you got me shaking now (loving something that could be taken from me) by Iover_of_mine (I_almost_do)

Summary
The way Eddie keeps looking at Buck like he’s blowing things out of proportion is actually making everything worse.
Because, look, Buck knows he probably is.
Everyone is fine.
Eddie didn’t get hurt. The girl is predicted to have a full recovery, and the guy is in jail already.
And most importantly, no one got shot.
No lasting damage is going to come from that last call.
Not really.
But, fuck, Buck is still shaking.
He doesn’t shake like this after a call. Especially not after ones that ends in the best-case scenario
But all he can think about is how he was like this when he was wearing Eddie’s blood.
And that’s the real problem here.
or
Buck picks a fight after Eddie does something reckless at a call. -

Summary
The issue is that no house is good enough when the other option is Eddie and Christopher filling the house with the warmth he could never quite capture while they were in Texas.
But he can’t keep delaying it if Eddie managed to sell a whole house in the time that Buck’s been looking for an apartment.
Sure, it seems like Eddie did a great job making the place livable, enough to make the place appealing enough to get a few offers, but still, Buck needs to find a new place to live.
And it’s making him think about all those feelings he’s been ignoring since Eddie told him he was looking for houses in El Paso.
The level of hurt behind the decision to move in and let Eddie go without a fight.
Because he didn’t think he could win.
or
Buck really really doesn’t want to move out. -

Summary
Buck is tired.
He’s tired driving home.
He’s tired dropping his keys when he tries to put them on the door with half-closed eyes.
He’s tired finally walking in, putting his bag away, and taking his shoes off.
And he’s tired following Eddie’s call letting him know he’s in the kitchen, even though it’s past midnight and Buck was preparing himself to just drop into the couch and not think about anything until the morning.
So he can’t really be blamed here.
Because Eddie is glancing at him over his shoulder, a lazy smile on his face, telling Buck about how he figured that since he had texted it had been a crazy shift, he wouldn’t have had the time to eat at the station so he is just finishing dinner for him, he should just sit down and wait before turning back to the pan he has on the fire.
So Buck just crosses the kitchen, wrapping his arms around Eddie’s middle, pressing himself against his back, tucking his face against his neck before he can talk himself out of it.
Because apparently, he’s too tired to pretend he’s not in love with Eddie.
or
Buck has a long day and just says what he wants. -

Summary
There are a lot of issues with being forced to confront the idea that you might be in love with your best friend.
Eddie is Buck's favorite person, and he never wanted to look at what that meant all too closely because, well, he can't hate the fact that he can't have something if he convinces himself he doesn't want it.
So he talked himself out of it.
Twisted himself into knots to stop the thought from taking root.
But it's not like he could stop himself from letting the feeling register with Eddie standing in front of him.
When Eddie is in his reach, and somehow even more beautiful than in his memories.
FaceTime doesn't do justice to the effect Eddie has on him.
So Buck is forced to accept the fact that he is in love with him.
Probably has been for most of the time they've known each other.
So he's probably fucked.
or
Eddie is back. Buck is in love with him. He's being very normal about it. -

Summary
Buck going down is what makes Eddie move.
The immediate threat is gone, Chris is safe and in his arms, so the gravity of it all hits him like a truck as Chim, Hen, and Bobby lower Buck into the cot behind him.
It makes him adjust his grip on Christopher, getting him properly on his lap, before standing up and walking to Buck like something is pulling him.

Summary
The morning after Buck and Eddie share a bed for the first time.
-----
“I liked it,” Eddie says, pulling his thumb back just a little to coast back over Buck’s bottom lip, spreading the spit to make it shiny. “I like it.”
Buck audibly swallows. “What?” he asks, but not like he didn’t hear. Like he wants it more than he thinks he’s allowed, and so he asks, to make sure Eddie is certain.
“I missed it,” Eddie continues. “Sharing a bed with someone. Not being alone.”

Summary
Ryan, knees aching, wants to say Take a picture, it'll last you longer. It's a joke, kind of – a passing thought, sandwiched between Fuck my mouth and Please, please, please. It's a joke until it isn't, until Oliver's eyes linger on the stretch of his lips, until he pushes in and stays there, just for a beat too long, watching like he's trying to commit him to memory.
