Summary
“I-I need you do to something for me. I—” There’s a terrible wheeze and Bobby can almost see the man’s pinched face, desperately trying to smooth any indication of harm. “I need you to tell—”
“No.” Bobby says strongly into the radio, his eyes never wavering from the collapsed building. He feels himself losing it – he feels the same terrible ache snake in his spine then he did that night, smoke clouding his lungs. “No, firefighter, you’re not doing this. We’re clearing debris and we’ll—”
“Please?”
It’s small, almost childlike.
How could he ever deny a dying man’s request?

Summary
"Eddie,” Buck breathed. “I just want to be married to you.”
“Yeah?” Eddie asked because he felt like he had to say something, like he had to be sure, even with Buck wearing his ring and refusing to take it off even to shower when they got into the accommodations.
“Yeah.” Buck weaved their fingers together, the ring warm against Eddie’s skin, and he lifted their arms up until they were still linked, but resting on the pillow above his head.
Eddie smiled and reached his free hand down to bend Buck’s bad leg at the knee, “Let’s fucking do that, then.” He kissed him, a little messily, hard enough that he could feel Buck’s moan against his lips.
Evan Diaz, Eddie Diaz’s husband.
He really liked the sound of that.

Eddie's healed from being shot, but he's not really healed, is he, when he keeps forgetting he's not in Afghanistan. Buck's still healing too, though it's easier when Eddie's working at dispatch instead of in the field. The boys are engaged, they've got a wedding to plan and family to grow closer to.
It's season five... let's see just how strong these foundations are.
