Summary
"I’m sure it'll be boring for you," Steve admits with a playful grin, "but I’d like to try. I’d like to learn.”
Steve froze, his breath caught in his throat as he waited for Eddie to say something, anything.
“No.” Eddie’s voice is barely a whisper, so soft it’s almost swallowed in the quiet room. His eyes remain fixed on the ground, avoiding Steve’s gaze completely. He steps back, putting space between them, his fingers still curled tightly around the figurine.
“No, Steve. I don’t have time for that.” His voice catches. “We’re in the middle of a campaign that I’ve spent hours planning.” Eddie runs his hand through his hair, his fingers tangling in a knot. “I've got this new job, and the band, and I just don't have time to teach you. I don't have the time for you.”

Summary
Steve was thankful, really. He had people who cared about him, and a boyfriend he was quickly falling in love with, who seemed to love him back. Eddie was an enigma, even when he was being his usual gentle, adorable self. There was a darker side to Eddie that was incredibly enticing, one that Steve wanted to experience.
Eddie was holding back, and Steve wanted to see him fully unleashed.
