Summary
“It’s not what it looks like.”
And oh does Eddie hate himself at this particular moment in time, because the look on Buck’s face tells him that not a word he’s just said is believable.
“So, you’re not reading Hotshots fanfiction about Jones railing Sanchez in explicit detail in the middle of your kitchen in broad daylight?” Buck asks, looking highly amused. “Because that’s exactly what this looks like.”
Yes.
Well.
“That’s—that’s just—” Eddie stumbles over his words, before collecting himself. “You can’t possibly know that just from a two second look at the screen.”

(Buck catches Eddie reading Hotshots fanfiction on his tablet.)

Summary
“Just don’t expect me to walk you down the aisle,” Phillip laughed, looking around like he expected the rest to agree.
And when no one did, glancing at one another in shock, confusion, and hurt on his behalf... it’d been the last straw:
“I wouldn’t ask you to,” Buck said, as if discussing something as inconsequential as the weather, “I’d ask Bobby.”
---
or Buck experiences the unconditional love of a parent for the first time in his life at a five year-old's birthday party.

Summary
“It’s fine, don’t worry about it,” Eddie dismisses, and Karen’s forehead crumples. “Don’t be like that,” Eddie reaches out to pat her hand, and Karen twists her fingers to latch onto his wrist. She doesn’t catch it at first, but after a moment she notices his heartbeat is going rabid, pulse racing. “It’s not a big deal. I’ll be – fine. It’ll pass.”
Karen blinks as Eddie pulls away suddenly. “What will pass?”
Eddie rubs at his cheek, hands scratching at his moustache for a brief moment as his chest expands on an inhale. He’s staring sort of hazily into the distance, eyes glassy, and he speaks quietly, almost too quiet for Karen to hear.
“That I’m in love with Buck,” Eddie says unthinkingly, so softly and warmly that Karen feels as if she’s intruding on a private moment, and then Eddie’s gaze sharpens he sits up so quickly his wine sloshes over his hand. “Oh fuck,” he wheezes, and turns to look at Karen with panic loud and clear in his eyes as he realizes what he said.
***
Or, five times Karen tries to use wine nights to get Eddie and Buck together, and the one time she didn't need to.
