    Summary

    “Stevie… Don’t do this to me...”
    “-if you - wait - d-do what?”
    “I’ve been trying not to have this talk…” She’s looking everywhere but at him.

    A chill runs down his spine. “I think we should have it… I - I need it. If you don’t want to, it's okay. I get it. That’s enough of an answer… But I do think I need to hear it. The more time we spend together, the more I keep forgetting this is supposed to be fake. And this hasn’t felt fake for a while now. At least not to me.”

    He can see her conflicted face. She’s too transparent.
    He sighs, resigned. He’s sure that if they’re quiet enough, she can hear the sound of his heart shattering. “Does that mean you finally came up with a reason to break up with me then? Please tell me it’s not super herpes…”
    She barks a laugh, but also looks on the brink of tears. “I - I should be honest with you.”

    Steve’s heart falls to his ass.
    Right on time for her to stomp all over it.

    Because here it is. This has to be the moment when she breaks his heart.
    “I - I don’t think I’m a girl, Stevie.”

    WHAT?!

    What if Eddie's transition is what causes Steve’s sexuality crisis?

    Summary

    “Sorry,” Steve says. “I’m sorry, I know this doesn’t make any sense to you, but can I just–”

    Eddie lets him approach, this time. Lets him reach out to touch, to curl his fingers in the hem of Eddie’s shirt.

    “Sorry, I know I probably sound crazy, I just––” he pulls it up, stares at Eddie’s side, and then lets out a hysterical little noise that sounds like a cross between a laugh and a sob.

    “You’re ok,” Steve says.

    His fingers are hot on Eddie’s skin, pressed light and shockingly reverent to the space between his hip and rib cage.

    “You’re ok,” he repeats. It sounds like he’s trying to convince himself.

    “Hey,” Eddie says. It comes out more breathless than he’d prefer but Steve fucking Harrington has him backed against a wall in a bathroom with his hands up Eddie’s shirt so he thinks a little lack of air is warranted. “Are you ok?”

    The fingers on his abdomen flex. "No,” Steve says. His eyes are wide and fathomless and the look on his face is terrible. “No, I’m not even remotely ok.”
