Recovery - Steddie ♡

Chapter Eleven

Eddie slowly woke up to the sound of birds singing outside the window. He went to get up but realised he was stuck under something. He glanced down and smiled as he took in the sight of Steve fast asleep on his chest. He remembered last night and was glad it hadn't been a dream. He was also glad he was the first one to wake up so he could enjoy this moment for a little while incase Steve woke up and it turned out to be a mistake.

But little did he know that he wasn't the first one to wake up. In fact, Steve had been awake for the past half hour, just listening to Eddies cute little snore and listening to his heart beat. Steve was glad he hadn't drunk too much. He remembered everything. How it felt to kiss Eddie and how his stomach felt like it was full of butterflies.

"Are you watching me sleep, Munson?" He asked without opening his eyes. He chuckled as he felt Eddie jump a little. "I know I'm cute but no need to cream your pants."

Eddie blushed furiously and slapped the side of Steves head lightly. "You sneaky fucker!"

Steve finally opened his eyes and looked up at the doe eyed man. "Well, it's hard to sleep with a motor boat in my ear all night!" He teased, laughing as Eddie rolled his eyes.

Steve slowly pushed himself up off of Eddie and sat down beside him. Once Steve had moved Eddie sat up and rested against the head board. He broke away from Steves gaze and stared at the ceiling, deep in thought. The other man seemed to be okay with them waking up together but he was still worried Steve would suddenly change his mind and turn on him.

"What are you thinking about, Ed?"

"Do you remember last night?"

Steve smirked before quickly making a confused face. "What happened last night? Don't tell me I puked! Oh no! Did I embarrass myself in front of Nancy?"

Eddies face fell and he felt his heart drop. He was expecting it but it didn't hurt any less to hear. He felt the bed start to shake a little and looked in Steves direction.

"You fucking asshole!" He shouted, picking up a pillow and hitting Steve. Steve who laughing so hard the bed was moving.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" He choked out, his laughter dying down. "I couldn't stop myself."

"You, Steve Harrington, are a dick." Eddie groaned as he pushed past Steve and got up from bed. He didn't get very far when he felt Steve grab his armed and pull him back. Eddie landed with his back on the bed and suddenly Steve was straddling him.

"I know that was a dick move but I want to talk. I saw that look on your face earlier. What's wrong? You can tell me!"

Eddie gazed up and Steve and let out a sigh before speaking. "I was worried you would wake up and regret it." He looked away with embarrassment.

"Hey, dingus. Look at me." Steve waited for Eddie to look at him and when he finally did Steve leant down to place a soft kiss on his lips. "I regret nothing."

"Really?"

"Yes, really. Do you like me, Eddie? And not just as a friend."

Eddie brought a hand up to Steves face and gazed up at the bouncy haired man. "Yeah, Steve. I like you."

"Good, because I like you too. Now, I was thinking maybe we could go for a picnic by the lake later?"

"You think you're ready to finally go near the lake?"

Steve breathed in deeply before replying. He was still nervous about going near lakes. "I don't know but I need to get over this fear at some point."

Eddie nodded his head in agreement. "Then lets go to the lake, pretty boy!"

"Okay! Wanna help me sort some breakfast out?" Steve asked, climbing off of Eddie and helping him up.

"I was actually going to shower. Unless you want to join me, Harrington?" Eddie wiggles his eyebrows suggestively, smirking when he saw Steves cheeks turn slightly red.

"I might just take you up on that offer some day." Steve winked at Eddie before leaving the room to go and sort some food out. He listened to Eddie head to the bathroom to shower. Smiling to himself he started to hum one of the songs Eddie had made him listen to. Instead of cooking bacon and eggs he decided to do a fruit salad instead and got to chopping up strawberries, banana and grapes. He wondered if Eddie would want vanilla yoghurt or strawberry.

Steve was so caught up in preparing breakfast that he didn't hear the shower stop nor did he hear the soft footsteps coming up behind him.

"You need to let me cook breakfast for you one day, Harrington."

Steve yelped and turned round to see Eddie in nothing but a towel. He licked his lips as he took in the sight before him. The towel hung low on Eddies hips and he could feel his dick twitch with excitement.

"Whats the matter, Stevie? Like what you see?"

"Eddie, I swear to god if you don't go and put some clothes on now I won't be able to control myself." Steve warned, taking slow steps towards. In seconds he was infront of the curly haired man and he pushed him up against the wall. He leaned in until their noses brushed and he could feel Eddies warm breath.

"Maybe I don't want you to control yourself." Eddie whispered back, glancing down at Steves lips hungrily before looking back up. He felt Steves hands grab his waist, pulling him closer so there was no space between them.

"Oh Eddie, I've been thinking about this since that first morning we woke up in bed together."

Eddies eyes widened with surprise. "Are you serious? I thought it was just me."

"Are you kidding? I woke up with a boner that morning. I thought you saw it, freaked out and ran out of the room."

"Is that why you disappeared?"

Steve nodded, licking his lips again. Before Eddie could say anything else he captured the mans lips with his own. It was a slow kiss at first but quickly turned intense.

Eddie buried his hands in Steves hair, moaning as Steves tongue traced his bottom lip. He opened his mouth and felt the mans tongue brush against his.

They were both so wrapped up in each other that they barely heard the phone ringing. They carried on kissing, both getting more and more turned on by the second. The phone eventually stopped ringing but a few moments later it started to ring again. The pair reluctantly pulled apart.

"This isn't over, Munson." Steve murmured into Eddies ear and placed a kiss on his neck before he pushed away and went over to phone.

"Hello?"

"Stevie!" Robins voice blasted through the speaker a little too loudly, making Steve wince.

"You better have a good reason for calling, Buckley!"

"Calm your boobs, Harrington!" She chuckled down the phone, doing her best impression of Steve from the night before. "Wait, did I interrupt something? Please tell me I did!"

Steve rolled his eyes and glanced at Eddie who was still leaning up against the wall, his towel slowly starting to fall down. Sadly, before it could, Eddie grabbed hold of it and wrapped it round himself tighter.

"Can we talk about this later?"

"Fine but you better tell me everything!"

"Yeah, yeah. Whatever. Bye Buckley!" He hung up before she could say goodbye.

He made his way back over to Eddie, leaning in to kiss him again but he frowned when the man moved away from him with a smirk on his face.

"As much as I would like to kiss you right now, Steve, I think we should have a proper talk first."

Steve nodded in agreement. "Yeah, you're right, man. Orrrrrrrr we could finish what we started."

"If you can catch me!" Eddie yelled before racing to his room. He shut the door and locked it just before Steve could reach him. He chuckled as he heard Steve groan in frustration from behind the door.

"This isn't over, you little tease!" Steve grumbled as he headed for the bathroom.
