    Summary

    “Look," Maddie says. "I don’t have a lot of experience here. But I think it might not be exactly what you think. Like sometimes people just get all... twisted up inside. And it takes time to untangle, you know?”

    -

    Buck confesses. It doesn't go all that well.

    Summary

    There's an itch between his shoulder blades when Buck talks about Tommy, when Buck asks Eddie if he wants to join the two of them for a drink after work, when Buck smiles at a text message and Eddie knows it's from Tommy. His stomach had been twisted in knots for half of Maddie and Chim's wedding, watching the two of them.

    There's only one awful, inevitable conclusion: Eddie isn't actually as comfortable with Buck's coming out as he thought he was. Which is, frankly, unacceptable.

    Summary

    “They’ll be ready by September,” he tells Buck, a little thickly.

    “September,” Buck nods. “Good month. Summer end. We can make soup.”

    Eddie turns to him. “Not too long away?”

    “Nah,” Buck says, hand coming up to cup Eddie’s face. Eddie freezes, but Buck’s just using the pad of his thumb to oh-so-gently brush away a smudge of dirt on Eddie’s cheek. He keeps holding Eddie’s face for a moment more before dropping his hand, shifting to examine Eddie’s neatly planted rows of squash seeds. “Besides. They’re, uh. Worth waiting for.”

     

    or, eddie’s growing a garden. buck might be the most firmly planted thing in it.

    Summary

    This was the worst idea ever.

    Okay, maybe not the worst. Buck’s pretty sure this couldn't compete with the idea to, say, start a war or put all your savings in crypto. But on the list of crappy ideas he'd had, this was definitely in the top three, crappiness-wise.
