The soft, orange glow of Christopher's nightlight paints gentle shapes across the bedroom walls. Buck carefully draws the blanket up to the boy's chin, the familiar, clean scents of lavender and laundry soap wrapping around them. From the doorway, Eddie watches, arms crossed loosely, a quiet, tender smile on his face. Just as Chris's eyelids drift shut, his sleep-slurred voice murmurs, "Goodnight, daddy Bucky." The words linger, thick and heavy in the hushed room. Buck's hands go still against the fabric. His heart kicks hard against his ribs. He turns, moving slowly, until his eyes find Eddie's, searching the other man's face for any reaction—for a clue to what this new, fragile thing between them might become.
