    Summary

    “What I’m trying to say is that I want to be your first kiss, Eddie, if that’s okay with you,” Steve said, his voice earnest and face open with sincerity. Even in the dim light from the dashboard, his eyes still looked like summer sunshine. Eddie stared slack jawed at him for several heartbeats.

    “That was the point of your whole speech thing?” he asked, feeling a bit bewildered.

    or

    Steve learns about rock music and D&D. Eddie learns about the finer points of being seduced by a Harrington. Vignettes from August through December in 1986.

    Summary

    Eddie won't stop touching anyone and everyone, except for Steve. He has a plan to change that.

    *

    “You can touch me.” That was not how Steve intended for it to come out. He opened his mouth and closed it a few times.

    Eddie had frozen with his fingers halfway to his mouth. Smoke curled from his cigarette between them. He raised his eyebrows, then frowned, then bit his lip.

    “I can-” Eddie said slowly, his face still rolling through several emotions without landing on one- “touch you?”

    Summary

    Dustin was the first to notice that Steve wasn't who they all thought he was, that there was something more to him than they had thought. However he wasn't the only one to notice. Over the past year after defeating Vecna, each of the kids have all had at least one moment when they have noticed something about Steve Harrington that made them realise something they hadn't considered before. For once in Steve's life, he is finally being really seen, whether he wants to be or not.

    A non chronological collection of observations, moments and realisations by the kids. Connected to previous work in series, would recommend reading that first for context, but I don't think it's strictly required to read this.

    Summary

    Under a much different circumstance, Eddie would have loved to have Steve’s eyes looking over him like that, would love to have that determination focused on him, but Eddie is very much dying, he knows it, so he smiles at Steve’s misplaced confidence instead, “High expectations, Stevie. Where’d you learn to swing like that anyway?”

    “I’ll tell you,” Steve’s voice is a bit shaky, his tone wavering, even as he puts on a brave face, “but you have to stay alive, Munson.”

    If he had more strength, he’d consider testing his luck one last time, tease Steve by asking if he swings for Eddie’s team, but- he’s tired.

    Dying young. What a fucking nightmare.

    Or, what if the Party defeats Vecna in time, and Eddie lives?
