Summary
Motes of light eddy and flow through the air, bigger orbs of light bouncing off each other and Maddie gently as she turns and turns in stunned silence. When she finally looks at him, tears track her cheeks, carving through the golden dust that now flecks her skin.His house has turned into a garden.
Roots tangle over the floor in tripping hazards, creeping and winding up walls and around furniture legs. Moss, mushrooms, and flowers carpet surfaces. Branches and vines reach across the room to embrace and curl around each other.
The air is thick with the perfume of blooms and ripened fruit.
His bed is mostly untouched but for the flowers and greenery beneath his cheek, where tears make a steady stream down his face.
"Buck," she chokes out, dashing the tears from her own cheeks, smearing the golden pollen across her face as she hurries over to him. She falls to her knees beside him and cups his cheeks, heedless of the delicate vines creeping over her fingers as she runs her thumbs under his eyes to wipe away tears. "What happened?" she asks.

Summary
Six-ish weeks ago, he’d fallen into bed with Buck after one of the scariest days of both of their lives; after Buck had made sure that Eddie didn’t lose his baby.
And now—
Now, because of Eddie, they both might lose another one.
— one night together, a miscommunication of epic proportions, and six weeks apart before their lives change forever.

Summary
There is something so glaringly not Buck about the scene in front of him. That knot of dread becomes a boulder, plunging into Eddie’s gut and nearly knocking the wind out of him.
“Hey, Chris, wait here a second, would you?” Eddie’s already crossing the threshold.
“But, it’s just Buck-”
“Chris,” Eddie turns around, scrambling to collect the worries that are slipping through his internal defenses like a sieve. He meets Christopher’s gaze, his son no longer a boy but a young man. He doesn’t ask or demand. He begs. “Please. Please just wait.”
It’s probably fine. All a misunderstanding. Eddie is jumping to conclusions. Even at his worst, Buck would never—but if Eddie’s worries are well-founded, he would never forgive himself for letting Chris see what’s inside that house.

Or, Eddie uses his key to Buck's house and finds himself in a situation that is all too familiar, only this time he's on the other side of the door. Meanwhile Buck struggles to cope with eight years of love and loss, oh, and that whole kidnapping thing.Bookmarked by Lemoncarpet

Summary
Exhausting. He traced each letter over and over, worrying at the skin until he could sense them individually without laying a finger on them.
