Summary
"No," Eddie says, shaking his head when the officer looks over his shoulder to Chim. He lashes out, grips the Officer by his button down uniform, shakes him and forces him to look at Eddie. He bares his teeth, heart battering the same way it did in that damn New Mexico hospital. "You're looking at me right now, do you understand? You're answering my questions. Now tell me, where is Buck?"
After New Mexico, Buck's house burns down, and he's nowhere to be found. Eddie promptly loses his mind.

Summary
“Holy shit, Eddie. You weren’t kidding. You have a hot husband,” is the first thing Greta says 30 seconds into Eddie pretending he’s not freaking the fuck out about pretending Buck is his husband at his barber’s lesbian wedding.
He kind of feels like he’s going to puke. This was a bad idea. This was a terrible idea.
Or, a classic case of fake dating at a wedding.

Summary
"What do we have?" Eddie asks eventually, swinging his gaze over to Buck.
"What?" Buck rolls his shoulders back, posture stiffening.
"You told Maddie that you could understand Tommy being threatened by what we have," Eddie says slowly. "So I just wondered what that is?"
~
Or, after Eddie finds out about Buck's ill-advised backslide with his ex while he was away in Texas, Buck and Eddie get into it while making dinner. And then again after dinner. They have a lot to sort out, okay?

Summary
Eddie opens his mouth to allow Buck in, backing him firmly into the counter. Buck tastes like coffee, and there’s a few grains of sugar on his lips that Eddie licks off. He absently wonders if Buck had brought pastries, and apparently that’s all it takes for him to remember himself, remember that he’s only partially dressed and definitely reeks of hangover, can practically smell the alcohol oozing through his sweat glands.
He pulls back, presses a chaste kiss to the side of Buck’s mouth as his hand drops from the back of Buck’s neck to reach blindly for the mug. Buck doesn’t make a noise as he passes it over, silently allowing Eddie to take one sip, then another.
“Mm,” Eddie says, half a grunt, “is that a new creamer?”

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.
