    Eddie’s chest tightened. “Can’t you just… give me space?” His voice rose, urgent now. “Give us space?”
    Buck let out a breath that sounded almost like a laugh. “Space is all I’ve ever given. To everyone.” His eyes were wet, but steady. “I wait. I hope. I tell myself it’ll be different this time, that I’ll finally be loved the way I love.” After a beat, he added “I thought it would be different with you.”
    “It is different,” Eddie said quickly. “You know I love you. I just …”
    Buck waited.
    The rest never came.
