When it came to Eva, Steve's suspicions were nearly always right. He'd known her habits for far too long. She was pulling away from him, and when Eva pulled away disaster was always close behind. This time, Steve couldn't even begin to comprehend what she'd done. Hopefully she'd gone to a muggle; if it was a wizard tattoo there was absolutely no way he could help her remove it. Had she even been thinking? Of course people were going to be upset! The brands were a sensitive topic right now. Steve knew Eva wasn't being malicious, but that tattoo was throwing it all in their faces.
Before leaving his place, Steve grabbed a bag of crisps. He knew Eva liked them, and he hadn't been at home enough to eat them lately. He wasted no time in leaving - he still wore his work clothes, and Merlin knew what was happening with his hair. He was running low on sleep and empathy these days. Michael and him had spent the last hours working on their net, but Steve was beginning to feel defeated. God only knew what he would arrive to at the store tomorrow.
The whole time Steve made his way to Eva's, he was thinking about her tattoo. The numbers weren't random, neither were the letters. It wasn't until Steve had quietly opened the door and was standing in the front hall it hit him. Nicolas. Bloody hell. Steve let the crisps and his coat fall to the floor. He wasn't exactly prepared for this. Not tonight. He was expecting an out-of-control Eva, not an emotional one. Dammit.
"Eva?" Steve called quietly, his anger with her slipping away as it was replaced by fear and worry.
