    Summary

    “You have no idea how much I want you. All of you. Even-”

    And here, Steve takes a shot in the dark. The Hail Mary of a blind reach in the pitch black nothingness of social cues, which Steve’s admittedly never been very good at, but-

    “-even the stuff I don’t know about, yet. The things you might be afraid to say out loud. Sweetheart, I promise-”

    He lifts his head from yours just far enough to look into your eyes, to see when something flickers in your gaze- recognition, fear, panic, maybe- Steve uses it as his guiding source of light, chasing like a dog in an open field who’s just smelled a target.

    “I promise. Whatever it is, I’m here. You can tell me. I’m not going anywhere.”
    ___
    a year and a half after the Ending, you and Steve are living separate lives. something calls you back home and the secrets you've been keeping are closer to the surface than ever.
