Summary
Eddie Munson has his finger on the self destruct button. He doesn't know how to stop, and doesn't care enough to try. After Steve finds him under Andy's fist with a laugh bouncing off his tongue, he does everything he can to bring him back from the ledge.
He isn't the only one that wants to show Eddie that his life is worth fighting for.

Eddie stared at the cream tile on the shower wall, “Must’ve followed me from my deal. Pulled me into the alley.”
Steve hummed. He moved the alcohol soaked cotton to Eddie’s lip. A breath pushed from behind his teeth. He closed his eyes against the sharp pain.
“Do I look like I’m buying that?”
Eddie looked at him. Steve moved his eyes from Eddie’s lip, his thumb brushing over it slightly as he continued cleaning. There was a knowing glint. He raised one eyebrow.
Just like that, Eddie realised how close they were standing. Steve had situated himself against the outside of Eddie’s legs, his belt buckle pressed against his thigh and one hand braced on the counter by Eddie’s hip. The proximity made him short of breath. He blamed it on the discomfort, not the brush of Steve’s skin against his bottom lip.

Summary
Steve Harrington never planned for Eddie Munson.
Steve was supposed to marry his high school sweetheart, have 2.5 children, and take over the family business. He was supposed to live a blissful life on a nondescript cul-de-sac, complete with a white picket fence and a closet full of tasteful polo shirts. He was supposed to make a graceful transition between being the golden boy and being the American Dream.
Mediocrity was what destiny had designed for Steve. Reality had other plans.

Summary
People are saying that when it rains, if you look into your television at midnight, you'll see your soulmate.
Steve Harrington is pretty sure that's just cootie-catcher nonsense. But something is definitely going on. Everyone is seeing the same people in the television—and the people they see keep turning up dead.

Summary
Steve knows the complicated jumble of feelings that Eddie is dealing with well–it’s the way he felt while Dustin told him not to worry about Max driving the car, pressing an ice pack to his battered face, the way he felt when he realized that, despite everything, they hadn’t been willing to leave him behind.
To be loved, to be shown love, is a concept that Steve still struggles with, even when he craves it desperately.
