    Summary

    Missing Chris is less of an emotion these days and more of a physical entity. He’s sure everyone can see that he’s slowly hollowing himself out, that he can’t do much of anything else.

    But when Jee laughs at him trying to get his tongue to touch his nose, and Mara loops one of her arms through his to keep him from tossing the rest of his cup in the garbage, Eddie feels solid again.

    Maybe he likes yellow birthday cake ice cream after all.

     

    (or, gerrard messes with the team's schedules and eddie 'i just drove my son to flee the state' diaz is the only option to watch mara and jee-yun after school on tuesdays, which, shouldn't be a problem at all, right?)

    Summary

    The first time it happens, it’s Tommy’s fault. Maybe that’s unfair, all things considered, but Eddie certainly isn’t going to blame Buck for it. And Eddie’s single, so it can’t be his fault. But Tommy sent Buck a dick pic while Buck was at Eddie’s house, so Eddie feels justified in blaming Tommy for everything that happened after.

    ***

    Or, five times Buck cheats on Tommy with Eddie, and one time he doesn't.

    Summary

    “God I’m so gay,” Eddie says completely out of nowhere, followed by a sigh. “And if I wasn’t already aware, today would have been extremely eye-opening.”

    Maddie turns to look at him, with an amused look on her face.

    “So we’re talking about it then?”

    “Talking about what?” Eddie responds nonchalantly. “My sexuality? You already knew about that from wine night.”

    “Your feelings for my brother,” Maddie clarifies, and Eddie flushes.

    (Eddie agrees to be Buck's fake patient for his mandatory Rescue Training. Eddie underestimates how attractive he's going to find Buck while he's 'rescuing' him.)

    Summary

    “Bless your heart, you really are new to this. Good for y’all, though. I’m glad this ship is… accepting.”

    Eddie straightens in his seat. “What does that mean?”

    All four wince as a young man taps the microphone onstage.

    “Testing, testing,” he jokes. “Welcome to the Cruisin’ Couples Trivia Tournament!”

    The patrons around them cheer. Eddie digs his nails into Buck’s skin harsh enough to make him wince.

    “Oh,” he breathes. “This is for couples.”

    or: After getting dumped, Buck is left with two tickets to a weeklong cruise. Eddie steps in to support a friend in need, but complications arise when his friend becomes his fake husband. All's fair in love, war, and trivia.
