    Summary

    "BABY SHANE!!!! The actor looks so much like you, sweetheart! He doesn't have the freckles quite right but look how cute he is!"

    Shane glares at his husband. "Cute?" He rolled his eyes but got instantly distracted, "that's not how our conversation went!"

    "Close enough." He waves his free arm at the screen. "Is for TV, won't be exactly right. Just relax, kotenok." Ilya was torn between watching the screen and checking in on his husband. Shane won, he always won. "We don't have to watch it if you don't want to…? I can watch it by myself."

    "No," Shane sighs. "It's fine, it's just weird. The guy who is playing you is kinda cute. He has your scowl down." He pauses, "am I really that awkward?"

    Or: what if Game Changers was biographical fiction so Shane and Ilya got to watch their love story on TV...and see the world react.

    Summary

    “My, uh. My dad’s had a heart attack,” he says, sort of like it hasn’t sunk in yet, “He’s still in the hospital, it was. It was pretty bad, I think.”

    “I’m sorry, Buck,” says Chris, “Is he going to be okay?”

    “I don’t know,” says Buck, “She wasn't. It wasn’t clear, it was, she was. She wants me to go.”

    “Do you want to?” Eddie asks, quiet, and Buck’s eyes snap back to him.

    “Eddie,” he says, wretched, “She wants me to help. She wants me. She wants me.”

    Summary

    Before the host could continue talking about “Mr. Sexy Fireman” any more, Eddie’s phone buzzed. He looked down, and his stomach clenched. ‘Producer Katy’. “Shit,” Eddie said, grabbing at his phone. “C’mere, you stupid thing.”

    Finally, he got a grip and answered the phone. “Yo, Katy! Any news yet?”

    “Yes, actually. I think we got someone for you.”

    OR

    Evan “Buck” Buckley, a young firefighter from LAFD 118, soars into fame after his daring rescue of a young woman was filmed and went viral on social media. When a Dancing with the Stars producer walks into the station with an offer, Buck is introduced to the world of ballroom dance. His partner is certainly not who he expects…

    Eddie Diaz is entering his 4th season of being a pro on Dancing with the Stars with little success with his previous partners. After being eliminated in Week 5 last season, Eddie is ready to finally make it to the finals. So when he gets a note from the producers saying that they found him a partner, Eddie expects a gymnast or a model, or someone like that… not a devastatingly handsome firefighter…

    Summary

    Buck, 27
    Firefighter

     

    What made me apply for Love is Blind? Uh, well, it's been a couple of months since my last serious relationship ended. Which was also my first serious relationship. But I feel like I'm ready for a real commitment. That, and one of my coworkers made me apply, so if this all goes wrong, blame Chimney.

     

    Eddie, 28
    Firefighter

     

    My sisters actually applied for me. They said it wouldn't be like other dating shows, that's its meant to be like a science experiment. My wife- sorry, my ex-wife, still getting used to it, divorced me fairly recently. I want to get back in the dating pool, but it's hard when you're a single dad. I'd like to find a real connection, and somehow this seems preferable to having my tía set me up on dates with her friends’ daughters.

     

    ***
    Buck and Eddie meet on Love is Blind, and find themselves more drawn to each other than the women they're supposed to be falling in love with.
