Letters from the Heart by BugTheCyborg Word Count: 45,000 “Hey,” Evan said, raising his voice a little to be heard through the open window. “Why don't you send me a letter sometime? A little snail mail. You know my address, yeah?” Eddie laughed, throwing his head back, and waved him away. Evan would probably never see Eddie again, as much as he wished he would. What were the chances he'd actually write? Evan had been half joking, and no one even sent letters nowadays. Three weeks later, Evan opened his mailbox. Sitting there, mixed in with the bills and flyers, was a lightly crumpled envelope with an Army Post Office return address.

He took care of Queen and loved her, but of course, she started to wilt. So, what else could Eddie do but pack up his son and the plant, drive over to the botanist that came to speak to their class, and find out what was wrong with the plant?

Secret Partner Buddie Recs
My all-time favorite buddie trope, here's some fics where Buck and/or Eddie start at the 118, and no one knows that they have a partner. Could be because its too hard to talk about, could be not actually a secret, or sometimes its because Buck forgot to mention it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
-----
Got Your Measure by thelonggoodbye
Word Count: 5,568
Hen is relatively certain she has their new probie, Buck, figured out. Him saying he has a husband throws her for a loop, but who hasn't lied to a naked man in handcuffs flirting with them before? But Buck only gets more confusing from there.
-----
I Didn't Mean to Say I Do, But I Do by schrijverr
Word Count: 213,342
AKA: Secret marriage of convenience buddie slow burn AU, where Buck and Eddie have been married for years so Buck could adopt Chris and no one at the 118 knows. Note: Additionally, All of the AUAU's in the series!
-----
Monday (You Could Fall Apart) by pansys_goth_gf
Word Count: 11,855
Or, Evan Buckley enlists in the army fresh out of high school and falls in love with his best friend. Things spiral from there. From the prompt “Secretly Married”
-----
Missing Pieces by AshwinMeird
Word Count: 9,179
Hen was not sure what to make of the new recruit, Evan "Buck" Buckley. He was reckless and that was about as much as she knew about him. That eventually changes though and all the important parts of Buck's life reveal themselves to her over time.
-----
When You Come Home by 7ate9
Word Count: 19,829
Buck was surviving. That was the least he could do. Survive with his son, his new position as a probationary firefighter, while his fiance was overseas. It was too painful to talk about. So no one could know.
-----
Enter Buck by rangerdanger (mxgicxltrxgedy)
Word Count: 3, 546
Or, 5 times Eddie let his crew peek behind the curtain of his life + 1 time he had to slam the door open for them.
…
Or, Hen & Chim don't know that Eddie's wife and his best friend Buck are the same person.
-----
Any More Secret Family? by Duckkey
Word Count: 10,480
When Buck becomes a probationary firefighter at the 118, he doesn't mean to keep his family a secret. It's just hard to talk about his husband and son when Eddie's deployed overseas. At least if he can't talk to the 118 about Eddie and Chris, he can still talk to Eddie and Chris about the 118.
-----
Fanboy by Astroash94 Word Count: 1,264 Evan Buckley is a fanboy. Eddie Diaz does his own stunts.

any fic I recommend in these posts I have personally read and enjoyed. some things will end up on multiple lists because I love them or I forgot I already posted them
always check the tags and warnings on fics, things I recommend may not be the right fit for you!
if you are an author of a fic that I link and you don't want it posted on here please send me a message and I will remove it!
similarly, if you are an author of a fic that I rec and you want to be tagged in the post let me know and I will tag you!
remember to show authors love by leaving kudos and comments!
