“ i know this might sound weird but, do you wanna stay over? i guess ‘sleepover’ sounds kind of childish but. i think it’d be nice “
"For the record? I don't think sleepover sounds childish at all." Steve smiled warmly, trying to reassure Eddie of this fact, and the fact that it really didn't sound all that weird. "I never really got to have them when I was a kid, so I'm not going to say no to having one now. Especially if it means we get to do crochet things like making a blanket fort." Cliche, Steve, cliche. In fact, all of this was getting him rather excited, Steve sitting on the bed beside the metalhead with his hazel eyes filled with naive acknowledgement.
"I mean like, Nance had sleepovers and stuff when we were dating, but it wasn't exactly for....I mean....I'm sure you could think of what it was for." He muttered, not wanting to rub it in Eddie's face or anything, but more so to prove he didn't exactly know what a sleepover genuinely was. "What do people do at sleepovers regularly? Like, eat popcorn, stay up late and watch movies, prank call people they don't like?"
He knew it was probably ridiculous, that Steve Harrington was so innocent to all these things. But his parents had kept him fairly secluded, wanted to mold him into the person they wanted. They had more or less chosen his friends based on money and social status, and 'the rich' didn't really do the sleepover thing. They did fancy dinners where they all sat around and bragged about what they owned and what they were going to do. Steve had basically lost his whole childhood in a way, and here Eddie Munson was offering it on a platter.
