    Summary

    Then, Theo says, “Are you a boyfriend?”

    And the question is loud, a yell that makes Buck’s stomach drop. Because Buck’s not stupid; his phone call with Hen was yesterday, and Theo had been a room away.

    Buck glances over and oh my God, oh God no, Theo is staring up at a gorgeous, gorgeous man, with big, broad shoulders and tan skin and huge biceps and a strong nose and—

    The attractive man points at himself. “Are you asking me?”

    Unfortunately, a defeated part of Buck thinks, his feet frozen in place.

    Theo’s big mouth opens again, and adrenaline rushes straight in Buck’s veins, something wild and anxious cracking open inside his chest. He rushes to Theo’s side, but it’s too late.

    “Are you a boyfriend? Buck needs a boyfriend for ice cream.”

    — — —
    Or Theo finds Buck a boyfriend. Buck and Eddie are stupid. Chris is tired.

    Summary

    The only warning he gets is the catch in Eddie’s breath, before he bursts into tears, dropping his head to the table with an audible sound as sobs wrack his body.

    “I’m sorry,” he sobs into his folded arms as Buck blinks in surprise.

    — the aftermath of buck and eddies first fight as a couple.

    Summary

    When he gets close enough, Chris can see that the paper he is clutching in his tiny hands is a card. A really badly coloured card, with a stick figure drawing of a woman and a much smaller figure with blond hair.
    Oh.
    Chris gets it before Theo even says the words.
    “Mrs. Tina said it’s mother’s day on Sunday. We made cards,” Theo explains, his voice lacking the usual enthusiasm.
    Chris has no idea what to say. He might relate, but that only makes it worse because he knows that there isn’t a thing you can say to make a child feel better after losing a parent. It just sucks, and there is no real fix for it.

    OR,
    With Mother's Day coming up, Theo misses his mom. Chris knows a thing or two about that.

    Summary

    Theo sighs dramatically and with full gusto, all the fight leaving him as he stares up at the ceiling.

    “But I don't want to go to bed,” he whines quietly.

    “I know,” Eddie says empathetically, “Going to bed is Buck’s least favorite part of the day, too. But, hey,” he continues, “The more sleep you get, the more energy you have for adventures tomorrow. Isn’t that right, Buck?”

    “That’s right,” Buck says, “and Eddie told me that he was going to take you to see the Hollywood sign tomorrow.”

    Eddie had not told Buck that he was going to take Theo to see the Hollywood sign.

    Buck’s face appears on the screen, wearing a knowing grin, and Eddie realizes, with a fond sort of inevitability, that they’ll be going to the Hollywood sign tomorrow.

    Or, Eddie and Theo get their own version of the tsunami episode.

     
    title based on the song With Arms Wide Open by Creed

    Summary

    “Tell me your story,” Buck asks, once they’re all settled in his office-slash-living room. It’s become his go-to ice-breaker for new clients—how could he expect to plan their wedding if he doesn’t know who they are as a couple? Sure, he’s a romantic, but it’s also practical. It’s how he learns how to turn the big day from great into something magical. He sips his coffee, leaving his notepad in his bag for now. He wants this to be as natural as possible, and he can jot down his notes later.

    Ana, the bride-to-be, smiles brightly, linking her fiancé’s hand with her own. “We met about three years ago. I was his son’s teacher.”

    “She’s amazing with him,” the fiancé, Eddie, cuts in. He’s incredibly handsome, with his brown eyes and long lashes, perfect smile, and hair combed to the side. They make a beautiful couple.

    Or, Buck plans Eddie's wedding.
