Prompt: "What? Where?!" (Discord Drabble)
"Steve," Eddie says, giving a weary look as he smoothes his hands over his jacket.
Not that the leather would actually crumple. But he does suspect Steve stepped on it at some point.
"What?" Steve hums, palming at his polo.
He needn't worry, the thing is so tight it naturally irons itself out.
"Your hair!" Eddie warns, eyeing the great mess atop his boyfriend's – somewhat flushed – noggin.
"What?" Steve whips around to look in the mirror of Claudia Henderson's powder room, "Where?!"
Eddie can actually see Steve's brain catch up to the hair catastrophe at hand, a recoiling shiver running through his body.
He opens his mouth to laugh but instead finds himself yelping at the distinct sound of Dustin squabbling with his mother in the kitchen. Eddie clamps his hand over the door handle, heart picking up speed again. They were supposed to be out on the back patio!
His mind races through a myriad of excuses as he stares at the pink tiles encasing them.
Claudia's disapproval! Wanye's reaction. A fast-approaching, chastising "Boy!" from the old man...
Dustin's inevitable disgust and cacophonous laughter...
He rolls his eyes as he looks up at Steve's reflection. He'd meant a quick fix-up, a combing of fingers through hair.
Not Steve meticulously picking at individual strands in efforts to reconstruct his signature coif.
They both scream at a banging on the bathroom door.
