Summary
“Yeah,” Chim said. “Yeah, Maddie’ll be glad to see you. Where’ve you been lately?”
“Yeah,” Eddie said. His tone was pointed. “Been wondering that myself.”
“Oh,” Buck said. “You know.”
“I don’t,” Eddie said. “Actually.”
“At my new place, mostly,” Buck said. Eddie raised his eyebrows.

Summary
“Dad,” Chris called, and when there was no response he pushed it open. “Dad, you have to drive me to—”
His dad was there, still asleep, laying with most of his face smushed in his pillow and looking dead to the world. Also there, half-sitting up and tugging the covers up to his neck, was Buck.
“—school,” Chris finished, looking at Buck. Buck looked back, his eyes wide and frantic. For a couple of seconds they both just looked at each other.
“Hi, Buck,” he said. “Um.”
“Heeey, Chris,” Buck said. His voice cracked a little on the hey, which would probably have been funny under any other circumstance.

Summary
The entire apartment has been eggshells, lately. She can’t bring up anything meaningful in conversation without Harry’s jaw clenching, his eyes going hard and blank à la Athena Grant. Can’t talk about Mom, or Bobby. At least now she knows why he’s been pissy when she’d ask about school these past few months. Harry makes sure to steer clear of any discussion about their actual lives; May walks the line, dipping a toe into the murky waters sometimes just to see if he’ll still bite. He does, every time, and she backs off like a coward.
So it’s this— sitting on the couch with popcorn. Half invested in watching The Bachelor and half invested in watching Buck repeatedly frog a single line of navy blue crochet. Glancing at Harry every time something funny happens just to catch him smile. It’s pretending things are okay.
Or, May and Buck are at a loss with Harry's anger, and Eddie is more than happy to lend a hand. And a set of boxing gloves.

Summary
Eddie turned again, faster this time, just in time to see the letter H wobble and settle into place next to an I.
HI
Eddie blinked. For a long time, it felt as if he didn’t breathe. His hands curled into fists at his sides, not from anger, but something close. Something tangled in disbelief and fear and grief and the desperate, irrational hope he couldn’t let himself feel.
“Nope,” he said firmly to the empty kitchen. “Nope, nope, absolutely not.”
