You Called My Name (My Whole World Changed)

(Please listen to, Before I Loved You by Phillip Phillips to know the music)

TheHair was a mystery to the public, suddenly appearing one day with ‘Second Chance’ and never posting again. Not even an announcement of an official release of the full song, everyone wondering if the person just left it alone because they wanted people to come up with their own version or if they realized it was a mistake and went back home.

Steve smiled as he heard the music fill the room and he couldn’t believe how well it came together. How he managed to write that in only a year of being together. But it’s here and he feels giddy that others will hear it, that he’ll hear it officially. He’s read the lyrics in the notebook, has felt the words traced on his skin. It’s not that much of a surprise but he knows he’ll love it and Steve can’t wait.

The video that he uses is full of clips of them together from the last year. The first one is of them slow dancing in his living room cropped enough so both their heads aren’t shown, then it’s a mix of clips he’s taken. Of his partner sitting in the driver seat a hand on the wheel and the other shaking in the direction of the camera but the face is blocked by wild curls, another clip is the camera zooming in on someone tuning a red warlock guitar. The clip switches right before the face is shown. Before it ends it’s a quick slideshow of a bunch of their pictures, ending on a single picture of the two of them kissing. Steve’s leaning on an amp and the other is pulling him close.

TheHair: I was barely alive, always hiding the pain. I was nobody before I loved you. #happyoneyearanniversary

He took a deep breath before finally hitting post and immediately putting the phone down and pushing away from the desk. Walking into the other room listening to the laughter and what sounds like an argument coming from the kitchen, he stood against the doorway to watch his boyfriend and his best friend argue over what looks to be their last brownie.

“It’s mine! My sunshine made it, so move away!” His boyfriend moved to grab it but his friend moved again, “come on Jeff! I had like two, Stevie doesn’t bake these often they’re special!”

Jeff rolled his eyes, shifting again to block the counter, “you live with the guy, Eddie! Just ask for more!”

He smiled as Eddie pouted, tried to grab it again before giving up and crossing his arms. “Fine. Take the brownie, I’ll just have- Stevie!” His whole face lights up and he moves quickly to throw himself at him, easily catching him in a hug. “My lovely, beautiful, amazing boyfriend. Stevie, darling, don’tcha think brownies sound wonderful right now?”

Laughing, he shakes his head and presses a quick kiss to Eddie’s lips before pulling away and finding Jeff shake his head and walking pass them, leaving them alone. “Did you and Jeff really just argue over a brownie?”

“Hm, maybe? How much did you hear? Wait, why are you back in here? I thought you had something to do in the studio? Wait, wait! You got the song back today right? How does it sound? Is it the one I read? Did it come together the way you wanted?” Eddie’s words flying out and he bounced out of his arms, looking around for his phone, “did you post it? Where’s my phone! JEFF, do you have my- no wait ah-ha!” He held up his phone with a wiggle before turning it on and facing away from him.

Before Steve knows it, he hears his own voice.

‘I was nobody, nobody, nobody. You called my name and my whole world changed. Cause I love somebody cause I love somebody. I was playing with fire didn’t care if it burned and I was barely alive, always hiding the hurt. I was nobody nobody nobody before I loved you’

“Stevie” Eddie’s voice is soft and there’s a sniffle, turning around he has tears in his eyes and a smile, “Stevie- oh my god. This is, this is beautiful, honey. I love it so much, I love you”

Eddie’s walking back towards him and Steve meets him half way, “I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for you, Eddie. I love you so much, happy anniversary my love”

~~~

So, I didn’t plan on writing more of this au. But I heard this song and immediately thought of Steve and of course, Steddie. But mostly Steve writing this for Eddie 🥰

Hopefully everyone also gets the same vibe I got when I first heard this song because I was listening to it while writing this and a little bit of doubt went into my ear and I had to double check with @i-less-than-three-you 🤣

ALSO! Just so everyone knows, Steve landed in some tough spots being by himself and not knowing what he’s doing yet. That’s why his account got ignored. He met Eddie at a bar and they don’t click immediately but became friends and it took another month before getting together officially. Eddie’s band, Corroded Coffin is an up and coming band and their manager ended up overhearing Steve singing to himself one day and fast forward to this fic, is signed and making music officially. (Steve still hasn’t met Robin yet)

I love the way someone looks when they’re looking right at their person and how in that moment, nothing else matters. Still one of my faves from their wedding last year!

This year has been the happiest year I've had with someone in my whole life. I couldn't ask for a better man to share my life with! #happyoneyearanniversary #bestboyfriend #ilovemyboyfriend

One year ago you convinced me to give you a chance. After eight years of you make advances I finally gave in. I'm glad I did. We have our ups, our downs, our lefts and rights but I would rather have those with you than with anyone else. I love you chunky butt @crystle_meth #happyoneyearanniversary

A quick recap of how Adam and I spent our one year wedding anniversary: - I went to yoga class this morning - Did grocery shopping - Reminisced over our wedding photos and posted some to Facebook - Watched some of the Steeler game - Finished watching Silence of the Lambs - Watched Battlestar Galactica - Watched YouTube videos showing how to make metal ingots - Also watched a YouTube video explaining a war that went on in Italy over a bucket - Ate wedding cake (which is still good!) - Had (and lost) multiple thumb wars with Adam AND... - Gave Adam his anniversary present as pictured (a star chart from our wedding day when the ceremony started) I'd say today was amazing and I look forward to many more anniversaries. #happyoneyearanniversary #happyweddinganniversary #herestomanymore #todaywasagoodday (at Imperial, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpf7eyGnkrD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1qoms9i9p3l7n

It’s been officially one year since @marty_ebert & I watched our first @seattlechawks & @buffalobills game together; the rest is history. By December he was panning our Mexico get away and by January Ms. Eloise was obsessed with him ❤️ It has been a fun, great year full of adventures and laughter that I can’t wait for more. He’s my partner in crime. Laughs at all my “dad jokes” and best of all knows me better than I do. He made the cut y’all 😂 #happyoneyearanniversary #hemadeit #wedidit #ouradventures #partnersincrime #cantwaitformore #mseloise #hegetsme #oneyearlater #ciwywt #callitwhatyouwant
