Summary
"Should we — should we tell Bobby?" Buck keeps his eyes straight ahead as he pushes their grocery cart through the produce section.
"Tell Bobby what?" Eddie asks distractedly as he darts off to grab the particular brand of cheddar that Chris likes, dumping it in the cart.
"About — you know. Our change in status. Or, maybe it goes straight to HR? I think we tell Bobby first, though."
Eddie puts his hand on the cart handle and stops it rolling. "Our change in status," he says slowly.
He reaches over and presses a fingertip to the spot where Buck's neck joins with his shoulder. He's touching Buck's St. Christopher medal necklace chain, Buck realizes, which is kind of a weird thing to do out of the blue, in the middle of the produce section, but then Eddie pulls back and turns away, starts searching through the avocados.
"I don't think we have to report anything to HR," he says in a completely normal and casual tone of voice. "It's not like we got married."
Buck is so happy to have Chris and Eddie back in his life, and so confused about what it all means.
