    Summary

    “Wait, you need a sitter?” Chimney says. Eddie nods. “Maddie’s brother got back in town a few nights ago, he’s looking for work.”

    Eddie frowns. He doesn’t know much about this mysterious brother of Maddie’s – doesn’t even really know much about Maddie, either, aside from being Chimney’s girlfriend – but he’s pretty sure every time he’s been brought up in conversation it’s not been particularly inspiring. “Is this the brother who flunked out of college because he spent all his tuition on a motorcycle?”

    Chimney colours a little. “Um. No?”

     

    or, Buck babysits Christopher and Eddie is—fine about it, actually.

    Summary

    "One final thing, Mr. Buckley,” the building manager says, flipping through the immediate tenancy release forms Buck has just signed. “Do you have a place to stay for the night? We’re working with the Red Cross to offer emergency accommodation for those who need it.”

    “He’ll stay with me until everything is sorted out.” Eddie doesn’t hesitate. It won’t be the first time they’ve lived together. They spent months crammed into Buck’s tiny apartment with Hen and Chimney during lockdown.

    Buck looks at him and doesn’t say anything but Eddie can see the question in his eyes, are you sure?

    Eddie meets his gaze, places a hand on his shoulder, and squeezes, always.
    -
    Or, Buck's apartment is destroyed when an earthquake shakes LA, luckily there's always a space for him in the Diaz household.
