AN: I saw on Gavin's Instagram (Christopher) That one his favorite things to do is surf so included that in here. Plus, on the show Eddie and him were said to been taking lessons in season 2. I have added two original characters in this chapter. I thought about all the people that has been shown on the show that 20 squad has somehow helped. I added in this someone that Rocker did that I made up.

Summary: This has the five of them spending the morning together before Eddie, Christopher and Rocker split off going to a shop to look around. Eddie and Christopher meet two people that know Rocker and Tommy.

Title: You Mean More To Me, Eddie

Eddie was glad that after five days of being miserable he was feeling better. Minus Bobby and Ravi everyone on their shift had gotten the stomach bug. Almost the entire B shift hadn't been out for that long in who knew how long. It hadn't just been the 118 either. A ton of other firefighters had gotten it. Even the fire chief had been affected by it. Eddie was wondering if Rocker, Tommy, Bobby and Ravi didn't have some kind of magic in their DNA.

Athena had gotten sick along with May and Harry too. Even some of the ones at S.W.A.T. had gotten sick. Rocker had found out that his boss had ended up sick while he'd been off. There wasn't a lot that could get Hicks to take some time off, but he'd been out. It had been brutal, but thankfully all were doing better.

It was why Eddie was hoping that since their stomachs were doing better that he could get Rocker to finally cave to them getting alone together. He could not wait another day to finally be able to enjoy the pleasure of his boyfriend, completely. He hadn't been able to enjoy that shower with his boyfriend when he'd gotten the chance. Being sick had taken the fun out of it. The day was wide open and he couldn't wait to get his hands on Rocker.

The day before he'd had to work, but Rocker and Tommy had been off. They had taken Christopher to the wildlife rescue. He had gotten pictures off and on all day of the three of them. The place had an area that people who visited could stay for a night. Christopher had been over the moon about it. Buck had been pouting because he hadn't gotten to go. His best friend had been telling everyone on shift all the facts he knew about the animals that they got pictures of.

Eddie had saved one of the pictures that had Christopher and Rocker. Tommy had taken the picture of them. The co-owner of the sanctuary had waited for when they'd felt better to release the bald eagle. The picture had the two of them next to the eagle as it was taking flight. The guy had stood just out of view and Tommy had gotten the picture just right to capture it. It looked like the Eagle was going to pick Christopher up because it had flown right over his head. It was something magical about watching a wild animal get to be released back into the wild. One of the other people there had taken video of it as well. He'd showed it to the 118 family. The video had made it look even more amazing. He had wished he could have been there too, but there would be other times.

Christopher had video called him before he'd gone to bed the night before. They had been camping outside. His son had been almost too excited from the day to go to sleep. They had talked for almost an hour about everything that happened. Christopher had turned the camera at one point giving him a look beside him. Rocker had been asleep on his left with an air mattress to himself. Tommy on the right with another air mattress. Christopher had joked that they couldn't deal with the hard ground. Christopher had wanted the authentic touch to camping out. Only a sleeping bag between him and the ground.

He'd gotten Christopher to take a picture and send it to him of Rocker sleeping. He'd made that the lockscreen on his phone where the home had been of Christopher and Rocker both. He'd changed the pictures every few days. He had one of the five of them during the stomach virus too. Christopher had taken it then as well being in the middle of the four adults. They'd gotten in as close as they could. The selfie stick that Christopher had borrowed from Buck, but never returned had come in handy too.

Rocker: Morning babe, you want to meet us for breakfast? We just got back into the area. Buck's on his way.

Eddie: Where are you eating at?

Rocker: Tommy and Christopher were craving pancakes and waffles. So we're at one Mama's Homemade Kitchen. Six years ago, there was a hostage situation here. Owner's son. I didn't pull the trigger, instead talked her son down. One of those times when I saw that it didn't need it to end with a bullet. He hadn't hurt anyone and ended up the gun was never loaded. As a thanks she said I eat free, but I always leave her a tip.

Eddie: I'll be there in ten, baby. Tommy's taken us there before. I'm so glad that it ended that way and not the other. Order me something with waffles along with sausage. Oh and if they have fruit for the tops of the waffles I'd like strawberries and peaches. No syrup or whip cream though, but butter. I love whip cream, just not on the pancakes or waffles. (wink)

Rocker: Drive safe, me too.

~ER BT ER BT ER BT~

By the time Eddie got there, because traffic had not been good, ten minutes turned to twenty, Buck was there too. Both of their plates were just being brought out so the timing had been perfect. The waffles were stacked three high with the right amount of butter on them. There were strawberries not only on top, but inside. Peaches on top with linked sausages on the side. Eddie was sure that he was going to be in a sugar coma, but it did look wonderful. Buck had a plate with eggs, sausage, bacon and blueberry pancakes. Whip cream, syrup and butter loaded on them. A bowl of fruit on the side and water.

Christopher had a mix of waffles and pancakes both. Fruit on top of them with a spoon of ice cream. Eddie was thankful his son didn't have sugar issues. Though he did monitor the intact so that wouldn't happen. It wasn't like he ate that for every meal. With Buck and now Tommy in their lives, there was definitely not an issue on what to eat for more healthy choices. Tommy had even managed to get them both to eat green bean casserole. Buck had failed at it even when he'd tricked them.

Tommy had the same as Christopher for the most part, he hadn't gotten the ice cream though. He'd gotten chocolate syrup, whip cream and fruit. Eddie knew the man had a major sweet tooth. He'd watched him eat a three layer sundae once. Fruit, nuts, whip cream and chocolate sauce with crumbled up Oreo and peanut butter cookies. His stomach would have ached. Christopher had gotten one too, but he'd split it with Buck and him since neither one could have eaten the whole thing.

Eddie looked at his boyfriend's breakfast and he was pretty sure that Rocker's topped theirs. At least on the stuff on it. He wasn't sure where his boyfriend was going to put it. He had a stack of mixed fruit waffles that were being cut up. Chocolate syrup and ice cream between each layer with fruit too. Bacon bites in a bowl along with what looked like gravy and biscuit with sausage patty in a second one. There was no way he'd be able to eat that all mixed together if it was him. He thought there was also scrambled eggs in the bowl with the gravy. He just thanked god that Rocker wasn't planning on adding the gravy and stuff to the ice cream waffles. He might have gotten sick.

"What?" Rocker asked noticing Eddie watching him. "I'm starving. We left the sanctuary before daylight and went surfing. I got a waterproof go pro camera. I took some pictures. Christopher was awesome on those waves." He smiled leaning over and kissing Eddie. It was tame compared to some since they were in public. He could not give him a kiss that would be NC-17 or above.

"I'm just trying to figure where you're going put all that. I mean I've said I was hungry enough to eat a horse before, but I think you might be attempting it." Eddie joked when they broke the kiss. He leaned in a little whispering the next part. "It's like you know you're going need that energy for when I get you alone later. Strip you down and have some fun."

"You two better behave, dad. You can be alone tonight." Christopher said. "I already asked if I could stay with Buck and Tommy tonight."

He wasn't crazy he knew that his dad and Rocker wanted some alone time. He'd accidentally over heard Buck and his dad talking the other week. He didn't want to think about his dad having that kind of life behind a door with anyone, but knew it happened. He had been giving both sex talks. Buck and Tommy had covered he same sex, sex talk months ago.

That had been kind of funny since his dad said they both had to do it. After all being gay and bi were two separate things. Watching Buck stumble his way through it had been hilarious. Tommy had been a little better, but when they'd finished, he'd told them he already knew. The internet had a lot of details and he had been curious. He'd just wanted to know what they'd say before he told them that.

"I, um, you two don't have to." Eddie started.

"Nope, you two need alone time. We're going to have a date night with Christopher. Pizza, the new Twisters movie. So, you don't have to worry about anything." Buck said before he leaned so only Eddie could hear since he was right next to him. "If Rocker is truly Tommy's twin in all the meaning of it. You are going to have a beast of a cock going into you tonight. Trust me, you will want to be alone with him. Be able to scream the house down when you're getting railed." He laughed as he pulled away patting Eddie on the back when he started coughing.

"Don't try and kill my boyfriend before tonight, Buck. I'll have to hurt you. Then Christopher and Tommy will hurt me." Rocker said giving Buck a look as he rubbed Eddie's chest making sure he was okay.

"What are we going to do with them?" Christopher asked looking at Tommy.

"I'm not sure. I'm totally in love with your other dad so I guess I'm in trouble too." Tommy said looking at Evan.

He wasn't sure what he'd said to Eddie, but he had a feeling it had something to do with tonight. He hadn't minded at all when Christopher had asked him the night before about staying at his house. Rocker had been asking him for ideas for the last two weeks on how he could make things special for Eddie. If should do something kind of big or make it low key. His brother had also felt guilty about asking if when time did come if Christopher could stay with Evan or him. He hadn't wanted Christopher to think he didn't want him around.

He could tell his brother wasn't just falling, he'd already fell in love with Eddie, and Christopher too. He'd told him Christopher wouldn't think that. He was thirteen after all, he was at the age he knew adults needed alone time together. It wasn't like it hadn't happened with Eddie's exes with Christopher home before. The bedroom door shut and locked. Though the first time he got why they wanted some alone time.

So, when Christopher asked, he'd said yes. Evan had been added to the idea afterwards in case Maddie had needed him or he'd picked up an extra shift. It was the same plan, just with his boyfriend and future stepson. He'd known from day one Evan was a package deal. He saw no one else in his future being with Evan. The man had ruined him from ever being with anyone else. When they got married, it was when, not if, he'd get a teenage son too. One that agreed with him on the which Star Wars movie was better too.

"You four are hopelessly in love. At least I get four dads when you're married." Christopher sighed before he started eating his breakfast.

May and Harry had three dads, but having four would be like this world event that he didn't know if anyone else had. Some might not get it, but he didn't care. He could have two dads and two stepdads if he wanted. Tommy and Rocker were good to his dads. They were both cool as well. They were awesome towards him too. They'd taken him so many places since he'd met them.

"Wasn't trying to kill him. Just giving him a little advice." Buck grinned before he picked up his fork and started eating.

The first time that Tommy and he had sex with him being the bottom had been world ending almost. The first few times they'd had sex Tommy had let him top. Let him set the pace. He'd always topped so he'd given him that option. It had been about a month and then he'd wanted to have Tommy inside of him. He'd been experimenting, but Tommy had nothing on those toys. His boyfriend had opened him up so fucking slow that night. They'd spent three hours on oral. He'd never had that much time with his exes. He'd felt loved and cherished. He'd never cried during sex before, but he had then. He hadn't been taken care of like that.

"Advice huh?" Rocker asked. "Want to share that advice he gave you with me, babe?" Rocker asked.

"Maybe later, if you are a good boy." Eddie said with a grin. "Might even show you." He gave a wink before he started eating.

He hadn't needed Buck telling him how gifted Rocker was. Dear god he'd seen it in the laundry room that day. Plus, the shower that day it had been gorgeous even soft. He hadn't felt anything, been too sick. However, he had wondered more than once how that was going in his ass. Or his mouth for that matter. Rocker telling him he could deep throat if he practiced. He had tried it before he'd gotten sick. He'd gotten one of those dildos, strawberry lube, but hadn't managed to get it all the way in. He'd sent the picture to Rocker though. The reply had been warn me next time that its not work appropriate.

Apparently, Rocker had opened it in the locker room. It wasn't his fault that his boyfriend had to work a nightshift that night and he was all alone wanting him. He had been told not to even think about cumming or using it anywhere on his body. That was going to be his job. Eddie had only replied he'd do his best. He wanted the first thing in his ass to be Rocker though. At least dildo wise. He wouldn't mind trying out a plug in advance.

"Remember, when I do get you alone and naked that I'm not just going to fuck you." Rocker said in Eddie's ear. "It'll be at least two maybe three hours before I sink into you. Don't want to hurt you, babe."

He placed a kiss on Eddie's cheek before sitting back in his chair. He smiled seeing Eddie's eyes that were full of heat. He started eating because he wanted to get the rest of the day started. He never wanted Christopher to feel like he was trying to take all of Eddie's time. He also didn't want him to think he didn't want him around. Christopher had told him that he didn't. He felt plenty of love an attention from all four of them. There was no way he'd feel left out or like his dad was spending too much time with him. He also reminded him that he had been spending time with him. It wasn't like he was only wanting his dad. He also respected that Buck was his other dad, that he had to be included at times. There was no hardship in that. He liked Buck and they got along great.

~BT ER BT ER BT ER~

Before they left Rocker had introduced Eddie, Christopher and Buck to Jase. He had come in when they had been finishing breakfast. It had been nice to meet the now 21-year-old who was a long way from the depressed angry teenager that had wanted to die. Eddie could understand that feeling of wanting to die but not being able to do it himself. He'd been there more than once. Jase had also had a layer of bullying and being rejected by his dad because he was gay. Eddie had been able to tell from the way the man talked about Rocker and Tommy both that they had made a difference in his life. Rocker choosing to not pull the trigger was a big part of it.

Eddie didn't want to think about how much it might have hurt his boyfriend if it had gone differently. Especially since Jase hadn't loaded the gun. Jase had invited them to come with Rocker and Tommy to his wedding in two months. Thanks to Rocker he'd taken the chance and asked his best friend out. It had turned out the best friend had been in love with him too, but was too scared to ask. Jase had gotten the help he'd needed to keep living. It was nice getting to see how sometimes talking could make a difference. Someone else might not have seen what Rocker had that day. Had the feeling that he had about Jase. Split second decisions matter just like trusting your gut at times.

"What are you thinking about?" Rocker asked sliding his hand into Eddie's.

They had parted ways from Buck and Tommy after breakfast. Christopher was still with them until that evening. They were walking towards one of the antic stores he went to at times that he got his frames at. He'd finished two that he needed frames for. One was one of Eddie and Christopher that he'd painted into a fantasy world. He'd added Buck and Tommy into it as well. At the last minute he'd included his self because when Christopher had seen it he'd said he had to be in there too.

"Just thinking how amazing my boyfriend is. Even though he sees a lot of horrible things in people. He's got a wonderful heart and can tell the difference in a no hope in a situation and being someone's hope." Eddie said. "When I had my first break down. I asked Buck what did it all matter. The people I saved had died one way or another. It had been for nothing. He took me to the horse therapy and riding place Christopher goes to sometimes. He pointed out a kid that we'd saved. I got shot being on that call. It wasn't even ours. I'd seen the signs that kid needed help. When he called I didn't hesitate to go. It ended with me almost dying, but even knowing the outcome I'd do it again. He's alive because I didn't ignore the signs. You didn't either and Jase is still alive." He explained.

"You're amazing too. I remember you telling me about that. I gotta make choices in less than a heartbeat at times. Pull the trigger save someone or try talking to them. Find a connection and use that. I hadn't even had the training to talk him down at the time. Mumford was the only one that knew I was gay at the time. It hadn't just been us there. It was a few other cops and the mobile command center. Hicks gave me permission after I told him I knew I could reach him. I outed myself. I didn't hide it in my personal life, but I'd never said anything at work. Let people think what they wanted. It could have gone badly, but what he was saying. It was what I'd felt, Tommy had too. Our parents don't want anything to do with us. Yet, if we do see our dad, it doesn't go well. Some of the cops gave me looks after that day. I didn't give a damn though. I had others telling me that nothing changed. They still had my back." Rocker said as they walked.

"Wow, that was a brave move. I can get personal life and professional life keeping things to yourself. I didn't know Tommy was gay at first. I didn't see it, but you can't judge a person by looks. Their past either because things change a person." Eddie said.

"Most people can't see that either one of us are gay. Then you have you that until we met, you didn't know you could be into guys." Rocker said.

"No, not guys, I'm only into you, baby." Eddie said stopping before he pulled Rocker into a kiss. "I can assure you there is no other guy I have ever felt this way about. I mean you are a twin for Pete sake and I feel no burning desire to do wicked things to Tommy. Nope, you are the only one that I have the need to be with." He leaned in kissing Rocker again. This time letting it go on for little longer.

"Dad, future dad, you are not spending all day making out." Christopher said giving them a look. "You can hold hands and kiss occasionally, but that level is not for public."

Eddie and Rocker broke apart from the kiss trying to catch their breaths. "Sorry, Ace. You're right I keep doing that I'll have to arrest my own self." Rocker said. Eddie wasn't the only one having that little heart skip. Hearing Christopher call him future dad had made it a little hard to swallow. It was the first time he'd dropped the step part. "We're actually here anyway."

"I hope to see you in those cuffs soon." Eddie said in a low voice not wanting Christopher to hear. "Sorry, buddy. I promise we'll behave. No need to put us in time out." He hadn't meant to get lost in the kiss. At least their hands had stayed put though.

"You're forgiven. I know you can't help that you love each other. Buck and Tommy get lost in each other too. Though Tommy is more discreet about wanting to swallow Buck's face whole." Christopher laughed.

Rocker couldn't help the laugh that came out. It didn't freak him out like it might some when Christopher said the part about loving each other. Getting to know Eddie in the last month had been great. In a way he'd spent more time with Christopher than Eddie. He didn't mind it either. The teenager was a ray of sunshine. It was clear that Eddie and Buck had done a great job raising him so far. He could see some of Shannon there too from what he'd been told about her.

On one of those days he'd spent with Christopher while Eddie had been working they'd gone to Shannon's grave. Christopher had wanted to go because he'd been missing her that day a lot. He'd introduced him to his mom. They'd sat there while Christopher caught her up on things. He hadn't just listened though he'd also said a few things to Shannon too. He understood that need to talk to a grave like the person was still around. He did the same thing at times. It wasn't just on the birthday or anniversary of Erika's death either. She'd been a really great friend, and she was family even if she was gone.

He'd taken Christopher to her grave when he'd asked that day. He'd said she was still looking out for him. Just like Shannon was them. They were friends in heaven and had conspired to get them together. He had liked that theory, and he could have seen it. Erika had tried figuring out his type that one night at the bar. She'd been sitting with Tommy, Chris and him picking random guys in the bar that he could talk to. Chris and Tommy had been helping her. And she had gone and gotten one guy bringing him back to the table. The guy had been cute, but he had nothing on Eddie. His boyfriend was perfect in his opinion. He wished that Erika could have met Eddie.

He'd told Christopher the edited version. Less cussing and death threats to the three of them. He had been ready to murder the three of them. They had been having fun though. He'd needed the fun that night. He had danced with the guy but hadn't gone home with him. They may have done some heavy kissing and grinding against each other though. When he had gotten home he'd gone to bed taking care of the lead he had in his jeans. He was hoping that he'd get to take Eddie there to her grave one day. He shook his mind of those thoughts though holding the door open for Eddie and Christopher to go in first.

~BT ER BT ER BT~

Going inside the store it was bigger than it looked on the outside Eddie thought. It had so many things, but it wasn't bogged down either. They browsed around looking at all the neat things. Christopher found a section with ventage video games going through those. Rocker told him a few that were fun. Eddie took his phone out getting a picture of the two of them. He added it to the growing collection. It used to be hundreds of pictures of Christopher and him. A few of Shannon as well.

Then Buck was added to the mix. He'd had to get one of the larger memory cards for his phone. He also had photo albums of them printed out too. Then close to eight months back Tommy came along. All four of them in pictures and now Rocker too. It didn't include the ones of the rest of the 118. He was sure there were over three thousand pictures he had. He had them backed up as well.

After the video games, which they picked out a few, they'd gone looked around more. Rocker had found one of the TV hook ups for a Pac Man and Galaga controller from a decade or so back when they'd first been released that way. He'd played those games himself, but in the arcade. Christopher hadn't had the chance to play them though. Which Rocker said they were fixing. It was his job to make sure Christopher could win against Buck and especially Tommy. He'd laughed because apparently Tommy had always beat Rocker out in the games. Holding the top three spots from when they'd been teens.

He knew that Christopher had knocked out Luca's scores on the arcade games that he had at his place. Rocker had taken him there one day just to hang out with his friend. He'd actually asked Rocker if Luca had been the friend he'd been sleeping with. The answer had been no, he didn't date cops and Luca wasn't gay or bi as far as he knew. Though he had thought about it more than once if he didn't have those rules. He'd also admitted he'd more than once fantasied about Deacon when he'd first joined S.W.A.T.

"Oh wow, that's yours." Christopher said when they got to a wall that had art for sale up. "You didn't say you sold any." The painting had a family of wolves in it with the full moon in the background.

"Whenever he retires from S.W.A.T. he could make a living off selling the paintings he does." A woman said coming from one of the rooms. "Though I don't know if he ever will. He does love his job." She smiled. "I'm Cheyenne. I own this place here. I've known him for about ten years." She said. "I met Tommy first though."

"Hey Cheyenne. I'd like you to meet Eddie and Christopher Diaz. If I ever do retire, they'd be the reason behind it." Rocker said with a smile.

Meeting Eddie and Christopher he'd got why Mumford had retired. It had shocked him at first, but he'd been happy for him. Finally finding the right woman after all those years. He'd always teased him about it, but the last one had so far still been a success. He knew Deacon had come close to retiring then he hadn't gone through with it. He knew Luca had hated being forced to retire. He kept a check on him making sure he was okay. They'd been friends before he'd retired so him not being around HQ hadn't changed that. Once family always family. He had heard the rumors about the former 20 David leader Buck. How he'd almost killed himself because of everything that happened. Being forced out of the job.

He'd never been able to picture a day when he wasn't S.W.A.T. It was in his blood more so than being on the Firearms Unit (Bomb Squad to most) had been. Now, he could see a day when he'd want to consider handing over 50 David to someone else. He knew he couldn't do it forever. He didn't want to have his retirement mean Eddie spreading his ashes somewhere. He knew Tommy felt the same way now that he was with Buck.

"You have an awesome store." Christopher said. "We met Tommy first too. It was funny because Tommy's boyfriend, who's my dad's best friend thought Rocker was Tommy. He kissed him and realized it wasn't. Then Buck thought it be funny to make us guess who was who." He laughed. "They started dating after that. Rocker and Tommy are cool. Not that my dad isn't, but it's a different level. They are a pilot and S.W.A.T. sergeant." He smiled proud of how awesome his future dads were. He knew not everyone would get what they had as a family. So he left out the extra details.

"Thank you." Cheyenne replied. "That would be funny to have seen."

"I actually told Buck that day that I wished I had someone to kiss me like that. Which now I do." Rocker smiled putting his arm tighter around Eddie.

"Thanks baby." Eddie blushed.

"You two are adorable together." Cheyenne smiled. "Okay, I want a picture of you three. Then I will get those frames I put back for you." She pulled out her phone. "I don't want to hear no pictures allowed either."

"I'm not objecting. I've learned not to say no to you." Rocker laughed.

He put his other arm around Christopher when he moved to his other side. He'd stopped fearing being found if a picture got out after he'd talked to Tommy. He hadn't gone nuts and deleted the safe folder on his phone, but he had stopped worrying if Eddie posted a picture would someone who might be flagging it find him. Tommy had told him that it could have by now, they were twins and Tommy had an Instagram. If it did come back to haunt him, he'd protect the ones he loved. He had more than Tommy at risk of that.

~TBC~

EN: Okay so I came up with a good plot line and will be doing a sequel story about what I'm hinting at in this story more than once about Rocker's past. I did do that question at the end of BI For You and everyone agreed Bomb Squad would be good for Rocker's past. I found out in LA it's also known as the Firearms Unit. They deal in all kinds of firearms as well as explosives. So it would for sure be a great idea. The next chapter will have them finally getting down to some love making. I already knew wouldn't happen here. Hope you loved this chapter. Thanks for reviews and kudos.
