[ There is that whole saying about curiosity killing the cat that should probably have come as a warning, especially while Eddie roams through the Upside Down for the first time. He's still in shock that this place exists, and that he's in it. Only mere hours ago did things like portals to another world and magic spells exist only in the confines of his Dungeons & Dragons handbooks.
Of course, the whole everything is trying to kill them does put a damper on this whole exploration bit. Everything seems like it has the potential to be deadly, and if this is a hive mind, he should probably avoid disturbing anything, lest it act as a beacon and give their position away.
Right now, they're headed towards Eddie's trailer, having determined that this place is stuck in 1983, and leaving them with no firearms with which to fight any of the fell beasts that might be guarding the portal. If watergate is being watched, he doesn't have high hopes that this other portal isn't in a similar position.
Steve, Robin, and Nancy seem to be having a conversation about something, probably trying to figure out their next step once they get out of this hell dimension, but that leaves Eddie's curiosity unchecked. And leads to him stumbling upon some weird looking plant that he swears has been following him like the way those paintings in the art museum he visited once back in Indianapolis had eyes that followed you wherever you went. So yes, it was a stupid idea to crouch down next to it, but also he's got nothing better to do while waiting for Steve and Nancy to strike some kind of accord. Why they can't walk and talk he has no idea.
What he doesn't anticipate, however, is that said weird looking plant would cough up some kind of spores on him, and Eddie doesn't have time to react before he's breathing them in. Shit. That's...that's probably not good, is it? ]
Uh...guys? I think maybe we should...uh. Get out of here? Like now?
no subject
Look-- you two go on. I'll take care of this. [He gestures to Eddie before looking back at him.]
What did you touch? [Because something happened. Clearly.]
no subject
Already he can tell Steve has had enough of him. And yet, he's still here, when they could have just abandoned him and gotten the girls to safety. Not that Dustin would have ever let Steve come back without Eddie, so yeah, he should probably not look too far into this. ]
I didn't touch anything, I swear. I was just looking at the damn plant and it shot spores or something at me. I feel fine, though, just, uh. Maybe we don't want to hang around here much longer?
[ Because yeah, he doesn't feel like he's about to die, like he's been poisoned, but his skin does feel a little hot all of a sudden. It's probably nothing. ]
i am so sorry for slow, i caught the sickness that won't go away
Poof. The plant emits another small dust of... something. Steve shouldn't have leaned over, not when he doesn't know what the hell happened to Eddie in the first place, but does Steve ever plan these things out? Not in the least.
He coughs so for a second.]
What the hell? [It's a little late now, but yeah, there's a damn near field of these weird plants ahead of them, so if they plan on going forward, chances are they're going to get a couple more hits of-- whatever this was.]
Maybe we should head back to the trailer park? [Turn tail and hope they didn't just get spotted or hit with something worse.]
do not even worry i am equally as slow lately x.x
He flashes Steve a concerned look, but it only lasts for a moment before it's replaced by...something indescribable. In the moment, it feels good, far too good considering where they are, and that is enough to cause a surge of panic. What the fuck. ]
Yeah. Yeah, we should definitely get out of here. Fast. [ It might not be related. It could very well just be the proximity of Steve at the moment, scratching an itch that he never thought he would be able to get rid of. ]
no worries then!!
It's safer to wait for the girls there. [He hates suddenly feeling useless, but right now it is safest for both of them. So he's already heading back the way they came from. He's disappointed, but he keeps it mostly in check. The Upside Down is still relatively unknown, and he somehow got himself spored with some unknown substance. At least he's not some sort of mindless monster or something.
Right? That's not going to happen. Worriedly, his eyes wander over to Eddie to just make sure something wasn't coming from him.]
π€
He keeps a little bit of distance between them as he follows Steve, who seems to know the way better than he does. All the while, he can feel the hairs on his skin stand on end, and the heat isn't going anywhere, feeling like he's slowly being wrapped in a blanket in the middle of a heat wave. It's silly. Steve has already been contaminated, so why does he need to keep a distance at all?
And why does it feel like something is pulling him closer to Steve? When Steve turns to look at him, Eddie feels like the veil is lifted, like Steve can read his thoughts and that just causes him to flush, making the heat even worse. He's mildly aware that it's starting to rush exactly where he's been willing it away from, and if they don't get topside soon, he's going to have a very embarrassing situation on their hands. ]
What, do I have something on my face? [ He jokes, because if he keeps the mood light and distracts them both, maybe his mind won't spiral to think of the worst possible outcomes here. ]
π€π€π€ more!
You feeling-- anything... funny? [He doesn't really know how to word it. It's not like aphrodisiacs are something one comes upon regularly in the middle of Indiana. Hell, half the people in town probably couldn't even spell it. Steve included.
He just knows his eyes are on Eddie, and he's got this feeling he's only ever really gotten before with other women. He's not exactly questioning what it means, just that the warmth that spreads through his body is starting to feel more pleasant.]
no subject
Out of all people, why did it have to be Steve? He can pretend that they'll laugh about this later, but he knows deep down this is just going to be a regret. That Steve will never be able to look at him the same way again. Not to mention he feels scrutinized like this, as if Steve is going to be able to see right through him and find out that the plant might have given him a nudge but in the right scenario he would have jumped on the chance to do anything with Steve. ]
Funny? [ His voice comes out high pitched and he clears his throat to try to lower it back down to its normal tone. ] If by funny you mean feeling like I need to rip my clothes off and -- [ He cuts himself off because he doubts Steve needs a visual. It's clear they're both in the same boat. ] We should...get somewhere safe. And preferably private. Like right fucking now.
no subject
He doesn't know how to feel, but he's letting the hormones run wild. Maybe he'll think about it later, after-- but then he's never really been one to question something. So he's just going with it now.
And it's obvious that Eddie is feeling the same thing. Yeah, it might be a little awkward right now, but he picks up his pace until they find themselves at the edge of the trailer park. They're not far now, but he doesn't feel any calmer.]
Yeah, I get that. [Enough so that it just makes him continue that imagery that Eddie just stopped. He doesn't know where this sudden want is coming from, but he's going with it.]
no subject
And maybe a part of Eddie kind of doesn't want this feeling to go away even if there might be a chance that escaping from the Upside Down might neutralize whatever it is that's causing them to feel like they've just been doused with an aphrodisiac. It's a little bit intoxicating, especially knowing that Steve is going through the same thing right now, and that it's being directed at him. Even if it means nothing after all of this, he can cling to some semblance of hope, can't he? ]
Shit, feels like it's only getting worse. [ His voice is coming out raspy, and he sounds as if he's already been wrecked even though they haven't done a thing yet. ] Let's get out of here and find some place to lay low away from the others, yeah? [ Because the last thing he needs right now is for Nancy or Robin, or fucking forbid Henderson to see them like this. ]
no subject
When Eddie speaks, it takes a second to register, even realizing where they are.]
You know this place better than me. [Meaning Eddie can lead the way. There's no judgment in his tone; he just doesn't know where to go next, and he's clearly distracted by Eddie now.]
no subject
Bedroom? [ He holds out his hand, barely able to think straight. He knows the moment Steve's hand is in his, he won't even be able to wait until they get to the bedroom to start pulling Steve apart piece by piece.
But, judging by the fact that Steve is still here, he's not sure that's something Steve will even mind. ]
no subject
So no, he's not going to question this. He's going to go with it, because it has to feel better than not. He's still there with Eddie as they move into the bedroom, and while he's done this before, he knows it's different. Breathing heavily, his eyes look back at Eddie, knowing what's going to happen. They both feel the same thing, that much is clear, and their hands connecting feels like some sort of electrical current, just waiting to pull them together.]
no subject
He searches Steve's eyes when he breaks away from the kiss, making sure that he's not about to be rejected, that Steve isn't about to punch him in the face for assuming kissing would be okay, but before he can even so much as put any thought into it, it's like he's just pulling his clothes off, one by one, like his body is going into autopilot until there's nothing left but his underwear. ] Shit, this is intense. [ He lets out a nervous laugh, scratches at the back of his neck, his whole body flushed with a mixture of shame at his eagerness and intense need. ] Fuck, I need you so bad.
no subject
He groans against Eddie's mouth, feeling his dick twitch in his jeans like they're way too tight right now. Eddie's admission did get a little look from him, smirking back at him.]
I'm so fucking hard right now. [It's his own admission. While he's used to this, he's not used to this. Eddie's not alone, but clearly Steve doesn't really care too much. He should be able to offer some sort of solution, but all his blood is going to his other head.]
no subject
Right now, though, Eddie's only priority is getting out of his clothes, followed by getting Steve out of his. )
This okay? ( Just because Steve is admitting how turned on he is doesn't mean he's going to be down with going all the way, and maybe he has something else in mind for all he knows ) C'mon, let's get you out of these.
( He waits for a beat, gives Steve enough time to tell him to stop, before tugging on Steve's shirt, followed by his jeans. )
no subject
Yeah-- [He won't say he's okay, because his dick is currently overtaking his brain, but he gives a nod before Eddie's already pulling him out of his shirt. Then his jeans are being undone already. He's done this enough times before, though this is the first time with another guy. He doesn't dwell too much on that either though, pulling Eddie in by his hips to kiss him again before it was his turn to try and get the other out of his clothes.]
no subject
He grunts against Steve's lips as he kisses him passionately, only pulling apart so that Steve can get his clothes the rest of the way off. Then he's tugging Steve back to the bed, because while he may be extraordinarily horny he's not about to let Steve fuck him on the floor and end up with rug burn. )
C'mere, I've got lube and condoms in my nightstand. ( And then he pauses, with a smirk. ) Have you ever...with a man before?
no subject
Ugh. [It takes half a second for that question to register, the blood from his brain being sent elsewhere for the moment.]
A man? No. I know how to have sex though, Munson. Even with girls if you're with them in a certain way... [He knows how to put his dick in to make it not uncomfortable if that's what he wants from him.]
no subject
Alright, alright, just checking. A little different than with girls, different better, though.
( Of course, Eddie having the experience of being with men already is more than happy to be on the receiving end. At least Steve has a general idea of how this works - not that he wouldn't have prepared himself, but it's more fun being stretched open by someone else. )
You know how to get me prepared then, big boy?
no subject
[He isn't entirely surprised actually. There's no judgment in his tone or anything. He might still have to do some figuring out on what it means for himself when it's all said and done, but Eddie's his friend, so whatever or whoever he likes, he accepts it. He isn't going to be a dick about it, especially not now when his cock is hard, and he's going to be balls deep in him relatively soon.
So no, no judgments. Steve grins, hand on his cock for a moment.]
I know how to finger you until you beg for me, yeah. [That counts, right?]
no subject
( There's no point in denying it. Steve would figure it out once he's inside him, when Eddie adjusts relatively quickly, though there's a chance that whatever it is that's got them in such a lustful state would have made him not particularly care about the pain to begin with.
That doesn't matter, though. He's currently fixated on what Steve has just said, moaning loudly at the mental image of Steve's fingers stuffed deep inside him. )
Fuck, Stevie, that better be a promise.
no subject
He tries to situate his own cock, but he's tented through his underwear, and by this point there's no reason to keep them on, so he's pulling them off, and kicking them off the bed.]
no subject
Steve, who's now also in the same state of undress as him. Eddie lets his eyes roam across Steve's body, taking in every inch of him. If this is to be the one and only time they do this, then he's going to memorize every detail that he can, right up to the freckles peppering his skin.
He only gets a brief moment before his cock is reminding him of its stark desire to be taken care of, and he lets out a whine before hurrying to his drawer and grabbing the lube and condoms, passing it off to Steve. )
C'mere, big boy, show me how it's done.
no subject
Lay back on the bed. [Another almost command, but he wants to get Eddie ready, and really he wants to taste him again, being able to move over him with the lube still in one hand. Fuck, he's so turned on at this point.]
no subject
He spreads his legs, pulling his thighs up to his stomach as he looks up at Steve in awe and disbelief. This is the last position he expected to be in, underneath Steve, but fuck, he's too far gone to question how they got here. ) Please, Stevie, I need you. ( His voice is already wrecked and they barely even got started. He can only imagine what it will sound like once they're through. )
no subject
But he's already got the lube as he leans down to kiss him deeply, making sure to slowly press his fingers when he knows they're both ready. His movements are precise, slow enough for now, but experienced enough despite never doing this with a man before. He gets the principle. He might never had had another cock between him, but just feeling him has a heat pooling between his legs, making him stiffen against Eddie's thigh when he presses in against him.]
no subject
Despite this not being the first time Eddie's done this with another man, there's something about the way Steve does this that overshadows anyone else Eddie has ever been with. Maybe it's the pollen, or maybe there's something more at play. Maybe Steve really is every bit the expert lover that the ladies of Hawkins say he is. Whatever the case may be, it has Eddie writhing and moaning and begging for more. )
no subject
This good for you? [His voice is a little huskier, already thinking what else will be sinking into him shortly enough.]
no subject
Shit, baby, already feels fucking heavenly. ( He shudders with pleasure, a thick sheen of sweat already starting to form as he rocks against his finger. ) Not enough, though, I need more, and I know you do, too.
