Summary
Steve almost whispers, “We’re, uh… we’re doing this then?”
Eddie swallows, pretends it’s not basically a gulp. He nods, pretends it’s not a little frantic.
“You’re sure?” Steve says, moving closer to Eddie as if to test the waters.
“Yes,” Eddie says.
Steve closes the rest of the distance so they’re sitting with their legs pressed against each other. He tentatively reaches out, taking hold of Eddie’s hand where it rests on his knee, like it’s the easiest way to establish physical contact.
Steve looks up at him, earnest as Eddie’s ever seen him. “You’re totally, completely, and one-hundred percent sure you want to do this?”
Eddie tries and fails not to roll his eyes and groan.
“Like I said, I am sure, so please, for the love of all that is good and holy, do not make me beg you to fuck me,” Eddie says, grateful that his voice isn’t shaking like the rest of his body.
(or: Eddie tries not to lose his ever loving mind when his best friend Steve offers to take his virginity)

Summary
"She’s taking a sip, dry and sharp on her tongue, when the doorbell rings a floor above, and she hears distantly Steve’s open delight, Robin, Dustin, back from the shit I won’t understand?
I’m a lesbian, Nancy thinks, taking another sip of wine. Eddie clinks his glass against hers and sneaks a slice of chorizo from Steve’s chopping board, tapping a finger against the side of his nose, shh, don’t tell, the way normal couples keep their secrets, the way honesty is earned and not borne on the back of a lie.
Love is a battle I can win. Nancy turns to face the door."
// Christmas 1994. Nancy faces her fears.

Summary
Steve is looking at him, awed. He stares at Eddie’s ribs like they have the answers to all his questions etched between them. Like there’s revelation written in between the fading whorls where his wounds knit together over the past year.
He reaches out, soft and slow- the way you approach a wounded dog. Don’t bite me, his hands are saying- I want to show you gentle touch.
---
one year post-vecna, and eddie's trying really hard to repress his feelings for steve. he'd probably be very successful at that, if it weren't for steve interfering every single step of the way

Summary
"Ugh, Harrington, you’re really… You’re so horribly straight, aren’t you."
"What’s that supposed to mean?!"
"It means…" Eddie drops his hands and takes a deep breath and when he looks at Steve his face looks… different. None of that usual Eddie attitude. In a voice much softer, eyes cast low, he says, "It means, when a guy tells another guy that they’re gay, it’s often because… Jesus fucking Christ." He sighs, rubs his hand over his jeans, swallows. "I’m into you. That’s all."
*
It's the summer after Vecna, everyone is figuring their shit out, and Steve learns that Eddie Munson is apparently into him.
