    Summary

    “It’s also that I like sex,” is what he says instead, and hates how pathetic it sounds. “And it’s fun, but it’s like—unless it’s with someone really important, it’s kind of the same level as going to the movies?”

    Eddie smiles at him. Somehow, impossibly, it’s even softer than the last time, sweet at the edges.

    “What if it is with someone really important?” he asks, and squeezes, his fingers pressing into the hollows between the bones of Buck’s hand.

    or: buck picks up a pamphlet, has an existential crisis, and shows up at eddie's door, in that order.

    Summary

    “Buck,” Eddie says, and tugs on one of the uneven strings of Buck’s hoodie, and then Buck’s crying again.

    “You’ve gotta stop talking to me, man,” he tries to laugh, and Eddie doesn’t know what to do with his goddamn hands, because he should absolutely be reaching out, should be holding Buck close, but he’s so fucking afraid.

    in which tears bring clarity.

    Summary

    Buck turns to look towards the truck then, and Eddie sees the exact moment that Buck clocks him. His face lights up into a wide smile, his whole body shining in the pink glow as he stands taller, his shoulders wider as he raises a hand to wave at him, and Eddie can practically see the joy radiating off of him.

    Eddie feels himself smiling back automatically. He wants to get out, wants to run to him and get down on both knees and tell Buck that he is all he needs, all he wants. He wants to tell Buck that he can stop looking because Eddie is here, Eddie knows him and wants him and loves --

    Eddie freezes, hands gripping the steering wheel again.

    Because Eddie loves him.

    And Eddie promptly flips the car into reverse and peels out of the parking lot before Buck gets to the truck.

    Summary

    He woke up drowning.
     

    It wasn’t the first time and it’d probably not be the last. The sensation of suspension surrounded by water was as familiar as an old friend.

    ----

    Chris didn't fall into the water on the day of the Tsunami but Buck did.
