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
He takes Buck's hand, like he has the right, and sees the evidence of Buck's devotion, a love letter written in blood, etched into every fingertip in a fit of desperation, and Eddie is overwhelmed with his love.
The dam that broke as he fought for air no longer exists, and he doesn't know how to exist without shouting wordlessly about his love for Buck with every fiber of his being, with every word he says, every touch, every look, every breath.
He knows he should be worried, he should try to hide it better, because he cannot risk it, cannot risk destroying what they have, but he is too tired, too woozy, too hurt.
So he holds Buck’s hand, and looks into his eyes, that hold all the light of his existence. It feels like standing in the light of his personal sun, wrapped in its warmth.

Summary
There’s a near constant itch in his fingertips, a desperation clawing at his skin to get a hold of the pills and to finally make it stop. To put an end to the voices in his head, the ones screaming at him every time he so much as breathes.
For the first time in his life, Buck finally felt like he’d come to terms with who he was as a person. He was a baker, an uncle, and on his way to becoming a frequent knitter. He was happy.
But he’s lost all of it, and he no longer recognizes the person he sees in the mirror.
Buck hates the new version of himself.

What if Eddie’s phone hadn’t been ringing and the tones didn’t go off? What if Buck told Eddie about his withdrawals first?
