Summary
“Can I be a little brash?”
He swallows, nervous. “Shoot.”
In a move he will shortly regret, he lifts his beer and takes the final sip of his drink.
“Eddie, I’d like to go home with you. You’re the hottest guy I’ve seen this entire night, and my lovely lesbians have abandoned me.”
He blinks, stunned. The final sip of his beer stalls halfway to his mouth.
“And I gotta be honest … I’ve never really felt like three is a crowd, you know? So, if your friend is of that … persuasion, I wouldn’t mind the extra company.”
Eddie chokes, coughing hard enough to draw a few looks. Then, recovering semi-quickly, he stammers out, “Uh– ha. Well. I– I don’t think he’d– I don’t know if it’s his speed– or, uh–”
“We can ask!”
or how to only kind of have a threesome.

Summary
Buck just has the kind of face that makes people want to ask him to be their third, apparently. Except when he's hanging out with Eddie; then people ask to be their third. Either way, it's fun, right?

Summary
“You didn’t tell me your agent’s name was Dick,” Eddie says, halfway to a laugh.
Buck tries to force a smile onto his face, but it won’t come. “Yeah, he didn’t mention that before. Apparently, that was info he only wanted to share with you.”
“Oh, weird,” Eddie says, like it’s not worth thinking about. “Still funny, though.”
“Hilarious,” Buck says as he pulls into the street and Eddie types in the next address.
OR
The problem isn't that Buck's real estate agent is into Eddie or that Eddie seems to like it; it's a matter of professionalism.

Summary
He should be glad of it. He doesn’t want people to know he’s struggling, and they don’t. But why doesn’t Buck know? He’s always known, always seen through Eddie’s carefully constructed walls and carved himself a door into them. Even when Eddie resisted, even when he pushed back, Buck ducked his head and shoved through and found the tender hurt Eddie was guarding, cupped his hands around it and held until it didn’t ache so much.
And now Eddie’s bleeding internally, swollen with regret, and Buck doesn’t say a thing. Eddie can’t ask him to. If he opens his mouth, he might just start screaming.
~
There's distance between Eddie and Buck. Eddie isn't falling apart. These are two equally true statements.
