Summary
“Sorry,” Eddie says suddenly, with a little frown between his eyebrows that makes Buck’s next breath come in a wheeze. “I didn’t even ask if you’re okay. Any anxiety? Shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat?”
“Not—uh,” Buck coughs, trying so hard to say something normal, but against his best efforts, what comes out is: “Not because of the elevator.”
Eddie’s eyebrows climb up his forehead.
“I’m not claustrophobic, is what I mean,” Buck says, but the damage has been done. “Just, you know.”
or the one in which buck stumbles on the rest of his life in a malfunctioning courthouse elevator.

“Eddito.” She reaches over, grasping his hands in hers. “I know you loved your Shannon. And I loved my Luis. He gave me my family, just as Shannon gave you your Christopher. And I know you wouldn’t change any of that. But I don’t want you to make the same mistakes I did. I don’t want you to have the same regrets. It is not too late for you. You should be happy. And I think we both know who it is that will give that to you.
“I know you think you have to give Christopher what you think he is missing. Christopher is not missing anything. You are a wonderful father, my Eddito. And everything else you already have. He is always there for you boys. He loves you.”
“He doesn’t,” Eddie says, voice thick with too much of everything he hasn’t let himself feel.
***
Abuela shares a secret that pops the lid on everything Eddie's been trying so hard to shove down.

Summary
“Hey, Eddie?”
Buck’s voice rings softly in the quiet. A casual lilt on his tongue as he says his name.
“Hm?”
“Tell you something?”
Shrugging, Eddie keeps his eyes fixed at the ceiling above him.
“We got time.”
--
Or, how Buck shattered Eddie's entire world one night by confessing his love to him.

Summary
“That’s not—” Eddie starts, but cuts himself off as he snaps his mouth shut. “It’s different, Buck.”
“How?” Buck asks, cheeks a heady pink. He steps into Eddie’s space, the anger nearly evaporating into something more quiet and devastating. “How is it different?”
And this. This is what breaks him.
“Because,” Eddie nearly yells, “you were able to save me from the line of fire, but I couldn’t pull you up the ladder!”

“Didn’t know you were seeing someone.”
Buck just laughs. Like, honest to god giggles. Eddie is stuck fighting off doubly massive waves of butterflies and confusion, all while Buck just gazes down at him.
“That’s cute,” he hears Buck mumble, just before climbing into the truck, calling Eddie after him.

Summary
He grew stiff, breathing heavily as he turned around to peer out at the lake out of habit and he nearly fell over at the sight that greeted him. Arthur, dressed in the same armour and blazing red cape, bearing the Pendragon crest, that Merlin had buried him in, stood at the water’s edge looking dazed and confused. Merlin held his breath as his blue eyes slowly found his and a cry tore itself past the warlock’s lips.
“Merlin!?” Arthur took an unsteady step forward and Merlin took one step back.
Arthur's return is not as happy and exciting as one might have expected it to be, but who can blame Merlin for not handling it well when he had practically given up hope?

Summary
“Have I ever been a good manservant?” Merlin asked, because he couldn’t very well say ask me for something else and see what I wouldn’t give to you. It should have been more insulting that this of all things was what finally made Arthur relax.
Merlin confuses a typical favor with one of the gift-giving, courtly variety when Camelot hosts a winter tournament. Arthur tries his hand at courtship.

Summary
“You’re like,” Merlin tries to explain it, if only so Arthur stops looking at him with that strange, unsure look, “a toothache.”
The new look on Arthur’s face is not a better one.
“A toothache?” he says, dead calm, “Are you serious? Are you honestly saying that you think being married to me would be like having a toothache? Merlin!”
“I’m going to bed,” Merlin says, bailing out now and ignoring all protesting sputtering, because this conversation is clearly a problem for future Merlin. He will soothe Arthur and make sure that he knows anyone would be lucky to be married to him, but in a really annoying way. Merlin will figure it out. Future Merlin, that is.
Not this one.
This one is already drooling onto his luxurious down pillow, blissfully unaware of what he has wrought.

"Say more," Merlin said after a while.
"More of what?" Arthur raised his hand to his lover's cheek and caressed it.
"More of those nice words," he muttered.
"Oh yeah?" Arthur teased. "You like hearing them?"

“He must care for you a great deal,” Hunith said.
Merlin brushed the words aside. “Arthur would do the same for any village; that’s just the way he is,” he said, shrugging on his coat.
“It’s more than that,” Hunith insisted. “He’s here for you.”Hunith sees how Merlin and Arthur are around each other, and she knows.

Summary
They used to be different, the dreams; they've changed over the years. The person condemning him to death used to be nothing more than an expressionless, vacant face attached to a man's body; yet when he moved to Camelot it became Uther: his face red with rage and veins throbbing at his temple and the side of his neck.
Those dreams were fine. Those, Merlin got used to.
Worse are the ones where it’s Arthur ordering his execution instead. Merlin can’t let go of those quite as easily.
