    Summary

    He’s quiet when no one’s around. When he’s alone in class, he just works silently, doing something in his notebook that doesn’t really look like writing. And Eddie’s curiosity turns from just wanting to know who Steve Harrington is, to who Steve Harrington is and what he draws in his notebook when he’s not taking notes.

    Then he notices how pretty his eyes are, and Eddie wants to slam his head in his locker until he collapses on the floor, because this was never supposed to happen. He has fucking butterflies. Christ.

    Summary

    "And you do know that people are curious, right?" Oprah pushes her glasses up, "Everyone is curious as to who and how you can write such heartbreaking songs without anyone ever seeing your date?"

    The camera flicks to Steve, and he blinks back at her, "Yes. I am aware."

    "Where is this muse?" The camera flickers between Oprah and Steve as they laugh at the question.

    "My muse is chilling in the skies, watching me play. He's probably berating me for stealing his sweetheart."

    Or: After Eddie's death, Steve returns to the Upside Down to retrieve his guitar. He learns how to play it and ends up becoming a famous singer, famous for his heartbreaking songs about longing and yearning for someone. For a while, that's it. It's not until sixteen years later, that some secrets are uncovered.

    or: Lucas needs love advice, Dustin & Robin despair, and Steve's a regular Casanova.

    Summary

    A year before Will Byers disappears, when Steve is 16 years old, he dreams of the Upside Down. The dream, a warning, means that high school plays out differently. Steve learns ahead of time who he actually wants to be, what to care about, and that he can be brave about a lot of things he wouldn’t expect--including Eddie Munson.
    --
    This is my excuse to rewrite Steve Harrington at Hawkins High, who deserves to feel true friendship and to play Dungeons and Dragons. And, of course, a nice love story with Hawkins’ hottest.

    Summary

    His eyes are shining in a way Eddie’s never seen before, with malice and rage and twenty years of anger boiling and bubbling out of him. His cheek is already blooming red, and Eddie can see the subtle mark of Walter’s wedding band. Eddie jerks his jacket again, holding him in place.

    “I’m not fourteen anymore, Dad,” Steve says evenly.

    Summary

    “You dare suggest one such as I might need your companionship?” Ice, sharper than any knife, laced every syllable. A warning if Hob were a smarter man. He was not a smarter man.

    "Yes, yes I do."

    He could feel the fall approaching yet do nothing to slow his momentum, too hell bent on proving his theory. One that had been gnawing away at his mind for the last century. Memories of his stranger’s barely there smile, words of concern for his safety that cracked his chest open like a walnut and left him hopelessly addicted with only the one taste to sustain him through a century of pining.

    Summary

    “Damn you, Harrington.” Eddie shakes his head, looking back at the box again.

    He can see Robin giving him a curios look, but Eddie avoids looking at her. He didn’t want to answer questions about his damn crush on Steve freaking Harrington and how he keeps getting more perfect by the minute. Eddie needs him to stop, like literally right now.

    “Oh my god,” Dustin screams, making Eddie look at him from across the room. Eddie finds him staring at someone, so he follows his line of sight and finds one Steve Harrington, yeah, that one, the one he just asked a second ago to stop being perfect? Yeah, that guy is standing at the bottom of the stairs with a crumpled box in his hands and is wearing glasses.

    Steve Harrington just exceeded perfect.

    -

    Or: 5 times Eddie falls in love with Steve wearing glasses and the 1 time Steve finds out.

    Summary

    It’s probably going to go down in history as the worst kiss Steve Harrington ever got, but Eddie doesn’t give a fuck. He isn’t going to get another chance so he’s working with what he’s got. It’s less of a kiss, and more of a slide of lips, wet with blood and tears but he feels Harrington’s grip tighten on the back of his shirt and he pulls back. He reaches up with the hand he can still feel and pushes back a strand of hair that had fallen in Steve’s face, smearing blood along his temple as he does.

    “Sorry. Couldn’t die without knowing what that felt like.”
