Steve and Eddie were hanging out at Steves house because they were bored and had nothing to do. Eddie found a sketch book and some pencils and started drawing but he sat in a really weird place. Steve sat on the couch while Eddie sat right in front of him. There was enough space on the couch for him but he decided not to take it. Steve got up while Eddie continued to draw and came back with.. nothing? no that can't be right. Whats happening? what did he get?. Steve sat back down again, Eddie, not looking up from his drawing, felt something. Steve actually got 2 hair ties & a hair brush and started styling Eddie hair in different ways. Munson smiled as he drew while Steve played and messed around with his hair. Normally Eddie hates people touching his hair but theres something about Harrington that makes him feel things that doesn't happen with other people.

Eddie finished one of his drawings and held it above his head so Steve could see.

"Gimme a pencil" Steve asks

Eddie gives him a pencil and on top of the drawing Eddie made of Venca, he drew a little top hat and they laughed about it.

Steve continued playing with Eddies hair until he ran out of styles and Eddie ran out of drawings.

"You have beautiful hair" Steve says brushing it through.

"Thanks Stevie"

"Hey can I talk to you about something?"

"Sure"

"I haven't slept in like 2 days. Im exhausted but I can't sleep"

"Oh shit do you wanna sleep over tonight? you might have separation anxiety"

"I don't want to be a burden"

"I really don't mind and who knows you might get some sleep"

Eddie smiles and hugs Steve. The phone rings that scares them both but Steve went up to get it and as soon as he left Eddie starfished on the couch. Steves answers the phone and talks with someone. Eddie almost fell asleep but snapped out of it when Steve hung up.

"hey bab- Eds are you tired?"

"What were you about to call me?"

"Nothing"

"It didn't sound like nothing. Is there something you wanna talk about?" Eddie said in a teasing manner.

"Shut up are you tired or not?"

Eddie shook his head no but in reality he was really tired.

"Well im gonna do the dishes so if you want to change you know where my room is, pick something comfortable"

"but all you're clothes look like old man clothes" Eddie teased.

"shut up and go"

"fine mom"

"good boy"

"I'm not your damn dog"

"I've made you my bitch"

Steve burst out laughing making Eddie laugh a bit but Eddie ran upstairs and tripped a bit.

"Be careful fucking insane bastard I feel like his fucking mom" Steve muttered to himself as he washed plates.

Eddie looked around Steve room a bit before seeing what was in his cloest. He pulled out some gray sweatpants and a shirt. When he came down, Steve was listening to music and Eddie couldn't help but smile.

"Oh Eddie, baby, won't you come to my arms tonight?
I beg and plead you, please succumb to my charms tonight" Steve sang with the music.

Eddie crept up behind Steve and put his arms around his waist. Steve flinched from the sudden contact but continued washing cups. He had a party the day before so he had quite a bit to wash.

"I like this song" Eddie said resting his head on Steves shoulder.

"I can see why"

"Steve"

"yeah?"

"do you hate me?"

"why would I hate you?"

"I mean I'm kinda annoying.. and I used a lot of your paper for drawing.. and you always look out for me like a mom.. I stole one of your beers-"

"You stole one of my beers?"

"yes now shut up im explaining something. And I dont know, not many people like me so I just want to know if you hate me"

Steve dries his hands before turning around and hugging Eddie. Munsons face was buried in Steves chest.

"I don't hate you Eds I don't mind you using paper for drawings, you're not annoying if anything you're just hard not to notice, I look out for you because someone has to be there for you when you do your usual stupid shit that could get you killed and I don't mind that person being me but at the end of the day you're Eddie and that stupid shit you do makes you you and even though it drives me crazy I love you for who you are. I love your smile, your constant teasing, your charm that somehow works, your personality and your whole "bad boy" kinda style. Your a freak but your my freak and I wouldn't trade you for the world"

Eddie tilted Steves chin up and kissed him. Steve was caught off guard but melted into the kiss. They had a small makeout session before Eddie pulled away and hugged Harrington.

"I love you.. so so much"

"I love you too Eds.. Fuckin hell its already 12:30"

"I'm going to bed" Steve said walking out of the kitchen.

Eddie followed close behind stretching. They went upstairs and Eddie collapsed on Steves bed. Steve bed was big for one person and Eddie always wondered why he had such a big bed but never said anything about it. Munson fell asleep almost immediately. While Steve was changing he eyed Munson making sure he won't wake up. Steve got into the bed trying not to wake up Eddie as he did but Eddie sat up really quickly making Steve jump a bit. Eddie started patting himself down as if trying to look for his wallet or something.

"Hey you ok?"

"I forgot my favourite ring at home"

They both looked at each other confused then started laughing.

"Good night"

"Night"

Eddie put his arms around Steves waist and pulled him closer to him. Steve normally isn't one cor physical touch but he loves when Eddie hugs him. They fell asleep cuddling and Eddie slept for 12+ hours to the point Steve thought he was dead. Steve stayed with Eddie for long periods of time and only leaves if it's absolutely necessary because he didn't want Eddie to wake up and be alone.

At the end of the day Steve has his Eddie and Eddie has his Steve maybe we all have a Steve or Eddie waiting for us, Just wait for them to find you. Its worth a try, why not?
