    Summary

    “She said she wasn’t worried about us breaking up.”

    Oh. Well. That was pretty definitively a thing that people said about partners who were together romantically.

    “Say something,” Buck instructed.

    “What?”

    “Anything,” Buck said, his voice wavering on the word. Which was—it was weird, right? Why was Buck so shaken by a throwaway comment?

    Or maybe the better question was why wasn’t Eddie? If either of them was going to get freaked out by the assumption that he was dating a man, it would make more sense for it to be Eddie, who was straight, and not Buck, who had, in fact, already dated men.

    “Aren’t you going to be late for your shift?”

    -----

    Buck and Eddie get shaken up by a comment from Theo’s social worker, and then by a magnitude 7 earthquake; it turns out, some disasters are better than others.

    Summary

    Eddie recaps this in his head a couple more times and he’s — jealous. Fuck, he’s jealous. That’s the word for it, the heat coiling deep in his gut, his whole body wound like a spring about to snap.

    Jealousy.

    Which is a bizarre emotion to feel about your best friend sleeping with someone. Jealousy implies ownership, implies wanting, implies — implies that 1) Eddie is not straight, and 2) he is possibly in love with his best friend and maybe possibly wants to suck said best friend’s dick about it.

    Alright — okay. Eddie feels like he needs to sit with that for a second, give it the space it deserves.

    Eddie wants to suck a dick attached to a person who is a man.

    Not just any dick, either. Buck’s dick. His best friend.

    Huh.

    He expected that to feel weirder. He expected sirens, maybe, or a crisis, or at minimum a dramatic internal monologue about his Catholic upbringing and the sanctity of heterosexuality.

    Instead, there’s nothing. The sirens are silent, the crisis doesn’t come, and Eddie wants to suck his best friend’s cock. Non-platonically.

    Or,
    Eddie moves back to LA, finds out Buck slept with Tommy, and reacts accordingly.

    Summary

    Buck flies to Texas without warning, a bouquet in one hand and too many feelings in the other. It’s just supposed to be a visit. A birthday. A breather. One dance, one cowboy hat, and everything changes.

    Summary

    “Buck, I didn’t ask you to be a groomsman at my wedding because I was kind of hoping you’d be the groom. I want you to be the one standing with me at the altar.”

    Shaking his head, Buck pushed himself out of his chair. “Hold on. What?”

    Eddie smiled, a soft little grin that made Buck’s knees feel weak.

    “I guess you get a two-for-one special today, Buckley,” Eddie murmured. “I’m gay and so in love with you that it, quite frankly, makes me feel crazy.”

    Buck froze. He’s not sure there was anything else he could’ve done at that moment. What the hell was happening right now?

    “I’m sorry,” Buck muttered, holding a hand up between them. He screwed his eyes shut. “Can you repeat that?”

     

    OR: Eddie comes in to work one day, planning his future wedding. It pretty much ruins Buck's life.

    Summary

    Buck should be furious. All their planning, all the hard work and buried emotions and lying to get where they are. Buck should be furious.

    He's sitting on a sound stage, lights beating down on him, sweat beading on his forehead, heart pounding in his chest as Eddie's voice echoes in his head over and over and over while the crowd is deathly silent, and god damn it, Buck should be furious.

    “Roger,” Ryan Seacrest says, pausing for dramatic effect as his eyes flicker between the duo in front of him, “For twenty five thousand dollars,” another pause that feels like it stretches into eternity, long enough for Buck to tear his gaze away from the couple to the man sitting to his left, to try and catch his eye and ultimately get nowhere. “When did Kristy realize she was in love?”

    It was love at first sight.

    That’d been Buck’s answer. They’d rehearsed it.

    But Eddie—

    --
    Or, Buck and Eddie aren't married. They go on The Newly Weds Game show, anyways.
