Summary
The man, face red with ire, pressed deeper into Steve's personal space. Eddie, without thinking, shoved him away. "Get out!" he barked.
"And who the hell are you?" Steve’s father rerouted his rage. Before Eddie could answer, Steve interlocked their arms together.
"He is my fiance."
**
Eddie knew loss as a fish knew water. That didn't mean death wasn't painful. No matter how many times he lost, it hurt just as badly.
His third attempt at breaking the curse came with such pain, but it was unique. For he lost so much more than his lover.
He lost his daughter too.

Summary
"I need you to train me."
He's pretty sure his brain just malfunctioned.
"Me? I- I don't know how any of your..." he gestures at her wildly, "how your magic juju works."
"It's not magic."
"Same difference. I don't know shit about it."
She huffs, frustrated, bouncing on her feet with anger, a teenager again. An annoyed teenager, at that. God, no wonder she and Dustin are friends.
"It's not that. It's... Lucas said... Lucas said you helped him train. For his basketball trials last year."
********
Or:
Eleven asks Steve for help training to beat the obstacle course. Enter: Coach Harrington. Turns out they have way more in common than they expected.
