    Summary

    “They asked us to share something interesting about our families.”

    “And you—” Eddie stops, presses his lips together, then flicks a hand toward him. “You went with my imaginary engagement.”

    Christopher finally puts his phone away. “I didn’t say you were engaged.”

    “You told everyone I have a firefighter boyfriend.”

    “Yeah.”

    Eddie lifts a hand. “Which firefighter?”

    Christopher gives him a look.

    Eddie waits.

    The look continues.

    He lets his hand fall. “Christopher.”

    “Who do you think?”

    “I’m asking you.”

    Christopher shifts one crutch against the wall and gestures vaguely at Eddie, like the answer should be somewhere on his person. “Buck.”

    Or Chris tells his science club that Buck and Eddie are basically married

    Summary

    It’s not that Buck didn’t spend a lot of time with the Diazes before, but since he started fostering Theo, he’s spending a lot of time with the Diazes. Theo imprinted on both Eddie and Chris like a duckling, and it’s not like Buck’s going to deny him the opportunity to spend time with them. Not when they’re Buck’s favorite people, too.

    Or: Buck finally notices The Elephant in the Room.

    Summary

    From there, it becomes a thing. At least once a day, either Christopher or Buck declare that a mild inconvenience is a part of the anti-gay agenda.

    They hit every red light? During pride month? Homophobic.

    The hot water stops working? In June? Homophobic.

     

    Or, Eddie doesn't think he really needs to come out to anyone. Christopher adopts a new catchphrase. Buck is confused.

    Summary

    It isn’t supposed to feel like this. Even after everything, his whole life, all the people who have left, the expanse of empty sheets in the morning a familiar sight—even after all that, Buck is still a romantic, deep down. He still thought if you found someone who stuck around for years, and you let them in and let them see the real you, and then they kissed you and took you to bed, then that was it, the happily ever after. At the very least they’d be there in the morning.

    Summary

    When Theo falls under the care of Buck, Chris gets along with him so well that he asks Buck to babysit him every now and then.

    That's how Fridays are created.

    They fall into this routine quickly, with a few bumps along the way. While Buck tries his best to preserve the family he accidentally built, Eddie does everything in his power to show Buck there's one more thing in the equation that hasn't been addressed yet.

     

    or: Buck is bad at reading signs and Eddie is even worse at expressing how he feels with actual words.
