Summary
The man rolled his body again, but this time it wasn’t only his chest; it was like he was trying to get as close to Eddie as possible before he spun him again. This was different from any dance lesson that Buck had ever seen, and then the man caught Eddie and dipped him.
A breathless, surprised laugh escaped Eddie’s lips, and when the man brought him back up, their noses brushed, each breath fanning across the other’s face. Both of the man’s hands settled on Eddie again—not on his shoulders, not on his back, but low on his hips, his fingers curling over the beginning of that curve.
This was not a dance lesson.
or,
Eddie moves in with Buck while his sisters settle in LA, and suddenly he's coming home from weekly dance nights flushed, sweaty, and happier than Buck has ever seen him.Buck is thrilled for him. Really. The fact that he's secretly in love with Eddie is nobody's problem but his own.
Then Eddie invites him to the club, and Buck discovers there's something worse than being left out of Eddie's new life: having a front-row seat.

Summary
Chimney sat down across from them and leaned forward, elbows on knees. "Theo. Buddy. What's Eddie do when Buck says something dumb?"
"Chim,” Eddie groaned.
Theo thought about it. Theo took it seriously; he tipped his head back and squinted, doing real cognitive labor, and then he turned to the room at large, dropped his chin, let his shoulders fall about an inch, and said, with a long-suffering exhale that came all the way up from his tiny diaphragm:
"Buck."
The loft went insane.
It was perfect. That was the horrifying part. It wasn't a kid saying a name. It had the whole shape of it: the little drop at the end, the fondness sanded down into exhaustion so nobody would notice the fondness. Eddie had been saying that man's name that exact way since 2019 and had never once heard it from the outside, and now it was coming out of a preschooler in a costume, in front of everyone he worked with.
Or, Theo copies Eddie

Summary
“Holy shit, Eddie. You weren’t kidding. You have a hot husband,” is the first thing Greta says 30 seconds into Eddie pretending he’s not freaking the fuck out about pretending Buck is his husband at his barber’s lesbian wedding.
He kind of feels like he’s going to puke. This was a bad idea. This was a terrible idea.
Or, a classic case of fake dating at a wedding.

Summary
Footsteps approach him and he tenses.
"Buck."
He doesn't have to turn around to know who it is. Eddie's voice is much deeper than it was when they were teenagers but Buck can recognize it anywhere.
"Edmundo," Buck replies curtly, briefly glancing at him as he sidles up next to him. Eddie's frustrated sigh in response makes his lip twitch up on one side in satisfaction.
"Just wanted to see if this," Eddie gestures between them. "Was going to be a problem."
"Nope," Buck pops the 'p' in the word a bit louder than necessary. "No problem here, man."
"Good," Eddie responds, folding his arms. "No problem here either."
They are both liars it seems.
or the one where buck and eddie meet at summer camp as teenagers and meet again as camp counselors years later but is the past really just the past?

Summary
“She said she wasn’t worried about us breaking up.”
Oh. Well. That was pretty definitively a thing that people said about partners who were together romantically.
“Say something,” Buck instructed.
“What?”
“Anything,” Buck said, his voice wavering on the word. Which was—it was weird, right? Why was Buck so shaken by a throwaway comment?
Or maybe the better question was why wasn’t Eddie? If either of them was going to get freaked out by the assumption that he was dating a man, it would make more sense for it to be Eddie, who was straight, and not Buck, who had, in fact, already dated men.
“Aren’t you going to be late for your shift?”
-----
Buck and Eddie get shaken up by a comment from Theo’s social worker, and then by a magnitude 7 earthquake; it turns out, some disasters are better than others.
