Summary
“I want you in my family, I want us to be a family. Officially. A family can be a guy, his son, and his best friend, right?”
Buck’s lower lip was trembling. “You’re really asking me to be your…what, now?”
“Frank called it ‘platonic life partners.’”
Buck looked stunned, and also…hopeful. “We could really do that?”
-----------------
Buck and Eddie decide to become platonic domestic partners and co-parents. They are 100% super normal about it and absolutely nothing is awakened in them, except a mutual annoyance at being referred to as "husbros."

Summary
Buck cleared his throat. “When can I leave?”
Eddie snorted fondly, and Tommy rolled his eyes. Buck was beginning to really dislike that guy. Why did Eddie even have to drag his–who was he to Eddie, his boyfriend? Why did Eddie’s boyfriend need to be here, anyway?
or:
Buck gets amnesia and cannot stand that man that is always hanging around Eddie.

Summary
He and Chris, and Buck. They work, they’re a unit. Why should it matter that he’s single?
Buck is watching him, like he’s reading every thought on his face.
“You’re already planning to lie about the date. Why don’t you just tell her you met someone yourself?”
Eddie shrugs and tilts his head to the side, squinting in thought. “She won’t set me up on dates if she thinks I’ve got someone,” he muses. “But she’ll want to meet whoever it is.”
“So... Introduce them?”
Or: Buck offers to fake-date Eddie so Pepa will stop setting him up on dates.

Summary
Eddie felt something in his chest unclench as they drove into LA, and when he pulled in outside of the house, it fell away, leaving him feeling lighter than he’d felt in months.
The door opened as soon as they parked up, and Buck practically ran down the driveway, arms wrapping around them both the moment they stepped out of the car. Eddie melted into the embrace as Chris wriggled out.
“I need to pee,” he insisted, reaching back into the car for his crutches. He went inside, but Eddie just held Buck tighter, Buck squeezing him back like he knew that was what he needed.
Eddie took a deep breath, and it smelled like home. Buck smelled of the detergent he always bought, with an undercurrent of soot, which probably meant he’d rushed his post-shift shower in order to get home and get ready for them.
“Fuck, I missed you,” Eddie said.
“Yeah,” Buck whispered. “Same.”Eddie comes home from Texas and learns just how much Buck missed him while he was gone

Summary
Eddie’s not a complete idiot. He knows this isn’t normal. He stands in front of a mirror in his underwear, the tightest pair he owns, and he poses for a picture at an angle he’s learned flatters his ass and the curve of his thigh, to send to his best friend.
He knows this isn’t what most best friends do. He also knows most straight guys don’t spend extensive amounts of time staring at men’s thirst trap accounts, or thinking about how their best friends look half-naked, but…
That’s not what Eddie is focusing on right now. He’s just focusing on feeling good, following the path that sparkles with joy, and refusing to overthink it. If happiness is Buck sending a meme of a guy with a nosebleed back to his shirtless selfie, then that’s what happiness is. Eddie has spent too long denying himself to let this be what stops his journey towards loving himself.
It doesn’t need to make sense. It just needs to be positive.
It’s not like he’s breaking any commandments, as Father Brian would say.
