Steddie Angst Prompt: Nepo Steve + Undiscovered Musician Eddie
Eddie is trying to make it big in the music scene but people don’t get ‘discovered’ nowadays, even with a manager, it’s all about who you know. And Eddie gets the chance to mingle after subbing for small band who were one member short. He scores an invitation to tag along to a party. A high profile party.
And Eddie’s manager gives him a tip: the son of C. Harrington, owner of huge record label GNH, will be there and he so happens to bat for the both teams.
Nothing is said directly but it’s heavily implied that if Eddie can manage to shake this guy’s hand and flirt his way into a few dates… that can be his in.
So, okay, stringing along some rich entitled asshole born with a silver spoon in his mouth? Eddie’s game. Doesn’t hurt that the guy is easy on the eyes, even if a little too on the preppy side for his tastes.
And he does it. He gets his few dates, but no word has reached Harrington senior about his music so it looks like this might turn into the long game.
Except that Steve is sweet.
Eddie didn’t count on Steve being so sweet.
Eddie didn’t count on Steve showing active emotional interest. To spill his heart out to Eddie and reach with such lonely hands practically begging to be loved.
Eddie didn’t count on falling in love either.
Maybe Eddie can have his cake and eat it too, right?
But then, well,
Steve finds out about his original intentions.
#of course eventually we get a happy ending#but in between we have the overwhelming guilt#the inner battle of morals#people being not what they seem#the betrayal#Steve heartbroken and pitches his music to his dad to get Eddie signed#as a fuck you this is what you wanted right?#eddie struggling to find a way to win him back#and regain his trust#does he sign the contract? does he burn it cuz he chooses Steve#does he write a whole album for Steve that debuts a year later?#does Steve forgive him?#that’s up to yall#steddie#bee speaks#steddie ficlet#steddie prompt#musician eddie munson#nepo baby steve Harrington
