    Summary

    Eddie Munson’s seen enough of Steve Harrington to last a lifetime. He’s rich, popular, mean for sport, and somehow manages to turn every house party into his own personal ego parade. Between that and the fact that Steve and his jock buddies have made Eddie’s life miserable since freshman year, Eddie’s got plenty of reasons to hate him. Then one night, Eddie finds Steve somewhere he never thought he’d be, and suddenly “King Steve” doesn’t look quite so untouchable.

    Summary

    “Still not graduated, Harrington?”
     
    It’s something Eddie would have said teasingly when they were teens. Steve would have smacked him on the shoulder, affectionately calling him an asshole before being pulled into an apologetic kiss. But they are not teenagers anymore and Eddie’s voice lacks any of the warmth that used to be reserved for Steve. Now, it’s just loaded with resentment, which, yeah, is a fair reaction.
     
    “I…eh…work here now,” Steve says lamely and points at his office door. “Guidance counselor.”
     
    or: 14 years after his first big heartbreak, Steve's life is relatively stable. It's been two years since the tragic incident that led to him becoming Dustin's guardian, both of them slowly healing. He is doing amazing at his job and his social life is great. Of course, that's when a person from Steve's past has to come and shake everything up.

    Summary

    November 1983. Between unpaid bills, the supposedly straight jock he’s seeing, and letters from his convict dad, seventeen year old Eddie Munson’s got enough to worry about. But when Will Byers goes missing, it sparks a chain of events that will show there are more depths to Hawkins — and to certain people in it, like infamous Steve ‘The Hair’ Harrington — than he realizes.

    / or, the excessively long slow-burn in which Eddie is involved in the Upside Down from the very beginning.
