A collection of Buddie oneshots where love, fate, and a little serendipity bring them closer-one story at a time. ♡ ©mincatz 2024 I do not allow my work to be used or adapted in any way without my permission.

Hate is a strong word. But Eddie thinks what he feels for Buck's parents comes pretty damn close.

Summary: Buck couldn't help the choked sob that left his lips. This dance meant everything to Buck and to see Eddie, who he was supposed to dance with, dancing with someone else but him? It shattered his heart into millions of pieces

They are both intently staring at the lights changing from one number to the next. Then the elevator comes to a halt and Buck assumes he'll soon be alone. But instead of pushing away from the wall, the other man is just furrowing his brows. Then Buck realizes the door isn't opening. His eyes flit back to the current story: Four. That's not where any of them wanted to get off. Buck groans. "I think we're stuck." Buck laughs a humorless laugh. "Shit." <hr> Buck gets stuck in his apartment building's broken elevator with his good-looking neighbor from the sixth floor.

Eddie has to get up the courage to tell Buck he loves him before it's too late. (One Shot)

In which Buck decides to move on from loving Eddie at the same time Eddie gathers the courage to finally admit his love for Buck.

Buck nodded to Eddie to accept the coffee, and then realization hit. His smile dropped and he stared ahead. This is really happening. Eddie is leaving. He looked at all the houses on display in his hands. He was going to be left all alone. The sting he felt in his chest, felt even deeper than when Tommy dumped him. - takes place after S8A -

"When do I get to be happy, Eddie? When do I get to have what I want? Where do I find this person?" Buck almost sobs. Eddie is so fucking done holding back; he's done watching Buck be mistreated; he's done hiding who he is; he's done hiding how he feels; he's so fucking beyond done with not having Buck where he belongs. Eddie makes his choice; it's time. "Maybe they are closer than you think, Buck," Eddie whispers into Buck's ear. Buck stiffens, and Eddie doesn't panic. He waits it out. Buck takes a deep breath and tightens his hold around Eddie's ribs. Buck leans back and looks into Eddie's eyes. Eddie reaches up and wipes the tear away from under Buck's eye. He slides his hand down to cup Buck's jaw. "Can I?" Eddie asks, and Buck gives him a very firm nod of approval. Eddie pushes up on the balls of his feet and softly presses his lips to Buck's.

My version of the damn couch fic.... Or the one where Eddie finds an overtired Buck passed out in his living room and an important conversation ensues.

Buck feels replaced by Ana and Eddie just doesn't know what he did to make his best friend pull away.
