Summary
“ACHOO!” Eddie sneezes.
Christopher jumps, and, honestly, so does Eddie. It’s a hostile sneeze. Animalistic. It shakes him to his core.
“Bless you!” A kind voice calls from the aether. Christopher blinks up at him, confused. Eddie shrugs.
“…thank you!” He calls back.
Or, Eddie cannot stop sneezing. The walls of his new complex must be really thin, because someone keeps saying "bless you".

Summary
“It’s interesting,” he continues, keeping his voice mild. “You’ve been either not looking at me at all, or looking at me like—”
This grabs Buck’s attention. He stops in his tracks, and a fork clatters into the cutlery tray as he stiffens, and darts another glance. This one lingers for a fraction of a second longer before it cuts away, and then flies back, and Eddie meets it with a resolute calm.
“Like what?” Buck asks, whisper-delicate as a dragonfly’s wings. His eyes widen, impossibly blue and nervously panicked. His fingers curl into his palms. He swallows again.
Eddie says, “Like you’re in love with me.”
(Or, Eddie pays attention.)

Summary
Eddie finally lets himself want.
-----
“I think I might ask him out.”
Eddie breathes in.
“He gave me his number, after all.”
Eddie breathes out.
Buck smiles. “But you don’t care about that. You’d rather just box it all up. Pretend it’s not there, and not even bother to say what you’re really thinking. You know, you get after me for not asking, and you’re right, I need to do that more, and I’m going to work on it. I am. But Eddie, you—you’re just as bad with not talking.”
“Buck,” Eddie says, the name out of his mouth before he knows it’s there. He doesn’t know what he’s saying with it. Do you want me? I want you. Please want me, too. All of the above and more.

Summary
Eddie opens his mouth. Closes it. Finally, he settles on, “You told your parents you’re married? To a man?”
Chimney and Hen both glance at him with twin looks that clearly mean he’s on his own with telling the rest of the story. Which—they had no problem teasing and joking about it three seconds ago, but now that Buck has to really get to the heart of the issue, they’re leaving it to him?
Go fucking figure.
“I told my parents,” Buck says, rubbing at the bridge of his nose with closed eyes, “that I’m married to you.”
or, buck and eddie go to hershey for buck's high school reunion. the only problem? everyone thinks that they're married.

“I love you,” he says, and kisses Eddie’s mouth, his nose, both his cheeks. “I love Christopher, and I love the life we’ve built, and maybe we’ll lie about how this proposal happened when anyone asks,” and Eddie laughs, “but I love you. I love you, and I want to marry you, so if you’ll do me the fucking honor—”
“Yes,” Eddie says. “Yes. Yeah, you fucking lunatic. Of course I’ll marry you.”

Summary
“It’s yours,” Eddie had finally said, looking down at it for a moment before handing the phone to him. “I… There’s a lot of stuff you might want to go through on there.”
Buck frowned, confused, but when he looked down at the screen, he saw it.
[250 missed calls]
[635 unread messages]“Wha–”
“A lot of people used it as a… A way to communicate with you while you were gone.”
Eddie’s voice was tense. Buck couldn’t stop staring, reading the top message from Eddie over and over again, the only one that he could see. It didn’t make sense.
“You don’t have to go through it all but… We missed you, ba– Buck.” Buck slowly looked up from his phone, and there was that look again. Eddie had reached out, the same way he had when Buck came back, fingers brushing across his face gently. Buck wanted to melt into it. He did, later, but in that moment, he had to keep himself together.
“I want to.”
“Okay,” Eddie’s hand had dropped. Buck’s skin felt cold. “Come get me when you’re done.”
OR
Buck gets blipped. Eddie's left behind. A love story told through what Eddie did in his absence.

[9:27pm] I’m a little afraid I’m never going to see anything as beautiful as you ever again
[11:52pm] I’m even more afraid that I’m in love with you[10:05pm] He had blonde curly hair and blue eyes but he sounded nothing like you
There’s a baptism in his words, in his gaze.
