Summary
In the City of Hawkins lies a small cafe on the corner of 4th street that Steve Harrington owns with his best friend.
Far from the broken life he once knew, Steve has become compliant in a comfortable but lonely life. He's happy to work every day in the city he's grown to love, with nothing more than a pillow to greet him at home.
Steve should have known, though, that trouble follows him wherever he goes. And with a new face in town, Steve will have to reevaluate everything he knows, including his view on love.

Steve always forgot how Eddie knew him. “Feels unfulfilled sometimes. Like I have parts missing. I’m happy, sure, but not satisfied.”
They stared at each other for a long while; the silence became a more present voice than theirs.
Eddie broke it first, saying, “I hope you will be one day.”
Steve was already feeling a bit closer to it with Eddie in the room.
