    Summary

    He’s not stupid. It took him some time — years — but Eddie’s half certain that, should his patience snap one day, should he lean in across the way one night when it’s just the two of them, should he palm at Buck’s jaw to bring his face closer and kiss him on the mouth, Buck would kiss him back. That’s not the problem.

    The problem is that Eddie’s gonna ruin it.

    He’s ruined every other romantic relationship in his life. If it happens with Buck, Eddie knows neither of them will come back from it.

    These days, he’s content with having Buck the way he does now. He may succumb to weakness, sometimes, like he just did in the kitchen, holding Buck like that, but Eddie’s willpower is the stuff of legend. He’s happy with his place in Buck’s life. He can play the part of codependent best friend, dad who stepped up, platonic soulmate.

    The main issue here, really, hindsight twenty-twenty and all, is that Eddie really misses being a husband.

    or: five times eddie, willing and knowing, acts like buck's husband, and one time he. well. you can guess where this is going.

    Summary

    "You're serious?" Eddie manages, voice quieter than he intends. "I don't- I wouldn't even know what to do, man. Just- hold it there?"

    He hears Buck's breath catch even through the crackly line. "Yeah. Or you can, like, roll your hips, grind against it. Or you can ... do little rotations with your wrist." A pause. A lengthy, pregnant pause that should indicate that Buck is about to say something insane that shatters Eddie's world, but Eddie's apparently naive enough to think this is still at least a semi-normal conversation until Buck says, "I could show you."

    Eddie's stomach does a somersault, heart suddenly thundering so loud he can barely hear himself think. "What?" He croaks out.

    "I could show you, it's - it's… not a big deal. It doesn't have to be." He's not sure which one of them Buck is trying to convince with that. "Just... a guy showing another guy how to get off."

    or: Eddie is struggling to keep up with his sex drive after starting T. If only someone else could lend a helping hand.

    Summary

    See, Eddie wasn’t some kind of traditionalist. He didn't care about old-fashioned gender roles. He didn't think omegas belonged stuck in a kitchen, and he didn't think alphas had to be the absolute bosses of everything. But he did believe in instincts. He believed in the natural order of things and what a body was meant to do.

    And looking at Buck, Eddie drew his own quiet conclusions: Buck was living in the wrong shell. He was miserable trying to force himself into the alpha mould, running himself ragged trying to live up to a biology that didn't fit his soul.

    Buck would be so much happier, so much better off, if he could just be an omega.

    In which, Eddie helped Buck become the omega he was meant to be.

    Summary

    Someone exclaims in the background, but Buck’s voice cuts through louder when he asks, “You… you want to borrow my…?”

    “Flashlight,” Eddie supplies with patient emphasis. It is not, strictly speaking, a leap of faith to assume Buck of all people would have one, but he did move recently, so— who knows what’s still lost in Packed Box Limbo. “Please tell me you have one I can use.”

    “I…” there’s a lengthy pause on the other end, Buck’s voice weak and tapering off at the end. “Y-Yeah, okay.”

    Or: Eddie just needs to borrow some tools. Fleshlight, flashlight, what’s the difference? The distinction has never been more illuminating.
