    Summary

    “I can come back another time, if you want.”

    Tommy looks Buck up and down. Buck can only imagine how he looks: hair salty and wild, wrinkled beach clothes. Fuck, he’s even still in his swim trunks.

    It doesn’t matter. Tommy is here. Buck has waited so long for Tommy to come back into his life, and now he’s standing on Buck’s front step, beautiful in the fading sunlight. He’s not letting Tommy get away again. Not until they’ve talked this out.

    “No,” he repeats. “Please come in.”

    He gives Tommy his best serious look. In return, Tommy gives Buck his best skeptical look as he walks through the door.

    Buck shuts the door and turns around to face Tommy. Despite the toddler mess, despite his disheveled state, despite everything, he’s so glad that Tommy is here. The air in the room seems to warm up, the quiet settling into serenity.

    Or:
    Tommy comes over to talk while Theo is asleep.
