Summary
“Eddie? Are you-are you there?”
Fuck, did he really sound that bad? His voice sounded raw, and now that he thought about it he wasn’t sure when the last time he’d actually spoken to someone was. Sunday at work? Or Saturday with the kids? He honestly couldn’t even remember what day it was.
“Well, well. I dreamt of the day King Steve would call lil’ ol’ me,” Eddies voice said, carrying through the walkie with only a little static. “What’s up, big boy?”
Steve’s stomach fluttered with the nickname—the same name Eddie had called him in that RV, his face so close that Steve could feel his breath across his cheeks. Normally he’d welcome the feeling, but it only served to remind him how empty his stomach was.
“Uh- I need,” he paused, swallowing around the lump in his throat. “Are you busy?”
“For you, sweetheart? Never.”
“Can you come over?” Steve rushed to get out, knowing his cheeks would be burning red if he wasn’t struggling to simply remember how to breathe. “I-I need help. Fuck, I need a lot of help.”

Steve Harrington & the Summer of '85 by notlittlebasingse
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
13 Jul 2022
Tags
Summary
Before the Russians and the Mind Flayer, and before Dustin Henderson returned from Camp Know Where, Steve Harrington was just a guy working at a mall. A guy with no prospects, romantic or otherwise. He sold mediocre ice cream at the Scoops Ahoy, and sometimes, he spent his off days, like everyone else in Hawkins, at the public pool. Enjoy some snippets from the beginning of Steve's 1985 summer as he strikes out with girls, gets bullied by Robin, picks fights with Billy, and finds himself strangely drawn to the weird metalhead who works at the Sam Goody across from him at the mall.
Spoiler alert: Steve Harrington's bisexuality crisis began way before season 4.Takes place between seasons 2 & 3, mostly fluff, mostly canon-compliant.

Summary
“Steve?” Eddie interrupts again. Steve casts a glance in his direction, but Eddie is looking past him at the television with hazy eyes.
“Yeah, I’m here.” Steve jostles his foot gently and gestures for the doctor to continue talking about fluid levels. By fluid, he’s pretty sure she just means blood. The blood that Eddie was coughing up, he figures. It had to go somewhere, so they must’ve drained it the same way they drained all the leaking air from Max’s lung. Maybe. He hopes Eddie’s uncle gets this stuff better than he does.
“Don’t you live in Loch Nora?” Eddie asks just as the doctor is opening her mouth to speak again. Steve builds up to a sigh, unsure how exactly to tell Eddie to shut up when it’s not even his fault that he can’t, before he realizes Eddie’s gaze is still glued to the TV.

Summary
Steve’s never had a problem with Eddie selling drugs. It’s what he does to get by in a town with no prospects, and he’s been as understanding as he can be. Still, Eddie’s different when he goes off to deal. He’s hard and distant when he leaves and Steve’s getting tired of ignoring it.
Now they live together and things should be fine; domestic bliss, and all that. Eddie’s tattoo gig is going well and they’re getting by okay. But Eddie’s still dealing, still going “out on business,” as he calls it, and Steve doesn’t understand why. It’s a sore subject between them, amplified by Eddie’s secrecy and refusal to talk about it.
Eventually Steve’s had enough of wondering. He asks Eddie to take him out with him one of these nights to see where the money comes from. He’s been through the ringer already, so it’s nothing he can’t handle.

“Hey, Eds?”
“Hm?”
“Have you kissed anyone?” He felt Eddie tense up next to him. “I won’t make fun of you if you haven’t.”
“...I haven’t.”
“Me neither.” There was a bit of silence, then Steve was sitting up before his brain could register the movement. “What if…What if we kissed?”

Summary
It is not possible that someone like Steve Harrington is actually a good guy. It doesn't make sense. It won't add up. So they can't be friends. Even if they get on well, and make each other laugh, and Steve looks at him like he cares. It is not possible that Steve the Hair Harrington actually cares about him. So they can't be friends.

Summary
Eddie Munson doesn't mind working at the Family Video Store. It's a nice sense of normalcy (not to mention money) and he gets to see Robin more because of it. However, between working together and sharing the same best friend, he's also been seeing a lot more of Steve Harrington.
He wants nothing more than to enjoy mindless fun with his friends now that everything with Vecna is over, but Eddie's finding it hard to move on from what happened. Even if the strangest thing in his life right now was simply the fact he and Steve Harrington might actually be friends.

Summary
No matter how hard he'd tried to block out the memories of Vecna's wrath, the impact was evident the day Eddie failed to pass Mrs. O'Donnell's class-- had failed to graduate for the third year in a grow. Maybe it was the many first-hand accounts of Steve's ability to handle any level of chaos that had drawn Eddie to seek him out that day, but what it was going to end with was Eddie falling irrevocably in love.
