   Summary

   "His head is swimming with drunkenness and he thinks this might be it, life and all that. A weak body at night, substance abuse, ears ringing from the thrumming of speakers as he plays riffs on his guitar."

   After finally graduating, Eddie knows what's ahead of him: a life filled with music, alcohol, touring in a cramped van, and barely enough money left to buy breakfast. What he doesn't expect is to find Steve Harrington searching for something similar, a career under the limelight projected in the silver screen.

   What he expects even less are the secrets Steve hides, and his place right there in Steve's mind.
