Summary
“If you hadn’t noticed, I don’t have many friends,” Louis whispers, the blossom of insecurity in his stomach unfurling and clawing its way into his throat.
Harry is silent for a long time, and then he speaks; a soft, slow uncurl that makes Louis’ stomach shake. “I’ll be your friend.”

Summary
There’s a moment of silence but it’s not awkward or uncomfortable. Harry is oddly reassured just by the fact that Louis is on the other side of the phone. Everything still feels unbearable, but him, being there, it’s enough for now.
Harry’s never really come to terms with what goes on in his house when his mother isn’t home, has never admitted even to himself that this, this thing that’s happening to him, is real. Nearly nine years of sexual and physical abuse and he’s still trying to learn to grunt and bear it. He finds ways of coping, whether it be slicing his wrists or throwing up his dinner just because he needs control of something.
On the outside, he's a smiling, cheeky sixteen-year-old. On the inside though, Harry's broken, damaged goods tittering on the edge of hopelessness.
And then he meets Louis.

Back when we were young and drunk, love could never last forever by Lost_Girl_02

Summary
Evan Buckley knows he's screwed up. He knows that getting high every day, drinking the night away, and sleeping with anyone who will look at him twice isn't healthy. But he's alone in LA, his life is going nowhere, and so would there be a reason for him to stop? Even meeting a lost kid at a grocery store who asks for his help shouldn't move the needle on his life choices. But that kid (and his attractive father) stick in his mind and make him wonder what the hell he's doing with his life.
Eddie Diaz is holding on to a thread. He knows that he's doing the best he can, that trying to balance a demanding job as a firefighter, his son's needs who he is always seemingly failing at least according to his ex-wife, his girlfriend who wants to move their relationship to the next level, and his family's expectations is a losing battle. But he shoves it all down, and focuses on taking care of Chris and making sure his son is happy and has all that he needs. He just doesn't expect that a blond with a birthmark over his eye to keep popping up.

Summary
Buck got crushed by a firetruck and less than three hours later, half a dozen naval aviators showed up in the hospital waiting room. Eddie was sure they were there for someone else, anyone else, but then one of the men asked a nurse about Evan Buckley's condition.
Apparently, he was Buck's husband.
No one on the Dagger team knew that Hangman was married. He kept silent on his husband because DADT might have been gone, but he wasn't an idiot.
It was a pure coincidence that Penny happened to turn on the TVs at the Hard Deck to a news channel that night instead of a sports game.
What Jake saw would haunt him for the rest of his life.

come fly with me (let's fly, let's fly away) by GatheringBlue

Summary
It's a common misconception that Buck trained to be a Navy SEAL. For as long as he could remember, flying had been his dream. Most little kids wanted to be a firefighter or an astronaut, but Buck had always wanted to be a pilot.
He wanted to fly far, far away from home, where his parents’ comments that might as well have been slaps for how badly they stung couldn’t get to him. Flying was his way out. His escape. If he was thousands of feet up in the sky, way up with the clouds, then his parents couldn’t touch him. No one could.
When Buck got pulled from the reserves just after the lawsuit, it seemed like perfect timing. There was nothing left for him in LA. Not anymore.
So, it looked like Buck was heading back to Top Gun.
