can i entice anyone with more of the thing I said was due this week amnesia!Buck?
You- I- no way. Uh uh.” He pauses to wipe his eyes.
It takes a moment for the giggles and chuckling to slowly die down and trail off. For Buck to look again and realize Eddie's not doing the same.
"Okay, look, you can, uh, cut the act now.” Buck averts his gaze to the thin hospital blanket, pulling at a loose thread. “You-you're either really good at this or.”
Their eyes meet again and Eddie can tell something is shifting. Hopefully, it's only a matter of moments now.
"Shit. You're, uh, you’re serious.”
Eddie shrugs. “Afraid so.”
"You and me. We're… married?”
"For a year and half, give or take. Bobby officiated, if you're wondering. Your sister was-”
“Stop.” Buck works to swallow, eyes shining with unshed tears as he holds a trembling hand out, pleading for silence. Quietly then, voice cracking, he asks, “Maddie?”

“H- hey, Eddie?” Buck asks, his voice remarkably steady given their current situation. and for a while you’ll be all mine (T | 969 | it's the end of the world- what better time to confess you're in love with your bestie?)
“Eddie?” while I'm runnin' out of time (T | 693 | 9x18 spec fic; Eddie's sure he's dying this time when he calls Maddie to warn the group at the hospital)
"Come on, Eddie! Cake!" Evan says, flashing a gap toothed grin and pulling him by the arm. your heart's got a story with mine (T | 3.9k | The love story of Buck and Eddie's shared birthdays over the decades)
"Hold me, please?" Buck’s all loose-limbed dead weight where he's slumped against Eddie in the back of the Uber. but I can be the one to hold on (T | 673 | Buck is drunk and sleepy. Eddie pines.)
Eddie Diaz is ecstatic when his parents announce a surprise family trip to the beach. run to the water (and find me there) (M | 43.6k (so far) | When Eddie Diaz is just eleven years old, he meets the love of his life (even if he doesn't know it yet) when a swimming accident leads to meeting a curious merboy with a blue tail and a funny pink mark on his forehead. They form a bond that runs deeper than either of them realizes, leading to a lifelong connection that will bring them back together over and over again.)
Bad beat: Losing a bet you should have won. Especially used when the betting result is decided late in the game to change the side that covers the spread. bad beat (T | 439 | Chim loses a bet and adds it to his list of reasons to be pissed off Bobby died.)
"It's a real shame about your boss, Evan." you don't get to tell me about sad (T | 1.2k | Chim, Maddie and Buck have dinner with the Buckley parents in the wake of Bobby's funeral. It goes about as well as you'd expect.)
“Me?!” Eddie hisses, pointing a finger accusingly at Buck’s chest. “How is any of this my fault?” angels, demons, and plagues (oh my) (T | 676 | Buddie as two celestial exes. That's the fic.)
He can do this. He wants to. These are his friends. His family. His people. Frankly, after a shitty week at dispatch running the LAFD Twitter account, he deserves to be here. honey, when you call my name (E | 12.6k | set in 5b. Eddie sees Buck kiss Lucy. Buck won't let up about why Eddie didn't show up at the bar. They fuck about it.)
Lucy drapes one arm around Natalia, burying her nose in her hair. Nat smells like the overpriced mousse from the salon. Like sweat and sex. She smells like Lucy. stay here honey (i don't wanna share) (E | 1.8K | Lucy and Natalia fuck. They don't date or spend the night or make it anything more than it is. But maybe their situationship is due for an update.)
