    Summary

    Steve wakes up battered and bruised in the back of his car missing memories of the last two days. He now has to deal with the life altering consequences of that weekend. But with the help of his chosen family (and a certain longhaired metal-head) he might be able to get there.

    A hurt comfort fic that focuses on recovery from something horrific and unforgivable and finding that the family you need is sometimes already there for you. Even if you have to deal with annual apocalypses.

    It’s also a romance.

    ------------------------------------------------
    TW: The rape is absolutely NOT explicit and not romanticised in any way. Steve’s thought and emotions regarding it are discussed and his road to recovery and dealing with the consequences are discussed. Explicit rating is for Steddie scenes later. Tags may be updated as things progress. Authors Note in first chapter gives more details with spoilers.

    Summary

    Jim is starting to put it together. The waiting all day to eat. The bruise on his jaw. The lack of money for food. God, the kid probably walked six miles to get here.

    Jim isn't stupid, he can connect the dots. But Jim also knows when not to push things. When not to rock the boat. When sometimes, even if it pains him, helping someone can be a lost cause.

    ---
    or How family isn't always blood and love comes in more ways than one.

    (or Steve Harrington getting the care he deserves, even if it does take a little while.)

    Summary

    Hey, babe …

    It takes Robin only a minute to respond, and apparently she can read his mood even through text message.

    Hey, love! What’s wrong?

    The terrace seems weirdly quiet and empty without Eddie’s presence. Eddie, who is all loud and wild on the outside, but kind and considerate on the inside. Who will gladly reopen the scars of his own past to make a sad little boy feel better. Who calls Steve cute, and a softie, and thinks his son is the greatest kid in the world.

    Steve sighs and runs a hand through his hair. He digs his fingers into the bridge of his nose so hard his nails leave little indents in the sensitive skin there. Then, he lets out a heavy breath, types and hits send before he can overthink it for too long.

    I think I’m fucked.

    Or:
    The one in which Steve Harrington, overtired and over-stressed businessman and single dad, hires Eddie Munson as a nanny.
