A Calendar, $100 and a Bad Idea by @evandiaz-buckley
“Let me get this straight,” Eddie said slowly, “you bet Hen $100 you’d make this year’s fire fighter calendar but you failed to read the entry form which states the theme is fire fighter couples?”
Eddie agrees to be Buck’s fake boyfriend despite knowing he is hopelessly in love with his best friend and it’s a terrible idea.
a touch too close by @theleftboobgrabber
Eddie was always in his space, and Buck was always in his. Piled up on couches; pressed close at the diner table, forearms touching, glued from thigh to ankle; hugging hello and goodbyes; shoving at each other after a shower; always a hand on each other back, shoulder, waist; always touching.
And it had been fine. Great. Until it turned too much.
A Truth About Eddie by @tabbytabbytabby
After two and a half years of being friends with Eddie, Buck discovers a startling truth about him.

Evan Buckley, though? He was Eddie’s kryptonite. His weakness. One look at that innocent face and those puppy eyes and the words would just tumble out of Eddie’s mouth like he had no control of it, like he’d been temporarily possessed by a very flirty demon who liked tall, blonde, pretty guys named Evan.
Lately, Eddie can’t seem to get his mouth to stop betraying him.

Buck smiles softly. “I love you too, Eddie.”
Frustration rallies and Eddie shifts, pushing himself up until they’re level with one another again. “No,” he says firmly. “You don’t understand. I said I love you, Buck.”
Buck’s smile widens, his eyes going soft and fond. “Eddie…” he says, warmth filling his voice. “I know.”

“This candidate. Evan Buckley. He, uh, needs someone to reign him in.”
“What do you mean?” Eddie asked.
“Oh, you’ll see.”
And see, Eddie did.
Nearly two years before Buck is elected to the presidency, Eddie is assigned to lead his Secret Service detail. Like, love, hate, and mutual annoyance ensue, though not necessarily in that order.

Eddie knows he has feelings for Buck, and he’d be crazy to miss the signs that Buck felt that way about him too. He doesn’t miss the flirting, the quick glances. He knows they always make bullshit excuses to be together. always standing a little too close for just friends, always holding on to each other longer than just friends should.
But he knows there’s a fine line between feeling something and then acting on it and that’s a line Eddie thinks he’d never be able to cross.

“Maddie, I made Chris a promise and I can’t finish this list. There’s no way I’m going to get away with all of this.”
“Really though?” Maddie said, and Buck could almost see her playfully doubtful expression. “You don’t think you might be over-exaggerating just a little?”
“Maddie, the list says to kiss Eddie.”
