It's not like she intends to butt heads with the new guy; after all, she remembers what it was like, being the new person. The 118 was insanely kind to her, especially after having a rough time in training, and she should want to pass on that warmth and sense of family. She wants to. It's just -

She knows what her reputation is. It started all the way back in training, because she'd never been able to keep her legs shut until Bobby nearly fired her and she fucked a department therapist. She still can't, really, but fear of screwing up the one good thing she has going for her has at least kept her fuck-ups away from her job since then. Still, she did some serious damage to how people see her, and she's had to turn down a few assholes who heard she was easy and weren't thrilled by her new policy. And that's ignoring the fact that firefighting is still very much a men's club and she gets looked down on all the time for not being one of the guys. Sue her if she's a little cautious around new people.

Also, he's extremely hot, and if it weren't for that policy, then she knows she'd definitely sleep with him if he asked. That makes it awkward, too.

She's not a bitch to him or anything, but she's not her usual friendly golden retriever self towards him. Bobby even calls her on it, pulls her aside at one point to ask if there's a problem. When she admits that there isn't, or if there is then it's all her, he asks her to put a bit more effort into being friendly because Eddie's a damn good firefighter and potentially very good backup for some of the more reckless shit Buck tends to pull. (Okay, he didn't phrase that last part quite that way, but that's the message she receives.)

So she jumps into more reckless bullshit with Eddie in the form of removing a live grenade from a guy's leg. It's terrifying and exhilarating and Eddie's calmness under pressure at least reassures her that Bobby probably made the right call in bringing him to the 118, and he's probably not an asshole. They have kind of a moment afterwards where she's pretty sure they've both just agreed to give some kind of professional partnership a try, but she wants to make sure the lines of communication stay open so when they get back to the station, she brings them both a plate of Bobby's leftovers.

"I don't know what you like, but anything Bobby makes is good, so..."

"Bobby did the hard part. I just reheated it."

She takes a couple bites from her own plate - some kind of casserole, absolute comfort food, bless Bobby for making it even if he couldn't have known she was going to be in need of something comforting to shore up her strength. Not that this thing with Eddie is even really what she's going to need most of her strength for; Maddie's reappearance in her life running from her abusive husband might've given her some extra perspective on this thing with Eddie being relatively petty.

"I think I owe you an apology," she says, setting her fork down for a second. "I hadn't really been giving you a chance since you got here."

[Well, this is. Not how she expected to be having a conversation like this. She’d’ve expected it to be in person, or at least rate a FaceTime chat. But whatever’s happening, she sits down on her coach and gets ready for Whatever This Is.]

Like how?

I don’t know. You might have to give me some examples? [Okay, it might be a bit mean to be teasing him now, but he is the one who called her (!!) out of nowhere for this conversation. She’s not being mean about it, there’s a line of seriousness behind the smile in her voice.]

[Buck spent - well, more time than she's maybe willing to admit to thinking about this. She'd even briefly considered an emergency session with Dr. Copeland, but she ended up mostly just staring at herself in the mirror and asking herself how far she trusts herself to go with Eddie. Because that's sort of the problem? She wants pretty much everything with Eddie. She just doesn't trust herself to have it and not somehow ruin the relationship over it.

Which is why she decided on what she thinks she wants to try tonight before she even saw him, because it's harder to think about reasons why she can't just rip his pants off and ride him in his truck when he has his lips on her skin. She hadn't really thought of the sundress she'd thrown on for their date as particularly sexy (cute, yes, but not sexy), but Jesus, he is testing her resolve with the way he uses the skin it bares as an excuse to keep touching her.]


I was thinking - [She breathes past a flash of nerves.] I'd like to see you get yourself off?
onlythingthatmatters: (004)

[personal profile] onlythingthatmatters 2025-02-22 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah? [For a moment, she's worried that this is - too weird? Not something he'd be comfortable? Actually a terrible idea now that she's said it out loud? But the way his voice changes when he says yes makes her feel more confident that he's into it, just. Probably not expecting that to be the first thing out of her mouth.

She shivers into the kiss and leans into him, her arms slipping into place around him.]
Not just you. Unless you wanted it to be...?

[ There's a call that comes in, and Eddie should be worried, because it's not on facetime.

This should be in person. This shouldn't be a call. But he doesn't trust himself to drive all the way to Texas right now, and he knows he could crash on Eddie's couch but he doesn't really have a place to stay, and his team's short-staffed, and and and-

- And the whole world feels like it's spinning, every time Buck catches a breath. He's angry, and he's sad, and he didn't say I love you back. At the time, he'd felt it be too real, like saying the words would cement Bobby's fate. All he had to do was survive, and come out of those doors, and Buck would have told him.

He shouldn't have waited.

He feels like he's going to be sick, but he presses the call button, and waits.

[ There's a silence, at first, as Buck tries to pull himself together. But Eddie could read his sighs and silences, and he can probably hear how Buck frowns and how his nose flares, the way it does when he's trying to keep himself from getting emotional. ]

I, uh. Yeah.

[ He clears his throat, but his voice cracks again almost immediately. It's punctuated with a sniff; he's been crying. That much is obvious with the depth and hoarseness of his voice, with the deliberate slowness of his words as if he's trying to force them out. ]

Are you sitting down? Chris isn't with you?

[ There's a shuffle of cloth as he wipes his eyes. Maybe he should have waited, but Eddie deserves to know. Eddie deserved to be here, in person, to radio in and say goodbye, to give him his last words in passing. Or maybe Buck's just feeling guilty again, about what he said, about how he couldn't muster a response to I love you, kid.

He looks up and chokes back his tears.

[Look.

Buck knew this day would come. It had to, realistically, especially when she started having trouble fitting in her pants. And it didn't happen overnight, but still, somehow it just - looks a lot bigger this morning than it did last night. And yeah, Eddie's shift is done in an hour and she could leave it til then, but instead, he's getting a picture of her poking lightly at her stomach. The baby bump is mostly just a rounding of her stomach right now, but it's noticeable.
