Summary
“But with Bobby, I’ve been trying to do better,” Eddie says.
A hand rests on his shoulder, a thumb stroking. It’s a familiar gesture, but the fingers aren’t calloused enough to be her brother’s. Maddie’s fingers are slimmer, more delicate. It eases the hurt all the same.
“I think you have been,” Maddie reassures him, “at least you’re not joining illegal fight clubs this time. Just very legal book clubs.”
Eddie snorts. The callout was unexpected.
“You’re not what?” Karen’s eyes bulge out of her head as she sits back down.
Eddie chuckles and finally meets Maddie’s gaze. “I hate that Buck tells you everything.”
OR: Eddie joins a book club with Maddie and Karen after Bobby’s death, while Buck slowly drifts away.

Summary
“Listen,” Buck says when the silence has stretched on too long to bear. “I’ll talk to you tomorrow, alright? Get some sleep.”
“Wait,” Eddie says before Buck can hang up. “Just – take me to bed with you.”
Buck pauses. “What?”
"Not – Jesus, not like that. I just meant – if it’s bothering you to be alone, then you don’t have to be.”
“Eddie,” Buck says, filled to the brim with so much fondness he’s afraid he might burst. “You don’t have to do that.”

Buck can't sleep. Eddie helps.

Summary
“It just—when we were at the club. You made it seem like maybe, there’s a reason you’re not dating… women.”
Eddie freezes. Ravi had said it the other night, but Eddie had not been expecting him to so boldly repeat it after the previous unfavorable reaction.
“And—I—I know that sometimes reasons for not dating women can be… um, you know, hard to process. Alone.”
Oh good lord, he’s really going there.

Summary
“Stubble’s kinda crazy,” Buck says, “And it actually kinda drives me crazy. I didn’t think I’d be into that, you know? But it’s cool. Like, he’s a man, you know?”
Hen whoops and claps him on the back. “That is nasty and I do not know, but I’m happy for you.”
Buck grins. “Sometimes I kinda feel small. Which has, like, never happened before.”
“Wow,” Chim says dryly, “Wonder what that’s like.”
“It’s just like, you know, even though it doesn’t feel as good, there are still all these new things that I didn’t expect I’d like so much.”
Hen frowns at him. “What do you mean, doesn’t feel as good?”
Buck shrugs. “Well, you know, like, it can kinda hurt sometimes.”
All at once, Eddie, Chim, and Maddie speak, their voices overlapping: “Can you specify it?” “Wait, it hurts?” “Buck, he’s hurting you?”
They’re all sitting forward in their seats now, and Buck scrambles to defuse the situation.
“No! No, I mean, it doesn’t, like, hurt hurt, it’s just, like, ouch! Y’know! Like, normal. Just… uncomfortable. Sometimes.”

Summary
Eddie tried to figure out how to explain. “My, uh, apartment walls are pretty thin.”
“Mhm,” she said.
“So, I can, you know. Hear things. Coming from the other side of the wall. Which, like, I guess is his bedroom.” Eddie’s face was on fire. “So, the second time it happened, I thought, I’ll just wait until he opens the door so I can introduce myself and ask him to keep it down.”
“But then you saw him,” she finished.
“But then I saw him.”
——
Eddie just moved to LA with Chris for a fresh start. What he gets instead is an earful of his neighbor’s sex life, several pairs of earplugs, and just maybe, the love of his life.
