Summary
"Can I try something?"
"Yeah, sure, g-go ahead, man." Buck cringes, and even that is adorable.
"Close your eyes."
"E-Eddie," Buck croaks helplessly.
"I'm not gonna bite, Buckley. Trust me?"
Buck closes his eyes. Squeezes them shut, really.
Eddie tugs his face into the curve of Buck's shoulder before he can lose the nerve, Buck's pulse fluttering wildly against the tip of Eddie's nose.
Buck is struggling after the events in New Mexico. Eddie decides to move in with him about it.

Summary
Maddie’s eyebrows rise, and she looks past Buck to Eddie, the corners of her mouth curling upwards. “My kisses don’t work on Uncle Eddie,” she says, and if she thinks Buck misses the way she says it—Uncle Eddie—she’s sorely mistaken. He knows exactly what she’s doing.
And he realizes too late that that means he should probably be afraid.
Jee gasps, eyes going wide. “What?” She asks breathlessly. “Then how will his ouchies get better?”
Maddie hums thoughtfully—performatively—before her eyes slowly slide over to Buck. He starts to shake his head, unsure exactly what she’s about to do but deeply aware that he’s not going to like it. “I have heard,” she says, leaning into her like she has a secret, “That best friend kisses are just as good as mommy kisses.” She tosses her hair over her shoulder and looks at Chimney. “And almost as strong as daddy kisses, too.”

Summary
He places both hands on the back of Buck’s thigh, firm but controlled, and starts with long, gentle strokes up the muscle to spread the oil.
Buck exhales like he’s been holding his breath since he walked in the door.
Eddie focuses on the work. The hamstring is tense—ropey, tight under his palms. Eddie can feel where the fibers pull wrong, where Buck is compensating.
“Tell me if it’s too much,” Eddie says.
Buck’s voice is muffled into his forearms. “Okay.”
Or Buck has a sore hamstring, Eddie gives him a massage to help with the pain.

Summary
He's going back to the aquarium.
Not for Buck. Obviously, categorically, definitively not for Buck.
For Christopher, who loved it.
For a new sticker, because the old one is gone and he needs a replacement the way you'd replace a toothbrush or a phone charger, because it's a functional object that serves a functional purpose in his life.
If Buck happens to be there, then fine, great. Eddie can say hi, because there's nothing weird about wanting to see someone again. People revisit people. That's a normal thing to do. It doesn't have to mean anything. Besides, Chris loved Buck, so really, he only hopes Buck is there so Chris can see him again.
Or,
Eddie and his totally normal obsession with the aquarium. Which definitely has nothing to do with a certain employee named Buck.Part 2 to 'i'll take sexuality crisis at the aquarium for $108, Alex'
