Summary
"He can’t decide if he wants to stare at Eddie or if looking at him right now feels like too much, so he settles for focusing on the plate in front of him. But he feels something lessen in his chest, and recognizes it as the anxiety that had made every swallow feel like he was going to be sick, like he was forcing food or water past a rock stuck in his throat. He’d barely eaten anything, let alone touched his wine glass at dinner. And when his mom had given him a look, he’d mumbled something about having a long shift and having to drive home.”
-
After an exhausting dinner with his parents, Buck ends up in front of Eddie’s house and finds himself not just welcomed but expected and cared for.

"Look, it's not a big deal," Ravi says. "It's nothing to be embarrassed about."
Chimney's eyes dance with barely restrained glee. "Don't listen to him," he says. "It is a big deal, and you should be embarrassed."
"Well I'm not embarrassed," snaps Buck, heat coloring his cheeks. "It was nothing, you know? People say stupid things in high adrenaline situations. It doesn't have to mean anything."
"So you're … not in love with Eddie?"
Eddie falls off a cliff, and it knocks a few truths loose.

Summary
“They say humans kill or destroy what they’re afraid of, and I’m no different,” Buck says sadly.
“Oh Buck… No, you’re not,” Eddie tries to comfort Buck, even if he’s not fully sure what is unraveling in front of his eyes.
A tear spills down Buck's cheek. “Yes, I am. That’s exactly what happened, Eddie,” his voice wobbles. “I took one look at the innocent spider, and I got scared, so I killed him.”
Before he can process his feelings properly, words come out of his mouth. “I love you so much,” Eddie breathes out.
OR: Buck kills a spider and has big feelings about it. Eddie has even bigger ones.

Summary
That’s the worst of it, Buck thinks. It’s not the nausea, the chills, the nightmares that haunt him even in his waking hours. It’s this. It’s Eddie, dropping into the chair beside his bed with a quiet, patient nod. It’s Eddie, looking at him like he’s still him, like he’s still Buck. Eddie, refusing to treat him like the broken, ruined thing he is, ignoring the fact that Buck’s misery is of his own making, that he alone dug this grave of pills and lies and it’s his to lie in alone.

Summary
“Do you think,” Will whispers, his voice so low that it is barely audible in the little space carved between them, “it's going to last?”
Mike frowns. “What?”
“The pain of loving you.”
The words land between them like shattered glass. Mike stops breathing, his eyes taking on a haunted look. For a moment he looks like he might speak —his mouth even opens slightly— but the words never come.
Drunk out of his mind at Stacey’s party, Will is forced to confront the truth he’s been running from: Mike is not his Tammy. Only this time, Mike is there to deal with the aftermath.

Summary
The issue is how it hugs Will's body so comfortably, can see how it clasps around Will’s waist in such a mouth drooling way it makes Mike's eye twitch a bit. Will looks so soft, so airy and free he's afraid Will might vanish into thin air. Is this real life right now, is all Mike can compute in his mind, his legs buckling, mouth suddenly salivating, and he feels his pupils dilate.

Summary
“Hey man,” Eddie says, sliding into the seat next to Buck and pulling him out of his thoughts. “You good? You’ve been staring at that wall for a while now.”
Buck blinks as he raises his head, caught off guard by Eddie’s concern. Part of him wants to snap at Eddie—tell him to go ask Hen, since they’re so close now. Buck’s jealousy has always had teeth; a beast he doesn’t always know how to control, or how to keep from snapping its jaws at people.
But right now, it’s overshadowed by the excitement of Eddie looking at him; seeing him. There’s a warmth spreading through his chest, one he hasn’t felt in a little while, and all he can think is more, more, more and look at me, look at me, look at me.
Keep looking at me. Look at me forever, because when no one looks at me, I feel like a ghost.
Or: Buck doesn't know how to handle the way everything is changing and it makes him fall back into old habits.

“We’ll kill him,” Mike speaks the words like a promise. “And then we’ll spend the rest of our lives forgetting he ever existed, okay? We’ll be happy.”
“Yeah.” Will breathes, squeezing his eyes shut to keep away the tears. He wants it more than anything, but dread curls heavily in his stomach, and the lie makes him feel even sicker. “We’ll be happy.”

Summary
“I—I would tell you.” He says reflexively, but he doesn’t take it back. The words are true. He hears Mike’s breath catch and his hand twitches. “I just wouldn’t want you to– to pity me. Or see me… differently.”
“I would never.” The response is instant. “You’re strong. I’d never pity you. I… god, how do I explain?” Mike turns his body to face Will head on and grabs his hand properly. Will feels a shiver run through him, but he squeezes back all the same. “I’m sorry. I’m so fucking sorry, for what you’ve been through, whatever it is. But it would never, never make me look at you differently.”
“Promise?”
“I promise."
Or: Will breaks down after the events at the MAC Z and trusts Mike to help him pick up the pieces.

Summary
Will lifts his eyes from the posters on his wall. He misses Bowie and The Cure during the split second his eyes take the road to Mike’s face. When they arrive at their destination, his heart trembles in his chest.
“I’m sorry,” he starts. Eyes still wide and sad. “Don’t be mad at me anymore, I can’t stand it.”
Maybe Will should feel bad for making his boyfriend go through such an emotional turmoil. But when Mike looks at him like this and uses this voice, he can’t hold himself back from enjoying all it. The concept of guilt be damned.
He has the audacity to push it too.

Summary
Sometimes, all he can think about is how he’ll kill himself.
“Will! Will, come on- come on, wake up-”
His lungs shudder as he breathes in, hands gripping his face, his shoulders, alternating wherever they could.
“That’s it- that’s it, come on, come back to me-”
He feels dizzy, out of it, the way he always did. He’s pulled into a chest, a heartbeat he could spend forever memorizing, and tries to get his bearings.
Or, Will is going through some shit. He knows a way to get out of it, but... no one seems content to let that happen.

“Is it Tammy?”
Will feels his face scrunch up in confusion, pulled clean out of his thoughts by the absurdity of the question. “Tammy?”
“Earlier, you said- it’s Tammy, right? The reason you’re- you’re ignoring me? We have to be a team, right now-”
Will blinks for a moment, head shaking as he leans it back, trying to think of how Mike could be so… so out of the loop. “Mike, Vecna is going to kill us, I don’t care about Tammy-”
“But you like him, right?”
“What?! Tammy Thompson?”
Mike lags, freezing. “Thompson?”
Or, Will is preparing to give up one last thing for the people he loved. The last thing he hasn't given them yet. His life. Mike, however, is a lot more concerned with whoever this Tammy person is and why Will cared about them enough to include them in his confession.

Summary
The walkie at Will’s hip crackled, as if Mike felt his ears burning. “Will,” he said, voice low.
Will unhooked the radio from his belt. Nervous energy coursed through him, and he took a deep breath before answering. “Yeah?”
“You okay down there?”
“I’m good. You?”
“Me too.” Then, a little bashful: “I got you something.”
Will’s face hurt from trying not to smile like an idiot. “Really?”
“Guys,” Lucas cut in, exasperated. “Get your own channel if you’re going to flirt.”
Mike confesses his love in subtle ways at the end of the world. It takes a minute for Will to catch up.

“Okay,” Mike echoes. “So, I was – thinking. We should sleep together.”
