    Summary

    “Well.” Eddie hums. “I want to talk to you.”

    Buck hides his smile against his shoulder, rolling his head to look up at the sky. The stars are a bit more visible tonight. He has to squint, and he’s not entirely sure what he’s looking at, but it’s nice—knowing that he and Eddie are looking up at the same sky. He can almost pretend they’re here together, sitting side by side in the camp chairs, miles of space, but still needing to press their knees into each other.

    “I want to talk to you too.” Buck replies, equally as softly.

    Eddie leaves for Texas. Buck sees him everywhere.

    Summary

    "Hey, sorry about that, I was just—Eddie?”

    Eddie’s head shot up at the sight of Buck, frozen halfway towards his seat. “Buck?”

    Buck let out an awkward chuckle and glanced around. “There must be a mix-up, I’ll go ask—”

    “No!” Eddie practically yelled the word, and then he winced at the desperation in his own voice. Belatedly, he realized it was possible that people who were interested in men were supposed to be sitting there. But Buck was watching him with wide eyes, still paused leaning on his chair, so Eddie added, “I could use a six-minute break. You know, from finding out how many siblings every woman in this bar has.”

    Buck’s eyes glinted in the dim bar lighting. He finally took the seat and asked, “oh, so you don’t care about how many siblings I have?”

    ——

    Eddie and Buck finally go on a date. It just takes them three times to realize it.

    Summary

    Eddie's hand is warm and slightly calloused and his fingers are trembling just a little and Buck suddenly can't remember how to breathe.

    Veronica moves in with the needle and Eddie's grip tightens, crushing, bones grinding together. Buck doesn't mind. Buck doesn't mind at all. Buck would let Eddie pulverize every metacarpal in his hand into calcium powder, reduce his entire skeletal structure to fine calcium dust, if it helped even a little.

    "You're doing great," Buck says.

    "I haven't done anything yet, she hasn't even started."

    "You sat in the chair. That's huge."

    "That's literally the bare minimum."

    "The bare minimum is still an accomplishment when you're scared."

    Or,
    Eddie is scared of needles, so Buck holds his hand.

    Summary

    “This one is almost full,” Ilya said from across the living room. He was holding something up.

    They’d both ditched their jackets and rolled up their sleeves, so Shane’s eyes followed the line of Ilya's arm: shoulder, to bent elbow, to bare forearm, to wrist, to hand. Ilya’s fingers were wrapped around the neck of a champagne bottle. Shane wasn’t really certain how many there had been lying around–Yuna and David had been in charge of handling refreshments–but an open, nearly-full bottle indicated that perhaps there had been too much.

    “Bring it here and I’ll dump it out.”

    “Dump it out?” Ilya frowned, crossing the living room towards the kitchen. “And waste it?”

    “What would you rather do?”

    Ilya set the bottle on the counter and came up behind Shane, strong arms slinking around his waist, Ilya’s lips just barely brushing against his ear. It wasn’t surprising–they’d both been a little clingy ever since the ceremony.

    “I want to share it with you.”

    Shane and Ilya's wedding night, after the guests have gone home, and a bit of the day after.

    Summary

    This isn’t the first time something’s gone horribly, catastrophically wrong for Buck, but it’s okay. It’ll work out in the end. It always has so far.

    This is just a temporary setback. He pinkie promises.

     

    Or, Buck loses his leg, falls in love, and gets his job back. Not necessarily in that order.
