Summary
"How'd it start for you?" Eddie asks.
Steve sighs and gestures to the pool with his cigarette. "Right here," he says. Eddie tilts his head, uncomprehending. Such a tiny gesture, yet it makes something in Steve cringe, knowing what it means.
"Has anybody told you about Barb?" he asks. Eddie shakes his head.
-
Steve teaches Eddie how to swim, and confronts a few things about himself in the process.

Summary
“Sure, alright,” Eddie agreed. His expression softened, and he rolled his shoulders back, opening up. “I’ll watch your little sheepies for you.”
“Really?” Steve grinned, “Man, that’s awesome. Thank you so much—”
“I just gotta ask one thing,” Eddie interrupted, leaning over the table and closer to Steve.
“Yeah, man,” he said, voice tight. “Anything.”
“Why’d you leave me down there, Steve?”
***
18 months after the earthquake, Steve starts having bad dreams. Which wouldn’t mean anything if it weren’t for the nosebleeds and the headaches. Hearing that clock can’t be great. Then Will feels Vecna getting close, and Steve thinks it might be best for him to sacrifice himself. He’s nice like that.
(my season 5 fix it. make it steddie with a dash of byler)

Summary
Steve was still adjusting. Definitely not quite back to normal – probably wouldn’t ever be normal again, if he were honest with himself – but he was on his way to something normal adjacent, and that had to count for something.
OR:
As Steve navigates the complicated twists and turns and backslides of recovery, he slowly learns what it's like to have people he can rely on. It's a novel concept.

Summary
He finds her on Friday, the 18th of November, 1983. She's a small kid, out in the woods and the freezing cold, the first time he's ever seen a girl with hair that short. His parents are leaving for some business trip in the morning. He is going to be alone.
She's alone.
Steve hates the idea of another kid growing up alone.(In which Steve finds Eleven in the winter of ‘83, before Hopper could, and the sudden changes that pull apart his life. Some are far deeper in the bones than he ever could've imagined.)
