    Summary

    “Would you fire me?” Eddie follows up, because now he’s burning with desire to know. “If you were captain and I pulled something like that?”

    “I would never fire you.”

    “Why not?” Eddie folds his arms and quirks an eyebrow. “What about the chain of comm—”

    “If you say chain of command, I will crash the car,” Buck interjects.

    908 coda. Eddie stops keeping some secrets of his own, he and Buck talk, and Eddie discovers that fear may very well be the thief of joy.

    Summary

    “You’re single too, Buck,” Eddie snaps.

    “Yeah, by choice,” Buck says defensively.

    Tommy’s choice,” Ravi mutters over the lip of his beer bottle.

    Buck’s eyes cut over to Ravi as Eddie huffs out a laugh. “Not exactly,” he says before he can think better of it.

    Eddie pauses with his beer halfway to his mouth, one eyebrow quirked at Buck. “What does that mean?”

    Summary

    "I - uh," Buck stammers. "Sorry, I'm a little nervous."

    "Yeah," Eddie huffs softly. "Me too."

    "I think this is my last first kiss," Buck admits, not looking away from Eddie for even a second. The deep, familiar brown of his eyes is grounding.

    "I know it's mine," Eddie says quietly.

    ~

    or, one night a quiet conversation on Eddie's couch leads Buck and Eddie in a direction neither of them anticipate - especially Buck.

    Summary

    "Please tell me you aren't seriously apologizing to me for crying right now."

    Buck swallows and ducks his head, suddenly sheepish. Half a moment later, a warm, solid weight materializes on his shoulder. Eddie's palm radiates heat through the thick fabric of Buck's sweater. It's instantly grounding.

    "You're allowed to cry, Buck," Eddie says quietly. "We've been through a lot today."

    "It's not fair when we're arguing," Buck mumbles, refusing to look up.

    Eddie sighs, his grip on Buck's shoulder tightens, his thumb pressing in against Buck's collarbone. "We're best friends. You never have to pretend with me."

    ~

    or, after the intervention and going to the hospital with Hen, Buck and Eddie return home to have a long overdue conversation.
