    Summary

    “Thank you,” is what she blurts, and Eddie pulls back.
    “Why?” He asks, and it’s so genuine that Steve can’t help but laugh.
    “You… You helped me so- so much. I wouldn’t- I’d have never- look at me,” She says, barely believing herself.
    “I just can’t… I can’t believe I’ve ended up with someone as- as wonderful as you are,” She says, after a beat. “You’re perfect- I- I love you.”

    Summary

    'Perhaps Steve was ill. There was no reason for this sort of fuss – he hardly knew the guy, and Eddie hadn’t exactly been the most forthcoming when he had visited him in the hospital. He had quipped, sure, pain-hazed and slurring, had smirked and winked and thrust his arms about, but he hadn’t really talked. He’d deflected – classic, really – and Steve hadn’t meddled, hadn’t done anything about the sleepless bruises under his eyes or paper-thinness of his skin, or the way he had sat in his hospital bed coiled, ready to jump and run.

    Because Steve didn’t know Eddie. And Eddie didn’t know Steve. Which was why he was surprised when, on a quiet, drizzly Tuesday morning at The Enigma Pig, the walkie-talkie on his hip crackled to life.'

    (In a moment of need, Eddie radios Steve for help.)
