Summary
Eddie huffs. It’s respectable and masculine, probably. “You know I’m not interested in—”
“Yes, Eddie, I know,” Buck drolls. “You’re off the horse. The meat market is closed. Your dick is on Do Not Disturb. I just think the pot shouldn’t be calling the kettle out,” he gestures between them with an emphatic finger, “for bad dates. Not when the pot is, ostensibly, a born-again virgin.”
“I’m not a born-again virgin,” Eddie grumbles. “Don’t start this again.”
“I’m not starting anything,” Buck lies. “I’m watching the movie.” Another lie. Then he flops unceremoniously back down, head strewn across Eddie’s clenched thighs.
Or: Buck’s mouth moves faster than Eddie’s brain.

Summary
“You fucked him,” Buck says, easy as two plus two.
“I mean—” and Eddie cuts himself off immediately. He doesn’t know if correcting Buck and saying he fucked me is the best course of action at this point.
Buck stares, almost hopeful, as if expecting Eddie to follow it up with a negative on the accusation. I mean, that’s not what happened or, I mean, that’s clearly lotion on the bed, dumbass. Buck stares and stares, and the hope withers and dies, and he finally lets out a short, disbelieving laugh that doesn’t quite reach his eyes.
“Jesus, Eddie. So what— what, you fuck men now? Were you even gonna tell me?”
Or, Eddie sleeps with the Boston firefighter, and Buck takes it about as well as you'd expect. What's a little roughhousing between friends, anyway?

Summary
"What? What's wrong?" Maddie turns down the hallway, and she can see Eddie's room. It's right there.
"I think she just got back," Buck whispers. "Tell Chris I love him, I'm — I'm coming home. I'm not giving up, I'm going to fight."
She comes to a stop in the doorway to Eddie's room, panting. "Buck, wait I've got —"
The line goes dead.
"— Eddie here …" she trails off, making eye contact with a startled Eddie, sitting up and alert in his hospital bed.
"Was that —?" Eddie sits up as much as he can.
Maddie and Eddie finally go on that date.

Summary
There’s something about the way that whole thing went down at the bar—the way Buck looked at Eddie when that woman got their attention.
Eddie wasn’t interested; he was more than happy to make it to last call with Buck and stumble back into the hotel together, maybe have another drink in one of their rooms before calling it a night, but the way Buck looked at him… Eddie knew Buck wanted Eddie to throw his hat in the ring.
First dibs sounds awful, but it's sort of true. He’s been acutely invested in Eddie’s sex life lately, but that look.
Buck wide-eyed as he gauged Eddie’s reaction, like if Eddie gave him eyes that said No, not me but not you either, that would have been it. They’d reject her together. Continue as they were.
But Eddie gave him a different look, the one that said Go for it, and then Buck did.
As if he wanted Eddie’s permission.
Eddie has an eye-opening moment at the bar in Nashville.

Summary
He watches the speed gauge climb up in time with his racing heartbeat. Maybe if he drives fast enough, never stops, he can outrun this conversation. There’s a version of him that’d pick this path, that’s probably still on this same road, driving to outpace his own secrets.
He can keep driving forever, ignore the sticky feeling in his gut as he keeps stacking up lies and half-truths to hide behind.
‘I don’t like women.’
Or he could just crash.
OR: eddie comes out to buck as they're driving back from nashville to los angeles
