    Summary

    “They asked us to share something interesting about our families.”

    “And you—” Eddie stops, presses his lips together, then flicks a hand toward him. “You went with my imaginary engagement.”

    Christopher finally puts his phone away. “I didn’t say you were engaged.”

    “You told everyone I have a firefighter boyfriend.”

    “Yeah.”

    Eddie lifts a hand. “Which firefighter?”

    Christopher gives him a look.

    Eddie waits.

    The look continues.

    He lets his hand fall. “Christopher.”

    “Who do you think?”

    “I’m asking you.”

    Christopher shifts one crutch against the wall and gestures vaguely at Eddie, like the answer should be somewhere on his person. “Buck.”

    Or Chris tells his science club that Buck and Eddie are basically married

    Summary

    BUCK (WORK): SOS
    Eddie
    R u up
    Eddie
    It's an emergency

    Heart thundering, Eddie taps the call button and presses it to his ear. It rings, rings, rings and then the line goes dead, the call left unanswered. Eddie’s on his feet, keys in hand and forcing his feet into half-tied shoes before he even realises he’s stood up. He presses the call button again, but this time it ends on the first ring. Fuck, has someone taken Buck’s phone? Buck always picks up unless something is seriously wrong.

    EDDIE: Call me

    BUCK (WORK): No nonononon not that kind of emergency
    Can’t call. Theo asleep on my stomach. If he wakes up all hell will break loose.

    EDDIE: You’re ok?

    BUCK (WORK): Yes. no one is dying sorry sorry
    It’s a dad emergency

    or: Theo's birthday plans take a turn for the worse. Eddie's right there to get them back on track.

    Summary

    Eddie is working hard on figuring himself out, getting a life, and also reestablishing contact with Buck after worrying about them drifting apart and their friendship changing. Realizing that sometimes people misunderstand his relationship with Buck should not be the shock it is. Also, if Chris could stop launching verbal sneak attacks on him, he'd appreciate it.

    Meanwhile, Buck's learning to parent a toddler while not at all being insecure about something said by one Margaret Buckley. He's just studiously avoiding the word 'Parent' like the plague, and otherwise doing his damn best.

    or

    If Buck had a nickel for every time someone left him their kid in their will without his knowledge—well, he’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it’s happened twice now.

    Summary

    “Hey, Buck,” Eddie not-quite-slurs. It’s a close thing, though. The glass in his hand is his fourth— no, fifth, and wine always hits him so much harder.

    He’s bright-eyed and rosy-cheeked and loose-limbed on the couch, pressed so close to Buck he’s half in his lap.

    Buck’s got a steadying arm around his waist— couldn’t avoid the draw to touch even if he wanted to.

    “Hm?” Buck asks, feeling a little buzzy himself.

    “Buck,” Eddie repeats. “You’re bicyc—bisect— bisexual.”

    Buck laughs at Eddie’s stumble. Smiles bright, proud, and nods. “I am,” he agrees.

    “Have you ever—” Eddie’s winestained mouth purses; his brow furrows thoughtfully, “— have you ever thought about me?” He sways forward, widens his eyes purposefully, whispers, “Like, y’know.”

    Summary

    Eddiaz is listening to the slowburn friends to lovers playlist
    Eddiaz listened to the POV you’re falling in love with your best friend playlist
    Eddiaz listened to the sad gay yearning hours playlist
    Eddiaz listened to the he was my best friend and that was the worst part playlist

     

    Or, Eddie doesn't know how to make his listening history private. Buck doesn't know what to do with the words in front of his eyes. Chris cannot believe he has to deal with either of them.
