Summary
It starts as a game. Just a fun little thing they do during shifts to keep themselves entertained.
The idea comes from Chimney.
“We should write secret admirer letters,” he says one afternoon, grinning like he’s just solved world peace.
“They don’t even have to be actual admirer letters. Write something funny. Tell someone you appreciate them. Confess your undying love. Whatever.”
Confess your undying love, huh.
Not gonna lie, Eddie is kind of interested in this one.

Or, Eddie wants to write a love letter to Buck.

Summary
“Oh , come on you guys,” Buck reasons with the majority of the class who are still looking at him like he’s crazy, “A five question quiz on rocks and minerals can't be that bad. Aren’t some of you in AP US history? Now that's a groan worthy quiz.”
He gets a few chuckles for that. Win number two. Towards the middle of the room Charlie raises her hand.
"I have a proposal," she says and Buck's confidence wavers. "Hear me out."
Leaning one hip against the edge of his desk, Buck closes his eyes for a second and breathes deeply. With a wave of his hand, he tells her to go on.
"How about for every question we get right on here," she taps the half sheet of paper in front of her, "you let us ask you a question!"
He should’ve known better. These specific 14 year old's are going to be the death of him, aren’t they.
OR
Buck is a science teacher. Eddie is a gym teacher. Their students have a lot of questions.

Summary
"What— what do you see?"
"I see," Eddie says, measured, careful, "someone who looks like he wanted somebody to see him like that."
Buck's whole body goes hot.
"And I'm trying to decide," Eddie continues, slower now, his breath heavier, "whether I'm allowed to be that somebody."
The hand on Buck's thigh has migrated upward. He notices it three seconds after it happens, his palm now resting flat against his own stomach where his shirt has rucked up, fingers splayed across the skin. The touch of his own hand on his own body in this context is sending a current up his spine that he is, evidently, helpless to stop.
"Eddie." Buck's voice cracks. "Are you— are you jerking off to my photo?"
The pause is brief but loaded, and when Eddie answers it’s barely recognizable, every word landing somewhere in the south of Buck's body with a measurable physical impact.
"You send me a picture like that, Buck. What am I supposed to do?"

Summary
“He—He had a nightmare,” Buck says. Eddie can tell he’s tugging at his hair. “He was asleep for barely an hour, and now he won’t stop crying. The thunder scares him.”
Before Eddie can ever answer, Theo’s cries interrupt him. His voice wails out a sad, “EDDIE!”
Eddie pauses. “Did he just say my name?”
On the other line, Buck’s breath hitches. Eddie pulls the comforter off himself, already springing into action to find his shoes and car keys.
Still, Buck doesn’t reply. Theo’s sobs are even more earsplitting through the phone. “I want EDDIE!”
“He’s—” Buck sucks in a breath. “He’s asking for you.”
OR: Theo can’t sleep because of the storm. Buck calls Eddie and Christopher for their help.

Summary
Buck was Buck. Buck was supportive. Buck was caring. Buck was... Buck was an absolute fucking asshole and Eddie felt like his heart had been ripped out and stomped on.
Eddie let out a deep sigh as he entered the bar, the muggy warmth replacing the biting cold of the night. He hadn't planned on ending up at a bar, hadn't planned on being alone either but here he was.
His home, the place that had always felt safe, the place that held so many good memories, was now the last place he wanted to be. Eddie didn't want to go home ever again. Not after his safe space had been shattered, leaving him walking around with a hole in his heart.
Eddie hadn't planned to confess his feelings for his best friends at the same time as coming out. He'd had a whole other plan for that and it hadn't involved blurting it out in his kitchen like word vomit.
_______
Eddie comes out to Buck and confesses his love at the same time. Buck handles it poorly
