Summary
The thing is: Eddie hasn’t had to think about dating at all - not until his mother called to remind him how thirty-something-and-single he is right before Christmas. It hasn’t crossed his mind much, it hasn’t interested him whatsoever. He’s having too much fun hanging out with Buck all the time.
So no, he hasn’t considered dating men. Not really. He gets the idea and then he runs from it. Somehow, he always manages to run straight into Buck. The irony is not lost on him.

Summary
Eddie imagines it. The faux-domesticity of grocery shopping with his best friend and full-time fuckbuddy, filled up with come like a jam donut or something. It would be kind of ironic. It would be definitely, wholeheartedly, totally erotic.
It would blur the lines. But they’re always blurring the lines, aren’t they? Maybe they aren’t lines anymore so much as they are smears of fake boundaries long forgotten, abandoned in favour of more careless endeavours. They play fast and loose with this shit all the time. Who cares, when Buck is looking at Eddie like that? When all he’s asking to do is give Eddie everything he’s ever wanted?

Buck and Eddie run some errands.

Summary
But here’s the thing: Eddie’s taken giant mouthfuls of life and chewed every last one of them up. He’s taken enough, he’s still taking enough - he doesn’t want to be the one to ask for it. All he can do is offer himself up, over and over, and hope that Buck will finally get the hint and dig his claws into what’s been his from the very start.

Summary
“You trapped us up here in this heat,” he says flatly, “just to get me alone?”
Heels dragging on painted cement, Buck comes to a stop a few feet in front of him. “Yeah,” he says, flopping his arms out at his sides. “Yeah, we need to talk.”

Summary
For the last several months, Eddie has been working on dismantling the self-erected barriers about what he believes he does, and does not, deserve. He’s been attempting to teach himself it is unnecessary to sip joy from the cup like it’s a finite resource; that he can swallow it in huge mouthfuls, that he can drain the cup until it’s completely empty; that all that happens under those circumstances is the creation of more space, more space for the joy to flood in and fill up, again and again.
It’s a tricky balance. Some experiments are more successful than others.
