Summary
Buck reached out to pat Eddie’s shoulder. Their eyes met again. Eddie’s heart was racing, and he wasn’t sure why, or why his stomach was in knots. Then the words fell from his mouth.
"I love you," Eddie blurted out.
Buck flushed red at the words.
"I love you, too," Buck said, putting his thumb to Eddie's pulse point.
Eddie felt the bile creeping up in the back of his throat. He couldn’t do it. Not then. Not at the doors of the airport, desolate as it may have been. He was supposed to be focused on getting Chris and getting him home, not on…. Buck, in whatever context that interaction had teetered on becoming.
"I- I'm so sorry."
The words fell out of Eddie's mouth before he could even think about it, and he grabbed the carry-on, turning out of Buck's grip and entering the busy terminal.
OR
Buck and Eddie accidentally confess their feelings as Eddie enters the airport to go to El Paso to retrieve Chris.

Summary
Eddie has spent most of his life trying to get people to forget where he's from. People make too many assumptions about the South and especially about Texas. He got rid of his accent when he joined the Army, but it still makes itself known when he's tired or upset.
Much in the same way, he still loves country music, even if he never talks about it.
But Buck brings it out of him.
Listening to country songs used to just remind him of Texas, and don't get him wrong, it still does. But now…. now he just always hears Buck in them, one way or another.
Or
The one where Buck and Eddie take a guys trip to Nashville and, being surrounded by country music and nostalgia, they're both forced to address their feelings.

Summary
Cas comes back. It's not exactly the reunion that Dean is expecting.
~~~
Dean stares at him, flummoxed. Cas quite literally poured his heart out to Dean, gave a truly sappy and distressingly romantic speech and everything, then proceeded to give his life so that Dean could live his. And he wants to act like he doesn't want to see Dean, be around him, touch him?
Actually, Dean's ninety-nine percent sure that Cas probably wants to fuck him, and while he has no clue how he feels about that, he's pretty goddamn sure that means Cas doesn't get to act like this and make it authentic.
It feels strangely real, though, as if Cas wants nothing more than to get as far away from him as possible. This is a blatant contradiction. Even someone as weird as Cas doesn't want to get away from the person they have the desire to fuck five ways to Sunday, that they're in love with. That's not how these things work, so Dean isn't buying it.

Summary
When Harry Styles was accepted into a post-grad degree, he knew he could no longer afford his flat, leaving him with three options:
1) Move back into student halls.
2) Become homeless.
3) Move in with his best (and only) friend, Niall, and three of Niall's other mates.
He went with the third option. But it was a close race.
Shame one of his roommates reminded him why he only has one friend.
If there is one thing Louis Tomlinson can't stand, it's pretentious tossers, having grown up around enough of them. If there is one thing he can't live without, it would be his friends. So he was proper thrilled to move in with his best mates and a couple of other lads.
That was until he discovered one of them was the archetype for a pretentious tosser.In the interest of seeing out the twelve-month lease without killing each other, they both try (debatable) to get along despite believing they are opposite in almost every conceivable way, each having the communication skills of a cucumber, and secrets that have no business be kept secret.
