Summary
"Yeah, well, we have—moved on." Eddie's expression didn’t soften. "You should too, Buck."
He deflated, the fight draining out of him. For the first time since they met, Buck felt like he was staring at a stranger.
“Uh— yeah I get it,” he finally said. “And I really am sorry.”
He watched as Eddie's figure retreated.
If Buck had stayed quiet, maybe he could have kept pretending that time would heal this wound. After that disaster of a conversation, Buck wasn't sure it ever would.
He stood there, windows forgotten, feeling something he’d known his whole life shift into place.
Buck never thought Eddie would be the one to show him he was right.
Or
A Buck and Eddie post-lawsuit fic.

Summary
After the lawsuit, Buck drifts a little.
Or maybe it was before that. Maybe it it was even before the truck bombing. Maybe it was before he ever left home.
And not the kind of drifting where he's lost. The kind where he can blink and its been a week. The kind where he can go days without showering or eating or working out without even realizing. The kind where sometimes he sleeps for 24 hours and other times he sleeps for 2. The kind where he can't focus on thinking most of the time, but when he does it hurts and spirals and bites. The kind where he just wants to be alone, but knows he doesn't want to feel lonely.
The kind where he pulls away and folds himself up until he can disappear.

Summary
Buck licked his lips, his next words coming out broken and pitiful. “Can you kiss me?”
Eddie tilted his head and kissed the corner of Buck’s jaw. “Here?” He asked playfully.
He made a considering noise, “Or, how about…here?” He said, then kissed the opposite side of Buck’s face, chastely pecking his cheek.
“Or, I know,” He teased, “Here,” He said, so tenderly that Buck’s chest cracked open wide, splitting neatly down the middle. He pressed his lips to the spot above Buck’s left brow, right where his birthmark was. Buck’s eyes fluttered shut, giving Eddie access to kiss where his birthmark continued under his brow.
Or, the one where Buck finds out he's pregnant after Eddie has left for El Paso, and messiness ensues.

Summary
“I leave in a week,” Eddie said quietly. “Minimum Five-month deployment.”
The spoon clattered against the counter, the sharp sound cutting through the air. Buck’s jaw tightened, his eyes narrowing with something too tangled to be just anger. “Five months? You were supposed to be done in three. No more deployments…We were supposed to finally settle down. Put down some roots. Be on the same fucking continent for more than a few months at a time.”
Or, They survived deployments and the kind of chaos only Buck could attract. Falling in love should’ve been the easy part. Now married and raising Christopher, they’ve finally built the family they once only dreamed about…except Eddie’s been deployed again, and long-distance is proving tougher than any mission.
