    Summary

    The water is hot. Pleasantly so. Roiling gently thanks to the jets. Eddie plunges into it with a sigh pulled from somewhere deep. He sinks onto the bench and tips his head back, submerged enough to rest it comfortably against the ledge of the tub behind him. The water rises as he settles, lapping at his collarbones. Beneath its surface, he stretches his legs out.

    It’s a quiet night. The neighborhood children are all tucked up in bed by now, the cars parked in driveways for the evening. The windows are shut, so are the sliding glass doors to yards; the distant, twinkling sounds of conversation and laughter from within long since muted. The noise of the city is inescapable, but here, it’s softer. Further off. It’s almost easy for it to fade into the background in this little corner of suburbia. Instead, crickets chirp from the bushes, the stray croak of a frog from somewhere in the grass joins their song. Overhead, string lights weave through the patio cover beams, casting the porch in a soft, warm glow.

    It’s nice here, in Buck’s new backyard. Peaceful.

    But, maybe that’s more to do with the company, than the ambiance.

     

    Or, Buck, Eddie, and Buck's new hot tub.

    Summary

    Eddie wants his best friend's hands on his waist all the damn time and he's losing sleep over it.
    But- nothing to worry about, right? It'll pass.
    Or maybe not and they will have to do something drastic about it.

    Or-
    Eddie's got a little thing going on and both he and Buck seem to be a little too obsessed with it for the two normal, platonic best friends they are.

    Summary

    “You’re too easy, Eddie.” Buck shakes his head with a smile, slipping out of his hold and offering his hand, warm and welcoming. “C’mon, I’m making you dinner.”

    Eddie slips his hand into Buck’s, his palm warm and safe. “Then what?”

    “Then, I thought we could get some use out of the hot tub.”

    Eddie could melt already at the idea of warm, bubbly water surrounding his stiff and tired limbs. Of course, Buck would know exactly what he needs. It’s like he was factory-made just for Eddie. Like if he turned him upside down, "Eddie" would be etched in the sole of his New Balance sneakers.

    Or, Eddie doesn't think he could love Buck more, until there's more of Buck to love.

    Summary

    It's a Thursday evening, at the end of a 24-hour shift, and Eddie is in the bathroom at the house brushing his teeth when Buck leans in the doorway behind him and says, "I'm going to take a shower."

    It's such an ordinary thing to say–Buck says it five times a week, minimum–except that Eddie's brain snags on the tik tok video from a few days ago, and his mouth moves before he thinks better of it.

    "Information or invitation?"

    He says it in the exact tone of someone delivering a punchline, light and a little teasing, clearly expecting Buck to groan at the callback and go shower alone. It is a joke. It is absolutely, entirely a joke, and the correct response from Buck would be a tired chuckle.

    Buck doesn't laugh.
    He meets Eddie's eyes in the mirror, something shifting behind his face, and says, "Invitation."

    There is a silence.

    It's the kind of silence that Eddie can feel on his skin, that is doing something specific to the air between them, and he watches his own face in the mirror very carefully and does not turn around.

    ------------

    Or: A buddie fic inspired by the tiktok "information or invitation?" shower trend.

    Summary

    “It’s okay,” Buck rushes to say, eyes like saucers as he sits up, ignoring the heat in his gut. “It—it’s natural. It happens. I just woke up.” He isn’t sure why he tacks on the lie at the end, but no matter the reason, it doesn’t seem to quell Eddie’s embarrassment.

    “Oh my god, I was humping your bed,” Eddie mumbles in horror. “Beside you. Like—like some dog.”

    A cat, Buck’s brain supplies unhelpfully.

    Or, a few drinks lead to a noisy dream and feelings revealed, and Buck has to pinch himself to make sure he's awake.
