Summary
“Eddie, you’ve got a message,” Hen calls out casually.
Eddie turns around with a mouthful of cookie, a quizzical lift of his eyebrow and a quick wave of his phone. “That’s not me, my phone’s right here.”
Hen stops mid-page-turn and lets her gaze wander back to the phone on the coffee table even though the screen must’ve long gone dark again. “Then why was I just looking at a picture of your kid?”
Buck freezes, dough sticking to his hands.
Oh.
Oh no.
---
or: Buck didn't think twice when he set a photo of Christopher as his lockscreen. Eddie, however, spirals a little when he finds out.

Summary
“Whose dads did Theo catch smooching?” Chimney slides into the chair across from them, an easy smile stretching across his face.
Buck chooses that exact moment to appear at the top of the loft stairs, freezing as soon as Chim’s words leave his mouth.
Chimney glances around the group, clearly waiting for a continuation of the station gossip. His grin fades as he slowly takes in the silence, gears turning as he clocks the red staining Eddie’s cheeks and the way Buck’s jaw unhinges itself and hangs slack.
“Oh my fucking god.” He deadpans. “Theo caught you two –”
“No, we weren’t –” Eddie tries, desperately throwing himself in front of the avalanche of lies that is quickly picking up speed and swallowing up everyone in its path.
“Eddie!” Buck interrupts, so shrill and sharp that everyone in the vicinity freezes and stares. “Can I talk to you over here, please?”
Theo mishears Eddie accusing Buck of "mooching" and accidentally sets fire to Eddie's plan to 1) come out and 2) tell Buck that he's in love with him. Miscommunication and a brief fake-dating stint ensue.

Summary
Finally, Eddie spoke. His voice was barely audible. “You shouldn’t have shown me this.”
Buck shifted. “Why not?”
“Because it’s 2 am on a school night, and now I need to go wake my kid up to tell him how amazing he is and cry into his pajama shirt.”
He was already moving, rolling towards the edge of the bed, but Buck was quick to pull him back. They wrestled half-heartedly; but the effort was hardly real on his opponent’s part and eventually Buck prevailed. Eddie slumped back, going limp in his arms.
Buck only pulled him closer, pressing his lips to the warm skin of his torso. “He knows,” he whispered into his skin.
Or;
Buck and Eddie, still figuring out what they are, want to keep their brand new relationship under wraps. Their boys don't quite get the same memo.

Summary
“Theo? Can you tell me what’s wrong?”
“He didn’t come home.” He stutters his way through the sentence, like it’s the scariest thing he’s ever said. Like he’s forcing himself to say it but doesn’t understand why it’s so scary, just that it is. Josh frowns at the screen in response. Tentatively types, possibly abandoned.
Jesus. What the hell is wrong with people these days?
“Who didn’t come home, Theo? Your dad?”
Theo, 5. Child in distress. Possibly abandoned.
The radio crackles with acknowledgment as Theo exhales shakily. It’s wet, like he’s building up all the courage his little body has to offer. “My Buck.”
--
Or, Theo calls 9-1-1 because Buck doesn't come home after he gets hurt on a shift.
