A new years kiss wish

The cold December air took over Hawkins.
  Snow falling throughout the Slowly coming together town, Steve and Eddie hadn't been in the best of places with jobs becoming a problem in the new environment, so Steve was thinking of moving... to Indianapolis. And Eddie wasn't so sure of the idea.

   It was December 29th 1986 and Steve was walking over to the break room of family video, the pay had gone done but it was decent ish. He slumped down onto the couch and picked up a magazine.and it read

   A new years kiss wish, a gift that anyone would love. (turn to page 69 for more details)

"It's probably for women, eh what's the use."

He threw it back on the toffee shade coffee table.
Maybe I'll Call Dustin, he might know what to do.

Closing time was lurking just before the counter and Steve Harrington decided to stop by the Henderson residence.

He closed up shop and wallowed out onto the cold freezing streets of dead Hawkins.

He cranked his frost covered not so shiny BMW
No music that he liked was airing so he turned it down all the way to 0

he sped down the now empty road, trying to remember the non destroyed route to the Henderson house.

Maybe he and Eddie just weren't meant to be?
Maybe his parents where right, Hawkins just isn't the best place to find love. His parents didn't actually say that he is just making things up to justify what has happened.

He pulled into the driveway and parked his car.

"God Henderson has to be home."

the snow crumpled between his feet as he felt barley any hope, maybe seasonal depression wasn't just something his mother made up on a whim.

He knocked on the cold hard door as a middle aged Ms. Henderson opened the door.

"Oh Steve,what a surprise that you're here." She said in a warm tone,despite the cold weather

  "I came to see Dustin, is he home?" he said trying his best to seem enthusiastic

  "Erm, not at the moment actually. I believe he's playing dnd at Micheals house?" She said not so sure where her son was at.

"Oh ok, thanks again ms. Henderson, merry Christmas."

  "Merry Christmas,Steve."

He turned away as the door closed behind him. just his luck.

He slowly trudged to his car door. And opened it was no force.

He sped home, yet he took the long way home that just happened to pass Eddie's road.

How weird would it be to glance into a strangers eyes and remember that they weren't always a stranger? They slowly became one, slipping away from your touch.

he longed for Eddie's touch.

             But it wasn't his anymore...

The ice made Steve's car swerve on his Steep driveway.
And steve too, he just slipped

maybe it was too soon maybe the world will crash and burn just like his relationship?

He thought upon it. And decided not to begin a war in his already devastated mind.

He slips the key from his pocket and unlocks it. And of course his parents weren't home.

He closes the door behind him and walks towards the stairs. Heading up to his bedroom he stumbles apon one of Eddie's shirts. He had left it when they went to the lake together.

I hope he doesn't forget about me.

He threw himself on his messy bed and slept until his body could not sleep anymore. He slept for a day. He'd wake up of course but he'd forcefully fall back asleep.

And when he awoke he called Dustin,

"heyyy, Dustin?"
   "Yeah, Steve, wassup."
"Eddie and I have had a rough time, and I dunno what to do or say."

  "How about taking him to do something related to the new years kiss wish."

"That thing in the pop magazine?"

  "Yup. It's like taking them to where you first met or something and then kissing them. Or making something special out of it, I can't do it with Susie since we live so far away."

"Oh, I might do that. Thanks Dustin."

     "No problem Steve. Hey you should come by mikes house we're having a fun session next week and we'd love for you to be there."

I knew that i wouldn't be able to be there next week. Because Eddie would be there, and it'd hurt to much. That's just if I don't fix things with Eddie.

I'm going to stop being a pussy and I'm going to make things right.

He drove his car down the dirty old dirt road that Eddie lived on,

The snow covered dirt didn't look very appealing on his car nor on him.

He gathered up the courage to get out of his car.

And so he walked to the door and knocked.

Eddie opened the door and he  was wearing half a hand cuff and a tight Knit black tank top and sloppily half un buttoned ripped jeans.  And his hair was all messy.

  But that wasn't all Steve saw. A guy in the back shirtless. and a pack of Trojans. Eddie was about to have sex with some random guy

  "Steve, man you can't be here right now."
"Eddie what the.. hell." His voice began to break

  "It's not what it looks like Steven, I, I didn't want to have sex with him."

"happy fucking new years Eddie"
