All That You Ever Wanted From Me Was Sweet Nothing by t1red_gay

Summary
“'I’m in love with you,' Eddie says, so casual, like it isn’t 3PM on a Tuesday in the middle of a Family Video in Bumfuck, Indiana. Like they’re somewhere else, like he’s someone else. Like it’s nothing extraordinary."
Or:
Five times Eddie tells Steve he loves him, and one time Steve lets himself say it back.

Summary
Superman decided to try out a new costume. He did not consult the artist. In fairness, he was a little miffed that he'd been drawing weird porn of him, so. Fair's fair.

Summary
They’re on the couch watching a movie, Steve lying on his back, Eddie lying on top with his head on Steve’s chest and their legs tangled, when Eddie looks up, pointy chin on Steve’s sternum, and says, ‘Can I bite you?’
‘As in a feeding bite or a sexy bite?’ asks Steve, glancing across from the television.
Eddie grins toothily, eyes narrowing. ‘You gonna make me choose?’ he asks in reply, tone coy.

Summary
He sometimes imagines how it would feel to be in Munson's orbit. Sometimes imagines where his words would be. Hopes they'd curl along Munson's cheek bone where Steve could brush his thumb so easily. Or in the junction between his neck and shoulder, a place where Steve could drop kisses. Or along the curve of his hip, where Steve's palm could settle.
None of it matters because Steve never says anything.
---
or the one where Steve gets his words in high school and never says anything

Summary
Soul flowers aren’t a ticket to true love, he knows that well enough, but they do mean importance, significance, permanence. And so far no one has ever loved Steve significantly or permanently enough to leave some. Maybe that means he’s broken. Maybe that’s why he can’t leave any for her.
So Steve lets Jonathan take Nancy home that night, and tries not to feel too bitter about the matching bracelet of roses on Jonathan’s hand.

Summary
By the end of summer 1986, Eddie Munson and Steve Harrington have an arrangement that works. An arrangement built on shared joints, things left unsaid, and the safe, solid distance between them.
Or, on a rainy night five and a half months after it all, the walls start to fall apart.
This fic is a reupload of the series When the Night Comes Down in a chaptered format.

Summary
He wakes up to the melody of Kate Bush and the sound of Dustin and Lucas arguing about what sounds like who would win in a fight between Batman and Superman.
It’s like ice water dripping down his spine and Steve jerks up wide eyed and horrified as the kids look over at him in confusion.
(Or: Steve lives the same day over and over again trying to save his friends)

Summary
Eddie gives out touch so easily. Brushes Robin's hair from her face. Straightens Dustin's hat. Throws his arms around Nancy's shoulder before she laughs him off. He's tactile in a way that Steve could never be. In a way he hasn't been with Steve yet.

Summary
Eddie rears back, almost falling out of Steve’s lap in the process. His eyes roll wildly as he throws his head back and smudges blood across his teeth.
“Again,” Steve whimpers.
Beneath him, Steve is half-sprawled on the bed, propped up on his elbows. His eyes are glazed over and there’s sweat beading his brow. His neck is red with a thin film of blood mixed with Eddie’s spit. His skin is pale and the expression on his face is one of euphoria; he looks like one of those sculptures of a medieval saint experiencing a holy vision, caught in the throes of religious ecstasy. His broad chest heaves and his eyes are half-lidded, searching Eddie’s face.
He grips weakly at the front of Eddie’s shirt. “Don’t stop.”
Or: Eddie is a vampire. He's hungry, and Steve just wants to help. (Ulterior motives? No way.)

Need Brooks no Delay, but Late is Better Than Never by etlagiapet

Summary
The year is 2001. The Fellowship of the Ring is out in theaters, and Steve is being dragged along to the supposed most important day of Dustin's life.
The thing is, Eddie Munson's coming, too, and Steve hasn't spoken to him in nearly six years. Not since misaligned feelings and an ill-timed love confession created a rupture Steve didn't know how to repair.
“We just drifted apart, man. That’s all.”
Dustin sighs dramatically. “Was it because you figured out you liked dudes and freaked out?”
Steve winces. It’s a joke. He can tell by Dustin’s tone, knows he likes to poke fun about Steve’s sexuality after he identified as a self-proclaimed ladies' man for so long, but it’s never come up this way before. Steve could deflect, but something in him shifts and instead he says, “More like because I figured it out too late.”
“Ooooooh,” Dustin breathes, and Steve can all but imagine the lightbulb flashing to life above his head. It makes Steve think of Dustin’s old hat with THINKING CAP on the front. “Oh my god, that makes so much more sense."

Summary
“Steve,” he says, his voice sharp and pointed, and—oh shit, he’s still kind of using his DM tone, isn’t he?—Steve freezes. “Down on the ground and pick them up,” Eddie orders.
Steve hits the ground so hard, right onto his knees, that Eddie sees Dustin flinch in the corner of his vision. But all Eddie can do is look at Steve, who’s looking at him, and he’s sure the look of shock on Steve’s face is reflected right back on his own.
Because.
Holy shit.
OR five times Eddie’s in charge and their first time, when it’s Steve’s turn.

Summary
Steve was the perfect All-American boy.
He was the quarterback of his high school football team, dated the perfect girl, and had everything his parents could've dreamed of.
Steve had to remind himself of those facts often. Well, anytime he was near Eddie.
Or, a 60's AU where Steve is definitely not gay, but can't help but be drawn into the woods with Eddie Munson.

Summary
Steve leans against the side of the boathouse and lets Eddie fumble with the cheap Bic lighter for a minute before he clears his throat and says, “You want a light?”
It's hard to read his tone. There's a bitter, suspicious, self-defensive part of Eddie that wants to lash out, but instead he grips the lighter until the plastic creaks and says, “Sure. If you have one.”
“Yeah.” Steve digs in his pocket and comes up with a nice Zippo. He doesn't hand it to Eddie; instead, he flicks the flame on and holds it out for him to lean down, and there's an intimacy to it that Eddie wasn't quite expecting. Like one of those old Leyendecker paintings. He imagines this tableau sketched out in clean art deco lines: the prom king and the freak. A study in contrasts.

Or: In which Eddie survives the Upside Down, and Steve Harrington turns out to be nothing like he expects.

Summary
Rock band AU in which Robin, Eddie, Jonathan, Nancy, and Chrissy play in a band, and Steve has no choice but to hang out with the most annoying frontman in the world, Eddie Munson. Things escalate when they're forced to pretend they're in a relationship.
Modern AU, fake-dating (kind of).

Summary
Steve Harrington was losing his mind.
At least, he's pretty sure that’s what was happening, considering he kept seeing the ghost of a boy he let die, and it was starting to drive him actually crazy, in the Pennhurst kind of way.
Except.
Except he’d also always been a little bit gullible, always willing to jump into danger, to look at a situation that probably would be crazy and instead of turning and running, to drive right in. So instead of dealing with the ghost the way one probably should (which is to ignore it and maybe buy some holy water) Steve does the opposite.
And Eddie Munson, who is pretty sure he is not a ghost, is, as always, really fucking glad he does.
OR:
Five times Steve sees Eddie's ghost, and one time he sees something different.Bookmarked by LadyNogs

Summary
Eddie Munson just wanted to play hockey. That's almost all he's ever wanted, since he was old enough to realize it was an option for him. And now he's at the top of his game, one of the best players in the NHL.
Everything would have been perfect... if it wasn't for the small matter of the thing he's got going with his long time rival, goalie Steve Harrington.
