so here we are, me being high and Steve also being high laying in my bed next to each other. As we blab about things sober people wouldn't talk about. And then Steve says something I wouldn't expect from him

"you know Eddie you have really pretty eyes. And pretty hair, and you just are really pretty." Steve says in such a soft tone.

"I mean thank you, Harrington that's very nice of you to say." I'm not as giggly as I usually am when I am high.

"I could just smuther you in hugs and kisses." Steve starts to day dream and says things he probably doesn't mean and probably won't remember in a few hours.

"Can I cuddle you Eddie" Steve says in this cutest little voice I have ever heard.

(A/N similar to the one when Steve has the bear in season one with Nancy.)

I start to become my normal high giggling self.

"Of course!" I say excited and honestly on a whole new high.

Even though I'm a little older than Steve. He's taller than me maybe by an inch or two. Which makes cuddling complicated. Because he wanted to cuddle me. Not me cuddle him. Before I can complete my thought he immediately scoots closer to me and lies on my chest. And I wrap my arms around his torso and he scoots up just a tiny bit. Enough so that his head is resting on the edge of my shoulder and my head resting on his head. And him tightly hugging me.
I could stay like this forever.
But that's the bad part. He's high, I'm high, he's straight and I'm gay. I don't know if he's gay. But I doubt it.

As our heartbeats collide, and our breathes breathe in the same pattern. I feel at peace for once. Not hating myself for being gay. I wonder how Steve will take it once he finds out. I hope to not cross that path anytime soon.

"come on eddie, let's fall asleep. I'm tireddd" Steve says halfway yawing through most of that.

I close my eyes and think of a place where I could be free and happily gay. But then I realize that what I want is already in front of me. With Steve. Let's just hope he's gay.

As I slowly drift off to sleep I can feel Steve snuggle closer to me throughout the night.

I wake up and to my surprise Steve is still just laying there next to me a bit less cuddled but still very close to me still soundly sleeping. I check my alarm clock since my watch was drenched back during the time when Patrick died from Vecna's curse. It read 7:30 AM. It's Saturday I'm pretty sure. I tried to get up out of bed to make something for breakfast not only for me but for Steve. But Steve doesn't loosen his grip on me. So I just lie there cuddled next to Steve "the hair" Harrington.

We lay there together for a while until I hear a knock at my bedroom door. "Hey edd- ie." my uncle is halfway into his sentence when he stops mid way and looks at me and Steve. Steve is oblivious to what's going on since he's asleep. But looking adorable while being asleep. "Sorry to interrupt. But uhm I'll be outa town for the next few days. Boss is putting me in a different wear-house out in Illinois for a bit." My uncle says quite awkwardly stating that he just walked into his nephews room to see him cuddling with some random dude.

"Well uh I hope you have a great day eddie." He says while slowly closing my bedroom door. He's been acting a bit different since everything that's been going on lately.  But honestly I don't blame him. My thoughts are interrupted by Steve beginning to wake up.  
    "Good morning sleepy head." I whisper
"Good morning?" He whispers back, he's still cuddled next To me. I don't think he realizes that we are indeed cuddling with each other.

"Hey Eddie. Why are we cuddled next to each other?" Steve asks Me   Atleast he doesn't sound pissed. He sounds upset though.

"Uhh well, we got really high last night and you started saying how pretty I was, and then you asked to cuddle. And I agreed to it, and I guess we just stayed like that the whole night." I quickly just threw  that out there, because it's nerve racking actually. Cuddling with someone you aren't supposed to like because you two got high.

"I'm I'm sorry but I have to go, it's 8:30 I've got work in 30 minutes." Steve quickly gets out of my bed and starts going towards the door. Picking up his dirty clothes and his shoes.

I quickly follow him before he could manage to leave.

"you can keep the shirt!" I yell out

"THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING EDDIE." He yells back

fuck. I have a stupid little crush on  Steve Harrington.

Steve's pov:

that was fucking awkward, I'm so awkward. Why am I thinking about Eddie. I don't even like him. Hell I barely even know him. But then I get High once! And I cuddled with Eddie the freak Munson.  This is ridiculous.  I Steve Harrington, A straight guy.  Cannot fall for one of Eddie Munsons tricks. Is Eddie even gay? Why do I even care.  I take a breath in and out trying to clear my mind from Eddie Munson. And yet it didn't work.

As I pull up to family video. I grab my shoes and my pants. This Black Sabbath tee shirt will have to do for now. But as I'm grabbing my things. A new thought appears in my head. More so like a statement. I didn't have any nightmares last night. None not a single one. I don't know if it was the weed. Or Eddie. Probably the weed. I don't know. But one thing I did know was that I didn't want Eddie Munson to be the reason I didn't  have nightmares.  Imagine all the rumors and  antics that would arise if I said that Eddie the freak Munson took away my nightmares. God I sound like a child.

"Hey dingus glad to see you here today. Oh and nice outfit." Robin said with her usual smile.

" hah, thanks. I'll be right back I'm going to change."

"Who's shirt is that?" Robin questions me.

Fuck. I can't tell her that it's Eddie's.

"Uh. I'm not saying." I blabber to her. I can't let this continue on. I cannot see Eddie again.

I walk into the bathroom and put on my pants that aren't that soaked anymore. Just barely dry. And my sneakers.  And my family video vest. And walk back to the front.

Saturdays where pretty slow in the movies and stuff after around 12 pm. Our busiest day is probably Friday. Or Sunday. Crazy I know.

As time passes. Robin and I have done some things like Sort out the the Romance movies that needed to be put back on the shelf. And just basically chilled all day.

Then that one question came back.

"so you never told me who that shirt was from, wanna tell me?"

"I-"

"Mine, the shirt is mine."

Eddie said appearing out of nowhere coming out from behind the horror movies. I guess I hadn't noticed him.

"Uh uh hi Eddie, when did you get here?" I want to crawl in a hole and die at this point.

"Oh about 10 15 ish minutes ago." Eddie says with a smirk.

"Oh and about 15 minutes ago, what were we talking about?"

"About how it's hard for you to keep your dick in your pants because you've fallen hard for some guy."

"Oh well uhm damn." I say as I sink underneath the Counter

"I'm kidding Harrington. I don't actually know what you guys where talking about. But anyway I'm here to return the great chainsaw massacre and Friday the thirteenth IV Jason lives."

"Are you thinking of checking out any others?"
Robin says trying to get a conversation going

"Yeah maybe a comedy this time. Or horror again. I've got a friend that's probably going to come over and watch them with me sometime." He says. Glancing over at me.

"Oh well then I'll let you check him out Steve. I'll be in the back." Robin says while dashing away.

(A/N thank you guys so much for reading these past few chapters! There probably won't be another chapter until later tonight around 9/10 pm standard time. Because I'm going to the beach tonight with my mom and her friend. So this chapter had to be cut short! I have like 4 hours to get ready so I might start up on the next chapter!  I'd love to hear what you want to happen! So please tell me in the comments!)
