Re: eddie/steph - bathtime.
[Steph let the silence linger for a moment, watching him as his eyes closed and as he struggled to unravel what was going on with him. A moment, and then she sat up, nudging his legs open so she could slide closer.] Hey, you. [Her hands skated up his chest, and she kissed the corner of his jaw as her body pressed flush up against his, arms wrapping around his neck.] I'm sorry. [Fingers tangled into the hair at the nape of his neck, and she flashed him a sad smile.] I'm sorry we're going through this. I'm sorry I can't give us what we want. We don't deserve this. [She sighed, pursing her lips again before leaning her forehead against his.] When things are back to normal, will you come see my therapist with me? [Her fingers slipped down his neck and across his shoulder before taking one of her hands to cup his cheek.] And- We'll go. We should go to the doctor together. To see if- well. You know. [Her eyes drifted shut, fingers digging into his cheek.] Okay?
