    Summary

    “Your boy—Buck,” Brad says. “First marriage?”

    “Pardon?”

    “Well, your wife is—” Brad starts, stops. Remembers at least a third of the lecture he’s been given at least a dozen times by his publicist on the danger of making assumptions. “He calls your wife by her given name—I mean, does the same to you, but I’d reckon that has more to do with professionalism than personal grievances, given the fact that you clearly get on.”

    —and fuck, maybe that’s another thing Brad should try to learn by watching Bobby.

    in which Brad Torrence only almost passes out, and observes the aftermath.

    Summary

    Eddie wakes suddenly and violently, nearly throwing himself off the bed before he grasps at the sheets, eyes finding Buck in the dark. 

    Buck, who is sitting up in bed, panting, with a hand pressed to his chest. 

    “Buck? Buck, you okay?” Eddie rasps, voice thick with sleep. 

    “Racism wasn’t enough,” Buck slurs, barely coherent. “Had to frame me for murder, too.” A pause. Then, a huff of breath, followed by, “Naturally.” 

    Eddie blinks. Blinks again. “What?” 

    As if he’d never said anything at all, Buck lies back down, eyes already closed. Within seconds, he’s snoring. 

    Eddie wrestles with the urge to wake him again. Clearly, he’d been having some sort of nightmare, but— it seems he shook himself out of it? Probably? 

    “Okay,” Eddie breathes to himself, slowly settling back under the covers. “Night, then.”

    OR: Buck has a nightmare about Tommy and subsequently breaks up with him. Unrelated to this (allegedly), Eddie dreams about The Bachelor.

    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

    She can't find Chat.

    They were supposed to meet for patrol an hour ago.

    Chat never misses a patrol, and he was supposed to meet her an hour ago, and Marinette can't find him anywhere.

    So, she might be panicking a little. She might be panicking a lot more than she'd thought not being able to locate her partner would cause, especially since it's not like she usually knows where he is. Most of the time she has no idea where he is and it doesn't usually bother her.  It's not something she usually even really thinks about very much. 

    But Chat Noir was supposed to meet her here an hour ago and he's still not here. There's no note, no Plagg, no message on her yo-yo.  There's nothing to let her know where her missing partner might be, or why he isn't already here with her like he's supposed to be.

    And-

    And Marinette might be feeling a little clingier than usual, right now.

    Summary

    A year ago at that bachelor party, so drunk he was draped across Buck’s lap with his nose buried in all the intoxicating silky heat beneath the notch of Buck’s jaw, Eddie asked Buck what he smelled like to him.

    It’s not a question you’re supposed to ask, but Eddie forgets the rules sometimes. Ignores them. Things like that don’t matter between him and Buck, they never have.

    He’s still not sure what he expected Buck to say. Nothing, maybe, which he assumed was the truth, Eddie’s scent faded to barely echo of what it should be. But Buck had taken Eddie’s jaw in one hand, had tipped his head back so the line of his neck was bared to Buck like an offering, had stopped to scent him with his mouth still open, had said against Eddie’s sweat-tacky skin, so low his voice thrummed in his chest, You’re the sweetest thing I’ve ever met.

    *

    Eddie hasn’t gone into heat since he presented at seventeen. But living with an alpha who takes care of him for the first time in his life is about to change that.
