    Summary

    Buck doesn't have to ask Eddie whether his feelings are returned. Oh, Maddie's been encouraging him to, ever since she got him to confess that he has fallen in love with his best friend, insisting that he'll never know until he tries. Buck doesn't have to, though. Because he knows Eddie. He can read his friend like no one else can and in a manner that's unlike anything Buck has ever shared with anyone else. He can understand him so well, it's almost like he was destined to.

    Which is the bitter irony of it, because that's exactly how he knows that Eddie isn't and won't ever be in love with him.

    Or

    The unrequited love fic I was encouraged to write for Buddie, with two possible endings.

    Summary

    They don’t make a big deal of telling everyone the news — aside from Christopher, which Buck had been endearingly nervous about — because honestly, fundamentally, nothing changes. Everyone already knows, really, so Buck and Eddie don’t feel like they need to broadcast it.

    They do their best to keep it professional at the station, for the most part, but sometimes their small but intimate touches seep into the work day without them even consciously realizing it.

    (Or, Buck and Eddie share soft touches at work, and the team notices and comes to conclusions.)

    Bobby,
    EXCELLENT way to announce this to you, I know, but I've attached the completed relationship disclosure forms!!! We have a teeny tiny request of you though before you file them. Eddie and I will come by your office at the beginning of shift tomorrow. Maybe even just a couple minutes after you read this??? Unless you check your work email at home too. In which case you really need to work on your work-life balance, Cap. Lol.
    You're the best!!!
    Buck

    5 times the 118 is tired of Buck and Eddie acting like a couple, and the time they find out they've been dating the whole time.

    Summary

    “I can explain,” Buck starts, launching into his plea for forgiveness the second he’s alone with Eddie.

    “You told Chimney?” Eddie bursts into incredulous laughter, and Buck is—relieved, mostly, that Eddie isn’t genuinely upset at the idea of anyone else knowing, just—just the fact that it’s Chimney.

    “I promise I didn’t mean to.”

    Buck and Eddie attempt to keep their relationship a secret. The universe conspires against them.
