I just finished this last night

don't look at the timezones too closely, the idea of eddie on tour and leaving steve voicemails to wake up to in the morning was too cute to pass up ao3 link

"steeeeeve harrington."

eddie's sleepy voice rumbles away in steve's ear. there's no one else around so steve doesn't bother to hide his grin as he snuggles further under the blankets.

eddie chuckles, breathy and giddy, like he's telling a private joke. "good morning, sweetheart. well, morning for you. sun won't be up here for another–" there's a pause, then a shuffle, and steve can picture eddie rolling over in his hotel bed to look at the alarm clock even though he could just look at his phone, "–five hours, christ alive."

steve's grin turns gooey when eddie lets out a loud yawn into the receiver. he hears the sheets shifting and he has to reel his mind back in from the gutter.

"the boys say i'm stupid for leaving you all these voicemails," eddie tells him once he's comfortable. steve pictures them both laying the same way, facing each other. "they call me whipped every time i pick up my phone, but guess what, stevie?"

he pauses, like he's waiting for an answer.

steve can't help but to whisper back, "what, eds?" into the quiet of their bedroom.

"i miss you so much, sweetheart."

steve feels his heart jump to his throat so suddenly that he almost chokes on it. butterflies erupt in his belly and he can feel himself blushing. his lips wobble with the attempt to not make some embarrassing expression, even though he's the only one in the room.

it's been over a month since they've seen each other in person. photos of their teary eyed send off were still making the rounds on twitter and instagram—steve tucked into eddie's side at the check-in counter with their hands in each other's back pockets, them waiting in line at one of the airport restaurants because the flight was delayed so they had another two hour wait time. the fan video of them making out in a hidden alcove away from the band.

there's been facetime calls, but it doesn't replace the longing need to have eddie physically with him. to kiss him. to hold him. to bury his face in his neck and never let go.

"i don't think i tell you that enough, when i leave," eddie continues, his voice still soft and gravelly from lack of sleep and singing for three hours straight. "but i do. i'm so used to you being the first thing i see when i wake up that i get sad when i open my eyes and you're not beside me."

steve grips the blankets and lets out a pathetic whine, his chest tight.

"i miss holding your hand, i miss being able to kiss you, i miss hearing your laugh and seeing your smile." eddie sighs, deep and sorrowful, and it breaks steve's heart.

he wants to take his love's face in his hands and kiss him until he no longer sounds so sad.

"just fourteen hundred more hours and i'll have you back in my arms. call me after you listen to this, okay? i love you so much."

the voicemail ends and steve sits up, his bedhead wild and unruly. he taps out a message to chrissy asking for the next available flight they could put him on and sighs in relief when she says they can fly him out tomorrow night at the earliest.

mentally going over everything he needs to pack, steve falls back down onto the bed while his phone rings out on speaker.

"hey, babydoll."

at the sound of his boyfriend's voice in real time, a calmness washes over steve as he sinks back into the pillows.

"hi, baby. i got your message."

Spiderman and Batman were trying to date; and, Ahsoka Tano ran and force-jumped all over my living room, so...

Somehow peaceful games would always derail into murder mysteries or adventures with all the toys having very dramatic backstories! What kind of games did you play as a kid?

Sooo... life?

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE: I'M UP TO EPISODE 7.

The kiss scene had perfect build up and tension

I like that Joke becomes more expressive after the fact.

Zo putting in distance makes sense but is annoying af. Like you can't act like before because you're deliberately avoiding him.

Joke's interaction with Zo's mom is just funny and sweet.

That arcade not-date date was cute

I knew I liked Zo's friends! They're solid. Kot really about to square up and I love that!

Poor Nita. She doesn't deserve that. Sidenote: that scene had me anxious and angry) Also, her interactions with both Zo and Joke really help show their contrast. Zo puts her on a pedestal while Joke actually knows about her; so it's very different.

If dude did his research like he said, why he ain't know Nita had a boyfriend?

Ooh not a couch conversation

Ooh a sleepover... PUT YOUR SHIRT BACK ON... that shirt's still off but okay... Oh big spoon little spoon. Cute....“what? You'll be stuck together forever- I was joking omg lol! I love this.”

Ooh first date. Joke you don't like heights. And now you're puking after getting on one ride.

Joke begging not to get on the biggest ride is hilarious to me

I see that product placement

Joke being the second guy Zo's ever liked really shines a light on why he pushed him away at first. Also, I kept just repeating “no” over and over as that flashback progressed. I was mad as h3ll as Puen

Not me guessing dialogue again! Joke's grandma had me about to yell. Just to make her supportive. 🎶Did a full 180🎶 I wasn't ready!

Jeng why you accepting girls’ IDs when you got a boyfriend? Is it for appearances? Pok’ sad/mad about something. Is it because of the IDs? Ooh I need info!

Zo's confession was unexpected but welcome. I like how him and Nita talk it over and he admits to liking herstill but genuinely as a person.

Zo's overworking himself. I was ready for the sick trope. The drama was ✨immaculate✨ Okay Zo's fine... Oop I was wrong!

Not Puen being behind them in line at the coffee shop! Joke was understandably about to throw hands!

Zo really said 'ooone more kiss, okay now you can go' I was shook. Joke's reaction after was the cutest thing 🤭
