Summary
“I can’t keep doing this, Eddie. Your sweatpants are in my dresser. You buy the right spices at the farmer’s market for my recipes. You wear the monstrosities I knit for you. You hold my kid’s hand when we’re crossing the street.”
Eddie’s lips are at the hinge of his jaw, like he’s testing the waters. It makes Buck brave enough to bring a numb hand up to one of the belt loops on Eddie’s darkwash jeans, thumbing there restlessly—sliding the tips of his fingers under the hem of his obsidian button-down. The skin-to-skin contact is all at once relieving.
“I think we’ve both known what we are for a while now,” Buck goads, hushed; tilting to arch his neck back against the wall, granting Eddie unlimited access, praying he takes the explicit invitation. “You’re my best friend. But this isn’t sustainable.”
or: Buck's sick of pretending.

Summary
It hadn’t made the right sound.
Buck had always thought it’d be a SHINK, or maybe a SQUELCH. Either cutting and sharp, or imprecise and sloppy. But no. He’d been wrong. Very, very wrong.
It had been quick. Abrupt. Something muffled and blunt that no amount of movies or video games or his own imagination could ever prepare him for. Not for that. Not for the real thing.
THWACK.
It hadn’t made the right sound.
---
Buck kills someone to save Eddie on a call. He’s fine until he’s not.

Summary
“Did you hear about the wolf attack on the full moon two years ago? That hiker found with his arm ripped to pieces,” Chimney says, an obvious ploy to cheer Buck up. It says a lot about Buck or a lot about Chimney that violent tragedy is meant to cheer Buck up. “Has anybody checked that guy to make sure he doesn’t go awoooo during his special time of the month?”
Eddie can already tell it’s not going to work, so he reaches across the gap between their seats to clasp a hand to Buck’s shoulder, his thumb close but not quite touching the vulnerable skin of his neck. If he presses hard enough, he can almost make himself feel the phantom ropes of raised skin from when Buck was left with a jagged lightning scar across his shoulder, matching yet way cooler than Eddie’s sad excuse for bullet dug and fang mauled shoulder scars. It has the desired effect, and he relaxes under the weight of Eddie’s hand.
“There are no wolves in Southern California,” Buck states, another bit of trivia. He just doesn’t know it’s a lie.
[Or Eddie has enough on his plate this summer – a newly empty nest, a terrible new captain, and a new mustache – without adding a new werewolf to the mix.]

Summary
She relishes the moment he comes inside her.
How hot and satisfying the feeling is.
They don’t talk usually.
Ben pulls out and thrusts his finger into her cunt, preventing anything from trickling out.
He doesn’t say anything.
But his actions say more than words ever could.

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.
