Summary
It seems like '86 really was his year.
After surviving the Upside Down, graduating by the skin of his teeth, and Corroded Coffin being scouted for a record label, it's time for Eddie to go
To spread his wings and fly straight out of Hawkins.A hard choice when there's so much to leave behind.
Good thing Steve has a gift for him before he goes, and all Eddie needs to do is make sure he uses it.

Summary
“Sooooo,” Eddie leads. Steve tilts his head to look up at him. Dark eyes flick to his quickly and then away. “What’s it like? Uh, the dating thing.”
Steve sits up a bit, intrigued. Eddie has stopped playing with his guitar for the moment, instead picking at the edge of his cut-off sweats. Steve wrestles his fuzzy mind back to working by taking a large gulp of water, letting fresh clarity burst into his brain.
For some reason he has a burning urge to really sell the ‘dating thing’ to Eddie.

Summary
And with Ally shoving her soft hand down his pants and into his boxers, it ought to be extremely easy to tune out the quiet sound of his roommate’s voice, saying something he can’t even hear.
But then, all of a sudden—he can hear it.
“That’s it, baby, look at you,” Eddie coos from beyond the wall. Then a condescending laugh. “Come on, honey, you can do better than that.”
Holy shit.
(or: during a hookup, steve overhears his roommate having gay sex and subsequently bursts into flame)

Summary
“Eddie?" Steve sounds sleep-rough even to his own ears. "What’s up, man? It’s like, midnight.”
“I know, I know, sorry, just—“ Eddie takes a breath. “David proposed to me.”
Steve feels the world tilt on its axis. “Oh.”
“Aren’t you gonna ask me what I said?”
Softly, Steve asks, “What did you say?”
“I said yes.”
(Or, Steve and Eddie navigate their twenties together and apart. Eventually, something has to give.)

Summary
Steve knows, like his skin knows his bones and his blood knows the cadence of his own heartbeat, that love is something you earn. Love is something you work for, something given to you at the end of a long journey.
Love is a reward.
And if you don’t try hard enough, if you don’t prove yourself worthy, then you don’t get it.

Or, the one where Steve learns that he deserves love.
