🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

Me cause there is no new episode this week 😢

is this anything idk but you all can have it i wrote it this morning

Buck’s head is pillowed on Tommy’s broad chest, Tommy’s fingers combing through his hair. Buck loves this part - the afterglow. For a long time, he never even got this far. It was all hookups and meaningless sex, and then sometimes even with his girlfriends it never felt like this.

It never really felt like he belonged to someone the way he does with Tommy.

“Evan, can I ask you something?” Tommy’s lips brush over Buck’s temple as he speaks.

“Anything.”

“Everyone else calls you Buck.” Tommy sounds a little unsure of himself, which isn’t very common. Tommy Kinard might be the most confident person Buck has ever met in his life.

“That’s not a question.”

“Do you want me to do that?”

Buck looks up at him, confused. He’s not sure why Tommy is asking. He’s always just been Evan with Tommy. And sure, most of the time Buck corrects people, but with Tommy he has never felt the need.

“No? Why would I want that?”

“I don’t know. I just wondered.” Tommy laughs. “Put the puppy dog eyes and pout away, Evan.”

“It’s just.” Buck sits up, pressing his hand into Tommy’s ribs. “I like when you call me Evan. Sure, I’m Buck. That’s who I am out there, and it’s been great to remove myself from all the - the bullshit. The things I grew up with and my parents. I can’t imagine being Evan out there. I think I would hate it.”

“But?”

“But in here - with you - it feels like I’m reclaiming it. Evan doesn’t feel like a disappointment or someone who was born to save a life he couldn’t save; with you Evan isn’t someone who even his parents couldn’t love.”

“Evan.”

Buck pauses, and then leans down and kisses Tommy, soft and slow. He rests a hand on the side of Tommy’s face. “Please never stop calling me Evan.”

“I promise.”

“Good. That’s good. The way you say my name makes Evan feel worthy of love.”

They haven’t said they love each other yet. Buck can feel it coming. Tommy is the best person he’s ever dated. His friends love Tommy and his family loves Tommy.

Buck’s sure it’s coming, but for now he’ll take the way Tommy smiles and says Evan softly against his lips like a promise.
