   Summary

   “You’re doing so good,” he says, no louder than a whisper in the small space between them. His voice rains down on Eddie like a storm in the summer, wet and warm. It washes the tension off his shoulders, brings with it the calm of the afterglow.

   In all its aching familiarity, it’s new, too. And that should scare him. Make him run for the hills, as he’s so used to doing, and leave nothing but the shadow of his guilt behind.

   But it doesn’t.

   Instead, it invigorates him. Fills him with the heat of a fire he knows he’ll burn himself on if he allows the flame to catch. Fills him with the knowledge, terrifying and true, that Steve will tend to his wounds when he does.

   -

   Or, Eddie moves in with Steve after the Upside Down. And a few other things move in with him.
