Summary
Eddie couldn’t help but picture himself where the older man stood, imagining how he’d be shaking like a leaf, nervous as sin, and excited as hell to be there. How he’d be smiling at his guests, his friends and family, before feeling his heart swell and his smile grow when the music changed and Buck started toward him, Maddie’s hands resting on the crook of his elbow as she prepared to give him away.
He would be teary-eyed as the pair made it down to him, easily accepting Buck’s hands after Maddie kissed both their cheeks.
Or: Eddie does not hold his peace when the officiant says “Speak now”.

Summary
The pain was keeping him alert, adrenaline of the situation keeping him moving as the doors finally opened and he stumbled into the metal box, gracelessly collapsing against the wall and towards the ground.
Before the doors could fully close, however, they were pushed open by a hand that Eddie would recognize anywhere.
Buck.
Or: The speculation fic for the elevator scene in episode 9x18.

Summary
The two texts came in almost simultaneously.
Eddie
Can you come over?Chris
I need ur helpThere had been no hesitation on his part, with Buck grabbing his keys and immediately headed for South Bedford Street. While he wasn’t panicked since no one had actually called him, he was on high alert, not exactly sure what he was about to step into. For both the Diaz boys to message though, he had some idea and hoped that he was wrong.

Chris doesn’t end up in Texas, but with Buck. Which leaves Buck to navigate surprise parenthood, feelings realizations, crazy parents, and his best friend all at once.

Summary
The drive home was quieter, Chris barely awake in the backseat and the window rolled down slightly. Buck hadn’t repeated what him and Chris talked about but had assured him that he was okay and it was nothing that Chris wouldn’t tell him on his own. There was no doubt when he said it, like it was a foregone conclusion that Chris would come around.
Eddie let his thoughts wander as he drove the familiar route, the same route he had been driving for nearly three years. The house to the apartment, the apartment to the house; he could probably do it in his sleep. He thought about Ana, about how he liked her, how he could envision bringing her back to Texas to meet his parents and how they’d approve of her.
But it didn’t warm him the way he thought it would, or should.
Or: After picking Christopher up from Buck’s, Eddie can’t help but to wonder if he missed something in his Captain’s advice.

Summary
“How did you do it? When it was Maddie?”
“Which time? When Dispatch was held hostage or when Amber kidnapped her?”
“Either? Both. I was just… so sure that I wouldn’t find him, or I’d be too late. Just to realize I wasn’t even looking for the right people.”
Or: Eddie and Chim have a conversation about their respective Buckley getting kidnapped, which includes the feelings when they were found. It leads to some retrospection and a realization.

Summary
“And, um, how long have you been in love with me?”
“Honestly? Probably for years.”
Years, he watches Buck mouth the word. His eyes slip past Eddie, his expression turning slightly dazed as he tries to process this new information.
“But I only realized it now.”
Buck’s eyes flick back to him, eyebrows shooting up in surprise. “Now?”
“Yeah, like, right now.” He looks down at the watch on his wrist, cocking his head back and forth. “About five minutes ago, give or take.”
“You realized you’re in love with me while watching me wipe chocolate off Theo’s face?” Buck huffs out a laugh, looking down at the now dirty wet wipe still clutched in his hands in disbelief.
Or, Eddie realizes he's in love with Buck on a Wednesday afternoon. This is how that goes.

Summary
The doctor tilts her head to the only source of warmth in the cold, hospital room. “And who’s he?”
Buck’s eyes drift to Eddie, hungry for the sight of him. They fall upon the tense line of Eddie’s shoulders, the firm press of otherwise plump lips, watching like the very air in his lungs depend on Buck’s answer.
“That’s Eddie,” Buck answers, and the smile sneaks up on him. “Eddie Diaz. My partner.”
There. Relief washes through Eddie in a visible wave: his shoulders drop, features relaxing with the soft push of an exhale. Buck warms at the sight. Right answer.

A polysemy is a word with multiple, related meanings. The word partner, for example, can mean close friendship, a teammate, a co-parent. To someone else, it can also mean a lover.Bookmarked by Gingerific

Summary
“Ed—Eddie…th-think I mess-messed up,” he slurred. His voice was breathy, like he didn’t have the energy to make his voice work.
Fear clamped around Eddie's heart like a vice. Ice formed in his bones, crawling down the length of his spine.
“What happened, Buck? Where are you, are you home?”
“H-home, yeah,” he mumbled. “Think I…th-think I took too many. Don’t…f-feel good.”
Or: Buck accidentally overdoses on prescription medications
