    Summary

    He’s at Dodger Stadium, flat on the ground, looking up at his assailant. Hard concrete and nacho chips dig into his back. Blood pools in his mouth. He wonders if he could roll himself under the seats - similar to how Buck rolled himself underneath a firetruck all those years ago to save him, except Eddie can only save himself now -

    At least the kids are safe.

    She promised.

    “Where is she?!” the guy screams, pointing the gun at Eddie.

    Fucking Taylor Kelly is going to be the death of him.

    *

    Or - Eddie takes Chris and Theo to a Dodgers game. He doesn’t know what’s worse. The fact that he’s seated in the same section as Buck’s ex-girlfriend and Buck’s current boyfriend, or the fact that they’re all going to have fight for their lives soon.

    Summary

    Buck’s jaw clenches. “This isn’t you.”

    Eddie’s smile turns mean, borderline unrecognizable even to himself. Buck is right, this isn’t him. It doesn’t even sound like his voice. But he’s exhausted. He’s hurt. And he’s done pretending there’s a way out of this that doesn’t involve blood in the water—they’re too far gone for that.

    This wasn’t the plan, but he doesn’t pull back from the fight. He doubles down, clinging to the belief that devastation is better than emptiness, that being hated is better than being erased.

    “Funny,” Eddie says softly. “Is that what you tell yourself when you fuck anyone who’ll have you? That it doesn’t mean anything? That it’s easier than admitting you’re trying not to think about me?”

    Or,
    Eddie figures his shit out. Eventually.
    An Eddie Diaz character study, if you will.

    Summary

    Sequel to Breathing Room

    Ilya Rozanov has spent five years holding Shane Hollander at arm’s length - not because he didn’t love him, but because he loved him too much to ask him to risk everything for something that could fall apart. He was good at that: the careful distance, the walls that looked like indifference, the way he’d learned to be close without being close. He’d had a lot of practice.

    What he didn’t have practice for was what came after he was done lying to himself. He didn’t have practice for this - for something warm and bright and absolutely terrifying. Something that fits in the spaces between games and cities and the distance between Boston and Raleigh. Something that makes Ilya think, for the first time in a long time, that maybe the risk is worth it.

    He just needs to figure out what to do with it all before their careers swallow them whole

    He doesn’t get the chance to think about it for very long.

    Summary

    “Come on, Eddie,” Buck groans, “You may hide it well, but I know you don’t like Tommy.”

    Eddie wants to open his mouth and start telling Buck he is wrong. Wants to explain that Buck has it all twisted. But, Buck doesn’t have it wrong. He has it exactly spot on.

    Eddie envies Tommy. He has Buck. He has him and keeps letting him down.

    All Eddie can think about in these moments is how much better Eddie could treat Buck. How Eddie could protect him better, love him better, appreciate him better. And in the dark of his room, blanketed in the cover of night: how much better he could pleasure Buck.

    That last one was a recent addition to the list of things Eddie was sure he could do better than Tommy. It was one of the handful of things he kept locked in the deepest, darkest parts of his soul, only to emerge in the heat of the moment before being shoved back down in shame.

    At Eddie’s silence, Buck lets out a frustrated sigh that snaps Eddie back into focus and the present situation.

    5 times Tommy doesn’t show up for Buck so Eddie does instead, +1 time that Eddie made it clear to Buck that he wanted to be by his side for the rest of their lives.
