    Summary

    Good things don’t happen to Eddie Munson, and he’s very aware of the fact.

    That’s kinda the whole foundation of who he is as a person at this point: don’t expect good things to happen. He rolls with it. He makes glitter out of the shit. He lives in his own fantasy because reality has pretty much always sucked since, likely, before he can remember.

    Good things don’t happen to Eddie Munson, so he has no idea how to wrap his head around Steve Harrington’s sudden appearance in his life as an unmovable fixture.

    No fucking clue.

    Summary

    In which Eddie wants nothing more than to give Steve the gentle kindness he deserves.

    ——

    Apparently, when given the ability to feel comfortable about it, Steve was clingy as fuck. He was all wandering hands and his cheek on Eddie’s shoulder and hips pressed into hips and lingering looks and those horrible jock hugs with the slap on the back at the end and, and - Eddie felt like dying.

    “I feel like I’m dying, Robin,” Eddie whines; rubbing his hands down his face.

    “You’re so dramatic,” Robin says with an eye roll so powerful he’s surprised she doesn’t fall over by sheer force.

    Summary

    “'I’m in love with you,' Eddie says, so casual, like it isn’t 3PM on a Tuesday in the middle of a Family Video in Bumfuck, Indiana. Like they’re somewhere else, like he’s someone else. Like it’s nothing extraordinary."

    Or:

    Five times Eddie tells Steve he loves him, and one time Steve lets himself say it back.

    Summary

    Even though Eddie's name has been cleared legally, he's still very much on trial in the court of public opinion. Dealing drugs isn't a lucrative occupation anymore, and getting a legitimate job in a town who still considers him a killer isn't much of an option, either. Eddie is beginning to think skipping town and starting over somewhere no one knows his name is the only chance he has left. Steve has another idea.

    AKA: Steve gets Eddie a job as an anonymous columnist at a local newspaper.

    Summary

    He turns, scooping up his sneakers as he goes, and climbs back over the rocks. Fifteen feet between them now, and their eyes meet. Steve’s got a paper bag of groceries under one arm, balanced on his hip like a sassy single mom, and he doesn’t drop them but he pales, looks like he wants to. Eddie sees his shoulders stiffen and he asks, hoarse, “Who died?” “You did,” Eddie tells him.

    Ten years on, in a town in Nova Scotia, on the edge of the Atlantic, Eddie finds Steve again, and also maybe himself.
