Steve hummed to the lyrics to Girls On Film as it quietly played in the store, waiting for a customer to walk in. It was a Tuesday, Family Video is never busy on these days; especially so early into the day. Steve had never been so eager to greet a stranger. After what seemed like infinity, the shop bell ringed. Steve looked up from his shoes to see Eddie fucking Munson grinning back at him. That stupid grin.. Steve shook the thought off, crossing his arms over his chest, a smile tugging at his lips.

"Always a displeasure to see you, Munson" Steve joked.

"You too, Harrington." Eddie retorted, that shit eating grin that made Steve feel so weak in the knees just growing wider. Eddie slipped the other boy a vhs, which happened to be 2 days overdue. Steve was a little disappointed, but whatever. He examined it. Re-animator. "Herbert West has a very good head on his shoulders — And another one in a dish on his desk!" Steve furrowed his brows, but shrugged it off, pocketing it for now.

"What? Too scary for you, princess?" Eddie chuckled at the face Steve made looking at it.

"Never seen it." Steve shrugged, ignoring the creeping blush on his face. Eddie to let out an over dramatic, joking gasp. Before he could reply Robin came bursting in from the back room.

"Eddie!" She smiled wide at seeing the metalhead. They've became really close after everything with vecna, Steve was a little jealous.

"Robin" Eddie nodded, opening his arms for a hug, which she complied to. Steve watched the encounter unfold. Robin smiled happily as she lifted herself onto the counter, Steve leaning over it.

"Well I oughta get out of your alls hair" Eddie hummed, his eyes scanning the store one last time. His smile coming back as he made eye contact with the two. "I'll be back, pretty boy." He winked towards Steve, "I'll see you, Robin.

"Bye Eddie!" She said, Steve choosing to stay quiet. Both watching as Eddie walked off.

"Hey, Rob, mind dealin' with this?" Steve waves the returned tape in front of Robins face.

"Yeah, sure." She snatches it away from him, Steve pats a firm hand on her shoulder as a thank you. He quickly finds the bathroom, locking the door behind himself. He sat down on the lid of the toilet, face in hands. Why did Eddie make him feel this way?
