They've always been close, too close.
Between fires, sleepless nights, and quiet glances across crowded rooms, Buck and Eddie have built something unspoken. Something steady. Something they both pretend not to feel.
But silence can only hold so much.
And sometimes, the words we never say start to weigh more than the ones we do.
What We Don't Say is a slow-burn emotional journey through fear, friendship, heartbreak, and the moments that change everything, quietly, completely, and forever.
Because some love stories aren't loud.
They're the ones that linger in what we don't say...
Until we finally do.

*Warning, this story contains child abuse and neglect, homophobia, minor and brief suicidal ideations* If there is one thing that Buck knows, it's that he's not enough to get people to stay. He's had a family who barely acknowledged he was there and another that just left him behind. A sister who pushed him away, giving him keys to a car and a debit card to an account he had no interest in having. Bobby and Marcy were the only people he could count on. Then he meets Eddie Diaz. But even he broke his heart, leaving in the middle of the night just as they were planning a life together. All he left was a note that held no answers. Buck was once again, not enough. Moving to LA is a fresh start for Buck and for Bobby, things are good. After almost 7 years Buck is finally feeling like he's in a place where he's ready to trust someone again when he meets Abby. And even when she leaves, things still feel good, not perfect but good. Until Bobby introduces the 118's newest recruit. Eddie Diaz.Complete
