    Summary

    Eddie considers downloading Grindr. He’s not gay, he thinks, but curiosity killed the cat after all. It would kill Eddie’s curiosity, that’s for sure, shoot it point-blank and then Eddie can go to work in two days not feeling like he’s been wrung out on a washing line.

    He shoves the thought down his throat until it’s stuck in his oesophagus and swallows. He showers, changes into sweatpants and an old shirt from the academy and climbs into bed. He fiddles around on social media, and texts Buck to let him know he’s home and in bed and when Buck doesn’t reply, Eddie decides no, absolutely not, and rolls over and goes to bed.

    Eddie walks in on Buck hooking up with a guy from Grindr. He's really normal about it.

    Summary

    Buck kissed him. It didn’t feel like a declaration the way kisses usually do. It didn’t feel stifling. It felt like a plea. It felt like exactly what he said, like don’t go. Buck is still getting over Tommy, and Eddie is straight, and the two of them—it’s easy between the two of them.

    The engine roars and Buck turns to look at him, eyebrows raised as if asking if he’s ready. Eddie nods, swallows, and puts his head back. Buck kissed him, and they won’t talk about it, and Eddie’s fine with that because really, Buck’s the only thing that’s ever been easy for Eddie.

    -

    or Buck kisses Eddie in LA. Eddie kisses Buck in El Paso. They figure out what that means somewhere along the way to bringing Chris back home.

    Summary

    “Can I-and I apologize if this is overstepping, in any way,” Alex continues, her voice mercifully dissolving the mental image Eddie had cursed himself with. 

    “But, since we’re here, I just wanted to offer."

    She digs around in her purse for a moment, and Eddie looks at Buck. He raises his eyebrows in a question, and Buck shrugs. 

    Sure. Now he knows what Eddie is thinking.

    Alex discards her purse and looks up at Buck and Eddie. 

    “Well, I can’t find my cards, but I’d be happy to give you guys my information.” 

    Eddie narrows his eyes in genuine uncertainty. 

    Buck leans forward, elbows on his knees, and asks the question they’re both thinking. 

    “Information for what, exactly?” 

    “Right, sorry, I wasn’t super clear,” Alex says with a shake of her head. She smiles brightly. “I do couples counseling, too. First session is on me, if you guys are interested. I have plenty of experience with long-term partners. LGBT included, so you’d feel right at home!” 

    Eddie leans forward now, mouth open in shock. 

    “How–” 

    Eddie doesn’t finish the thought, because Buck is choking. Of course.
