    Summary

    Steve falls fast, as he always has. It’s different with Eddie, though– less like plunging off a cliff and more like sinking into a warm bath that he never wants to leave. More importantly, he thinks Eddie is right there with him.

    Summary

    Eddie leans forward a little and squeezes Steve’s shoulder. He whispers, “Or maybe I just want to see you when there is not 20 five-year-olds staring at me.”

    From this proximity, Steve can smell his cologne and lingering car oil. He can feel his brain cells dying every second he inhales the intoxicating aroma. Steve breathes shallowly, too aware of the growing blush on his cheeks, and says, “S-sure. I’d like that.”

    Eddie smirks and has the audacity to wink before going to each of his kids, ruffling their hair, and kissing them goodbye with a big wet smack on their cheeks. He passes by Steve again and murmurs, “I won’t say goodbye to you like that. Not yet, at least. Good luck with my little gremlins” before walking out the door.

    or: kindergarten teacher! steve is ready to give up on dating when single dad! eddie walks into his classroom. now he sees everything in a different light.

    Summary

    “There’s just nothing to tell. Like, what, I’ve seen the guy a handful of times and all of a sudden I’m attached to my phone like a day trader, writing and deleting texts like I’m trying to write the great American novel? I’ve spent, like, less than a week’s worth of days with the guy, it’s — it’s literally nothing.”
    Dustin leans his head to the side and studies Steve, eyes sharpening. “...you’re not kidding, are you?”
    “Kidding about what?”
    “About — Steve, do you really not know what ‘missing someone’ feels like?”

    Or: Steve does something reckless, Eddie makes sure he won't forget it, and commitments are made.
