Summary
It’s 8:38 pm in California and Bobby Nash is dead. Bobby Nash, the man who was Evan’s surrogate father. Tommy’s realized since the break up that he didn’t fully understand Evan, but he did know some of him, at least. He’s always known this. He’s always know the way Evan looked up to Bobby, admired him, and went to him for advice. He knows the specific way that Evan doesn’t talk to his biological father, at least not more than a few passing words under the guise of niceties.
Tommy watches Evan break down on the security camera and knows what he has to do next. He’ll give himself two more minutes and then he’ll do it. Two minutes to pretend that he’s the one Evan needs, that he can be the one who gets him through this. But he’s not, and he can’t.
At 9:40 pm in El Paso, Eddie’s phone rings.
~~~~~Or, Tommy calls Eddie and tells him to get his ass to LA. Everything changes. (Was originally going to be Buddie but I started redeeming Tommy for plot reasons and I think it’s a why choose now. Idk. I’ll update tags as appropriate)
