Summary
“Just - just don’t make a big deal out of it.” Steve bit out. “Please.”
“Scout’s honor.” Eddie held his fingers up in a mocking salute, an impish, shit-eating grin taking over his face. The sight of it sent Steve’s heart fluttering, but he ignored it in favor of closing his eyes.
“You weren’t even a scout.” He huffed. “Just get on with it.”

Post-battle with Vecna, Steve needs some patching up. He's got some scars he's a little ashamed of.

“There was a fire. At the mall. I worked there? At Scoops Ahoy.”
The way he says the last part sounds strange, like it’s really important somehow that Eddie believes him.
“Okay,” he says, then adds, “Is that why you look like that?”
Eddie’s never met a fire with fists, but he wants Steve to tell him what happened—not just assume.
There’s a beat of silence, like Steve’s weighing his options, and Eddie knows a lie’s coming before Steve even opens his mouth.
“Yeah. Building caved in. We made it out—Robin and I. Paramedics checked me over and said I couldn’t drive, so I decided to walk.”
Almost ten miles, Eddie estimates. Sure. Totally normal thing to do in the middle of the night, battered and bruised, after escaping a fire.
But he’s pretty sure that’s all he’s going to get, so he settles on, “Good thing I came along, then.”
“Yeah.”

Eddie doesn’t expect to find Steve Harrington half-dead on a dark road in the middle of the night — or to be the one he clings to after.

Summary
John “Soap” MacTavish never meant to come out as bisexual on national television – it just slipped out during a post-match interview. Overnight, his rugby stats take a backseat to accusations of queerbaiting, invasive questions, and endless speculation.
Enter Kyle “Gaz” Garrick, an old mate from school, now in the military and schemer extraordinaire. His solution? A fake boyfriend. Someone private, unreachable by the press.
Someone like his lieutenant – Simon “Ghost” Riley. Luckily, Ghost owes Gaz a favour. A big one.
It’s just meant to be a few quiet photos, some social media buzz, a bit of smoke to keep the wolves at bay. But as the season wears on and the fake relationship starts bleeding into quiet nights, real texts, and barely-there touches… Soap starts to wish it were real. And Ghost – Ghost stops knowing where the act ends and something real begins.
What starts as a cover story slowly becomes something neither of them know how to fake anymore.

Just one bite; to taste, and let go.
Or, the on-field flirting is getting a little ridiculous.

“Ghost?”
“Soap.” Ghost’s voice was a low buzz, gravelly with static. In the absolute silence of the snow-covered forest, it sounded both deafeningly loud and intimately quiet.
“What’s your favourite season?” Soap asked.
