Summary
“You’re insane,” Eddie says incredulously. “Certifiably out of your mind.”
“Eddie,” Maddie groans, not for the first time tonight. “It’s a great idea. Trust me.”
“It’s insane,” Eddie repeats, staring her down. “You’re an insane person.”
“Look, just try it,” Maddie insists, reaching out and grabbing Eddie’s phone. She unlocks the screen and opens his contacts. “I’m putting Josh’s number in here for you. He’ll help you, I promise.”
“It’s not going to work,” Eddie insists right back, watching as Maddie taps away at his phone screen. “I know you and Josh think it will, but it won’t. Buck’s not going to care.”

(Eddie can't believe he's going along with Maddie's insane plan. It's a good thing Buck does in fact care.)

Summary
“So, what do you want in a partner, then?” Buck asked quietly, bright blue eyes seeming to bore into his soul. “To get to know them first, obviously, but after that?”
Eddie sighed, and took a sip of his beer, swallowing noisily before turning back to Buck. “I dunno, someone who...someone who’s there for the good parts, but doesn’t run when things get tough. Someone who would do anything for me, and I’d do anything for them. Someone who would...” He faltered, nervously picking at the label and taking a deep breath. He hadn’t been prepared for this at all, but the way Buck was still staring at him intently, he couldn’t stop the words spilling out of his mouth. “Someone who would dig through six feet of dirt with their bare hands to save me.” Buck’s mouth dropped open slightly, and Eddie felt a warm hand on top of his.
“I didn’t know you knew about that.” He whispered. “How did you know about that?”

Summary
“And what happens when Buck finds a woman and doesn’t have much time for you anymore?”
“That’s not going to happen.” Eddie tried to reassure her.
“How do you know that, Eddie?” She badgered. “You can’t expect him to come running every time you click your fingers, maybe we should just keep Chris-”
“Because we’re together!” Eddie yelled, cutting her off abruptly.
He didn’t know where the lie had come from. As much as he wanted it to be true, it wasn’t. OK, so Buck and Tommy had called it a day on their relationship around a month and a half before, citing they wanted different things out of life, but Eddie had never broached the possibility of them dating. Mainly because he was terrified as Hell to even speak it into existence. He was totally gone for his best friend, but saying it out loud, well, that could fuck everything up between them. Everything that they’d built over the past seven years, his entire support system, could come crashing down around him.
OR
Eddie lies about his relationship with Buck to get Christopher back, and somehow convinces Buck to go along with it.

Summary
50 First Dates AU
“It still sounds like a nightmare. You know, starting over every day. Always doing the same thing, making the same mistakes. Never having a chance to learn or make a different decision. Shouldn't it be when you're at your worst, they're at their worst, you have every reason to give up, and you still decide you want to try again?”
-Evan Buckley, Season 5 Episode 18OR
After the ladder truck bombing, Buck loses the ability to form and maintain new memories. Every day is a new challenge but everything changes when Eddie Diaz joins the 118, one year later than he was supposed to.

Summary
“Buck, please,” Eddie sobs. “I can’t watch you go, too.”
Buck’s eyes snap back open, and for one miraculous second, Eddie thinks he’ll be able to stay conscious. He can see the implication dawn in Buck’s eyes—even in the dark, even with the space between them, even with the threat of death knocking, ready to swipe them both.
Buck coughs and heaves, trying to catch his breath.
“No, Evan, please.” Eddie chokes on his own tears. “Hang on.”
—
Buck and Eddie have confronted death before, each of them learning what it might be like without the other. They’ve avoided talking about it for fear of exposing what it’s revealed within themselves. But then they’re trapped together, with no way out, except a choice and a sacrifice to be made.

Summary
Eddie is emotionally and physically unprepared for the sight that greets him. The tiny cat is perched on Buck's shoulder. She scrambles down his bicep onto his forearm, then climbs up his other arm to perch on the other shoulder. She looks so tiny against Buck’s massive arms. Eddie all but swoons when Buck tilts his head down to snuggle his cheek against the kitten's miniature face. Eddie might die. He’s going to fucking die. His best friend holds her so carefully, still flushed and giggly and pleased. She paws at his face, and he tries to lean away. When she dramatically loses her balance, he catches her in one of his palms.
“I see you two are getting acquainted.” Eddie says his voice comes out rough and raspy, drawing Buck’s attention as he cradles Eddie’s cat in his hands.
“You didn’t tell me you got a cat!”

Mrs. Young smiled. “As teachers, we don't get to sit down and talk one on one with each child as much as they deserve. This assignment always grants me a beautiful insight to my students. Their proudest accomplishments, their darkest moments, or even some facts I've never known.”
She lifted a hand to her heart. “So with that, I would like all of you hear from one of the most beautiful essays I've had the pleasure of reading, from one of the-” she sighed. “-funniest kids I've met. Please welcome Christopher Diaz.”
...Christopher smiled into the microphone. "My name is Christopher Diaz. Here's my essay."
"Dear abandoning dead Mom."

Summary

Plus, his dad and Chimney are having whirlwind romances of their own. It’s all great, except… he’s still living in his ex(?) girlfriend’s apartment, the new firefighter’s wife is dragging her heels on their divorce, and oh, his dad may be lying about everything that happened twenty-two years ago which led to Buck’s adoption.
It seems like every week, their firehouse is responding to yet another kidnapping, and the feeling that his dad is keeping secrets grows. From missing documents to laced brownies to nosy reporters and even little black books, the evidence mounts and finally forces Buck to decide: pull on the thread and make his whole world unravel, or continue to stitch everything back together and give up ever knowing the truth.
Buck pulls on the thread.

“Diaz, I’m begging you, tell me you understand,” Lyle says, entirely not above begging at this point.
Diaz doesn’t say a word, and Lyle groans.
He’s actually kind of desperate, because he absolutely cannot risk having to listen to Buckley and Diaz go on about how much they love each other ever again.
“You already know you’re in love with Buckley. I’m telling you Buckley is in love with you. You’re going to…” Lyle trails off, gesturing for Diaz to finish the sentence.
“I’m going to propose to Buck,” Diaz says without hesitation this time.
And that’s not—
That’s not exactly what Lyle was going for?

“Sure, I love the zoo.” Chris is saying with that perfectly adorable giggle that makes Eddie want to melt whenever he hears it—which is far too infrequently these days. “My dad takes me there all the time.”
Eddie’s head snaps up at that, quick and sharp. His fingers go numb and he scrambles uselessly with the tongs as they fall with a loud clatter against the grill.
Because Eddie can count the times he’s been to the zoo on one hand.
It’s Buck who’s been taking Christopher there nearly once a week for years.

Summary
“I have Buck in my Will,” Eddie blurts suddenly, startling Bobby a little. “If something were to happen to me on a call, he becomes Chris’ guardian.”
Bobby is glad they’re currently stuck in traffic because he’s pretty sure they would have needed to pull over so he could fully absorb the information Eddie has just offered him.
“Wow,” Bobby manages after grasping at words uselessly for a full minute.
Eddie laughs, but it sounds a little flat. He massages his temples. “This was not how I was expecting to spend my morning.”
Bobby huffs out a laugh, accelerating gently when the gridlock finally creeps forward. He pulls onto another side street, taking the long way towards the hospital. It would be faster than using any more of the main roads.
“When did you decide that?” Bobby asks finally. Eddie wasn't bringing it up because he enjoys sharing information; he was a private person. He's brought it up because he wants to talk about it, and he trusts Bobby with this.

“What’s this?” asks Buck, picking up a pamphlet from the loft’s kitchen counter.
“I’m pretty sure you can read, Buck,” answers Chim, popping his gum. Usually, Buck wouldn’t be irritated by that, but Chim’s the interim captain due to Bobby’s cruise, and everything gets on his nerves.
“I can read,” Buck huffs. “I’m just confused. How does this work?”
He looks down at the pamphlet again. The deep red letters that say, are you a first responder looking for a buddy who understands your woes? — Fireapp’s got you covered!
