    Summary

    “Hey, so tell me this is none of my business, but…” Ravi started, from the seat next to Eddie in the back of the car.

    “It’s none of your business” Eddie muttered in response; his cheek pressed against the car window.

    “But…” Ravi insisted, earning a groan from Eddie.

    Ravi persisted, nonetheless.

    “Is there… is there something going on with you two? You and Buck, I mean” Ravi asked, tentatively.

    “What are you talking about?” Eddie queried, suddenly becoming much more alert.

    “I mean… you spent the whole night staring at him, you didn’t seem particularly interested in talking to anyone else, especially any of the women… is there… is there something going on there?” Ravi asked quietly.

    OR:

    Stage One: Denial
    Stage Two: Anger
    Stage Three: Bargaining
    Stage Four: Depression
    Stage Five: Acceptance

    Eddie’s repressed sexuality and true feelings for Buck are slowly unlocked through 5 passing encounters with various members of the extended 118 family. Each encounter represents a different stage of the grief process, as Eddie learns to grieve the version of himself he thought he knew and how to accept the version of himself he really was all along.

    Summary

    “He baby-trapped you,” the man said with a misplaced confidence that was almost impressive, “that’s fucked up, man.”

    Buck blinked. Then blinked again. Then, “Uh... no. No, that’s not—”

    “Shut it, Benji, that’s not what happened,” the other robber scowled, no longer trying to pretend he wasn’t eavesdropping. “They’re both dudes. A dude can’t baby-trap another dude.”

    “Of course they can. Equal rights and shit! That’s what the parades are for.”

    ---

    There's a hostage situation at the bank and Buck is forced to reevaluate his relationship with Eddie (and vice versa).

    Summary

    “You might want to see this…” He reached over with a piece of paper in his hand. Buck took it and turned his phone over to him in return. Eddie bit into his fist as he studied the picture. Buck looked down at the paper in his hand and turned it over to the right side. It was a copy of a marriage license for Mr. Evan Buckley-Diaz and Mr. Edmundo Buckley-Diaz.
    or
    Buck and Eddie, wake up married after a night of drinking with no memory of the night before.

    This is the story of how they decide to deal with this drunken decision while learning a lot about themselves and each other as they go from best friends to platonic husbands and, at last, to lovers.

    Summary

    It happened so naturally, like every other habit he created with Buck, but the realization set in to Eddie like a punch in the gut. He didn’t mean it, really, but falling in love with him was the easiest thing he had ever done, and that may be the reason why he didn’t see it evolving.
    But it did.
    And he noticed.
    And he doesn’t know what to do with it.

    OR
    Eddie realises he’s in love with Buck and he gets weird. I’m working on the drama the actors asked for!

    Summary

    “I wanted you to hear it from a friend,” Maddie says.

    I don’t want to hear it at all, Eddie thinks, curling into himself as if that can shield him from the words that she has to say. I just saw him, he thinks, remembering the way Buck smiled at him in his dream and wondering if that’s the only way he’ll get to see his smile again.

    (or, Maddie calls Eddie to tell him some news. He jumps to conclusions.)
