Chef's Kiss | BUDDIE

Morning After

~Buck's POV~

Waking up to sunlight coming thru a certain and water running I tried remembering what happened last night.

Hands touching. Clothes coming off. Lips touching. Laughter touching. Drinking beer.

Not in that order it all blurred together as I sat up seeing the evidence of my clothes on the floor. Few beer bottles scattered around the room. I heard water turn off before I cursed. I didn't just do anyone last night.

I did Eddie.

~Eddie's POV~

Hearing snoring next to me I realized last night wasn't a dream. Slowly getting out of the bed I saw Buck on his stomach with his naked skin glowing as the sun peaked through the curtain. I used the blanket to cover him up as I got up. Picking up my clothes as I passed him to run to bathroom. Felt weird using someone else's shower but I took quick shower. After getting out I turned on the sink to rinse my face one more time to wake myself up. After drying off I tried keeping my head clean off the thoughts that were swimming in my head.

I did Buck.

Walking out quietly to not wake Buck but once back in the room I saw him sat up looking into the void. Sh t.

"Hey.."
I heard Buck say as I smiled little walking around. Sitting on the desk chair before moving a beer bottle I sat on. Putting it on the desk I started to put on my shoes.
"Morning.."
I mumbled. What do you say to your co worker who you just f ..
"Look about last night —"
Buck started but I cut him off.
"It's cool it was an accident. Won't happen again."
I said before putting one foot down and then the other to tie my other shoe.
"Yeah yeah you right exactly what I was going to say."
"Awesome."
After both my shoes were on I stood up and went to the door.
"I can't give you ride sorry I'm late taking Christopher to school."
"Oh sorry no worries I'll walk.."
"Awesome .. um so yeah see you."
I walked out and closing door behind me I cursed to myself. When I went to my truck I realized I didn't have my keys. Sh t it was on the dresser. Turning around I went to walk back but Buck walked out in one of the hotel silk black robes.
"You forgot this."
He walked over to me and I saw his hair was styled from the last night adventures. I looked around seeing a group of three cleaning ladies whispering and looking at us.
"Yep thanks."
I took them from his hands and turned walking away.
"Look the morning after it doesn't have to be this awkward right? We can act like it didn't happen."
Buck said following me I nodded not facing him.
"Yeah yep."
I made it to my truck and prayed he went inside I still felt the stares on me.
"Okay yeah sounds good. But look if it means anything last night —"
"Didn't happen."
I said turning to him and he looked hurt and I felt bad. But I couldn't date coworkers and especially if he's just going to leave soon. Plus being in a same sex relationship in Mexico could be prison or even death. I can't let Christopher grow up an orphanage.
"Yeah right sorry."
I watched him walk away as I tighten the hold of my keys in my hand. Cursing I didn't realize it drew blood. Getting in my truck I used my hand that wasn't bloody and found napkin. Pressing it on the small blood cut I groaned.

Even if I told myself last night didn't happen it did.. and what scared me more is I would do it again.. with Buck.

(Sorry it's short and sad . But sad is in real life so many countries still don't allow lgbtq+ to get married, date or even hold hands !! We need more LOVE around not HATE!!)
