    Summary

    “So are we doing this then?”
    Eddie narrows his eyes.
    Okay. Fine. Skipping foreplay, sure.
    “Doing what, Harrington?”
    Irritation flickers across Steve’s features as he steps forward again, still breathing hard and unevenly. Still red in the face.
    “You’re really going to make me say it?” he whispers. “You want me to ask?”
    No,” Eddie grins, reaching up to tug at the red ascot tied around his stupid little sailor shirt. He leans in closer, hooking a finger into the waistband of his stupid little sailor shorts. His lips brush the shell of Steve’s ear as he speaks, voice pitched soft and low.
    “You’re not going to ask. You’re going to beg.

    Eddie spends his summer learning things about himself – such as the fact that the only thing he enjoys about his dreary summer job at the mall comes in the form of one Steve Harrington: fallen from grace, suited up in a borderline indecent uniform, easy to torment, and wound tighter than a drum.
    Steve spends his summer learning things about himself as a result of Eddie’s habitual tormenting.

    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

    “My lord,” Steve says and shifts onto his knees in an attempt to bow. To be humble. To show his respect. To admit to his own mortal inferiority. He grits his teeth through it.
    “Shit, my lord, you can cut the formalities, darling,” the god chuckles. “Though I do like seeing you on your knees.”
    “What should I call you then?” Steve asks. “Your divine presence? Celestial master? Pompous ass?”
    The god just laughs and glances over his shoulder at his own ass.
    “Not much there to be considered pompous, I’m afraid,” he says before he turns back to Steve, no trace of the anger that Steve is choking on found in his face. “I like celestial master, has some dramatic flair to it. But Eddie will do just fine.”
    “God of wine making and pleasure,” Steve says automatically.
    “Also of orchards and fruit, fertility, ritual madness, religious ecstasy and theater, darling,” Eddie does a little bow himself. “At your service.”

    or: after helping Tommy slay the minotaur, Steve gets left behind on a small island to die. That's where he meets Eddie, god of wine and pleasure. Steve doesn't like gods, but this one is different. This one might help him heal from all his trauma, guilt, and broken heart.

    Summary

    Steve makes a face at Eddie. “You've imagined doing stuff with a guy?”

    “Yeah, man,” Eddie replies, spreading his hands wide. “Doesn't everyone?”

    Steve tilts his head to the side as he thinks. Maybe not very often, but his freshman year when Davey Riggs had been swim team captain? Yeah, he had definitely imagined some stuff that had made trips to the locker room kinda awkward.

    “Yeah, that's true,” Steve answers, nodding. “I wonder why everybody acts like it's so gross, though.”

     

    In the summer of 1986, Steve and Eddie have some perfectly normal fun between a couple of perfectly normal dudes.

    Summary

    “Oh, then who would you normally be into?” Eddie holds the joint slightly away from his mouth while carefully inspecting Steve.
    “I don’t know, good sense of humor….”
    “Check.”
    “Has dreams and ambitions….”
    “Check.”
    “Enjoys hanging out and doing nothing sometimes, just wants to spend time with me….”
    “Uh, hello? Check.” Eddie takes a pull off the joint and makes a motion with his free hand between the two of them.
    “Wouldn’t need me to take care of him….”
    “Like has his own place? His own job? And knows how to do his own laundry? Check, check, check.”
    “You’re ridiculous.” Steve takes the joint from Eddie’s fingers and already feels its effect.

    -or-
    Steve decides to move to Chicago for a fresh start after everything is settled with Vecna. Three years later, he returns to Hawkins for the kids’ graduation and rekindles some feelings he discovered years earlier for Eddie.

    Summary

    The kiss is brief, only a second or two, not even long enough for Steve to really register what's happening before Eddie pulls away. Steve’s frozen in place, his arms still wrapped around Eddie.

    Steve blinks down at him. "What?" he says stupidly. What?

    Eddie closes his eyes, a weak smile on his lips. "Something to remember me by."

    "You're not dying," Steve says. It feels like his mouth isn't attached to his brain anymore; the inside of his head is a dial tone.

    "Of course I am," Eddie says, eyes still closed. "I'm dying right now."

    "You're not, though." His voice keeps getting higher, for some reason. "You're not going to die here."

    "Spare me the pity, Harrington, I know—"

    "You're literally not dying right now." His whole body is hot. Is he sweating? "You lost some blood but they didn't get deep enough—I looked—you're going to be fine."

    There's a pause. "I'm going to be fine?" Eddie asks, voice also going high and thin. "You're—sure?"

    "Yes."

    "Fascinating. Great. Are you—could you do me a favor, then, and maybe just—leave me here anyway?"

    "What?" Steve says. The dial tone gets louder. "No. Why?"

    "No reason," Eddie says, voice tight.

    Summary

    Together, they turned to stare at Harrington, who had hunched further into himself now that Eddie was gone from the table.

    “If he turns on us I’m blaming you.” Gareth grumbled finally, and tried not to let the smile that broke out on Eddie’s face effect him.

    “Glad to hear you’re on board, Garebear.” Eddie said, patting his shoulder hard.

    AKA the entirety of Hellfire, prompted by one Eddie, “herder of misfits, freaks and geeks” decide to expand their circle to adopt a jock instead.

    Summary

    Derek has always kept his distance from Stiles, refusing to act on his instinctive desire for the pale, doe-eyed human. But at what cost? When circumstances reveal the horrors that Stiles has suffered due to Derek's self-imposed distance, will the Alpha be able to make it right before it's too late?

    ______________________________________________________

    “Who are you to the pack?” the hunter asked.

    “I’m nobody.” Stiles answered plainly.

    And a harsh chill ran through Derek’s body. His breath caught in his throat because… because Stiles’ heart… it had remained steady. Stiles… actually believed that. Believed that he was ‘nobody.’ How could Stiles believe that?

    Summary

    Eddie noses at his cheek. "Wanna tell me what’s bothering you?”

    "Nothing's bothering me, I’m fine.”

    “You know nothing you say could ever be stupid, sweetie pie.”

    Steve’s face goes warm again and Eddie hums as his nose drags along his cheek. “Mm, yeah, you are a sweetie pie, aren’t you? Could eat you up with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. If I knifed you open, bet you’d taste like caramel and apples.”

    "What the fuck?" Steve moans.

    -

    After months of fooling around and fucking, of desperate touches and frantic kisses and leaving marks on each other under the cover of darkness, Steve feels himself falling for Eddie.

    He wants to ask him out on a date, but he knows Eddie just wants to fuck him.

    "No offense but your parents are kind of shitty. No worries though, my uncle will adopt you. He's not a well-respected lawyer, BUT he cooks good scrambled eggs, and when there’s a leak somewhere in the house? Well, let’s just say that motherfucking leak doesn’t stand a chance against Wayne."

    Steve giggles and Eddie feels the little puffs of air on his neck. It makes him all warm and giddy.

    “You're funny,” Steve coos and presses a trail of soft kisses along Eddie’s collarbone. It makes him melt back into the sheets.

    When the sound of heavy knocking on the motel room door startles them out of their bliss, it feels like the air temperature in the room drops twenty degrees.

    "Russellville Police Department, open up, please."

    Eddie and Steve flail to untangle themselves from the sheets. They rush to stand at the foot of the bed, frozen.

    "Shit. What do we do?" Eddie mouths.

    Or:

    Post season 4, Steve Harrington is implicated in the murder of Chrissy Cunningham for being seen stealing an RV with Eddie Munson. Steve and Eddie fall in love while running from the cops.

    Summary

    When Steve Harrington starts getting cryptic postcards in the mail in the fall of 1988, he finds that he can't ignore them, and what they might mean. The others have moved on. Robin, Nancy and Jonathan are finishing college and getting jobs, and the kids are close to graduating.
    With little else to do in the late spring of '89, and just wanting to know the truth, he decides to follow the bread crumb trail these post cards have created, and go in search of their sender. Maybe it'll be one last nice thing he can do for the Party before they all go their separate ways for good, well and truly leaving him in the dust. What starts out as a trip to find one missing person, whom they all assumed to be dead, turns into a journey that allows him to find himself along the way.
    Or: The summertime beach fic that absolutely no one asked for, because Steve Harrington deserves a vacation.
