Summary
Eddie is okay. He's alive. He's going home. Buck doesn't have to try to keep it together anymore. Only now he has a secret that could ruin one of the most important relationships in his life. Why did it take his best friend almost dying for Buck to realize he was in love?
"You act like you're expendable, but you're wrong," Eddie tells him in the hospital. And then later, when he sees a video taken at the crane emergency, he says it again, though this time his anger is white-hot and he adds, "You really make me want to whoop your ass sometimes, Buckley. See if I can knock some sense into you."
Days later, Buck asks, "Were you serious?" And suddenly Evan Buckley is on the path to his first adult spanking.

"Do you understand that I love you?" Eddie asks.
Buck swallows. He nods.
"I need words."
Buck's gaze drops to his shoes. "Yes, sir."
"Do you understand that I still love you even if am so angry that it makes it hard to look at you?" Eddie asks.
Buck's head snaps up and his eyes fill with tears. "Eddie..."Eddie shakes his head. "I need to know that you understand, Evan."
"Yes, sir, I understand," Buck whispers.
Buck's in trouble. Again.

Summary
Buck disobeys direct orders from Bobby and Eddie plans to spank him for it. Pretty straightforward, right? Except the journey between disobedience and spanking was not so straightforward, and Buck has a lot of feelings. Luckily Eddie's been to therapy and is pretty okay at handling Buck's feelings.

Summary
When Eddie leaves for work, he kisses Buck. "Behave," he says. "I love you.
And that was, perhaps, exactly what he shouldn't have said. The behave part, anyway, because Buck chooses instead to spend his day sending Eddie suggestive and some downright lewd pictures of himself while he's at home and Eddie's on shift.
Buck might be a brat, but he also is Eddie's good boy and even on days where he's teasing and playing, he is still going to be Eddie's good boy.

“You wanna get married today?” Eddie asks.
Buck’s heart stutters in his chest. It takes him a second, then he laughs softly, leaning in to mouth at Eddie’s jaw. “Edmundo Diaz, are you suggesting we get married on Valentine’s Day?”
Eddie nudges at Buck’s thighs with his knee, pushing them apart to slide his leg in between. “You wanna?”
Buck doesn’t even have to think about it. “Guess so. Didn’t really have anything else planned for my day. Laundry, but that can probably wait.”
