    Summary

    What if Buck finally realized after the humiliating blowout, on how Eddie said what was wrong, how he made everything about himself and how Eddie called him exhausting throughout the years they were friends (yes, past tense) and abandoned his plans to sublet Eddie’s place. He still needed a place to live and managed to find a run-down place in North Hollywood that needed TLC.

    This is a story where Buck builds back his life one step at a time and heals himself.

    Summary

    The tipping point between treading water and drowning for Buck was four words scrawled on a neatly folded piece of paper: Went to the airport.

    Buck runs away, unable to handle his grief without spilling it all over the people he loves. He runs until he meets a stranger in a bar who opens up a whole new world for him.

    -

    Or the one where Buck runs into Dean Winchester in a Bar, finds out the supernatural is real the hard way, gains a few more family members, and figures out a way to save his dad.

    Summary

    Ever since the incident in college that forced him to drop out, Buck has been lost. Life has become one party after the other, one job after the other, one relationship after the other. But a chance encounter with firefighter Eddie Diaz irrevocably changes the course of his life forever.

    Summary

    “Buck,” Hen said, her voice effectively cutting through his thoughts. “You’re spiraling. Stop it.”

    “Wow, thanks Hen,” he deadpanned, tipping his head back on the couch to look up at the ceiling. “I’ll be sure to do that.”

    -or-

    Eddie has hobbies and friends outside of the 118- we all know this. Apparently Buck just found out. He's being totally normal about it (no he's not)

    Summary

    Buck has lived his whole life in grayscale— drifting, unseen, unloved, uncaring that he wasn’t quite living so much as merely existing, but then Eddie walks into the picture and blooms colors across the drab canvas of Buck’s life.
    A story told in color, about loneliness, love, loss, and finally coming home.

    Summary

    Everyone has a soulmate, when they touch there’s a spark of recognition so deep it feels like your entire world is rocketed through the stars in a brilliant kaleidoscope of color. At least, Evan squints at the paperback in his hands, that’s what Maddie’s book says.

    In which Buck and Eddie are soulmates but still so utterly, devastatingly, stupid about it.

    Summary

    He leaves bodies like love letters. Each one a message.
    He says he’s doing what Eddie won’t. What he can’t. That this darkness inside him isn’t new: just buried. Waiting.
    And the deeper Eddie descends, through blood, memory, and whispers stitched into cooling skin, the harder it becomes to tell who’s chasing who.
    The killer knows him. His scars. His sins. The rage he buries beneath duty and silence. He calls to the part of Eddie that craves violence and control as much as it aches to surrender.
    And Eddie can’t stop.
    Not when the voice behind the mask sounds too familiar. Not when it feels like he’s being seen - all the way through. Not when it's hard to breathe. To think. To want anything else.
    With each body, the thread pulls tighter. With each word, Eddie unravels - slowly, violently, intimately.
    Until the line between hunter and hunted is demolished. Until he can’t tell where the obsession ends and desire begins. Until that desire bleeds into devotion. Until Eddie doesn’t just follow him into the dark -
    He joins him there.
    Smiling. Bleeding.
    Home.
    Because this was never about catching him.
    It was about remembering who he’s always belonged to.

    Summary

    Evan Buckley wouldn’t believe you if you told him that the most peaceful place he’d ever be in was at home, in his district. If you asked, he’d tell you that it’s a violent place where children train for the hunger games, and that it’s encouraged to volunteer, just for the slim chance that you’ll even make it out alive.

    Risking your life just for a little bit of honor.

    Summary

    Buck’s just trying to chill and cool down on his couch and scroll through TikTok when an edit of Eddie Diaz—HIS Eddie—slaps him in the face with a INSANE audio and a well-timed lyric that nearly sends Buck into cardiac arrest.

    Summary

    Buck doesn’t know how to grieve Bobby Nash—or what to do with Bobby’s final words telling him the family would need him. He’s unraveling, and pretending he’s fine is only making it worse.

    Eddie, on the other hand, only knows how to speak through anger. His hurt comes out sideways, sharp and unkind, and he hates that Buck’s the one who takes the brunt of it.

    They both say things they don’t mean. And they want to make it right. But maybe right means more than what they were expecting.

    After that argument in Don't Drink the Water.

    Summary

    The night before his first shift as a probationary firefighter, Buck needs to burn off some nerves. His plan to hook up at a Badge and Ladder bar turns into something far less expected and a lot more intense when an LAPD patrol cruiser pulls up on the street beside him.

    Turns out, someone else is in the mood to teach a Rookie, or rather, a Probie, a lesson.

    Summary

    “I have to go back to El Paso for a few days,” Eddie grumbled, sitting sideways on his uncomfortable couch, legs in Buck’s lap. “My parents are cleaning out the attic, and they said there’s like, seven or eight boxes of mine, and they’re going to just chuck it all if I don’t come to look through it.”

    OR

    Eddie has to go back to El Paso for a few days, and Buck stays with Chris.

    Summary

    Buck starts looking for a new place to live without Eddie knowing, wanting it to be a surprise for him to show how much he cares - but obviously it does not go this way. Buck is trying to keep the true reason for leaving to himself but with every passing moment Buck is falling further and further for his best friend and of course Eddie does not feel the same way.

    At least Buck doesn't think he does.

    --

    “And this isn’t your home?”

    Buck held himself for a moment contemplating Eddie’s words. Of course it was home, it was the only place that had ever felt like exactly that. Eddie’s couch was the only sofa Buck had ever felt comfortable on, and his kitchen was the only place he felt he could make a full on mess of without judgement.

    And living with Eddie and Chris felt like all the worlds had collided at once – like they were his family.

    Summary

    Buck wakes up somewhere. He doesn't know where, he doesn't know how, but most importantly he doesn't know WHO.
    WHO he is?
    WHO is waiting for him?

    If there is even anyone waiting for him.

    Summary

    The monsters under your bed is a phrase not to take too literally. We tell our kids the monsters under their bed aren’t real and that it’s just an irrational fear of the dark and the feeling of imaginary creatures, but none of it is real. The monsters under Evan Buckley’s bed are real, but they don’t lurk under the bed. His monsters lurk in the house and pose as loving parents...

    OR....

    Evan Buckley has some pretty shitty parents and Steve McGarrett shows him love and kindness in a way he's never felt before.
