Summary
Buck remembers how proud he was about all of his software updates. 2.0, 3.0. Maybe if he shed 100 skins and improved himself enough, 3.0 to infinity, someone could take a look at him and find something worth keeping. Because that’s what he kept telling himself: nobody is ever gonna want you enough to keep you.
But Eddie had kept him. He’s keeping him, still, he just has to go.
Eddie is moving to Texas. Buck finally figures out what he wants.

Bookmarker's Notes
So Buck hits himself nearly two decades later, just a couple hard strikes of the skin of his palm against the side of his head. Then he scrapes his face all over the rough brick of his loft walls until the skin on his cheeks splits open. It doesn’t hurt enough, but it’ll have to do. He has a shift.

Summary
Buck moves toward Eddie until he’s directly in front of him, and raises his hands to cradle his face. Eddie looks away, bravery gone, but Buck guides his head straight, forcing Eddie to make eye contact.
“Do you trust me?” Buck asks quietly, gaze piercing.
Eddie swallows. “Of course I do. Of course.” His heart pounds so hard that Eddie thinks it may burst out of his chest.
Buck is so close, and Eddie’s eyes fall to his lips. Buck leans forward as if to kiss him, and he tilts his head up to meet him. He didn’t get to kiss him yesterday. Maybe today, he thinks, tilting upward. But then, Buck changes course, his lips ghosting over Eddie’s ear.
“Then get on your knees,” he whispers, and oh fuck.
OR
When budget cuts force the 118 to find other ways to make money, Buck and Eddie decide to create an OnlyFans account. They're best friends, and they're both straight. What could go wrong?

Summary
Jee’s nose scrunches up in consideration. “Hmmm.” She counts out the gumdrops on her plate. “Okay, but take the red ones. I don’t really like those.” Maddie scoffs in amusement and Eddie smiles, receiving four red gumdrops in his hand.
“Wow, thank you! The cherry ones are my favorite.” He makes a big show of shoving them all in his mouth at once and can’t stop his face from twisting up at the flavor, exposing the lie immediately. They taste like cough syrup. Maddie and Jee burst into giggles, and despite the attack on his taste buds, Eddie breaks into a goofy smile too. “Mmm. Just what I wanted.”
Buck smiles to himself, tears springing up as he watches them from the living room. Eddie and his girls.

Summary
Eddie shrugs. “We can just order in, it's fine.” He turns to look at Buck, mirrors his position from his spot next to the sink. “You do know you don’t have to cook every night, Buck.”
“I feel bad.” Buck admits. “I’m staying over, you buy groceries, you do laundry, you drive us to work. I wanna repay you somehow.”
Eddie shakes his head. “You’re staying over because I asked you to. I do those things because you’re my best friend and I want you to be comfortable. You don’t have to do anything to repay me.” He pauses, looks right at Buck. “You do enough by just existing by my side.”
(or, buck offers his apartment to bobby and athena, and living with eddie is easy.)
