Summary
Men like him didn’t deserve grief. He didn’t even know the word until he was older, and he knew less what it meant. But it made sense when the word found his ears as he lingered in the doorway of the shitty dilapidated house that he had grown to accept. He only ever found it within himself to fight back when Eddie was gone. He only yelled when it mattered to Eddie, only cried when he anticipated the breakage of Eddie’s heart. He’d never had the energy to fight until he was this disaster of a human, and that fight in him was rage, and that rage was grief.

Summary
“Steve,” Eddie repeats softly. Steve’s eyes look into his, shining like he’s already there, like he’s already floating. “If you want something, you gotta ask for it.”
Steve’s eyes flutter, and he looks like he wants to let out a whine, glancing across Eddie’s face again like he’s forgotten where they are.
“Fuck me,” he says weakly, and the words crawl under Eddie’s skin like they belong there. “Please. Will you please fuck me?”
//
or; Steve and Eddie start hooking up and it makes them both happier than it should.

Summary
Robin's frowning. “Did you see his face? He was like…bleeding.” She gives Steve a look. “You should go check on him.”
“Jesus, why me? I barely know him!”
“Me neither!” Robin argues. “But he's in the guy’s bathroom and you're a guy, so logically you should be the one to go in there and make sure he's not getting blood all over the floor! Because if he is, you're the one who's gonna have to clean it up.”
Steve patches Eddie up after a chance encounter. He doesn't mean to fall in love with him, but it happens anyway. Unfortunately, there's something in Eddie's past that keeps getting in their way.
