    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.

    Summary

    “Hey newbie. Ever worked in a bar before?” the guy asks with an easy smile. Steve snaps his eyes up to meet his, and shit they’re pretty. The greeting would be charming from anyone else, perhaps even from the guy himself if he’d not overheard the exchange moments before, but Steve’s insides curl at the condescension.

    “Yeah. For about five years. Thanks. And my name’s Steve,” he responds, voice clipped. He yanks at the ties of his apron, knotting the bow just a little tighter than is comfortable. He’ll have to adjust it later, but the man’s dark eyes are roaming over him like he’s something edible, and there’s no way Steve’s going to give any indication whatsoever that he’s prey.

    “Nice to meet you, Steve. I’m Eddie.”

    Steve can’t prevent the way his face scrunches in confusion, because surely not. There’s no way that this is the Eddie. Sure, he’s not exactly hard on the eyes, but from the little Steve’s experienced of him so far, he seems like a major ass. The way Bridget had hyped him up, anyone would think fucking Jon Bon Jovi worked here.

    OR

    when the upmarket cocktail bar Steve's working at goes out of business, he finds himself in desperate need of a job.
