Summary
“You literally want me to scratch your back.”
Steve groans. “Yes. Definitely, do that. Please.”
“Hmm, I love it when they beg.”
Steve freezes, speechless for a second. His face suddenly feels several degrees warmer.
“Oh my god, shit, sorry, that was—” Eddie begins mumbling awkwardly, moving away, and Steve won’t have it.
“Dude, you mind not flirting with me while I’m suffering here?”Series

Summary
Eddie Munson has no clue about the hanky code. Which becomes painfully clear when Steve Harrington—who’s been trying to flirt with him by showing up at Eddie's auto shop with increasingly suspicious car troubles—has to spell it out.
Turns out, Eddie might not know much about the hanky code—but he does know how to make Steve fall for him without even trying.
"You just said I was a bottom, out of the blue, on a Tuesday afternoon, and you're gonna tell me to forget it?"
"I just thought you were, like—signalling."
Eddie squints harder.
"Signalling?""Yeah?"
"Signalling what? That I need a better life because I dropped out of high school and work in a garage for pennies?"

This was freaking amazing and hilarious!!! I laughed so hard the entire time. The writing was very well done and the plot flowed incredibly well. The reunion was a nice touch. Personally I prefer a poor Steve but rich Steve couldn't have been done any better than this fic.
Steddie rich Steve x mechanic Eddie is adorable :)

Summary
One might think that needing to call 911 five times in two weeks is bad luck.
Eddie would beg to differ.
OR:
5 times Eddie needed help and 1 time Steve did.

Summary
His parents had told him they had given him too many good things in life, spent their money – their valuable time, just to have their only son end up working at a video store.
So, he's told it's time to make his own way in the world, if he's not going to follow theirs. He didn't realise where he had been driving when he finally pulled up to the small cabin in the forest.
Steve Harrington gets kicked out and finds himself crashing on Jim Hopper's couch, striking up a surprising friendship with Eddie Munson that changes his life and gains a family he never expected to have.

Summary
Steve is drunk.
He doesn’t know what time it is, anymore. He remembers Robin leaving, reminds promising her he’ll be okay, but that must’ve been hours ago, now. He watches as the condensation on his beer drips onto his thigh, making the light wash denim darken, and pretends he isn’t listening in on the conversation across the room.
It’s hard to make out with the party in full swing, with U2 still blaring from the speakers and a hoard of people between them, but Steve’s gotten good at reading body language. At reading expressions. At knowing who is a threat and who isn’t, and the three talking to Eddie Munson right now?
Are threats.

Summary
“What would you do, if you knew the world was ending?”
There’s an obvious, truthful answer to Steve's question at the tip of Eddie’s tongue, one he’s certainly not going to give. He needs to come up with something else, so naturally, he stalls.Bookmarked by ksmut

Summary
Steve Harrington and Nancy Wheeler are Hawkins High's "it couple". There's just one problem- Nancy isn't in love with Steve. When she goes away to New York for the summer, Steve is expecting to spend his own summer missing her. He isn't expecting Eddie Munson to show up. And he certainly isn't expecting their new friendship to turn into something more...
-OR-
The folklore love triangle, but make it Stranger Things
(Steddie happy ending guaranteed)

Summary
“What in the world are you doing here?” he then asks, when he got his voice back and Steve, now kneeling on the ground sorting through the dirty laundry he brought, just shoots him a look.
“Uhh…laundry?” He looks a little lost, as if he doesn’t really understand the question.
“Um, yes, I can see that,” Eddie replies, shutting his book, “but why is Steve Harrington doing laundry…here? At a laundromat?”
Steve frowns and turns completely around, giving Eddie his full attention now. “Well, Eddie Munson” he says, putting emphasis on it, as if to prove Eddie’s not the only one who knows full names around here. “There’s a very simple answer to that. I don’t have a washing machine…but I like to wear clean clothes. You know?”
or: It’s laundry day. Eddie runs into Steve Harrington. Something’s not adding up.

Summary
Steve got into his car and drove away, shaking hands and shaking heart, his eyes welling up with every foot of distance between him and the girl that had been supposed to make this day better. More bearable.
And instead he was fighting his tears back because he wouldn't cry, he wouldn't, okay? It was not even an hour into his fucking birthday and that would be a new fucking record.
or: 5 times Steve Harrington cried on his birthday and one time he cried happy tears

Summary
In which Eddie's trailer gets trashed so he definitely doesn't stay in Steve's guest bedroom after he gets out of the hospital and they definitely don't realize they like each other and they definitely don't fall in love.
"Boys Don't Cry," he responded, turning back to the pan in front of him so he didn't burn their breakfast, or worse, say something to Eddie about his hair looking good. What was with that?
"The Clash?"
"The Cure."
"Right," Eddie nodded and went over to the cabinets to get two plates from where he had watched Steve get them last night.
