    Summary

    “I, uh. Need to tell you something else I want to table for later.” Eddie steps back but keeps one hand on Buck’s waist, eye contact so intense Buck has to force himself not to look away. “After mass with Abuela we got talking about why I haven’t gone back to the church and she said - she told me I’ve been looking for love in the wrong place.”
    “Oh,” Buck whispers, breath caught in his throat. His traitorous heart feels like it’s about to beat right out of his chest.

    or

    The one where Buck steps into Eddie’s mess with him and finds out exactly where they both should have been looking.

    Summary

    “Why are you acting like this isn’t a big deal?” His voice was raised, but he wasn’t yelling. “Buck, you have been living out of a storage unit for weeks! You’re in pain, you’re hungry, and you’re— You’re homeless. You have no home."

    Eddie had such a way with words. You have no home. Very nice of him.

    “What do you want me to do, Eddie?” He put the measuring cup down with enough force that it bounced to the floor. “Breakdown and cry? Get on my knees and beg someone for a loan? I took what I could.”

    “No, you didn’t.” Eddie’s cursed index finger came up, pointing right at Buck’s chest. “Because you didn’t tell anyone! We would’ve helped you. I would’ve helped you.”

    “I don’t want anyone’s help,” Buck pressed. “I got myself into this situation, and I can get myself out. I always do.”

    Eddie held both his hands up, but they dropped as something dawned on him. Misery flooded his features. “You took over my lease.”

    The last thing Buck wanted to do was make Eddie feel guilty. His decisions put him where he was— Nobody else’s. Still, his head fell. “Yeah, Eddie. I did.”

    Or the one where Buck has no choice but to move into a storage unit, and Eddie finds out.

He tells himself he’s happy for his best friend, but every smile Eddie gives someone else twists like a knife. The more Eddie lets this man into his life, the more Buck feels himself on the outside looking in. Jealousy simmers until Buck makes one reckless choice that risks not only his friendship with Eddie, but the fragile balance of the family they’ve built together.
