Chapter Nineteen

Steve, Joyce and Robin had to force the kids to get some sleep. All four boys were tucked up in the spare room. Will and Mike sharing the bed while Lucas and Dustin shared a blow up mattress on the floor. The three adults were stood in the doorway watching them all sleep peacefully after 4 nights of barely any sleep.

Steve turned to the women. "You two should try and get some sleep too."

"What if the others come back though?" Joyce asked, not liking the idea of sleep even though she needed it.

"If they come back we will all know, okay? But we've all barely slept in days."

Joyce huffed but knew Steve was right. She also didn't want to look like crap when Hopper came  back so she agreed and went to the living room where the couch was set up and another blow up mattress. Robin and Steve made their way to the kitchen where Jonathan and Eddie were sat chatting, both sipping on hot chocolate. Robin said goodnight to them all before going to the living room to take over the sofa. Jonathan nodded at both Steve and Eddie before following her. He was sharing the blow up mattress with his mum.

Steve walked over to where his boyfriend was sat and wrapped his arms around him from behind. "Wanna sneak outside and make out under the stars?" He whispered in Eddies ear, nibbling gently on his ear lobe.

Eddie closed his eyes as he enjoyed the feeling of Steves warm breath on his neck. "If I ever say no to that question I give you permission to shoot me!" Eddie replied, getting up and placing a quick kiss on his boyfriends lips before taking his hand and leading him outside and over to the bench.

Steve sat down and expected Eddie to sit beside him but instead the long haired man straddled his lap, pinning him to the bench. "This is a dangerous position, Munson. Don't start something we can't finish while the others are here."

"I promise I'll be good, pretty boy!" Eddie smirked as he leaned down and captured Steves lips with his. He traced his tongue along his boyfriends lower lip and Steve eagerly opened his mouth to him.

Even though Eddie promised he would be good he had a hard time not grinding against Steve. All he wanted to do was take him right there on the bench. Steve was also having a hard time containing himself as he pulled Eddie down further and attacked his neck with soft kisses. He smirked as the doe eyed man moaned in his ear.

"If you keep that up I definitely won't be able to stop myself, Harrington." Eddie growled.

Steve relectantly stopped and the two went back to kissing, soft moans escaping them as their tongues brushed against each other.

Suddenly there was a bright red light and what sounded like an explosion which caused the men to fall off the bench. Eddie instantly forgot where he was and was pulled into a memory he didn't want to be in. Red, lightening filled skies full of bats. Beside him, Steve was in the same boat except he was approaching Dustin holding a lifeless Eddie.

Everyone ran out into the night, Mike shining a torch that immediately landed on the two men on the cold ground. One was screaming as if he were in pain while the other was staring at the ground sobbing. Robin and Dustin ran to them, unsure of what to do.

"Steve? Steve? Wake up! Please Steve, you're scaring us!" Robin shouted as she shook him by the shoulders, trying to get him to look at her.

"Eddie! Eddie, you're okay man! You're okay!" Dustin grabbed Eddies face and the man immediately stopped screaming. After a couple of minutes he was ripped from the memory and his eyes fell on the young boys face. He was breathing heavily but he was relieved he wasn't actually back in the Upside Down getting eaten. He heard sobbing and turned to see his boyfriend sobbing in Robins arms. She seemed to be having a hard time getting him to calm down. Eddie patted Dustin on the shoulder before rushing over to his boyfriend.
