Summary
It was really just his luck that a hulking monster lumbered out of the woods and directly onto his driveway. Just his luck that he threw enough parties when his parents were gone that the neighbors had long tuned out any noise that came from his yard. Just a nice cherry on top of the fucking cake that, even if anyone did hear him screaming when claws tangled in his jacket and pulled, Steve honestly wasn’t sure they’d have cared enough to bother anyway.
OR:
Months before El ripped open the gate at Hawkins Lab, the Demogorgon started ripping tears of its own. Months before it found Will Byers, it found Steve Harrington.

"Go on, Munson," Steve says, and he can't help smiling until his lip hurts, because he's starting to think that he didn't get this wrong after all. "Ask me out."
"Really?" The amusement slips into something that feels more frantic. "You're going to rush me on this?"
"It's technically tomorrow already." Steve can feel them both hovering on the edge of something, and for once he doesn't think he's afraid of the drop. "No time like the present, right?"
"You look fit to drop right now." Eddie looks a little wild while he says it, like he doesn't really want to.
"That means you're effectively seeing me at my worst, so it's all up from here."
"How are you assuming that was a comment on– do you have any idea how annoyingly attractive you still are? I can't believe you're trying to convince me, I feel like I'm dying."
"Ask me." Steve decides to push his bravery a touch further and drops his hand to where Eddie's still rests on the bed.

Summary
Steve won’t ever be kept and cared for in the way he craves. He won’t ever be held like he’s something small and precious and breakable. He won’t ever be treated softly by virtue of his designation.
He won’t ever have kids in the way that he so desperately wants to.
He won’t ever be an omega.
And if he stays a beta, he can’t be Eddie’s true mate, either. He can’t be his mate at all: the bite won’t stick. The scar won’t manifest and neither will the bond. Their body chemistry won’t allow it. Any attempt at a claim will slide off of his skin like droplets of water and heal right up.
Genetically and physiologically incompatible.
𓆩⟡𓆪
In a world where alpha and omega presentations are triggered by the stress of traumatic events, Eddie Munson presents as an alpha the minute he’s dragged out of the Upside Down and into Hawkins Memorial Hospital.
Steve Harrington has been a beta his whole life.

Eddie stares at him for a second, unmoving. Then he shakes himself out of his stupor and says, “Yeah. Uh. Next Monday. Starting PT and stuff. Gotta learn how to walk again, move my hand, all that super fun stuff. Wayne says that they’re gonna make me exercise, Steve. It’s gonna suck.”
“You’ll be fine,” Steve tells him. “I’ll come visit you.”
“Yeah?” Eddie asks. He sits up a bit, leans forward as much as he can. “You will?”
“Every day, if I can,” he says, entirely honest.
“What about your job?”
Steve laughs. “Eddie, I’ve been in this hospital nonstop for the past—I don’t even know. If I haven’t lost my job already…”
“Oh,” Eddie says yet again. “Right. I forgot. Sorry. I want you to visit me. Every day. If you can. That would be really nice.”

Summary
A few months after Starcourt, Steve moves out of his parents' house and into a friend of a friend's empty RV. What follows is a long six months of unintentional minimalism, scraping by on two bucks an hour, and staring at the specter that haunts the other side of the trailer park. Meanwhile, Robin gets a song stuck in her head.
A season four rewrite.

They're quiet for a couple minutes, watching the girls dance, and Steve decides to take his chance. "I hope you weren't going to try to hook up with Chrissy tonight."
"No? No no no. God no," Eddie says, the words falling out of his mouth like water. "I—no cheerleaders for me, you know?"
"Cool," Steve says.
"So, like, if you're trying to, you know—with her—if that's your type, then, like, by all means—"
"She's not my type," Steve says. "I prefer, you know, the weird ones."
"Ah," Eddie says. "Like Robin."
Steve shakes his head. "Not weird enough for me, turns out. And her taste is kinda conventional anyway."
"Oh, right," Eddie says, nodding along. It seems to take him a moment to digest all that; he waves his hands around like he's physically connecting all the dots. "Then—what?"
Steve stares him dead in the eyes.

Eddie feels dazed, and he’s pretty sure it’s not just the drugs and the injuries and the two-day coma. “Yeah, okay,” he says. “Yeah. No dying.”
“That’s right,” Steve says. “That’s the agreement we came to.”
“I’m getting, like, so good at it.”
“You could do better.”
Eddie smiles, looks up at Steve’s face. He’s so fucking handsome. And it didn’t even get fucked up this time. And he wants to ask Eddie Munson on a date. The world really must be ending.

Summary
Eddie will never. Won’t ever roll over, won’t ever be okay with it. Will keep roaming the outskirts of the world -far away from traitors and feigned security- until he drops dead. Or until he’s killed. Eaten.
“How long are you staying?” Steve asks and Eddie wonders if he can tell he’s pissed him off. Probably. Steve’s good at that, at figuring things out. At acting dumber than he is.
“Leaving in a day or two.”
Steve nods, leans over and presses his cigarette into the ashtray between them.
“Same time and place tomorrow?”
Eddie flicks his gaze towards Steve who’s getting up, who’s about to leave.
The mixture of relief and disappointment that clashes inside of Eddie at Steve’s departure isn’t unfamiliar. He swallows down the urge to ask him to stay.“Yeah, sure.”

He weaved down the side streets as elegantly as he could with his hulking body and made his way into the Apothecary, the Amulet sitting proudly on Steve6969’s beefy troll chest.
"Hello gorgeous!" Steve cheerily announced.
"You are wearing an Amulet of Union." The NPC declared, in almost deadpan tones. "I hope that isn't for me."
"You betcha, sweet cheeks. I wanna make an honest...demon out of you."

“Where— uh. Where are you gonna bury him?” Eddie asks. “We’ve got… We’ve got some of his stuff. A box. We thought maybe…”
“That’s a fine idea, son,” Steve’s grandpa says. And then, “Next to his parents seems the most fitting.”
And— oh.
Oh, God.
No.
Steve’s parents are—
Are they dead too?

Summary
When Steve Harrington approaches him in the cafeteria looking like hell and acting oddly concerned about his well-being, Eddie wants to write it off as a bad trip but he recognizes the haunted look of grief from his own experiences following the death of his uncle, and he’s not just going to turn his back if someone’s in need of a friend, even if it is his former bully. As the two grow closer he realizes that there’s more going on with Steve than just grief.

This makes Eddie frown. “What does he know about me?”
“Ed, I barely know shit about you. What am I gonna tell him?”
“I don’t know, Steve, like, that I sell weed to underage kids? That I break and enter on the reg? That I was the one who left the roadkill on Principal Higgins' porch? You’ve got kind of a lot of dirt on me.”
Steve shrugs. “He’s got a vow of silence.”
“You’re thinking of monks, dude. Shrinks can still rat you out for crimes.”
“I don’t think he wants to rat you out. I think he just… wants to see…” Steve goes quiet.
“See what? My tattoo? My battle jacket? My long hair? Wants to see the freak?”
“No, man.” Steve’s hand brushes at where his hair used to be, the habit unchanged even though there’s nothing there anymore. It gets bristly in between shaves, but he’s mostly been keeping it bald. “It’s me, okay? I want you there. He said it was okay, though.”
Oh. Well, that’s different. If it’s Steve asking, he can’t just say no. -

Jim is starting to put it together. The waiting all day to eat. The bruise on his jaw. The lack of money for food. God, the kid probably walked six miles to get here.
Jim isn't stupid, he can connect the dots. But Jim also knows when not to push things. When not to rock the boat. When sometimes, even if it pains him, helping someone can be a lost cause.

Summary
Eddie Munson isn't a very good vampire. He doesn't like to hunt and has never bitten a human in the couple of years since being turned. The problem is that animal blood can only sustain him for so long.
Chicago, Illinois, 1993. Eddie follows the recommendation of another vampire to visit a 'donor,' a human who lets vampires feed off them for a living. What he's not expecting is for said donor to be a ghost from high school past in the shape of Steve Harrington.
"The price is $50 per bite," Steve explained with what sounded like a well-practiced spiel. "That's teeth breaking skin. You choose where you want to bite, but if it's below the belt I'm charging an extra $20 per bite." He paused for a moment, leveling a scrutinizing gaze on Eddie until the vampire nodded his understanding.
Steve's eyebrows lifted. "I'm going to need verbal confirmation, please."
And oh, that tone did something for Eddie. He'd probably be blushing if he had enough blood in his system to reach the right places. As it was, he hadn't had a proper meal in weeks. So he was definitely lacking a human-like complexion.

"Don't stop."
Eddie tore his eyes back up to Steve's face with surprise. "What?"
"Bite me again."
Eddie was speechless for a moment, wide eyes taking in the sight in front of him. Steve with his eyes dark with pleasure, pupils dilated and eyebrows furrowed, breath coming quick and heavy through parted lips, sweat glistening across his hairline, muscles tense, fresh bite marks on his neck. Eddie's bite marks.
Eddie licked his lips, his mouth suddenly dry. "Is this some kinda ploy to get more money out of me?"
Steve gave a huff of frustration, fingers clenching in Eddie's curls. "Just shut the fuck up and bite me."
"Bossy," Eddie tsked a split second before he was being yanked forward. Or maybe he dove forward. Either way, his mouth was on Steve's neck again, and the details on how he got there weren't that important. He found a spot an inch lower than his previous bite and sank his fangs into the muscle there. At this point his hunger was mostly sated, so this was a bite simply for biting’s sake and, fuck, was it satisfying.

It’s still dark when Steve throws Eddie’s door open. It’s with such force that he’s startled awake, almost falling from his bed. He blinks at him, bleary-eyed, opening his mouth to ask what the emergency is, but words tumble from Steve’s mouth before he can say a word.
“Robin’s alive.”

Steve doesn’t even blink, immediately turning to Robin and crouching down beside her. His hands hover above her, like he’s afraid to touch her for fear of her disappearing again.
“Robin,” he murmurs, finally reaching forward to tuck her hair behind her ear. “Robs, it’s me, I’m here, I’ve got you.”
For a moment, Robin doesn’t so much as twitch, and Eddie’s heart sinks, fearing the worst.
But then she stirs, letting out a low groan, and her eyes slowly open, hazy and unfocused.
“Stevie?” she mumbles, and Steve lets out a soft, relieved laugh.

Eddie was turned inside out and back to front and right side up for months to make sure he was just the same as he always was. Eddie went into the Upside Down and lived to tell the tale beyond all scientific logic. He was chewed up and spit out and he wasn’t much different whatsoever.
Eddie Munson came back right.
Except for one thing.
Eddie Munson came back right, except for now, he could see that Steve Harrington never was.

“Stop, stop!” Eddie yelped, flinging himself backwards against the couch.
Steve pulled back and sat down on his heels. His hand was still rubbing Eddie’s thigh.
“I’m sorry,” said Steve. He still looked normal in the dim light. “That was a bit much, huh?”
Eddie realised his chest was heaving as he tried to catch his breath.
“I want to go to bed,” panted Eddie. “I want to leave,”
Steve shifted sideways to sit fully on the floor, clearing Eddie’s path to the stairway. If it was bright out Eddie probably wouldn’t have been able to mistake his expression as one of true concern.
“You’re not a prisoner, Eddie,” said Steve, clearly aiming for levity.

The kid brushes past Eddie and into the house, still not looking as he shouts back, “Or you could stay and watch.” This, of course, is said with another one of those shit eating, butter wouldn't melt in my mouth grins of his as he goes.
Eddie might kill him.
From the car, Creepy Baker — Steve — leans forward to look out the passenger side window. He gives Eddie an up and down so slow and through he feels flayed open, stripped of not only his clothes but his skin and sinew, pared down to the bone. He feels seen in a way that thrills him and terrifies him in equal measure, his ears burning and his fingers tingling with something.
Eddie might buy Dustin a PS5 and all the games he could ask for.
“You don’t mind, Mr Dungeon Master?” Steve calls, turning off the ignition and stepping out of his car before he even gets an answer.

Summary
Steve sits down heavily on Eddie’s other side. He can feel body heat radiating from the boy next to him and that’s also kind of killing him, a little bit, making him breathless like when he’s underwater for too long.
The funny thing is that Eddie makes Steve feel like this a lot. The even funnier thing is that Steve seeks it out. It’s a game at this point, seeing how long he can stay under the lake’s vast surface. One of these days he’s going to drown and he will have died a happy man.

“Uncle Wayne!” Eddie gets down from the counter and stumbles on the tiled floor. “We were—”
“Save it, son, I know what you were doing, and it don’t matter.” Wayne’s mouth curls into a grin that’s gentler than any expression Steve has ever seen him make. “Just do me a favor. Take it to the bedroom if it gets any steamier.”
“Mr. Munson, I would never—” Steve stammers, at the same time that Eddie cries “Please never say the word steamier again.”

Steve continues, “I’m like a dog. Some kind of animal. I want things and I dig for them. I’m obedient when I want to be. I come when I’m called. Can’t help it. I think there’s something wrong with me.”
He can’t stop the words tumbling from his mouth. He knows he must sound nuts, and hopes Eddie can hear past the clear slur in his words.
