Prompt: First Day (Discord Drabble)

"Do you have your lunch?"

"Yes."

"Water bottle?"

"Yes."

"Meds?"

"Obviously!"

"Notebook?"

"Hasn't left my work bag since last semester."

Eddie gasps and Steve jumps even though he has felt his partner hovering close behind him ever since he picked up his keys and announced he was leaving for his first day back for another school year.

"What about your glasses!"

"Eddie," Steve begins, standing upright as he hoists his work bag over his shoulder, "I'm wearing my glasses."

Eddie smiles, all innocence and dimples. He reaches forward to smooth out his collar.

"Silly me," he says, moving to dust off the shoulders of Steve's jacket.

"I'll call you during my lunch break," Steve assures, leaning forward to press a kiss to the corner of Eddie's mouth, "Love you."

He turns to leave but he feels a hand on his shoulder.

"I'll walk you to the car."

"Fine," Steve chuckles, reaching for Eddie's hand.

"Love you too, Stevie," Eddie says, once again impossibly close behind him.
