eddie doesn't know what to say. for a long, long time eddie just sits there looking down at the message. feels his eyes burn a little, just a little, at the sudden swell of feeling. eddie is used to being rejected. he's used to being tolerated. he's not used to someone wanting him like this. wholly and completely, warts and all his infuriating little habits.
it, unfortunately, derails what he wanted to talk about. how if steve likes billy, then - he's got no problem opening things up. he cares about billy. and while he doesn't want mindless fucking, its clear they've got a bond.
a bond which is being pumped full of affection, and guilt, and a little bit of uncertainty that he's worthy of all this. ]
