Celestialimagery Stories

Steve notices things. Recently, he's been picking up on it more. Eddie makes these little movements, minute utterances under his breath, like he's reassuring himself of something. The seemingly incessant tap tap tapping of his fingers, too exact to be strumming a rhythm in the seam of his jeans but too calculated to be mindless. His pointer finger taps the table. Once, twice, three...Five times. Five times before he moves onto his middle. Then his ring, then his pinky, then back to the pointer. Interesting. or Eddie's got these habits that Steve desperately wants to understand.
