Summary
Everything is going slowly foggy. The fear is fading. Eddie's vaguely aware that it's probably because he's dying. What was terrifying a couple of minutes ago is only vaguely of interest now. An ephemeral pressure on the back of his brain. Present, yet easy to ignore.
All he can taste is his own blood, but it's not so bad. At least he can tell Dustin how much he loves him. And Steve's there. Steve Harrington. Who knew he would turn out to be such a great guy? So, yeah. It all feels alright. Everyone seems to be fine, so Eddie did what he set out to do.
Eddie was brave.
Eddie feels sleepy, vaguely aware that he's, actually, probably dying.
He closes his eyes.
There's a strange sense of vertigo, strange enough that Eddie notices he's standing up before he notices that someone's kissing him. It's a soft press of lips. It's wonderful.
Eddie blinks his eyes open, and from an inch away, he's looking at Steve Harrington.

Summary
Not everyone was awful. Some kids were just curious about him, asked why he acted the way he did, and he did his best to calmly explain it all. I can't help it, actually. It's just my brain works different. That turned into Eddie's brain's fucked. It's broken. He's a fucking--
So he used it. Eddie the Freak. Attention-seeking, desperate for people to notice him. So he started making devil horns, yelling from tabletops, making himself The Freak so no one could use it against him.

Summary
“Hey.” Eddie tugs his hand. “No rules.“ He tugs again, prompting Steve to look up at him before he speaks again, softer. “This is just us, Stevie.”
Steve looks back at him, and Eddie can practically see the moment it sets in. That he’s safe here. That he’s free.

Summary
His hair is overgrown. He doesn’t really have bangs anymore; they’re long enough now to tuck behind his ears, so Steve does, reaching up and doing so as gently as he can before he holds Eddie’s face tenderly. He’s so cold.
Steve looks at him, scanning his face, searching desperately for what to say. Eddie’s tears slip between his fingers again.
“…You are so fucking loved, Eddie Munson.”
