Summary
In the end everyone is aware of this:
nobody keeps any of what he has,
and life is only a borrowing of bonesA story in three acts
Or:
After Eddie’s death, Steve is lost. He hides his and Eddie’s past on and off relationship as he pours whatever is left of him into keeping his friends safe, and fighting the apocalypse that’s landed at their door.
He avoids sleep, too terrified of what he will see, haunted and tormented by dreams of Eddie, dreams that feel all too real. He avoids them until he can’t anymore, wiling to accept anything of Eddie he can have as the world falls apart around him.
When nothing is as it seems, Steve will find that the most horrific hells and the most beautiful hopes are two sides of the same coin. A lost boy returns, battle lines are drawn, and each player must fight a world that is older and stranger than they’d ever thought before.

Summary
Moments like this made him feel normal. He was making dinner for the person he loved after work. He wasn't someone who fought monsters from another dimension. He didn't have nightmares, or panic attacks, or migraines. He certainly hadn't ever been beaten nearly to death in a Russian bunker.
He was just Steve. And he loved Eddie.
--
This is the sequel to There's No Mystery to This Man.
A slight AU where Steve and Eddie have been together since the previous summer. Leading into season 4.
