Summary
“Which do you think makes you feel most loved?”
Eddie thought for a long moment. Too long, maybe. Then he shrugged, “Honestly, Buck? I have no idea.”
Buck’s brows pinched up. “What do you mean? When have you felt the most loved?”
“Don’t make a big thing of this, Buck. Promise?”
Buck made a show of crossing his heart, brows still raised curiously.
“I’m not sure I’ve ever… really felt loved in a relationship? I’m not convinced that I know what makes me feel loved…”
OR -
After finding out that Eddie doesn't know what his love language is, Buck sets about finding out for him. He begins a five week experiment, one for each love language, to figure out which will make Eddie feel the most loved.

Summary
"Buck, why are you up?"
"I was— I was trying to reach the bathroom." Buck's eyes screw shut and his jaw clenches as a groan rips his throat. "Nauseous."
"Okay, let's go to the bathroom, okay?" Eddie tightens his hold on the younger man and pulls him close. "Lean on me."
Buck slumps further against him so Eddie can carry his weight just like he promised; he lets go of the stairwell and clings to the hem of Eddie's shirt instead.
"Come on, halfway there." Eddie encourages when Buck utters out a whimper and his lips twist down.
They take another step and the bathroom is just there within their reach but before they can make it, Buck doubles over—
"Whoa, whoa, hey—"
—and he starts to throw up on the floor.

Buck is sick. Chris and Eddie take care of him

Summary
The 118 is a close-knit family. It’s not surprising given how much time they spend together: endless hours at the firehouse, barbecues on the weekends, the occasional night at the bar.
They’re a family, yes... but Buck and Eddie don’t have to tell them everything.
They’re allowed their secrets, really, and it’s not… weird. Really, it’s not. It’s just that sometimes the 118 asks too many questions, and sometimes there’s just no good (or clear or logical) way to explain.
Exhibit A: How Buck ended up in Eddie’s bed during a sleepover (and how he’s been sleeping there most nights since).
Or: Buck and Eddie comfort each other with cuddles, hugs, and kisses (platonically—or so they think).

Summary
Still off balance, Buck slams his left heel onto the roof, heaving forward to catch the collar of that yellow shirt. And there’s no conscious decision making here. It’s all instinct, and he’s grateful for it. If he’d given his overzealous mind the chance to consider another way, he would have missed his shot. Instead, his arms hurl the boy into the hands of another survivor...
And his right foot misses the edge.
OR
Buck catches Chris before he rolls off the firetruck, and it's him who falls back into the retreating waters of the tsunami. Unconscious and seriously injured, he's unaware that his team has been searching for him, never giving up as the days pass.
