Summary
Steve pointed at him. "If your hand goes below my waist for more than five seconds, I'm pulling the plug."
"I'm counting to five so slow.” Eddie murmured.
"Eddie."
"Sweetheart."
Steve groaned. "This is going to be the longest week of my life."

Summary
Eddie freezes, not because he’s uncomfortable, but because he’s terrified that moving even an inch will break the spell. His arm stays where it is, draped across the couch, but he angles it just enough that it curves protectively around Steve’s shoulders. Not touching, not really.
And Eddie… God. Eddie’s done for.
He can’t imagine a life without this guy anymore.
When did that happen? When did it change? When did Steve fucking Harrington go from the rich kid with perfect hair and too many friends to… this? To someone Eddie would fight monsters for. Someone he’d sit awake for, just to make sure he’s breathing okay. Someone who falls asleep against Eddie like Eddie is someone solid, someone safe.
It’s insane. It’s absolutely deranged. If his high school self could see this — Steve The Hair Harrington wrapped around him like some big, warm golden retriever of a hero — Eddie would’ve laughed in disbelief. Or passed out. Or both.
But reality is right here, breathing against his collarbone. Steve asleep beside him, trusting Eddie to watch over him. To stay.
Or: 5 times Steve falls asleep on Eddie and 1 time Eddie returns the favor.

Summary
“I can’t believe he kissed you in the middle of a baseball field,” Robin exclaims so suddenly, Steve nearly falls off his chair.
“In the middle of a baseball field in Hawkins, Indiana! Homophobic capital of bumfuck, America. That man is certified insane,” she adds, voice lower this time.
“Well, yeah! He kissed me out of nowhere and then he just didn’t stop. It’s like he decided for himself that we were gonna have a…a thing, or like, date, and then he just went with it.”or, Eddie starts kissing Steve, Steve gets addicted to it, has a crisis, and the rest is history.
