    Summary

    “I could think of worse curses,” Bobby says, suddenly popping up behind Buck's back only to lean over his shoulder and steal the last donut hole. “You live in the same building, Buck. You're going to see each other. Maybe you should embrace it and actually talk to him.”

    Buck closes his eyes, just for a minute. He has the beginnings of a headache knocking at the back of his head, probably from lack of sleep, and he kind of detests that he even notices it. That it's tripping him up a little.

    “And say what, Cap?” he asks. “Hey, I'm Buck, sorry you keep meeting my one night stands?”

    “Mm,” Bobby shrugs, chewing as he makes his way into the kitchen. Buck does not like the look in his eyes. “Maybe you should stop having those first.”

    in which buck sleeps around for healthy reasons, and thinks about his next-door neighbor a healthy amount.

    Summary

    When Buck had told them all the Hot Days, Smoldering Nights, Men of the LAFD Wall Calendar had selected him to represent the 118 for the month of July, Eddie hadn’t thought much of it. He’d congratulated him with a clap on the shoulder, laughed along with Hen, Chim, and Bobby’s good-natured teasing, and that had been that.

     

    Well, Eddie certainly isn’t laughing now.

     

    or, Buck gets his picture taken. Eddie loses his mind.

    Summary

    Buck blushed. “I just mean..! Most guys when they see me, they think, ohh big bulky guy, he must be into manhandling smaller dudes and that’s just not it, you know?” He paused for a moment, checking Eddie’s reaction but he stayed still, so he continued, “I guess it’s my fault, maybe I’m too heavy, I don’t think I’ll find a guy who can mess me around any time soon.”

    Eddie blinked, there was this line that he painted in his mind that strictly distinguished between the friendship he carefully cradled with Buck and the primal hunger he suddenly had to fuck Buck across the kitchen table. The alcohol had loosened both of their tongues, and neither of them even had too much of it. However now, Eddie was itching toward that line, and before he knew it, he was already crossing it and reaching towards that inner desire.

    Summary

    “I mean,” Eddie backtracks hastily, “that I probably don’t—uh, that I don’t want a hook up. Just the single, uh, kiss. For research.”

    “Right,” Buck nods. “For research.”

    They turn back to the TV, sipping beers and spooning dessert, room quiet save for the telenovela playing. Buck, gun to his head, could not tell you who or what is on the screen right now. The brave, strong part of his brain has surrendered shamefully, white flag hoisted while the rest of his brain—stupid, stupid—hosts a skillfully imagined supercut of his best friend kissing men. It’s surprisingly new subject matter for him. What’s unsurprising is his distaste for every conjured scenario, discarding each indistinguishable stranger until the reel buffers on something more… familiar.

    “Well—”

    Eddie waits a patient minute for Buck to continue before asking, “Well, what?”

    “I just mean—if it’s just a kiss, right.” Buck pauses. “You could, uh. You could try it with me.”

     

    or, buck thinks kissing men and women feels pretty much the same. eddie’s not buying it. sometimes settling a bet requires kissing your best friend, a lot, for research
