Summary
Buck rocks the crying baby in his arms, tears gathering in his own eyes. Every hiccuping sob is like a knife to his heart.
The loft is dark and still around him, the creaking of the glider and Carter’s cries the only sounds. His neighbors must hate him right now, in this nebulous time after midnight and before dawn.
He can’t do this. This was—
He can’t do this.
Holding Carter against his shoulder, he fumbles his phone out of the pocket of his sweats and swipes it on, going to his contacts. It rings for what feels like an hour before Maddie picks up.
“Buck? What—”
“I shouldn’t have done this,” he interrupts, the guilt of calling her in the middle of the night washing away in the relief of hearing her voice. “Maddie, I shouldn’t have done this.” He’s aware of his growing hysteria but lacks the energy to tamp it down.
OR: Buck feels overwhelmed after deciding to foster a baby boy. Luckily, he has Maddie--and Eddie--to help him out.

Summary
What do you do when you're the sole clueless observer of a grief response gone wrong?
What do you do when you stumble upon the fragments of a ghost's memories and possessions squirreled away and haunting your home?
What do you do when you blunder into the ability to harness the power of thinking and speaking someone back into begrudging form?
I knew you, Eddie thinks. I KNOW you. I believe in you. I need you. Come back.

Summary
Type-A-Thon rolls his eyes – rolls his eyes! – and holds up the phone, shaking it for emphasis as his mouth falls into a thinly pressed line. Eddie finally gives in and lets his gaze drop to the brightly lit screen in front of him.
DEAF
Eddie blinks, his eyes rising to meet the man’s amused gaze. The man turns his head slightly, just enough to expose his ear, and it takes Eddie less than a second to realize that the “Airpods” aren’t actually Airpods.
The man has hearing aids.
It’s right then that Eddie almost wishes those bullets had done their job in Afghanistan.
Nice going, Diaz, he thinks dryly. He can almost hear Abuela’s tutting in his ears as he mouths, “Sorry.” The man just shrugs and smiles that adorably shy smile at him again.
Dios, he’s screwed.
--------
Or, the one where Eddie is a barista, Buck is his new favorite customer, and the 118 is way too nosy for their own good.
Now rewritten!

Summary
“Victim is Charles Dumont. Three gunshot wounds to the chest. Looks like an attempted robbery. There was a case of bourbon with a bottle missing and we found Charlie’s wallet tossed a few blocks from here. And Eddie?” Athena stopped just as she got to the door and turned him with a serious expression on her face. “There’s a witness.”
Her frown dipped under the professional mask she was known for and Eddie caught the flicker of concern pulling at her composure.
“You know him?”
Athena pressed her lips into a tight line and nodded.
“Evan Buckley. He’s the bartender here. He was helping Charlie restock tonight when he heard a noise and saw it happen.”
Homicide Detective, Eddie Diaz, is called in to investigate the murder of a local shield and ladder bar owner. There he meets his only witness, Evan "Buck" Buckley.

Summary
The thing about Eddie was that he was smarter than most people gave him credit for.
And yes, maybe feelings weren't his strongest suit, but he had to be blind not to realize his own for his best friend.
It was old news, really.or
Eddie is aware that he's in love with Buck. He is just trying to be a good friend and, well, if that includes telling him how much he is loved and appreciated? He can be cool about it.- Language:

Summary
"Hear me out," Buck said. "Clearly, both of us are sick of dating other people. And we're a good fit, in pretty much every way that matters. So what if we're not in love? We don't need to be in love to be happy together."
Eddie frowned. "So basically, we'd be boyfriends, without benefits?"
"Yes!" Buck snapped his fingers. "Like platonic boyfriends! We'd get all the benefits of a relationship and none of the heartbreak."
And maybe Eddie had finally lost his mind, or maybe it was from all the alcohol clouding his judgment, but the idea of it didn't sound half as crazy as it should have.
***
After Buck’s and Eddie’s dates both end with disasters – proving once again that maybe dating just wasn’t meant for them – they decide to simply settle for each other. If there was one person in the world they'd ever trust with their hearts, it was each other. And who was a better person to date other than your very own best friend?Series

Summary
Derek knows he’s staring, knows he should stop, drag his focus back to his daughter and not this—this stranger, gorgeous as he is with his slight upturned nose and bright eyes, lips that Derek is going to see in his dreams and long fingers folded into a fist that his jaw rests on. He should stop staring but he feels punch-drunk, knocked off his feet by the overwhelming attraction he feels, blood pumping so fast he can hear it rushing in his ears, can feel it in his pulse points.
The guy turns his head to look up at Derek and winks—winks, and Derek gets a glimpse of a black bar that pierces through the end of his eyebrow, and he realizes he really needs to grab Evie and get out of there when he starts wondering if this guy has a tongue piercing to go along with the rest, or just how far across his broad shoulders the tattoos go, if they stretch all the way down his tapered hips, lines like a map for Derek to follow with his tongue.

Summary
Buck didn’t like him at first.
Eddie Diaz was all hard lines and strict rules with a bone structure that could cut through glass and scared away his fans. Which... if you asked Bobby, was the point but still!
He also yelled at Buck which was fine. It’s not like it hurt his feelings.
It didn’t.
It didn’t, Maddie!
It also definitely didn’t turn Buck on either. Nope.
Stop it, Maddie!
After a traumatizing home invasion, Bobby Nash decides to hire a bodyguard for his lead singer.
