Summary
“Maddie, it’s been torture! I don’t know how much longer I can do this.”
Buck told her everything: the shirtlessness, the movie nights, the cold showers, the grocery runs, Eddie sleeping in the next room, the life they had crafted together—it all came tumbling out.
“This is all I’ve ever wanted, Maddie,” he breathed. “How was I supposed to know that the person I wanted it all with was Eddie?” Even he could hear how miserable, how pathetic, his voice had become. “And now it’s different, because I have it, but it’s not real.”
Those were the worst moments—when Buck slipped in too deep and forgot that this wasn’t really happening. That Eddie wasn’t living with him forever. That while Buck was living out his fantasy, Eddie was stuck in a waiting room until he could return to his real life—one that suddenly contained a lot more people and a lot less Buck within it.
or,
Eddie moves in with Buck while his sisters settle in LA, and suddenly Eddie has a social calendar, a community, and somewhere to dance every weekend. Being roommates with an Eddie in bloom shouldn’t be so bad, except for the fact that Buck isn’t sure where he fits in his new life.
Oh, and he’s in love with him.
