    Summary

    “Your safety is my priority right now. How long have you been thinking about this?” he repeats.

    Eddie wants to tell him that it only happened yesterday, but then he thinks about quarantine, and when Shannon died, and when she left for LA after he was discharged, and when he found out Chris was diagnosed with cerebral palsy, and when Shannon told him she was pregnant, and when he was ten and his dad yelled at him for crashing his new truck because his mom was in labor and nobody was around to take her to the hospital. He thinks about how he wanted to disappear every time, wished for something to kill him so that he didn’t have to face his fears, deal with reality. It hits him like his dad’s truck hit the tree.

    “Since I was in elementary school,” he admits breathlessly.

    Summary

    Eddie lets himself break a little, now that the only thing that can keep him upright is here, breathing heavy against his neck. His stomach coils tight, and the heat from Buck warms Eddie up from the inside out. His arms comes around to Buck's shoulders, and he tugs him a little closer.

    When he huffs a breath out against the top of Buck's shoulder, it comes out choked, and Buck whispers something against his neck before he repeats it, louder.

    "Hey, it's okay. We're gonna find him."

    Buck separates them, still holding both of his arms in a death grip, and Eddie looks into his eyes, seeing the fierce conviction behind them before he says it again.

    "We're going to find him."

    Eddie has to believe that. For himself. For his son.

    And for Buck.

    Summary

    And here’s the thing. If Buck was paying just a little more attention, he probably would’ve clocked what the pain in his middle meant a lot sooner. It wouldn’t change the outcome, sure, but he’d at least be ahead of the curve.

    The worst part is that it’s all rather obvious in retrospect, because the signs are all there. The flickering lights. The gymnasium air rippling and warping like heat off pavement. The dark patches on everyone’s suits and dresses.

    He should’ve seen it.

    But all he sees is Eddie. Everything else is just white noise and set dressing.

    Or: Buck's never been to prom.

    Summary

    “Tommy said what?” Eddie’s voice was low, controlled.

    Buck chuckled nervously. “He called you his competition. Said he wanted to get back together since the ‘competition’ was out of the way.”

    Eddie looked straight at Buck. His expression faltered, just for a second, before he schooled it back into careful calm. Just like that, Buck lost any hope that they could laugh this off and forget about it. Eddie knew exactly what Tommy meant by that, what it meant about Buck.

    “Buck…”

    Summary

    “Who the hell is Evan?” Buck asks.

    “Ummmmm, you?” Eddie draws in his bottom lip as a giggle makes an attempt at freedom. Doing this while wine-tipsy is making it significantly more difficult. “That’s your name.”

    “That’s not my name to you.”

    “That’s the name on our marriage license.”

    What if you were GAY and at WINE NIGHT and you called your husband his LEGAL NAME to win MONEY… Eddie Diaz can relate.
