Summary
“But then, Ravi, he said the most insane shit to me the next morning,” Buck says, his scowl becoming more pronounced. “Like it actually really pissed me off.”
And — despite himself — Ravi’s intrigued. It’s not his fault, he just likes gossip. “What did he say?” Ravi asks, finally looking away from the hose.
Buck blinks at him for a moment and the nail picking intensifies. Ravi has a bad feeling about this.
“He thinks Eddie was his competition,” Buck finally says. “Like I’m in love with Eddie, or something. Isn’t that crazy?”
Oh. Oh, this is really bad actually.
Or: Ravi has to deal with Buck spiralling about being in love with Eddie. He’s mainly just worried if he’s going to survive his next shift.

Summary
Adriana doesn’t tell their parents that she’s going to LA. She doesn’t tell Eddie, either—or ask, for that matter.
She does ask Chris, and he thinks it’s a good idea—says as much, on the phone, and doesn’t say much else.
“Buck will probably be hovering,” is what Chris does volunteer.
It still surprises her when the man who opens the door is not Eddie. It’s—Captain America, is the thing that actually comes to mind—a man close to a foot taller than she is, if not more than that, with blond curls and broad shoulders, and he’s got a question in his very blue eyes that’s probably less friendly than the one he actually asks her.
“Uh,” he says. “Can I help you?”
—
Or: Adriana arrives in LA. Maddie has been here the whole time.

Summary
And it doesn’t feel like he’s lost Buck to Tommy. It’s just. It’s different.
Because sometimes Buck will show up at Eddie’s house still adjusting his belt, a little messy-haired and swollen-lipped, and Eddie will give him a questioning look before Buck shrugs and explains like it’s the most simple thing in the world, “Tommy dropped me off.”
Because occasionally Buck will say stuff like “Did you know Tommy can pick me up during sex? Like fully just hoist me up by my thighs and fuck me against the wall. He’s so fucking strong.”
Because it’s one thing to know your best friend is having sex. And it’s another thing to know exactly when and how your best friend gets fucked.
OR; buck dishes to eddie about his sex life which is torture for eddie's gay little brain. and eddie just has to act how best friends like them always do, because that's all that's allowed, right?
