Summary
Eddie wants to be capable of that kind of love so bad – of being loved like that. He wants it so much his teeth ache with the force of it.
Slowly, Chris shakes his head. “I guess not,” he finally decides. He picks his pencil back up, thinks for a moment before beginning to fill in his first answer.
Halfway through his sentence, he picks his head up to look at Buck. “You would look back,” Chris declares, like he knows this to be an unmitigated fact. He goes back to writing.
He says it simply, like grass is green, the sky is blue, and Buck would look back.
Eddie watches Buck take the words like a blow. His eyes widen and his chest physically stutters. “Yeah,” Buck says, the word cracking down the middle. Like he can’t help it, Buck turns his head back to Eddie. “I would.”

Summary
He’s not stupid. It took him some time — years — but Eddie’s half certain that, should his patience snap one day, should he lean in across the way one night when it’s just the two of them, should he palm at Buck’s jaw to bring his face closer and kiss him on the mouth, Buck would kiss him back. That’s not the problem.
The problem is that Eddie’s gonna ruin it.
He’s ruined every other romantic relationship in his life. If it happens with Buck, Eddie knows neither of them will come back from it.
These days, he’s content with having Buck the way he does now. He may succumb to weakness, sometimes, like he just did in the kitchen, holding Buck like that, but Eddie’s willpower is the stuff of legend. He’s happy with his place in Buck’s life. He can play the part of codependent best friend, dad who stepped up, platonic soulmate.
The main issue here, really, hindsight twenty-twenty and all, is that Eddie really misses being a husband.
or: five times eddie, willing and knowing, acts like buck's husband, and one time he. well. you can guess where this is going.

Summary
“Yeah, like…” Eddie shakes his head, still watching him. “Like you’re gonna slip away from me? And I don’t want you to, Buck. I can’t— I can’t.”
“Hey,” Buck says, softening. “I’m— I’m right here, Eddie.”
“I know,” Eddie insists, halfway to tears all over again. “That’s why I—”
eddie diaz wakes up scared; has a panic attack; and confesses his love for his best friend, in that order.
