Summary
“Stop right there, young man” Eddie orders and hates to realize he just said one of the phrases he hated to hear from his own father. Chris sits back down, defeat taking over his face. “You must tell Buck” he says and Buck frowns, Eddie thinks it's adorable and hates his body for reacting automatically to every action his best friend does. So Eddie hides his smile with his left hand, he has his arm resting on the couch and crosses his legs.
“But Dad!” Chris complains and for some reason the situation seems too funny to Eddie. Maybe it's Buck's face, Chris' desperation, that his brain is finally taking in what's going on, or that SpongeBob is still in the background. “Do I really have to do this?”
“Christopher Díaz, you're the one who got us into this situation.”
Or, Chris tells a lie at school and now Eddie and Buck must give a talk about love and work pretending to be fiances.

Summary
“You’re protective of Buck. That’s natural, even if you know he can take care of himself. And especially considering how much you care about him,” Frank observes. “But it’s also clear you’re not just upset as a friend—you’re upset because you have deeper feelings for him. And watching him in a relationship where he doesn’t seem entirely happy... it’s bound to be hard for you.”
Eddie presses his lips together. “Yeah, and that’s the problem. I shouldn’t feel this way. It shouldn’t be this hard to see my best friend with someone else.”
“But it is,” Frank says gently, a small, knowing smile playing on his lips. “Because you love him.”With Christopher still in Texas and Buck preoccupied with his new relationship, Eddie has a lot of time for therapy, exploring, and pining hopelessly over his best friend— all while trying not to strangle said best friend's boyfriend in the process.
