    Summary

    Eddie’s terrified. The weight lodged in his chest has shifted to complete and utter panic. His skin is hot. His eyes are burning. There was once a time when he’d say, I do not panic, but even that was a lie. Eddie panics a lot, actually. But he’s been taught how to manage it, how to make himself Jello, how to bring himself back to reality.

    But this reality is what’s panic-inducing, and he can’t Jello himself out of this one.

    Because he’s not scared for himself. Eddie’s killed men before. More than four at a time. Eddie’s, objectively, been in worse situations than this. Eddie’s been shot and stabbed and buried.

    But he’s never been in a situation like this, with a four-year-old who means the world to him, a four-year-old who’s Buck’s son.

    Or - Eddie takes Theo to the mall. The trip does NOT go as planned, when robbers infiltrate and they’re forced into a hostage situation.

    Summary

    After a brutal fight pushes Eddie to the edge of walking away, Buck finally calls out the fear hiding underneath all of Eddie’s walls: loving someone means losing them.

    As old wounds and unspoken feelings crack open in the middle of a stormy night, Buck and Eddie are forced to confront the truth about what they are to each other—and whether they can survive it.

    Summary

    “Why are you the way you are?” he asks and Buck freezes in his movements. Eddie sounds serious — like he’s genuinely upset. With Buck?

    “What, um,” Buck tries, clearing his throat awkwardly, a sinking feeling growing in his gut. “What do you mean?”

    “‘s fucking annoying,” Eddie slurs, rolling his eyes again and leaning back to look at the ceiling as if it’s something interesting. “”’nd exhausting.”

    Buck’s heart drops, remembering Eddie’s words in the grocery store all those years ago. Eddie just yawns and closes his eyes with a sigh.

    “D’you know how exhausting it is to be around you?”

    Or: Eddie is annoyed with Buck for being so very kissable but his drunk self isn't the best at phrasing things.

    Summary

    Tex: Can you overshare something to make this less embarrassing?

    Firehose : Absolutely. I’m telling people I downloaded this app to get over my ex but really I realized I have feelings for my straight best friend

     

    Or, Eddie downloads a gay dating app and hits it off with a suspiciously familiar mystery man (it's Buck).
