Eddie let Steve braid his hair. It was strange, something he hadn't let anyone else do but was enjoying the feeling.

Steve's hands moved quickly the separate parts and quickly began to carefully place one part over the other and then under.

It didn't take very long but it felt nice. Eddie rarely did his hair, he was a let the hair be free type person. He had a hair tie on him incase his hair got in his face at work or something, but he rarely used it.

Steve seemed to enjoy doing his hair, for the past few weeks he did it every morning they spent together. Rather it was braids or something else he did it quickly. He was also making Eddie actually get good hair products because he screamed when he saw the three in one bottle.

Eddie didn't seem the problem but he didn't argue. He liked when Steve smiled and played with his hair.

"Your hair is so soft. See this is what happens when you use decent products." Steve tugged his hair.

Eddie's heart pounded. He liked that more than he cared to admit but now was not the time for that.

"Are you saying you didn't like my hair before?" He faked a wounded voice.

"No. No not saying that. I love your hair in whatever way." Steve laughed. "But now it's extra soft."

"You're a dork."

"You would be the expert."

They laughed and Eddie felt lighter than he ever had. There was something so warm and comforting about this. About being with Steve. It made his heart feel like it was going to burst.

"What's your plans this weekend big boy?" Eddie had some ideas for how they could spend the weekend, depending if Steve was free.

"I have the next three days off, which is rare but I'm not complaining. What were you thinking?"

Perfect. Eddie smirked and turned to face Steve. He wrapped himself around Steve and kissed him.

"I have our next activity planned, however its one you might say no to, you'll see tomorrow."

Steve's eyes were wide. "That sounds terrifying Munson."

"That's what I was going for Harrington. But I have another thing tonight. And I was wondering if you would come with me?"

"What is it?" The fear was gone from Steve's face, replaced with curiosity.

"Uncle Wayne is having his new girlfriend and her kid over for dinner, finally ready to introduce us. And well he said I could invite you."

He might've been nervous about meeting his uncle's girlfriend. This was the woman who made Wayne so happy and he wanted her to like him. For his uncle's sake.

Wayne must've known he was nervous and told him to bring Steve to dinner.

"I'll be there. I want to know who Wayne's mystery lady is."
