    Summary

    He stands up, because Eddie does not cower from knocks at — he checks his phone — 10:52 PM, even though every true crime podcast his abuela forwards him suggests this is exactly how people end up as a Dateline episode.

    He looks through the peephole.

    He blinks.

    He looks again.

    There is a man on his porch. Which, fine, he expected a man. What he did not expect is for the man to be — and Eddie needs a second here, because he’s processing several things simultaneously and doing a poor job with all of them — approximately six foot two, broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted, visibly muscular in a way that suggests either a dedicated gym routine or a genetic lottery win or both, and completely, entirely, spectacularly naked.

    Except for the potted succulent he's holding in front of his crotch.

    Eddie's succulent. From Eddie's porch. The one Chris named Potricia.

    Or,
    The odds of the universe dropping a naked man on your doorstep are low, but never zero.

    Summary

    "Hello!" A voice calls up from below.

    Buck looks down the glass of his window. The entire fire department appears to be looking up at him. There are, notably, so many mustaches.

    “Hi!” Buck yells back, motioning at the giant ladder. “Everything okay?”

    “LAFD!” A voice calls back. “Just a practice exercise! No cause for alarm!”

     

    Or, hot firefighters keep parading past his window. What's Buck supposed to do but flirt?

    Summary

    “As I’ve said five times now, you are my best friend. In the entire universe, for the rest of time. If you could get best friend married, I’d best friend marry you, okay? Can you please chill out?”

    Buck blinks. “You’d best friend marry me?”

    Eddie groans. “Are you only hearing every second word I say?”

    “We should - - we should do that. That’s - - Eddie, we should do that.”

     

    Or, Buck is jealous. He platonically proposes about it.

    Summary

    “Catwoman, huh?” Buck’s eyes flick down again, snagging on the shape of Eddie’s torso. “Yeah, you’re, uh, pulling it off. But, uh…”

    Buck straightens, licks his lips, voice shifting to something practiced, polite, and extremely strange to Eddie’s ears. “Look, you seem cool, and that suit’s... heh, working, but I’m— I’m not really doing the whole hookup thing anymore."

    The words don’t register at first—then they do, and the world tilts, grin falling right off his face.

    Buck doesn’t know it’s him.

    Buck doesn’t know it’s Eddie.
