Re: comm: eddie/steph
You can wear your glasses if you want, okay? I'll allow you to hide away this once. Do I get at least a hint at what you've got planned? Because we'll make time, no matter what. I don't want him to ruin my birthday, especially when I can spend time with you. But, yeah, booze might be called for. Even if I'm only turning twenty, Eddie. [Laugh.] Yeah, I'm okay with that for now. Though I don't know if you can avoid it.
[Smile. She doesn't mind fighting with him if they always manage to end up here.] I think about it a lot, too. I needed it. I needed you, which is funny to think about. It was the first time I realized I had real feelings for you, y'know that? Sitting on that bathtub. Holding your hand. You were the only person who could talk me down then. You're still the only person who can logic me out of all of this. [Warmly. Rolling so that she's on her back, arms underneath her head as she stares up. Still listening to the activity below, of course.] Romantic enough. Recite some poetry to me. That's romantic.
