Summary
“Bobby,” Frank says. “We could talk about him, if you’d like.”
He seriously considers it, for a moment— considers cracking open his jaw and letting the words pour forth, everything he never got to stay. Every sour, wretched, guilty thought that never left the confines of his mind, late at night when he would clutch at his chest and grit his teeth and stain his pillow with tears.
But the moment has passed. That was then, and this was now.
“No, thanks,” Eddie says quietly.
Frank lets out a little sigh, and then gives him another one of those half-smiles. “Okay,” he concedes, before picking up the pen in his lap. “Why don’t you tell me about the call to the parking garage?”
“Hospital,” Eddie says. “It was a hospital.”

Summary
“Eddie,” Buck breathes, laughing humorlessly, his voice wet and thick. “If we sat here and-- and went through the list of things I want…” his hands gesture aimlessly. “We’d-- be here all night.”
Eddie nods, catching Buck’s eyes again. “Maybe-- we start with mine, then.”
The space between them feels charged with static, like the second before the thunder finally rumbles.
-----
Eddie’s finally choosing to be better-- finally choosing joy. He just needs a push or two in the right direction, first.

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
Buck taps the base of his glass with one finger. “Okay, ground rule addendum.”
“This is a dangerous amount of structure for two people ordering potatoes,” Eddie says.
“Shut up,” Buck says, affectionate. “Addendum: if we hit a grief pocket, we don’t pretend it’s not there, but we also don’t drown in it. Say ‘grief pocket’ out loud and we change the angle.”
Eddie stares at him and then laughs, the kind that sneaks up and shakes something he didn’t know was a fist. “Grief pocket?”
“Like hot pockets,” Buck says, too fast, the joke covering something fragile. “But sad.”
“Do you hear yourself?”
“Constantly,” Buck says. “It’s a nightmare.”
OR Three years after Bobby's funeral, Eddie and Buck finally talk.

You’re completely right but seriously, wait a minuteBuck and Eddie find themselves in the middle of another betting pool. Once again, it goes about as well as you’d expect (but maybe just a little bit better).
