   Summary

   “Fuck, I missed you.” Eddie leans forward and captures Steve’s mouth to kiss him sloppily before releasing him with a snarl.
   “I hate you,” Steve whispers against Eddie’s mouth.
   “No, you don’t.” Eddie snaps and moves his hand from Steve’s shirt to the waistband of his jeans. “You fucking missed me.”
   “Shut up.”
   “Say it.” Eddie’s pulling the denim tighter as they chase their release.
   “Fucking shut up.” Steve’s so close.
   “Say it, baby. Fucking tell me how much you missed me. Cause I missed you.” Eddie’s voice cracks as he whispers the end.
   “Shut up,” Steve’s voice wavers, losing the confidence he was desperately clutching onto.

    

   -or-
   Eddie stupidly breaks up with Steve and this is the angsty story of how they get back together. Punches will be thrown, "hate-sex" will be had, and Steve will cope by sleeping with anyone and everyone he can. Slow burning idiots finally getting their shit together.
