    Summary

    “C'mere," Buck says, sitting up to scoot closer to Eddie.

    "What are you doing?” Eddie asks, and Buck sighs.

    "You can just kiss me, get a taste of the lip balm, and tell me what flavour you think it is.”

    Eddie can’t believe his ears.

    "That is such a stupid way to win a bet, Buck."

    “Oh so you concede?"

    Eddie rolls his eyes, shaking his head before planting both hands on the sides of Buck's face and hauling him in to press their lips together.

    OR

    Buck and Eddie make a bet on whether or not Eddie can guess all of Buck's lip balm flavours, and in order for Eddie to get a taste, they have to kiss.

    Summary

    “Would you marry me?”

    Eddie stared at him.

    Buck stared back.

    The refrigerator hummed. The monitor hissed faintly. Eddie could hear his own pulse, which seemed dramatic and unhelpful.

    “What?” Eddie said.

    Buck looked down, then back up. “Not like. I mean, legally. For Theo. For the stability thing.”

    Eddie’s mouth had gone dry.

    Buck kept talking. He did that when he was nervous. Built a whole staircase of words and then tried to jump down it. “I know it sounds insane. I know. And I’m not asking because I’m freaking out. I mean, I am always a little bit freaking out, but that’s not why. I’m asking because if I had to pick someone to have legal standing with Theo, someone who already shows up and knows him and knows me, it would be you.”

    Eddie said nothing.

    Buck’s face tightened. “You can say no.”

    “I know.”

    And the one time that Buck got to defend his man as well.

    Summary

    There’s a billboard. Which is a normal thing to find on the side of the interstate. Advertisements for car dealerships and injury lawyers and anything you could ever dream of. This, though… this is beyond his wildest dreams.

    This billboard has a picture of a man, about Eddie’s age, blond curly hair and crystal blue eyes.

    The man on the billboard is—

    He is—

    The billboard text swims into focus slowly, as if Eddie is surfacing from deep water.

    THIS IS BUCK.
    HE’S 33, SINGLE, AND A FIREFIGHTER.
    HE’S A GREAT COOK IF YOU DON’T MIND
    BREAKFAST FOOD FOR EVERY MEAL.
    I’M BEGGING SOMEONE TO DATE HIM SO
    HE STOPS THIRD-WHEELING MY MARRIAGE.

    And then, underneath, in smaller letters:

    ALL GENDERS WELCOME TO APPLY.
    I'M DESPERATE AND HE'S HOPELESS.

    PLEASE CONTACT MADDIE AT:
    [email protected]

    Summary

    "Is it your leg?" Eddie whispers as he gives Buck's shoulder blade a gentle squeeze. Buck nods his head without even lifting his face from the pillow and whimpers quietly.

    Eddie sits on the edge of the couch, wraps his fingers around Buck's leg and scoots closer so he can rest Buck's leg on his lap.

    "Hey." Eddie says when Buck tries to get his leg free from Eddie's touch. "Let me see."

    *

    Buck has a leg cramp. Eddie helps him as he can.
