    Summary

    Naively, he thinks he might be safe. But right there, smack bang in the middle of the classroom display, is Christopher’s story. Proudly titled: When My Dads Got Married.

    “Oh dear god,” Eddie whispers beside him.

    Buck’s soul leaves his body.

     

    Or, Buck joins his good friend Eddie at his son's Parents' Night. Platonically. With his good pal, Eddie.

    Summary

    “We should make it a road trip, Eddie! We never hang out anymore, Eddie! It’ll be so fun, Eddie!” Eddie mimics, his voice trailing as he disappears into the tiny bathroom connected to their Budget Queen motel room.

    “We’re not stranded,” Buck scoffs. “And you weren’t saying that when you were stuffing your face with the tamales that I found, or the cherry pie that I read about.”

     

    Or, there was only one bed. And a lot of bickering.

    Summary

    “Holy shit, Eddie. You weren’t kidding. You have a hot husband,” is the first thing Greta says 30 seconds into Eddie pretending he’s not freaking the fuck out about pretending Buck is his husband at his barber’s lesbian wedding.

    He kind of feels like he’s going to puke. This was a bad idea. This was a terrible idea.

     

    Or, a classic case of fake dating at a wedding.

    Summary

    Theo hands Buck three dandelions. 

    "Oh, thank you Theo. I love them." 

    Theo shakes his head. "They're not for you. They're for you to give to Eddie." He points at Eddie, standing frozen with two stacks of toilet paper in his arms. "Eddie likes flowers." 

    "He does?" Buck asks, looking at Eddie curiously. 

    Eddie looks away, cheeks colouring. The two pendants under his shirt burn against his skin.

    Theo nods enthusiastically. "He likes flowers and he likes you, so you should give him flowers Buck." 

    "Yeah Buck," Chris singsongs. "You should give him ~flowers~."

    or

    Buck adopts Theo. Eddie's Saint Christopher pendant suddenly has a companion.

    Summary

    The second the words leave his mouth, Eddie wishes he could claw them back in. Reach out into the space between them—that chasm of distance that’s been building over the last several weeks. They’re twenty feet apart in literal terms, Buck’s sitting at the table and Eddie’s at the top of the stairs, clutching his hands in front of himself, but the entire world is separating them because—

    Because.

    Fuck.

    He takes a step towards him, the rest of the firehouse falling silent as they all turn to look at him. That easy smile that was on Buck’s lips, that soft hope that lined his statement fading into obscurity as Eddie’s words ring vibrant and angry over it all.

    Buck blinks, tilting his head like he doesn’t quite understand, and how could he? How could he understand? He never fucking gets it.

    --

    Or Buck wants to start a family, but he already has one.
