When theyāre grown ups ā¢ Eddie wants to open his own music store.
And Steve supports him, sure, wtf else is he gonna do with this business degree his dad made him get. This will make you feel fulfilled? Then letās do it babe.
They settle in Brooklyn, itās perfect really, itās a nice place to make a home as an alt gay and his bi lover. Maybe one day they settle down in jersey or Long Island with a couple nuggets, but for now itās home. And they open their alt music shop. It becomes a big deal on the scene, too. A kind of home base. Everyone knows them as a famous infamous shop, and they adore the charismatic, big hearted, kind owner Eddie. People come to him for advice, help. Music and personal. Like a community dad.
And of corse Steves there. Steve runs the store with him, just more of the back office side. Stock, books. Marketing. Sure Steve has his side income, he owns a strip mall, or plays the market. Something to give them a safety net, god forbid. But he does work the store sometimes. And when he does he sticks out like a sore thumb. Some regulars know him, or Atleast know of him as Eddieās partner but most customers really donāt.
One day itās very busy, and Eddie much prefers customer servicing on the floor so Steve offers to watch the register, of corse. Hell do anything to get to watch eddie being so animated and happy.
And heās the out of touch awkward dad he is with all the customers. But heās still so nice, so supportive (āoh good choice everyoneās snatching this one up. Is this what you kids are groovin to these days?ā) and heās mostly well liked as ānormie Steveā. Or some shit like that. No one gets his presence but they like him enough.
One day some kids are snickering, āyo whose dad is that behind the register oh my godā
āThatās the ownerā one of the kids friends deadpans.
āNo, I know Eddie thatās not eddieā
āNo, numb nuts thatās Steve. Eddies partnerā
āHis business partner?ā
āLife partner. Like gay husband.ā. There is a look of shock on the kids face. They just donāt go together.
Mr polo and khakis over here, is married to Mr hair metal goth rings hand made denim jackets?
But when Eddie in grinning ear to ear, hands on the counter leaning into Steveās personal space and Steve is returning the love sick flirty look, the two teasing or bantering back and forth by the looks of it. And oh, it make sence. Look at that chemistry. These two, maybe a little confusingly, are so so in love.
