Summary
That had been a week and half ago. Eddie had since told Buck about another two dates, different guys, but still not him. And now there he was, flirting with someone, a man, right in front of Buck. Something in Buck’s mind clicked. Eddie wasn’t interested in him. Eddie was SO uninterested that he would go out and flirt with a man right in front of Buck.
Buck began to move toward the mic, then, cutting off whatever Ravi had been saying. He got to the front, scanned through the songs and selected one. He stood in front of the mic and chanced a look over at the bar. Eddie was still talking with the blond, hand on his arm and laughing. He took a breath and closed his eyes as the first chords of the song played out of the speakers and he started.
Or- Eddie comes out, Buck spirals and sings karaoke drunk about it... at Eddie... and then runs away.

Summary
“Eddie, I promise you that no one is making any reports or trying to take your kid away, okay? I’ve seen bad and neglectful parents, I’ve heard kids talk about them, hell I’ve had them. You? You are the best dad, I knew that before you even walked into the room. Your kid loves you so much. That is not a sign of neglectful parenting. He talks about how cool your job is because you get to help people every day and that he loves living here in LA so much more than Texas. The only negative thing he’s talked about is your cooking-”
Eddie sputtered, face heating in embarrassment as his face warmed.
“We’ve all been there, man. What I’m saying though is that yes a mistake was made, but not on your part. You thought you were leaving your kid with a good person that you could trust. No one will fault you for that. What I can do is send you the security footage of the incident in case you wish to make a report, and we can go from there.”
“I see why my kid claimed you as his best friend. You really have a way of talking to people, Buck.”
Buck ducked his head, smiling bashfully, squeezing Eddie's shoulder once before releasing it.

Summary
“You should watch Heated Rivalry! It’s perfect for you guys,” Hen said brightly, rising from her chair and making her way toward the sink to dump out the rest of her coffee.
Ravi’s accompanying nod was almost grave. “HBO Max.”
------
Buck and Eddie watch Heated Rivalry together and get a little... heated, together.

Summary
Sequel to "With a Friend in the Dark.”
It's been weeks since Buck's cancer diagnosis, and in most ways, things are looking up. The idea of resuming chemo still frightens him, but not nearly as much as it did last time. This time, he has people on his side. But Buck is about to learn that treatment is just the first challenge. Money troubles, identity crises, learning what real love means for the first time at twenty-seven... who knew cancer would be so complicated?
Eddie, meanwhile, is still wrestling with his guilt and anger over how he handled things the first time. Being there for Buck? That's a given. Figuring out what it means to be Buck's friend through his cancer treatments, in the wake of all that's happened between them? That seems a lot trickier. Even more so when Eddie starts to realize that anger and guilt might not be the only feelings he's having.

Summary
Buck skidded to a halt, horror etched across his face. “Ed-Eddie,” he stammered. “Please, just… I’ll block his number, I’ll delete the thread, just… Stop scrolling and give me my phone. Please.”
“Relax Buck,” Eddie retorted, rolling his eyes at him while still scrolling. “I may not be great with technology but I know how to block a conta—” and proceeded to choke on his own tongue.
Suddenly, it all fell into place: why Buck was so adamant about getting his phone back, why he didn't want Eddie to keep scrolling.
Because in Eddie Diaz’s hand was a picture of his best friend on his knees, dick in hand. His piercing blue eyes glancing up at the camera like they were looking right at him.
