Buck and Eddie were meeting up with the firehouse fam at Bobby’s and Athena’s to announce their newly formed relationship. After Bobby died, (before his resurrection), When Eddie came for the funeral Buck and Eddie started to talk a bit and at the end of their talk, with some yelling, they kissed. But so much has been going on with the resurrection and May coming out a lesbian that they decided to keep it a secret for a while, but today they are telling everyone.
Buck hums to the music playing in the car trying to soothe his anxieties about telling everyone.
Eddie looks over at Buck with a fond smile, “Hey, It’ll be okay. I bet they have been waiting for us to say something to be honest”, he says with a chuckle.
Buck groans and tilts his head back, “ I know it's just..i'm more worried for you i mean do they even know you're gay?”
“ehhh probably. Maybe. I am pretty gay.”
Buck purses his lips, “Yeah I mean that mustache was really gay..”
Eddie rolls his eyes fondly, “Yeah and you know what else is pretty gay of me?”
“What?”, Buck smirks.
“Hmm well I have a boyfriend and he's really hot, and he's got these giant muscles!”
Buck gasps, “Omg! You're cheating! Oh Eddie, how could you!”
Eddie shrugs, “I'm sorry. He's too hot.”
“..You are talking about me right?”
“Yes Buck.”, He laughs.
“Y-yeah I knew that”.
Eddie grabs Bucks hand rubbing his thumb over it, “I love you.”
Buck's eyes soften, “I love you too”.
“Now we have to get to the house or we're gonna be late.”
Buck looks down at his watch and-
“Oh shit! Man this is your fault for distracting me”.
“I'm too hot”, Eddie shrugs, “Now drive.”
_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•
“We're here!” Buck exclaims loudly, no one commenting on how Eddie and Buck arrived together.
Maddie rolls her eyes and goes in to hug her brother, “Seriously Buck? You're an hour late.”
“But! I was helping Eddie drive Christopher to Carlas.”
Maddie looks at him with a knowing look before greeting Eddie. Buck looks over at him and they both nod. It's time. They’re telling everyone.
Eddie walks over and grabs Buck's hand and they walk outside to where everyone is, (except the kids), And Buck clears his throat.
“Um everyone? me and Eddie have something to say.”
“Omg its time! it's time!” Buck thinks he hears Chimney say.
“Me and Buck are”, Lifts up there conjoined hands, “Together.”
“YESSS FINALLY- wait. When?”, Chimney asks.
“Chimney, is that really important?” Bobby questions.
“uh , yes!! We have to know who won the bet?!”
Buck and Eddie gasp, “What bet?!”, they say at the same time.
Hen clears her throat, “Allow me to explain. We all decided to bet on the weeks you guys would get together. And whoever got it right would get 10,000 dollars.”
Buck laughs, “Of course you all would do that. Well we got together like after Bobby's funeral.”
Chimney groans, “Athena and Bobby win”.
Athena smiles, “Of course I did. And now that that's over with”, Walks over to Buck and Eddie, ”Congratulations you guys.”
“Yes congrats!!”, Hen and Karen scream.
“Wait guys ... .weren't they already together…? And married?!”, Ravi exclaims in confusion.
“uh no?”.
Everyone starts laughing.
“But then why does Christopher look like Buck…?”.
Buck sputters, “W-what?…He doesn't..”
Eddie humms, “Now that I think about it…”
“Well it's nice to know you guys are together because now you can wear matching pride month clothes!!” Hen says.
“Oh yeah, that's tomorrow huh?” Eddie totally forgot about that.
“Yep! Me and Karen are wearing matching shirts. Mines saying, ‘Im hers’ and hers says, ‘shes mine’.”
Buck laughs, “That's perfect! So are we going to a parade?”
Hen nods, “And everyone is coming. The kids too if you want to bring christopher?”
Eddie nods, “Yeah we’ll bring him”, Looking at Buck with heart eyes.
“Okay…! Please stop with the heart eyes!”, Hen exclaims.
Maddie looks at Buck, “I'm so happy for you Evan”, She hugs Buck.
Buck smiles, “Thanks Mads.”
“Now both of you come here and tell us the whole story.”
And so they did.
_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•
It's the start of Pride Month!! So Buck, Eddie, and Christopher drive to the meet up place. Buck is wearing a mesh shirt with a bi colored flag on his face. Eddie is wearing a shirt that says ‘im gay’ on it and the gay flag on his face. While Chris is wearing an ‘I love my gay dads’ shirt.
They meet everyone else.
“Hey everyone!”, Buck exclaims.
Everyone exchanges there greetings before they start walking to the parade.
Eddie was nervous for a second that everyone would think him saying he was gay because he had a wife, but no one said anything.
He grabs Bucks hand and squeezes it. He loves this man.
Buck looks at him and squeezes his hand back.
“See? I told you none of them would care.”
Eddie sighs, “I know.”, rubs Buck's hand.
“Were here everyone," Bobby explains.
“Wow, look at all the rainbows!!” Chrisophers says excited.
“Right superman! Super cool.”, Buck smiles.
They all cheer and sing around before the kids fall asleep.
Maddie decides to stay back with them since Bobby (Her newborn), is a newborn and says bye to everyone hoping they have a nice time.
They all arrive at a gay karaoke bar and Buck grins, “It's my time to shine! Come on babe”, he grabs Eddie's hand and they go on the stage.
They sing ‘Born This Way’ by Lady Gaga and kiss at the end of the song.
Everyone downs some shots, except Bobby of course, and soon everyone is a bit tipsy. Buck especially, he grabs Eddie and brings him to the dance floor holding his hips.
“Wanna dance?” He says moving his hips against Eddie.
Eddie startled at first smirks, “hm. Would my boyfriend approve?”
“Of course he would! I'm your boyfriend Eddie!”, Buck says in a giggle fit.
Eddie smiles, “I know.”
Eddie grabs Bucks arms and moves with him, then places his forehead against Bucks looking deep in his eyes.
“I love you Cariño.”
Buck looks happy he giggles at that and grabs Eddie's cheeks, “I love you more.”
“Nope! I love you more.”
Buck pouts then gasps like he remembers something.
“Nuh uh! b-because I got you”, Buck walks over to Hen goes through he jacket and she looks confused at first before she goes pale and tries to get Buck before reaching Eddie, “this ring!” He puts it in the air high and Eddie's heart flips.
“h-huh?”, Eddie can't believe it Buck wants to marry him.
“I want to marry you Eds! You're the most amazing father and boyfriend ever. I feel like we were meant to be and I know you don't believe in those things, but I feel like we're soulmates.”, Buck gets on his knees, “Your so kind, beautiful, hot etc! I just- want to marry you!”
Eddie sees everyone looking and Hen sighing with a smile like she knew this would happen.
“Buck..your drunk.”, Eddie laughs
“But I'm serious. Even if I hadnt meant to do it this…so drunk”, He chuckles.
Eddie fondly smiles, “Of course I’ll marry you, Buck.”
Buck gets off the floor and places the ring on Eddie's finger then goes in for the kiss (probably forgetting everyone there because he uses tongue).
“YEAHHHHHHHH”, Chimney screams a teeny bit drunk himself!
He runs up to Eddie and jumps on him, “We got ourselves some buckleys!! and they are both hot!”
“Okay Chim, I think it might be time for us all to go home.”, Hen laughs while Athena and Bobbys agree.
Everyone starts leaving but Buck grabs Eddie's hand.
“I’ll always have you back.”
Eddie smiles, “And I’ll have yours.”
…
“Now let's get you home you're super drunk.”
