    Summary

    “I don’t know why you’re even here!” Eddie yells, voice just as loud, ringing—echoing in the nothingness of the once-home. “Just go back, okay?!” he adds, volume staying the same, stability rapidly decreasing, his eyes welling up in the moonlight pouring in through the window. “Alright? To her, or him, or both—and I’ll call you from the road, and I’ll say goodbye, and I’ll be back in El Paso, and…” If Eddie has more to say, it’s swallowed by the rapid way in which he’s breathing as he sinks back against the kitchen counter, the anger melting off of Buck’s shoulders as he carefully starts to approach him.

    Summary

    “Can you open your eyes?”

    “No. I can’t look at you.”

    “Because I’m gay?”

    Buck sighs dramatically.

    “Because you’re pretty. And because you’re gay. Because you’re gay and pretty.”

    “Buck,” Eddie laughs. “Open your eyes.”

     

    Or, Eddie comes out to Buck. Buck panics. Hijinks ensue.

    Summary

    There's a beat of silence. A smile blossoms on Buck's face. It starts with a twitch at the corner of his mouth, then spreads inwards. He purses his lips, almost like he's trying to contain it, then gives up and lets it bloom into a brilliant smirk, crooked and devastating on his warm lips. He cracks open one eye, the left one. The smirk creases his birthmark. It's the same shade of pink as his lips, the same color as the lightning scar.

    "Oh yeah?"

    Eddie clears his throat and frees his own sandwich from its plastic prison. "Eat so you don't collapse. Save us both the trouble."

    He can still feel Buck's eyes on him. "I don't break that easily."

    Or:

    Chris is 800 miles away, and Eddie's house feels emptier than ever. As always, Buck is right there, ready to have his back, to catch him without hesitation if he falls. This is familiar, this is normal, this is the way they've always been.
    This is fine, until it isn't.
    Until Eddie finds himself drawn to Buck in ways he never expected—ways that might not be so new at all.

    Summary

    Eddie connects his phone to the car speakers on his way to pick up Chris and calls the first person he thinks of.

    “Hey, Eddie,” Maddie greets, her voice crackling over the phone, a little confused if anything. Eddie doesn’t normally call her, but these aren’t normal circumstances.

    “Is Buck proposing to me?”

    It’s the only thing he can think of. He’s had an amazing day off of work full of amazing food and free time with Buck and sex. He knows it’s not their anniversary, either of them, or their birthdays, or any other significant days in their lives.

    “Wow. You’re really beating around the bush here.”

    “Is Buck proposing?” Eddie’s not panicking exactly, but he thought Buck wouldn’t be proposing so soon. If it's happening today he needs to know right now. “I swear, Maddie, tell me if you know something.”

    -

    Or, Buck's doing nice things for Eddie and he doesn't understand why.
