    Summary

    Eddie loves Buck. No not like- well, yeah. Exactly like that. Not that he’s told him that. No in so many words. So for now, Eddie will love him in silence. Which as of recently, means trying all of Buck’s creations, even if that means sacrificing his waistline.

    or

    Buck and Eddie are roommates, which means that Eddie is Buck's official taste tester....somehow this leads to them getting together

    Summary

    He’d shoved the envelope into his pocket, fingers tightening around it like holding it too carefully might make it more real. Around him, everyone else slipped out quietly, one by one, each of them clearly ready or at least willing to face whatever Bobby had left behind for them.

    But Eddie stayed seated, and he was the last to leave.

    Not because he needed more time, but because he already knew he didn’t want to read it.

    He couldn’t read it.

    Or; After Bobby’s death, everyone at the 118 receives a letter he wrote before he passed. Eddie gets his and overwhelmed by guilt and grief, he doesn’t open it right away. Instead, he spirals, goes out, drinks too much, hooks up with a guy, and loses the letter.

    Summary

    There is a box, in Eddie’s mind.
    There is a box, and in it he places all the things he can’t have: pink nail polish, and rainbow hues, and storm grey eyes. He fills it until it is full to bursting and he clicks it shut.
    He locks his box and he throws away the key.
    Years later, there will be a boy, and his clever fingers will reach into his skull, untangle the knot of fear and hate and longing and repression that resides within his brain, and unlock the lid.
    For now, the box will be forgotten.

    Or, Eddie is lost, and lost, and found again.
