Slow and Steddie /// stranger things one shots. Steve Harrington x Eddie Munson

7.  Distractions pt. 2 🥰🏳️‍🌈✨

Steve's POV

"Hey! I'm not a stalker! Your just really god danm distracting..." Eddie said as I reached the top of the stairs.

I laughed and crossed my arms looking down at him from the top step. "That's debatable. Have you really been watching me since I had that fight with Tommy?" I asked, leaning back up and walking in the direction of the bathroom.

"We'll that depends, is that when you started sitting at that lunch table all alone?" He asked, following me down the hallway.

"Kind of...? It's a long story..." I mumbled, pushing open the bathroom door and looking under the sink.

"Well I'm gonna be here all day, so you might as well start now." He said, leaning back on the counter as I took out the Cotten balls and rubbing alcohol.

I sighed. "Well... I'm guessing you know most of it, me and Tommy got into a fight after he did some dumb shit to embarrass Nance." I said, trying to find the band aids.

"Nance as in....?" He asked. "As in my Ex girlfriend." I responded, taking out a box of Scooby do band aids... listen- it's all I have right now.

.... Ok that's a lie. I just think he would look funny.

"I was a part of it... it was awful of me, I know that now. I was just so angry then... Johnathan gave me a good smack in the face for it which I more than deserved .... I was being a complete Dick..." I mumbled, looking in the mirror and sweeping my hair back with one hand to get a good look at my injuries.

"God.... That's really bad..." I said, tilting my face to the side and trying to figure out how many bandaids I would need.

"Yeah no shit. I told you the broken nose wasn't fine." Eddie said, sliding off the counter and gently grabbing my jaw.

"He really did a number on your pretty face...." He said. I reached up and swept some hair out of his face, trying to look at his nose and the scratches from falling on the concrete.

"You don't look great either." I mumbled, tapping his nose, which he flinched at. "Oh yeah... definitely bruised. I'm gonna get you some ice." I said, grabbing the stuff andwalking to the door.

I beckoned him out the door. He nodded and followed me down the hallway.

"I eventually apologized to both Johnathan and Nancy. I bought Johnathan a camera because I broke his. Although he doesn't know it was from me- Me and Nancy got back together, but soon I found out she thought I was bullshit, and our relationship was bullshit. So we had a fight. I was going to her house to apologize-" I shrugged as I opened my door.

"Apologize for what?" Eddie asked. I looked off an shrugged. "... honestly I don't know. Being a douche I guess? She's never really been the one to make first moves so I thought if I apologized, we could talk it through..." I said, scratching the back of my head.

"But, I got to her house, and found out she was out. With Johnathan. Again." I sighed. "And then Dustin roped me into some shit-" "Dustin?" "Oh he's one of these kids I-...babysit? Anyways I let her go. I was done trying to fix it. She wanted nothing to do with me... and I wasn't going to chase her around like a lost puppy anymore. That leads us to now. Still getting picked on by Tommy and making out with strangers in my house."

"Danm I've really been downgraded to stranger Huh...." Eddie mumbled, making a 'tsk' sound. We finally walked into my room, and I sighed and pointed at the bed. "Alright. Sit down." I said as he walked past me. "you trynna get me into bed Harrington?" He asked as he sat down.

I felt my face flush. "I mean I'm not complaining-" "whatever Eddie, I'm going to get you an ice pack for your nose. Don't move an inch. Ok?" I asked, leaving once he nodded.
