Summary
“Buck Buckley?” he asked, his accent deeper now, rougher around the edges like morning gravel. “What are you doin’ all the way out here?”
Buck had to mentally slap himself. Snap out of it, Buckley.
Words. Use your words.
“I was, uh… out for a run. Sir.”
The ‘sir’ slipped out automatically. Was he still a ‘sir’ without the uniform?
The man didn’t correct him, just nodded toward the bridge. “Don’t cross that thing. It’s more for show than use. Shouldn’t really even be standin’ on it. You got that?”or
Buck is in trouble again, only this time Bobby seems to think that a little vacation from home would do him good.
Bobby sends him to a kind of summer camp for adults, a camp whose existence Buck would have signed a petition against long ago if he had known about it.
Nevertheless, he has no choice but to go to Texas for three months. But when he meets his very attractive instructors on the first day, he wonders whether the whole time there might not be so bad after all.

Summary
Eddie huffs and throws his hands out. “I don’t know what you want from me, Buck. Do you want me to say I hate it? ’Cause I don’t!”
“I want you to tell me the truth.”
“I am telling you the truth! I’m sorry it’s not apparently whatever it is you want to hear, but I can’t actually read your mind, and I don’t know what it is you want me to say. I like the house. I liked the party. I don’t like being treated like a damn stranger.”
Eddie sees the moment Buck’s restraint finally snaps. “Then stop making yourself one!”
Or
Buck hosts a housewarming party, everyone keeps asking Eddie what he thinks of the new place, and he can't figure out why it feels like lying when he says he likes it.
