"Woo! Party at Steve's! Dustin shouted loudly, hands in the air. Steve was sitting on the couch, legs crossed and rubbing his eyes. He was thoroughly regretting allowing the kids to come over. "As much as I love you all dearly, can you all please shut the hell up?" Steve shouted. 

"Wow, someone's pissed." Dustin said sourly. Mike and Will were in the back seeing who could make the best impression of El, with El herself judging and laughing along wholeheartedly. Lucas and Max were cuddling together and watching a movie. Teen love; something he wanted to go back on, not fake dating. Dustin was a lone rider, taking it in account to annoy Steve to the best of his ability. Erica couldn't come because she was grounded, which was a shame, really, because it would even it all out. 

Eddie emerged from the shadows/the kitchen carrying pizza boxes. "Hey kids, got some free pizza. Workers discount." 

"Let's go! Told you it was a good idea to work there!" Dustin said, taking credit and a pizza slice. El lazily took a pizza slice using her telekinesis, Lucas got one for him and for Max, and Will and Mike didn't take one; they were too busy bickering on who won. Steve stepped out of the room once he saw Vickie arrive.

"Steve, what's-" 

"See ya!" He yelled out mockingly. She stuck up her middle finger.

He walked outside to try and find Robin or Eddie.

"...Robin, I'm serious, it's real this time! How am I going to tell him? He's freak." He heard Eddie mention before barging out. If he had better control over his body he would have stayed inside, listening.

They looked at him and Eddie played with his rings. "Uh.. how much did you hear?" 

Steve decided it would be best to lie. "Nothing.. why?"

"Oh, nothing, sorry!" Eddie said and quickly shuffled back into the house.

He gave a "Tell me everything." Look to Robin. She sheepishly smiled and shrugged, then followed Eddie into the house as well. Knowing he wasn't going to get any answers from either of them, he decided to give up for tonight and just try and gather evidence himself; which was more or less like spying on them and listening to their phone calls. 

"Uh huh.. okay! Thanks, Rob. Are you sure he doesn't-" Eddie was talking to Robin in a different room. Again. Steve had been walking back to the room with the kids and Vickie and they were still talking. Probably about him.

"You guys really need to close the door when gossiping. Spill it." Steve demanded. Robin gained composure and smirked at him, nudging Eddie with her elbow. He turned red and hissed at her. Steve raised an eyebrow and waited, hands crossed. 

"Uh.. well.." Eddie started, constantly looking back at Robin and fidgeting with his rings. He was surprisingly quiet as well, which was something new to Steve. But then again, he had gone through some shit.. and Steve didn't know too much about him.

"I.. have to leave early, sorry for not telling you, bye, mwah!" Eddie said in a rush, blowing a kiss to Steve and running out with his jacket. 

Robin face palmed and let out an exasperated groan.

There was now another child to deal with.
