They’ve been texting and talking for eight days now, Buck is absolutely infatuated with the guy, and he’s also—terrified. On some level, he knows Eddie must be conventionally attractive; he’d dated (or just slept with) Ben, after all, and Buck knows that Ben has a type. But he’s more than a little worried that he’ll look at Eddie and not feel anything, and then he’ll spend the entire eleven hour flight freaking out about it. He stares down at his phone, flips over to his messages and scans through them. It’s just after midnight back home, which means that Maddie’s asleep, and she’s the only one who really knows about Eddie, so he can’t even attempt Hen (who, unlike Chim, would immediately reach out to someone she knew at another station to get every last bit of information) or, God forbid, Ana, who might actually kill him for jumping from Ben to Eddie so fast. But on the off-chance she wouldn’t—she would definitely call him a coward for not picking up. He calls Eddie back.
