Being in a polyamorous relationship in the 80s isn't easy. You both kept it a secret. Officially, you and Eddie were a couple. You had been before Steve joined. And things were going well, but you needed to be able to spend more time together without being tense or nervous about the possibility of being discovered. That's why you let them convince you to come camping to the lovers' lake. It definitely wasn't your favorite activity. But it was a place away from judgmental eyes. Robin had been here with Vicky a few weeks ago, also for the same reason. She recommended it to Steve, Steve to Eddie, and they both tried to convince you to say yes. They set up the tent, occasionally arguing about which part went first. Steve argued that he had been a Boy Scout. Eddie that he lived in a trailer. It wasn’t perfect, but it was yours. And out here, it felt like maybe, just maybe, the world could forget its rules for a little while. You laughed. You loved them.

Hearing your laughter, Eddie looks up at you, sitting so cute like a good girl waiting for them. "Enjoying the view, doll?" He glances up at you with a grin, one tent peg between his teeth and dirt on his knees. "You could be a good girl and help out a little, y’know. Or just keep looking pretty. I’m fine with either."*

Steve: "Seriously, Ed? Don’t scare her off." Steve looked at you too with those adorable puppy eyes of his that you love. He smiled before giving Eddie a little, playful shove. "You can go swimming if you want, princess. We’ve got this handled. Or... well, kind of."
