Do It For Him

20

All concert long Eddie kept thinking about what Steve said, he just wanted him. That was all Eddie wanted too.

Steve was actually allowed to sit with Dustin during this concert, which made Steve feel so much better. He felt like Eddie actually was calming down a bit, letting him actually do normal things, Steve was honestly proud of himself for showing that he could behave enough that Eddie was willing to do it as well.

Steve wrapped an arm around Dustin while the boys sang and the crowd cheered. "You're happy with this life?"

"Really happy," Dustin smiled brightly, he leaned his head against Steve's shoulder. "I am really happy here. I'm glad he has the means to take care of us both."

Steve lowered his eyes for a moment before they finished another set and brought the microphone to his face. Sweat dripped down his face, his bare arms on full display. Steve let out a soft grunt, Eddie looked extremely hot in this lighting. "This one is for my family, my Uncle Wayne who is back home and to the family that is sitting out there in the crowd, Stevie and Dustin."

Steve felt his face grow flush as the camera panned to them and their faces were blasted across the stadium. Dustin waved and people cheered before the camera panned back to Eddie and the band started up their song. Steve sighed softly, Eddie was making some strides, at least in an attempt to keep him satisfied, he was honestly okay with that at this point. If Dustin was happy, Steve was happy even if it was forced in a way. He was still at least happy to have Dustin in his life this way and that the boy was happy to be alive, that he wasn't worried about money or if he was going to have to work every day until he was ninety because he couldn't afford even the simplest of apartments. Steve squeezed Dustin tightly, holding him close while Eddie sang for them.

Steve couldn't lie, the song was gorgeous and Eddie was amazing. The way he glided around the stage and hyped up the crowd even in the lowest moments of a song.

Steve was mystified and wondered why he didn't see Eddie like this before now. Why had he ever denied him? What reason had he ever had to tell a famous rock star no? He sighed, everything he had ever been was dwindling out the window all for security for himself and Dustin.

Hell all of this was for Dustin.

He wouldn't have ever gone to Eddie's concert if it wasn't for Dustin. He wouldn't have been worried about surviving on the run if it had just been him, but keeping Dustin safe and happy was really his only concern. Dustin was his light, the reason he kept going and kept striving for something better. He tried not to curse at the thought as he looked over at Dustin who was singing along to Eddie as he started a new song.

He would always do anything for him, no matter what it was if Dustin needed it he would do it.
