Summary
Eddie touches Buck a lot.
It’s a thing they do, has been for years, and it’s not a big deal. Eddie’s an affectionate guy. Side hugs and arm grabs and that move where Eddie steers him through doorways with a hand on his lower back.
All of which Buck has never spent any real time considering because it’s just Eddie, it’s just how he is. Eddie touches people and Buck just happens to be the person standing next to him most of the time, so it’s aimed at him most of the time. Proximity and frequency, that’s all. A coincidence.
They’re close. They always have been. So what?
All that being said, there is one thing Eddie doesn’t do.
Eddie doesn’t kiss Buck.
Or — didn’t. Past tense, until about thirty seconds ago, when Eddie leaned across their table at the diner they’re currently eating at and pressed his mouth to Buck’s cheek like the kiss was just another item on a list of things he was doing that afternoon.
Or,
The totally natural and platonic long-term friendship escalation of kissing your best friend on multiple parts of his body without explanation.Bookmarked by Subtlehappiness

Summary
Eddie looks up with defeated eyes. “He doesn’t remember, Hen. It changes everything and he doesn’t even remember. I don’t have the courage to tell him. What if he thinks…what if he hates me? What if he doesn’t hate me? I didn’t do it on purpose.”
He stammers and staggers over his words trying and failing to sound justified to even his own ears. “He was fighting the other Alpha’s influence so I thought that,” He trails off, eyes growing distant and sad before releasing the rest of the words pulled from within his lungs, “He didn’t fight me, Hen. He just gave up control.”
He looks absolutely wrecked by the end of his guilt-ridden confession.
OR Eddie confesses to Hen why he feels like he betrayed Buck's trust and then fumbles so bad that Buck leaves the Diaz residence. Sprinkled in with some family feels.

Summary
“Why’d you send him away? I want Chris back. Are you embarrassed of me? Is it because I’m an Omega? Bring him back, Eddie!”
Eddie abruptly stands up, pulling his phone out haphazardly. He throws a cautious look at Buck before walking away. He looks down at the number and presses the call icon. Shit shit shit.
“Hello this is–”
“Dr. Johnathan?”
“Eddie? What’s wrong?”
“I-I don’t know?? He’s crying! He won’t stop crying! He keeps asking about Christopher. He’s mad at me for sending him away? I thought-”
“Are you two seriously- God…Did you talk to him before sending Christopher away? Did-did he talk to you about any of this at all??”
“No?”
He cringes at the way the man audibly sighs in exasperation.
OR Buck comes home and finds no Chris and spirals. Johnathan is exasperated and bewildered at the two. Eddie and Chris will do anything to comfort Buck.

Summary
“Jesus Christ! Are you naked right now?”
Buck’s face rapidly appears on the screen again, looking sheepish. “Yeah, sorry about that, I forgot.”
“You forgot?” Eddie asks, bewildered. Not only can he say he’s never been unaware of his own nakedness, but more importantly, they’ve been face-timing for at least ten minutes now, before Buck’s phone had slipped and Eddie had gotten, well—an eyeful. Eddie can’t wrap his head around it, that Buck’s been talking to him like normal, all while his dick’s been out? “You—you called me.”

Summary
The kid with blood pouring down his shins is not so far from the dog lonely enough that he thinks breaking his housetraining is worth it for the ten minutes of berating that come with it, the ten minutes of undivided, if reluctant, attention.
Buck thinks, sometimes, that at least he wasn’t the kind of puppy that gets put in a sack and drowned at birth. He wasn’t always unwanted. And he isn’t anymore.
or, evan “i love you like a dog” buckley has only ever known how to love like, well, a dog, but maybe eddie diaz is the kinda guy to give a flea-bitten mongrel a forever home

Summary
“So, what’s going on with you?”
Buck tilts his head to the side. “What do you mean?"
“I mean, what’s going on with you? I feel like all we’ve talked about since I left is me and my problems. So, tell me, what’s new?”
I slept with Tommy because I was lonely and missing you. And he called you competition, implying I was in love with you, and when I went to Maddie, she basically agreed with him.
Yeah, definitely can’t say that.
Or, a FaceTime call between Buck and Eddie that takes place immediately after Eddie's scene with Christopher at the end of Disconnected. Feelings are revealed and Buck, being Buck, panics.

Summary
Buck really didn’t know what he did in a past life to deserve this.
His eyes snapped open again, dragged toward the front door. The house sat in heavy silence, the kind that wasn’t peaceful but rather blaringly obvious, pressing in on his ears until he swore he could hear things that weren’t there. The faint crunch of the ice-machine. Pipes settling somewhere in the walls. Some sounds, however, were missing from the regular traffic. Notably, the hum of Eddie’s fan.
Where the fuck was Eddie?

or; 5 times Buck observes Eddie's sexcapades, and 1 time he does more than observe.
