Summary
It takes him a moment to really have a look at Eddie. It’s been nearly two years since they last saw each other, but Eddie still has the same dark, round eyes. They’re perceptive and questioning and a little intense. Eddie’s a little intense. Steve also notices that the right side of Eddie’s hair is braided against his scalp, and that he’s got red lipstick on his cheek in the perfect shape of a kiss. And oh, he’s also got a bit of the same lipstick smudged across his mouth and chin.
Steve’s already forgotten Eddie’s questions. He gives him zero warning when he reaches out to feel the braided side of his hair, breathing out “What the—“ as he does so.
Eddie, bless his soul, allows Steve to stupidly feel his hair, his questions left hanging out in the open, much like Steve’s gaping mouth.
Steve doesn’t just stop there. It’s like his hand has a mind of its own as it moves from Eddie's hair to his chin, and Steve squints a little as he starts trying to rub off some of the lipstick with his thumb.
