    Summary

    Steve is in a bit of a crisis. Everyone around him is moving forward with their lives, they have moved out, met new people, and he is still in Hawkins, going on date after date and looking for a connection that he just can't find. After one too many dreams about a dead boy he takes his truck and RV and hits the road, trying to run away from ghosts and expectations.
    He never planned for his truck to break down in the middle of nowhere, Pennsylvania.
    He never expected to go look for a mechanic and meet a ghost.

    Summary

    Eddie's gaze lingers on him. Soft, fond, and just for a moment Steve feels a bit like a bug in an enclosure himself. Specifically, one of Eddie's favourite little bugs.

    Something wet hits his shoulder.

    Outside the enclosure, a child points at him and laughs.

    "Wonderful," Steve mumbles, staring at the bird shit now decorating his sleeve.

    "Oh, you got a little something…" Eddie reaches out towards Steve's hair, then pulls his hand back. "Well. Everywhere, really."

    *****

    Steve works in the farmyard section of Hawkins Zoo, and spends his days mucking out barns and trying not to fall in love with his co-worker in the Insect House.

    He fails.

    A little orphan lamb, some nudging from his best friend, and a whole lot of chemistry brings him and Eddie together.

    Summary

    Steve throws a dejected look at the clock. 9:25pm. Saturdays are usually the busiest night of the week, and Steve actually enjoys working the closing shift. People tend to be in a better mood when they're choosing their weekend entertainment than at 9am on a Monday when they're returning something that their five year old kid should definitely not have watched and they're trying to blame Steve for it even though they specifically picked something from the Adult Horror section (looking at you, Mr Edmonton.)

    Not tonight, though. Tonight, Corroded Coffin is in Hawkins giving a concert and suddenly the whole town is made entirely of metal fans.

    --

    Or, Steve doesn't go to the show. He meets Eddie Munson anyway.
