Summary
“I have a California King.”
Eddie’s eyes snap back open. “My favorite words after ‘all-inclusive.’”
“Breakfast will be served promptly at ten.”
Eddie squints. “Is there, like, a live-in butler I missed, or something?”
Steve rolls his eyes. “No, I can cook. I’m good in the kitchen.”
“My second favorite room a guy can tell me he’s ‘good in.’” Eddie sends a wink Steve’s way for good measure.

Summary
“Steve,” Eddie repeats softly. Steve’s eyes look into his, shining like he’s already there, like he’s already floating. “If you want something, you gotta ask for it.”
Steve’s eyes flutter, and he looks like he wants to let out a whine, glancing across Eddie’s face again like he’s forgotten where they are.
“Fuck me,” he says weakly, and the words crawl under Eddie’s skin like they belong there. “Please. Will you please fuck me?”
//
or; Steve and Eddie start hooking up and it makes them both happier than it should.

Summary
“You’ll have to forgive me if I don’t believe you, Harrington. Straight boys don’t get off thinking about dick. That’s an indisputable fact of the universe, and a key point in my own personal doctrine.”
And maybe Steve should laugh, shrug, call it a night. He should do that, re-examine all of this when he’s sober.
He doesn’t. Instead, he says, “Try me.”
Eddie lifts himself up on an elbow, turning to his side so that he’s looming over Steve when he says, “Just to confirm…”
Steve nods encouragingly, bolstered by the absence of a dismissive laugh, an awkward change of topic.
“You’re saying that you want me,” Eddie continues, eyes darting between Steve’s, “to talk about fucking a dude. To see if you get hard.”
—
Or; Steve’s pretty sure he could get hard while thinking about gay sex, even though he’s straight. Eddie’s just along for the ride.

Summary
'What the hell is Eddie Munson doing here?
Probably for the same reason Steve is.
"—how many times I've said that I will not be conforming to society's bullshit expectations of—oh." Eddie cuts himself off when he notices Steve sitting criss-cross by the pool.
He eyes Steve carefully before moving closer, head tilted and dark eyes narrowed. Eddie is apparently notorious for being hot-headed, a complete maniac, a freak. Steve isn't sure how any interaction between the two of them will go, what with them being complete polar opposites.
"What is a pretty boy like you doing out here all alone?" Eddie asks.
Steve finds himself flushing at the comment. Eddie is closer now, still looking at him intently, and Steve pulls his eyes away, staring at the water rippling underneath his palm.
"Party blows."'
~Rising NBA star Steve Harrington lives for parties, booze, and casual sex...until he meets Eddie Munson, magnetic frontman of 1989’s hottest metal band, Corroded Coffin. Their secret nights blur friendship and something more, but fame, drugs, and Eddie’s refusal to believe in love threaten to divide them. Can they survive the chaos, or will love be the song Eddie never writes?

Summary
Steve Harrington didn’t know what love was. He thought he did, a few times. He thought he loved his nanny the way his mother didn’t love him. He thought he loved Nancy the way he hadn’t loved someone else before her. He was wrong about that though, so how would he really know? He didn’t think he’d know what love was if it shoved itself in his face, called him an idiot, and bit him. He knew what love wasn’t, and that didn’t seem good enough. But when he was surrounded by club lights and the alcohol swam through his head, he felt like maybe he could learn, or least pretend for the night until he didn’t feel alone anymore; until he drove himself home in the early morning and felt the ache in his bones that said someone had been there with him, if only for a moment.

Summary
Eddie Munson has no clue about the hanky code. Which becomes painfully clear when Steve Harrington—who’s been trying to flirt with him by showing up at Eddie's auto shop with increasingly suspicious car troubles—has to spell it out.
Turns out, Eddie might not know much about the hanky code—but he does know how to make Steve fall for him without even trying.
"You just said I was a bottom, out of the blue, on a Tuesday afternoon, and you're gonna tell me to forget it?"
"I just thought you were, like—signalling."
Eddie squints harder.
"Signalling?""Yeah?"
"Signalling what? That I need a better life because I dropped out of high school and work in a garage for pennies?"

Summary
When Eddie Munson wakes from a month-long coma, the apocalypse has already started without him. The air is poisonous and monsters roam the streets of a half-destroyed Hawkins, but he's also got problems of a more personal nature: For one thing, Eddie's so weak he can barely walk on his own, and he's pretty sure there's something wrong with him, like, emotionally.
For another, there's the fact that Steve Harrington has begun turning into some kind of vampiric Upside Down creature. Also, he's into men apparently, and more specifically: into Eddie. So there's that.
The way Eddie sees it, that leaves him with three problems to solve - one, saving the world, ergo destroying the Demobats' nest in the Rightside Up, and closing the cross of rifts splitting the town. Two, saving his friends, so waking Max from her coma, and guiding Steve (read: domming Steve) into figuring out his new vampiric powers without hurting anyone, or getting his head blown off by their very trigger-happy "allies". And three: figuring out what it really means to care for someone, and how far he's willing to go for the man he's rapidly becoming unhealthily obsessed with.
Here's to turning into the monsters people always said they were.

Summary
The Harrington Family is rich, disgustingly rich.
The only problem is that their wealth comes from loan sharking and old connections to the mafia. But Richard Harrington is an ambitious man and he won't let the shadow of the past influence his future: all he needs is a famous name that will finally clean their, but none is willing to be associated with the Harrington family. None apart from Alan Munson, the member of a prestigious family now in disgrace, who immediately accepts the idea of marrying his son to Harrington’s son.
What they don’t know is that Steve has his own plan: marry Eddie and get a divorce by consent after a few months, so both the boys will be finally free from their families.
It looks like a perfect plan, until a car crash messes everything up.
When Steve wakes up he doesn’t remember Eddie or their plan and he truly believes that they got married for love. Didn’t they?

“Are you drunk, Steve? Do you need me to pick you up?”
“No, I’m home. With a warm beer that tastes like piss thinking about my vows.”
“Vows? What are you talking about?”
“It was a busy night.”
“I got it,” Robin replies, “but I’m still confused. Did you really say vows?”Series

Summary
Steve’s pool unearthed a portal to another world in 1983 and now, Steve’s made his living by exploring and discovering other worlds. Years ago, Eddie had asked why Steve chose something so grueling.
“We know there’s shit out there that hasn’t been explained, man.” Steve says with an exhale, smoke curling up towards the midnight sky with Eddie in his backyard. “Things that could be dangerous, things that could change how we all see like, just life in general, y’know? I don’t know, I guess if I can understand the universe a little bit better, the Upside Down might make more sense and it won’t feel like this horror movie that crashed through Byers’ walls for no fucking reason and ruined all of our lives.”
Eddie smiles at the memory as Steve ushers him into the dome of the observatory, watching as he fiddles with the different lens and opens the little slit in the roof to position the telescope.
Or, Steve Harrington devotes his life to understanding the inexplicable mysteries of the universe around them, including his feelings for Eddie Munson.

And with Ally shoving her soft hand down his pants and into his boxers, it ought to be extremely easy to tune out the quiet sound of his roommate’s voice, saying something he can’t even hear.
But then, all of a sudden—he can hear it.
“That’s it, baby, look at you,” Eddie coos from beyond the wall. Then a condescending laugh. “Come on, honey, you can do better than that.”
Holy shit.

Summary
“Steven,” Eddie breathes venomously. He gestures to the condom-scattered floor. “Would you like to explain to me why I had a guy leave my room unfucked half an hour ago?”
(The prank war had started innocently enough, but it quickly devolved into a game of cockblocking, which in Eddie's opinion, is The Worst Game Of All Time.)

"Okay, okay, fine. Jeez. You're not stupid, man, I'm stupid. And a baby."
"As you said."
"As I said," Eddie agrees, and takes a deep breath, "and I'm also a liar, because I didn't pop those stitches falling out of bed, actually."
Steve blinks, mercifully leaning back. "No?"
"Nope," Eddie presses out. "Actually, I was, uh." He forces himself to exhale, and says, "I was trying to rub one out."
Steve stares at him. "What?"
"You know," Eddie says nervously. "Crankin' the hog. Whacking off. Jerkin' the gerkin. Stroking the one-eyed snake -"
"No I got that," Steve says, and Eddie immediately shuts up, "you're saying that's how you tore your sutures?"
"Yes."
"By -"
"Yep."
"Oh my God," Steve says faintly, then starts laughing.
(Eddie can't get off. Steve offers to help.)

“I thought you were helping me with the morning feeding?”
“Stevie! I am helping!” With his free hand, Eddie motions to the gaggle of animals clamoring for their attention.
“You’re making another Tiktok video. That’s not helping.” Steve sighs but his lips pull up in a hint of a smile.
Jabbing a finger into Steve’s side to make him yelp and skitter away, Eddie taps the record button and grins at the camera on his phone, “Hey-howdy-hey folks! Welcome to another beauuu-ti-ful morning here at Homesteddie Farms! Say hi to the farm fans, Steve.”
Steve huffs a breath, before shaking his head and saying in a fond tone, “Hey farm fans!” Then he grunts out an 'oof' as one of the goats stands up on it’s hind legs, head butts Steve in the thigh and begins to nibble on the raggedy bottom of his cut off overall shorts. “Madmartigan! Get down.”

Summary
After his brush with death, Eddie awakens to find himself in a plaid room with plaid sheets and Steve Harrington watching over him. The road to recovery is lined with realizations; his bravery was actually selfishness, his feelings for the former King of Hawkins Hight might be more than just a little crush, and - worst of all - he's dying. Doing what Munson's do best, Eddie runs leaving a shell-shocked Steve to pick up the pieces of a relationship that could have been.
Over the next several years Eddie's career skyrockets while Steve's left to face the aftermath of the end of the world alone. Though they both try and move on, they keep finding their way back to each other. Time and time again they meet, hoping that this time they'll finally get it right only for life and self-sabotage to get in their ways again. With his health declining rapidly Eddie writes one final album, Asphodel, his love letter he never got to send.
With one last hope to see Eddie again, and coughing up twisted flowers of his own, Steve goes to Eddie's Swansong performance. With one last chance the pair have a choice to make; confess their feelings or suffocate on their love

Summary
Seven years and some change after the events that lead to Hawkins being permanently evacuated, Steve Harrington is at a Pride Parade in San Francisco.
It's also been seven years and some change since the guy that made Steve Harrington have his Big Bisexual Crisis died tragically, playing the hero and leaving a gnawing emptiness that Steve has never been able to fill with anyone or anything else.
So... why is it that someone who unmistakably IS Eddie Munson happens to be standing just across the street as the floats and processions pass by?

Summary
“Well, well, well, if it isn’t my terrible mailman,” the man jests, letting his weight fall against the half-opened door. “To what do I owe the displeasure?”
“It seems like some of your mail has slipped through the cracks at the post office,” Steve says with an air of causality he hopes pays off. “M’just here to deliver it and apologize for the inconvenience.”
“Right, ‘cause the post office “lost” it. Not my mailman who hates my house.”
“I don’t hate your house,” Steve objects.
“That’s two lies in under a minute. I don’t think your boss will be too happy to learn that you’re lying to your customers."
Or:
The year is 1991, and Steve Harrington is working as a mail carrier who is pettily withholding mail from Eddie. When Eddie threatens Steve’s job, he is forced into making amends by hand-delivering the missing mail. In a surprising twist, Steve and Eddie end up hitting it off, and the two start spending an alarming amount of Steve’s lunch breaks getting to know each other.
The more time they spend together, the less time Steve spends delivering mail, which might just end up costing him his job and his newfound relationship with Eddie.

Summary
This is a love story.
It's easy to say that looking back now on the eighteen years have past. time is a strange mistress and she does as she pleases. But to start at the end is a strange place to start any story.
When Rainbow Graveyard made it, performing as his alter ego Munster, should have been everything Eddie had wanted.
But Eddie's not a person who was built to be loved, and doesn't know what to do with the feelings that are growing for his bandmate by the day. The upside down might not have killed him, but Eddie never imagined that being on stage with Steve every night would be the thing that finally finished him off.When he got on stage, Steve's alter ego Knocks took the wheel, and what Knocks wanted was Munster. But that wasn't Steve, Steve was too much, loved too fast and hard, destroying everyone and everything he touched. Including himself.
It was all so much easier before the world of music came knocking on the door, when it was just him and Eddie against the world. Now something unsaid hangs heavy over them both.
But that is the middle of our tale.
Our story starts with a guitar, and a promise. And rain, because it always rains in a love story.- Language:

Summary
"He is in a valley, it seems, treeless and dead, nothing but rock mountain at his back, and a downward slope ahead. A slope filled with demogorgon remains, by the look of it. An ash particle caresses his cheek and melts. He catches one with his hand and watches it dissolve. Snow. Snow and ash. Eddie remembers some of Dustin’s tales about the Russians, how they took Harrington and Buckley, and wonders if he’s been taken too."
Eddie wakes up in an unrecognizable part of the Upside Down, lost and alone. Steve keeps waking up in a desolate Hawkins, thinking Eddie is dead.
