Summary
“Sounds like she was really fucking drunk,” Eddie sighs when Steve’s done recapping his disaster of a relationship. “People say shit they don’t mean when they’re wasted.”
“You didn’t see her face,” he says. “It was like she could tell.”
“What could she tell?”
He rubs his face out of habit and is almost surprised to find the wet tear stains. Oh that’s right, he was crying.
“That there’s something wrong with me.”
***
Steve gets his heart absolutely shattered in a bathroom at a random Halloween party. He storms off so no one can tell he’s on the verge of tears and finds Eddie Munson smoking a joint in the master bedroom.
Steve pours his heart out and tells Eddie that he just can’t get it to come naturally with Nancy. No matter how hard he tries so play at romance, he can’t love her the way he’s supposed to.
Eddie, who’s known he’s queer since middle school, sees something of himself in Steve. But as their friendship progresses into something more, Steve has to confront the fact that he might not be gay after all.

Summary
“Are you sure that you want this?” Dream asks, and he does not rush the words, but it is the closest that he will get.
Hob laughs, a low, incredulous sound. It curls fondly around Dream’s bones as Hob simply kisses him again—with more force this time, teeth sinking into flesh and nails finding skin.

Summary
When Hob speaks, his voice is too steady to sound light-hearted. “Because I love you, and I want you to have it. To know it.”
He states it like a fact, something axiomatic and indelible; night follows day and humans dream. The sun keeps rising, and Hob Gadling loves Dream of the Endless.
“Does this not scare you?” Dream asks, voice hoarse as the words trip off his tongue. “It is terrifying to me.”
Love shows itself in many forms; sometimes, words might still work best, especially where the Prince of Stories is concerned.
