    Summary

    “You’re being weird,” Chrissy said. “With Steve.”

    Eddie sighed and tossed the rag aside. “I’m not being weird. The kid’s just… suspicious, okay? Nobody shows up in a spotless Beemer, looking that good, just to take a desk job in this dump for minimum wage. He’s digging for something, I can feel it.”

    Chrissy raised a brow. “Digging for what, exactly?”

    He hesitated. “Hell if I know. Me?”

    She stared, then snorted. “Right. The feds finally figured it out. Send in some pretty boy in tight jeans to make you confess.”

    Eddie tried not to smile, and failed completely. “You joke, but that’s exactly how they’d get me.”

    “Damn right it is.”

    Summary

    Xander’s not ready to not be on a swim team, so he finagles his way onto Kent Prep’s roster. He’s certainly not ready to be eyeing boys in the way Larry thought he was, but that one is a little more out of his control.

    Summary

    Steve laughs again as he takes another drag of smoke, golden brown Omegan eyes watching him keenly, glinting with amusement, before he blows the cloud of smoke off to the side.

    Eddie somehow feels like he's still out of the loop.

    “That's… Eddie, that's really sweet of you, and I really appreciate the sentiment.” He turns to Eddie fully, cigarette between his fingers, resting against his lips that are still curved in an amused smile. “I kinda feel like I need to correct something though…” He leans in a little bit, speaking softer. “I don't scare Alphas away because I'm a dude.”

    For some reason, Steve's tone of voice makes Eddie's skin prickle up in goose bumps.

    It's the oh no sensation all over again. Like he's in way over his head and only realized it just now.

    “O-Oh?” he prompts weakly.

    Steve snorts, and he glances up at Eddie from underneath his eyelashes. Which is impressive, given they're the same height.

    “They get scared off when they realize I'm not interested in letting them take charge. That's why.”

    -

    It all starts when Steve accidentally sends Eddie an explicit picture. Eddie does what any red blooded Alpha would do.

    Summary

    "I mean, you present yourself as this big romantic," Eddie says, his head lolling over to look at Steve. "I'm just wondering if there's anything darker hiding under that prince charming exterior, or if you're all missionary and tender love-making to the core."

    Steve is grateful for the low lighting that covers the way his face suddenly flushes, because— there is something. It's not something he's ever admitted out loud, and just fantasizing about it has left him feeling guilty more than once.

    There's no way he can look Eddie in the eye and say 'I've thought about sneaking in through my girlfriend's windows and fucking them while they're asleep'.

    Summary

    'What the hell is Eddie Munson doing here?

    Probably for the same reason Steve is.

    "—how many times I've said that I will not be conforming to society's bullshit expectations of—oh." Eddie cuts himself off when he notices Steve sitting criss-cross by the pool.

    He eyes Steve carefully before moving closer, head tilted and dark eyes narrowed. Eddie is apparently notorious for being hot-headed, a complete maniac, a freak. Steve isn't sure how any interaction between the two of them will go, what with them being complete polar opposites.

    "What is a pretty boy like you doing out here all alone?" Eddie asks.

    Steve finds himself flushing at the comment. Eddie is closer now, still looking at him intently, and Steve pulls his eyes away, staring at the water rippling underneath his palm.

    "Party blows."'

    ~Rising NBA star Steve Harrington lives for parties, booze, and casual sex...until he meets Eddie Munson, magnetic frontman of 1989’s hottest metal band, Corroded Coffin. Their secret nights blur friendship and something more, but fame, drugs, and Eddie’s refusal to believe in love threaten to divide them. Can they survive the chaos, or will love be the song Eddie never writes?
