So, reluctantly, he stops.Įddie looks at him through half-lidded eyes, a hazy smirk forming on his kiss-swollen lips - Steve’s fault now, and the thought is weird and wonderful in equal measure - and says, “No wonder the girls like you so much.” But it is the woods and they’re alone but anyone could walk past, really, and not only that but the feeling of dread hasn’t completely gone away just yet and he’s not sure he’s ready to dive into it quite that deep, not right now. His kisses a trail downwards, down the sharp line of Eddie’s jaw, down his throat, and Eddie’s head tips back even as he gasps out, “If you’re planning on– fucking me in the woods, then by all means, continue– doing that but if not then you should probably– stop–”įor a moment, Steve’s tempted. “Shut up,” Steve says, and then kisses him again to make him shut up, because he can do that now. “Only took you sixty years,” Eddie breathes, when they separate for air. Steve thinks about pulling back for a moment but then Eddie’s melting into him, hands twisting out of his grasp to clutch at Steve’s face and Steve’s own hands tangle in his hair, ridiculously soft, he now learns, as Eddie’s lips part and he deepens the kiss hungrily and it’s a messy kiss, the way the first kiss with someone usually is, teeth knocking together and noses bumping and neither of them really knowing what to do with their hands and also it’s different kissing a guy, it’s sharper angles and the faint scratch of stubble and a gravelly lowness to the gasp Eddie lets out when Steve bites down on his lip, and it’s messy and it’s perfect and it’s fucking insane in a really, really good way and Steve can’t quite believe it’s taken him this long to do this already.
So Steve kisses him, and kissing him is like nothing else in the world.Įddie lets out a surprised sound against his lips.
