tommy said, gazing down at the doll. “She will give snuggles.”
When Eddie stared down at it for a bit too long, Buck reached over and gave him a smack to the back of the head. “You're not bringing the doll. Come on, let's go.” He grabbed at Eddie's shirt, pulling him away from the doll. “Now!”
*****
When Athena pulled up to Buck and Tommy's place she got out and helped bring the boys into the house. Eddie leaned on her while Tommy leaned on Buck.
They headed for the guest room first, Eddie plopping onto the bed with his shoes still on.
“Absolutely not,” Buck said, helping Tommy to rest against the doorframe so he could go over and pull off Eddie's shoes.
Once they were off, Athena helped Buck maneuver Eddie so they could pull the comforter down from under him.
“God, I'm tired,” Tommy mumbled. He toed off his own shoes and walked over the other side of the bed, falling down face first against the pillow.
“Tommy!” Buck exclaimed. “This isn't our room.”
“Sleepy, Evan,” Tommy murmured into the pillow. “So sleepy.”
“Okay, well, you can go to sleep in our room,” he replied, pulling on Tommy's arm.
Tommy groaned, causing Eddie to open one eye and glare over at Buck. “Just leave him. God, he's so whiny!”
Tommy threw his arm out, shoving over at Eddie. “You're whiny!”
Eddie reached over and shoved back. “You are!”
“Boys, I have a gun!” Athena yelled, causing them to stop immediately. They both drew their arms in and away from each other, but refused to move otherwise.
Athena looked over at Buck. “Should we try to get Tommy up?” she asked.
Both boys breathing had already started to even out, clearly falling into a deep sleep.
“Eh, leave him,” Buck decided, tossing the comforter over them. “They can puke on each other.”
.

**tags/spoilers: there is no actual death involved in this story. the boys are very drunk.**

MY (40M) BOYFRIEND? (33M) IS IN LOVE WITH HIS BEST FRIEND (36M) AND IM THE THIRD WHEEL
I'm new to this reddit stuff, but a coworker suggested it, and I thought I'd give it a try. I probably should start saying he's not really my boyfriend??? We just started dating a few weeks ago, and it's been... interesting. But I really like him and he is a nice, sweet guy.
He recently came out, so I've been trying to be patient and understanding. But recently it's been hard to spend any time alone because his best friend is always there.
Now, I also like the guy, so I don't really mind, and to be honest, I kinda suspected from the first moment they were in love with each other. They both talk about each other all the time, and when we hang out together, I can't help but feel like intruding on an intimate moment I shouldn't be part of.
Like, our second date was at his sister's wedding and the best friend spent most of the time glued to our side. He has a son who my date adores, so they danced together for most of the party as well. It was cute, but again: it felt like intruding on a private moment.
Then we had a relaxing night at his place, eating take out on his couch and watching a movie.... when the best friend just, came in. No notice, no knocking. He has a key to the place and he just walked in. It was awkward at first but we insisted it wasn't a big deal so he stayed for tge rest of the night.
By the time I was leaving, my date was telling him to just get comfortable on the couch.
Another thing is. My date? Situationship? I don't know how to call it anymore. Well, I recently found out that he is the legal guardian of his best friend 's kid? In case anything happens? I wouldn’t find this weird at all if it wasn't for the fact this man has parents and sisters and other close family members that also have a less chance of dying along with him on the job. (They work together.)
Also. Recently, the best friend broke up with his girlfiend and called this guy in the middle of our date. So, he crashed again.
All of this to say, I'm not really hurt? This was new and sure, I like the guy. But to be honest my expectations were low. This is fairly recent, so it's not like my heart is broken and I just lost the love of my life. No, that's not the problem.
I just don't think these two know they're in love with each other, and it’s starting to get really uncomfortable for me. Should I say something? Should I talk with my date about it or just break things off and keep it vague, but that we should still be friends? Should I talk with both of them at the same time and confront the situation?
This is a situation I don't even know how to begin to get a handle on. Does anyone know where I should start?
rctherpcliarredditor • commented 1d ago
to be honest, i don't really have any advice for you. i just find this gay drama really hilarious. thoughts and prayers for you, my man 🙏🏼🙏🏼
twohottakes • commented 6hrs ago
definitely have a conversation alone with your date. point all of this out to him and tell him you don't wanna get in the middle if there's deeper feelings involved for someone else. all the luck to you, man!
storyreddit23 • commented 2hrs ago
talk to ur date!! and pls, post an update if u do. i wanna know how this ends.
