Chapter Text
The rest of the firehouse could feel the tension between Buck and Eddie. Their glares, their purposeful pushing, the avoidance, the hidden eye rolls. Everything. Nobody knew what exactly went down between the two but Bobby was not having it. It was affecting the team.
It was a "q-shift" and everyone besides Eddie and Buck was sitting together at the kitchen island. With awkward glances, the rest of the team watched the two sit at opposite ends of the upper floor. Both angrily glaring at seemingly nothing.
"Those two are starting to get out of hand. What is going on with them?" Hen asked. Glancing back between the two once more before turning back around.
Bobby who was behind the island cooking up lasagna looked between the two and frowned. "I have no clue. It's gotta end soon. I don't know if they can go on calls like this. They aren't a team when angry".
Chimney had been listening in, ready to put his own opinion in.
" It's hard to be around the two in the changing room. It's like your gambling on whether or not they're gonna beat the crap out of each other or kill one another."
They all nodded in agreement.
But, on opposite ends of the firehouse. The thoughts of anger raged through both their minds.
Eddie was sitting with his elbows on his knees, staring at the ground. He was pissed, Buck had no right judging his past. No right at all. He's not the perfect angel himself. He thought. Growling aloud as he did so.
Buck on the other hand sat with his arms crossed, angrily switching the channels on the TV.
Of course, Eddie jumped to the conclusion he was judging him. How can a grown man be so insecure? He thought. Looking over and glaring at Eddie's back.
They were acting like children. The team found it to be too much. They didn't know if they were going to have to get in between the two at any moment.
Soon after the food was done and it was time for the team to sit together. Bobby, Hen, Chimney, and the rest of the firehouse sat to make sure there were only two seats left. Right beside each other. Hoping it would at least spark them to talk to each other.
As the two were called over they glanced at the seats and furrowed their brows. Saying nothing in the end and taking a seat. It was almost pitiful how the two were only sitting halfway on their seats. Creating as much room between them as possible.
It was quiet for a few minutes beside the hushed requests to pass a bowl over. That was until Chimney decided to lighten the mood. Talking about funny events on calls. It worked for everyone but the two who were angrily stabbing their food. But Chimney soon brought up a story about Eddie.
"You guys remember when Eddie jumped this huge distance to get down from the building before it collapsed? The face he made as he realized he didn't think it through and ended up landing right on Cap. Hilarious." He said with a laugh.
The rest of the group giggled.
But a small mutter left Bucks’ mouth. It was quiet but sharp with intent.
"He seems to have the habit of doing things without thought. Jumping to conclusions." He said with distaste. The group was shocked at his openness to insult who they thought was his best friend. It was silent for not even a second before Eddie looked at him with a glare to kill.
"Oh fuck off. You're not any better. Hell, you’re more fucked up than you were when your temporary cougar fling left for travel." He said with anger seeping through each word.
The group not knowing what to say paused for a second before Buck stood up and peered down at Eddie. His chair was pushed back so fast it fell back.
"What the fuck did you just say? You wanna say that again?" He said.
Eddie quickly stood up matching Bucks's energy.
"I said what I said, you like to judge others so much. What? can't handle it done to your train wreck of a love life?"
That seemed to have clicked something in Buck. Earning a right hook that hit Eddie in the cheek. Causing him to raise his hand up to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth. Glaring back at Buck, ready to send one of his own.
"Enough you two, my office now," Bobby said standing up and glaring at the two.
With a push to the other, they followed Bobby down to his office.
"What has gotten into you two? Have you forgotten you're no longer children?"
Eddie laughed, " Tell Buck that"
Earning a look from Bobby.
Buck glared back at Eddie in response.
Bobby raised his voice, again attempting to cut the tension between the two.
"That's it, you two are hereby suspended from the field until you can chill out and settle whatever this is. You two will be in charge of cleaning this entire firehouse effective tomorrow."
He said, getting looks of anger. But overall acceptance.
"fine," the two said at once.
Bobby looked between the two and shook his head.
"Now get out"
The two left one after the other.

It was the next day, the anger still lingering in the air as the two got ready for the labor. Not one time looking at the other or communicating. The rest of the group peered down at them from the upper floor.
“You sure this is going to work Cap? I’ve never seen them hate each other this much before.” Hen said with worried tension shown in her face.
“Yeah, and how do we know they won’t kill each other during a call?” Chimney said.
Cap peered down at the two already going to work on the organization of the firehouse racks.
He smiled, “I think this is only temporary. They might want to rip each other apart but you can still see a connection between the two. Look at them, they are both working in sync without even communicating verbally.” He said pointing down at the two. The rest of the group nodded.
The bell soon went off, alerting the team of their needed presence and assistance. Hen patted Cap on the shoulder, “I hope you’re right on this one,” as they all rushed to get ready. Leaving the firehouse soon after and leaving it quiet and barren of anyone but the two men. The others who stayed behind were busy with their own work in other rooms.
________________
A few hours later and a few returns and calls of the group on the field, Eddie and Buck were soon done with the firehouse. They still haven’t said a word to each other. The group was once again gone on a call. Probably the last one of the evening, those were always the longest ones so they’d be gone for a few more hours.
Eddie and Buck were placing stuff back into place in the storage closet, backs turned against each other. It was silent until Buck spoke up. “Did you really mean what you said?” he asked. Not turning around to face Eddie. “The stuff I said yesterday? No, not really. But you deserved it.” Eddie said in response. Causing Buck to quickly turn around. “I deserved it? Eddie, you are the one that jumped to conclusions you had no right to say those things. I spoke to you in confidence. It was fucked up and I’d hit you again in a heartbeat.” Eddie snarled and turned towards him as well - now glaring and stepping closer to the other body. “Then do it, I didn’t jump to conclusions. You had no right to judge what I did in the past. Now do it, come on you pussy. Hit me.” He said getting closer and closer to Buck. Buck in anger pushed Eddie's shoulders causing him to stumble back and hit the shelves behind him. The sound of rattling equipment echoed through the small room. Buck walked towards Eddie, getting close enough that Eddies back was against the shelves.
“You don’t even deserve my fist.” He said with distaste and malice. The tension grew until Eddie leaned his head forward. “Coward” he spat. Buck didn’t know what got into him, and neither did Eddie but at that Buck lunged and sealed the space between them with the connection of their lips.
It was first more teeth than anything but it soon developed deeper and more fueled by anger and passion. Their tongues teased the other's lips before they both allowed entry. Eddie's hands were the first to roam, reaching up and hooking into Bucks's neck. Seemingly pulling him closer.
Buck snaked his arms around Eddie's waist. Squeezing the skin and pulling him closer. Eliciting a moan from Eddie. The sounds as they fought for dominance quietly leaked through the doors of the storage closet. Eddie tried to gain control but in the end, he gave into Buck's sexual confidence. He could feel the pinching of Buck's hands on his waist. It hurt but he enjoyed every second of it. Desiring more.
They stopped only gasping for air before Buck had leaned forward and nibbled on the closing scab on Eddie's lip. Opening it back up and causing Eddie to moan at the pain. He didn’t know where this was coming from. But the anger he had was all shown through his desperation. Their lips connect once more.
Eddie's hands began to journey away from Bucks's neck, down to his shoulders, down his back, and under his shirt. Trailing up the bare skin and scratching hard. A loud pleasurable moan escaped Buck. The heat rushed down to Eddie's groin in response. He needed more, causing his hands to snake out from his shirt and move towards the buckle on Buck’s pants. Tugging and pulling he heard the sound of it unhooking. They gasped for air and Buck latched his teeth hard onto Eddie's shoulder. The pain was pleasure and a loud moan escaped his mouth. Buck suckled and bit around the bite mark leaving marks as he went. Resuming his work Eddie went to work on Bucks pant’s button and zipper. Quickly making work of it and loosening them. Buck stopped what he was doing and grabbed Eddie's hands, pinning them above his head. “Not so fast. It’s my game now Diaz.” The use of his last name sparked a passion he never knew he had. “Dios mío” he screamed as buck used one hand to hold his arms up and the other to loosen his pants. Teasing him slowly with kisses down his neck.
With quick time he felt his pants drop to the ground. The sensation of Buck’s hand palming his member through his boxers.
Moans leaving his mouth. Buck took his hands away and latched onto Eddie's shirt. The loss of contact made Eddie whimper. Buck tugged and pulled at Eddie's shirt, tugging it off over his head and tossing it behind him. The look of hunger in Buck's eyes turned Eddie on even more. His bare skin showed and Buck gripped Eddie’s back scratching all the way down to the rim of his boxers. Eddie screamed in pleasure from the pain. Their lips met again, Buck's tongue exploring Eddie’s mouth. They gasped for air soon after and Buck kissed down Eddie’s chest. Soon bending down on his knees and pulling down the other's boxers. Eddie’s member sprang out fiercely. Buck looked up at Eddie and locked eyes with him as he licked his slit. He had done this twice before in his experimenting days. Holding eye contact Buck took on Eddie’s full shaft. Eddie’s hand gripping the back of Buck’s head. Tugging at his hair as he never felt this excited about a blow job. The more Buck moved, the closer to cumming he got. “B-Buck, I'm gonna-” at these words, Buck unlatched and stood back up. Ignoring the whimper that left his partners mouth.
He grabbed Eddie's hips and turned him around. Positioning him with his ass out and hands gripping the shelves in front of him. Buck bent down and pulled apart the man's cheeks. Licking around his entrance before slowly inserting a finger into the hole. Eddie yelled out in pain and pleasure. Buck felt his entrance tighten around his digit. He pumped in and out a few times before adding another, then another.
Eddie was a mess at this point. Moaning and whimpering Buck's first name. “God Evan” This fueled Buck's passion. He stood up removing his fingers and pulling down his pants and boxers. Positioning his member at the entrance. Teasing him by rubbing his tip around it.
“Fuck, do it you coward. Fuck me like the rest of your side pieces.” Eddie begged. Fueling Buck’s anger. Buck pushed himself inside. Slowly pumping in and out. The sounds coming from Eddie are ones of tears and moans. Buck grabs Eddie's ass and scratches at the skin, leaving marks. He bends down and bites as hard as he desired onto the back of Eddie’s neck. Leaving a deep mark. The moan that came from Eddie as he bit and pounded faster gave him the green light to continue. He trailed bite marks and scratched down Eddies back before resting his hands on his shoulders. Using his strength and speed to pump into Eddie.
At this point, they were both moaning and gasping at the pressure. “Buck- I’m gonna”
“Me too-” He replied. He went faster and more desperate than ever before. Grabbing Eddie's member and aiming it up at his stomach the mutual moans increased before they both gasped and squirmed having come.
They stood there for a second, living in each other's tired breaths.
Buck began to talk, his member still inside Eddie. “Look, Eddie, I wasn’t judging you on your past. Mine isn’t any better.” He said before slowly pulling out and allowing Eddie to turn around and face him. A little pained whimper left him as he did so. “I- I know, I just got insecure. I thought you were looking down on me so I reacted out of anger.” He replied grabbing Buck's face. Buck's hand moved up to hold his. “I didn’t mean anything I said.” He said to break the silence.
They both then laughed looking at the state of one another. Hair rustled, Clothes missing, hickeys and bite marks. They were a mess. “You better hope my shirt covers what you did,” Eddie said as he bend down to put on his boxers and pants. Ziping them back up. “Oh come on, you look… great,” Buck said laughing. “Who knew all we needed was a hate Fuck” he said soon after. Earning a quick slap from Eddie. Buck began to put his own pants on as he watched Eddie pick up and put on his shirt. “Uh-oh,” he said as he saw that the bite mark on Eddie’s neck peeked through slightly.
“What?” Eddie said. Lifting a brow in confusion as he fixed his hair. “Uh, you may want to wear a scarf or a high-collared jacket for a while.” He said in nervous laughter. Eddie rolled his eyes as he reached out to fix Buck's hair.
They both laughed soon after and fixed any knocked-over items on the shelves.
“Well, that was fun,” Buck said as he opened the door. They both walked out until they saw that the crew's vehicles were already back.
“Shit, how long have they been back?” Eddie asked. His question was soon answered by the opening of the doors. The crew walked out and saw them standing next to each other.
“Finally, sorted your issue out?” Bobby said as he stared at the two. Scanning for any hint of anger. Finding none he smiled.
“Yeah Cap turns out it was a misunderstanding. We just had to fight it out.” Buck said. Holding in his nervous laugh.
Chimney walked out next and looked at Eddie, “Yeah, I can tell you guys fought. Your wound opened up again” He said looking at Eddie and pointing at his own lip. Eddie picked up what he was saying and laughed nervously. Wiping his face of the smeared blood.
The team was happy the two were talking again. Smiling they all walked up to the second floor for dinner. The two men stay behind.
“That was close,” Buck said as he patted Eddie's shoulders.
“Your shirts on backward,” He said as he walked away, causing the other man to jump and fix it quickly.
