Need me a fic where Eddie knows just enough about AIDS to know it's deadly, and not enough to know anything about how to protect himself so the first time Steve ask to go further than making out and feeling each other up through their pants Eddie dead on ask ''Do you love me?''
Of course it's panic on board for Steve, on the inside it's all ''Was I too forward? Is he making fun of me?? Is it gonn abe another Nancy situation? Did I read it wrong??''' and on the outside it's a useless series of ''Hum... I- I... Hum...'', because yeah, Steve is head over heels for Eddie but he's not gonna say it if it's gonna ruin what they've been having!
''It's okay if you're not there yet.'' is what Eddie says next. Still spread shirtless and breathing heavily on the backseat of Steve's car. ''But we're not having sex until then.''
That's... Steve frown. He heard that from some girls, but it was just about putting it in.
Eddie nods a little. ''I promised myself that if I would risk catching the gay plage, it had to be w someone who loves me.''
That's dark but it makes sense. Steve kinda forgot that this thing they talk about in the news lately could affect him too now-
''We're good on my part- wait. Does that mean you love me too?'' He realises mid sentence.
He's surprised by Eddie's deadpan expression.
''Steve. I called you 'Light of my life' not one hour ago.''
Steve feels his cheeks getting warm, nibbling at his lower lip.
''Yeah but you give me pet names all the time.''
''Because I love you all the time?'' Eddie adds. His hand comes to caress Steve's cheek. ''Sorry it wasn't clear enough. I love you Steve.''
His confession is awarded by the most beautiful smile Eddie ever saw.
