Summary
“Steve Harrington, did you just call me young and beautiful?”
“Shut up,” Steve chuckled under his breath, managing to break eye contact for long enough to collect himself, if only slightly. When he found Eddie’s eyes again, he saw that they were still holding him in that unflinching gaze of his, the fluorescents above their heads casting sparks on the deep brown of his irises. Steve blinked, as if waking up suddenly from a strange, intense dream.
“Hi,” he said simply, his head tilted to one side in unadulterated wonder. Eddie’s smile turned soft, his shoulders relaxing a fraction, as if releasing a long-held weight. When he spoke again, his voice was gentle and familiar, summer rain on overheated skin, dewdrops on the grassy hill outside of town.
“Hi.”

Twelve years after tire tracks and shattered trust, Wayne's illness brings Eddie back to Hawkins.

Summary
"Tell me a secret," Steve says and Eddie shakes his head.
"Why would I do that?"
"I'll tell you one."
Eddie looks intrigued, smirks in his direction. "A secret for a secret? Okay." He looks up. "You go first."
(Steve always noticed Eddie. He's been there on the peripheral, easy enough to ignore. Until he's standing right in front of him, unavoidable. And then they collide over, and over, and over.)

Summary
Thank you.’ Eddie lays his hand on the back of Steve’s exposed neck, right below his hairline. His skin is cool, it’s soothing.
Something kind of unlocks in Steve’s middle.
Like a bad bone cracking in half.
Like a rotted dam giving way to the weight of the water.

Summary
"So when Stevie noticed Eddie wasn’t dicking around with Dustin out in the field anymore, she’d run herd on her precious little shitheads before deciding to go look for him; because she remembered what it was like, she knew what it was like, the first few days after, during, and he probably, maybe needed someone to talk to so she thought probably, maybe that someone could be her. And that was what she set out to do, Jesus Christ, Robin, she didn’t always think with her snatch, okay?"
In which Stevie Harrington has a habit of making out with people at the end of the world.Series

“Rules. Like, there’ll be no eating in my car. You’re not driving my car. No heavy metal,” Steve keeps listing, “you’re not picking up women and fucking them in m-”
“I'll try to control myself,” Eddie interrupts with a quip, a smirk. Fucking girls in Steve’s car, or anywhere else for that matter, isn’t going to be an issue, unless something pretty fundamental shifts in him.
Steve continues, completely ignoring Eddie, “You’ll wipe your feet. You’re not dragging dirt all over my car. No hitchhikers. No cutesy road games. No smoking in the car. I’m not paying for all the gas.”
“Ass, gas or grass, got it,” Eddie says, like he's taking this very seriously. He is not taking this seriously.
Or: Road trip!

Summary
“Hey newbie. Ever worked in a bar before?” the guy asks with an easy smile. Steve snaps his eyes up to meet his, and shit they’re pretty. The greeting would be charming from anyone else, perhaps even from the guy himself if he’d not overheard the exchange moments before, but Steve’s insides curl at the condescension.
“Yeah. For about five years. Thanks. And my name’s Steve,” he responds, voice clipped. He yanks at the ties of his apron, knotting the bow just a little tighter than is comfortable. He’ll have to adjust it later, but the man’s dark eyes are roaming over him like he’s something edible, and there’s no way Steve’s going to give any indication whatsoever that he’s prey.
“Nice to meet you, Steve. I’m Eddie.”
Steve can’t prevent the way his face scrunches in confusion, because surely not. There’s no way that this is the Eddie. Sure, he’s not exactly hard on the eyes, but from the little Steve’s experienced of him so far, he seems like a major ass. The way Bridget had hyped him up, anyone would think fucking Jon Bon Jovi worked here.
OR
when the upmarket cocktail bar Steve's working at goes out of business, he finds himself in desperate need of a job.

Summary
Eddie doesn't particularly like the smell of blood.
However, he's growing awfully used to it.
It’s what he’s choosing to focus on. The smell of it. How it burns his nose. Clings heavy in his throat and fills his lungs with its thick, metallic haze.
That is, when he can breathe.
It’s awful hard to breathe.
But he’s trying. God fucking damn it, he’s trying. And it hurts worse than anything, worse than the bites or the torn flesh or the aching all over. It burns worse than the smell. He can’t tell if it’d be easier to breathe through his nose or his mouth, so he just sort of heaves with his mouth open and hopes that air gets in somehow.
He might be dying.
Steve says he’s not dying, very insistent on that, in fact, but Eddie’s not sure if he believes him.

Summary
"It was overcast at Silverstone, that afternoon. It was cooler than last year, the wind from Friday had died down significantly, and the likelihood of seeing rain was slim to none. Conditions were favorable, and Steve had had good runs in practice and snagged P2 to start. Max had officially made her test debut for the team Saturday too, and Erica, despite her age, had gotten to be her race engineer; Max was going to get elevated out of testing and dev within the next two years and make motorsport history, and Erica was going to be the youngest race engineer in F1 history shortly there after, mark his words."
In which Steve started racing go-karts at ten, and never looked back.

"One time, right after everything, he’d wandered in on Eddie, Nancy, and Robin arguing about a dude named Lestat and Steve had listened and stared for about five minutes before slowly backing out of the room and then spending the next two hours talking himself down from driving his car into the quarry to mercy kill himself. He had a fucking type, alright, and apparently it was nerds with big eyes, bigger hair, and extremely firm opinions on shit." Or, after they survive, Steve and Eddie hook up, and then keep hooking up.

Summary
This is a really bad fucking situation.
Eddie would know.
Jaw working, he leans in, says, ‘You’re not my type.’
And when he draws away, Steve is laughing, like it’s genuinely funny. He’s got this light sheen of sweat over his skin, it’s glittering. His hair moves, he pushes it back with his hands as his hips sway in time with the rhythm like he’s commanding it and he moves like a siren; a creature who exists only to lure.
‘I’m everyone’s type,’ he tells Eddie, like he just knows it and pities Eddie for lying. ‘To fuck, at least.’

Summary
Hawkins Indiana, January 1985
The moment the basketball players walked into the gym, all hell broke loose.
Curses were spat. Teenagers whispered in scandalized tones as their nikes squeaked over the polished wood floor. Prayers were chanted. Somewhere across town, a baby probably cried.
Eddie Munson grinned.
or
Eddie borrows Chrissy Cunningham’s spare cheerleading uniform as a prank. The ensuing chaos tips his entire world on its head, for the better.

Summary
“I didn’t know you had this,” Eddie says, voice softer. “I figured it was a dumb Polaroid or something. This is… this is like a ‘this is my family’ photo, you know? Like one a fancy banker would keep on his desk of his wife. Adults being in love and shit.”
Eddie pauses, brown wrinkling.
“Did that even make sense?”
Steve huffs a little laugh, taking the photo from Eddie’s hand and putting it down. The photo itself isn’t fancy at all - it’s not professional or staged. But he gets it - it’s framed, and it’s just Eddie in the shot. It’s clear that it’s him that’s important in the photo, that he’s what Steve wants to look at during long days. He tilts Eddie’s chin up, pressing a soft kiss to his lips.
“You are my family,” he murmurs, pulling back just a little. “Totally adults in love and shit."

Or, the one where life merrily goes on and sometimes, it just works out. No strings attached.

Summary
“Back in tenth grade, he’d done his final report for World History on prophecies. The Greeks were kind of the last people who’d really made a big deal about it, even though there’d been recorded True Prophecies well into the 19th and 20th centuries. It was more that people had gotten weird about it — didn’t want to believe in predestination and a concrete future, even though it was something like a one in a billion chance you’d get a True Prophecy about yourself or even someone you knew; people just liked to feel special, Eddie thought, and hated when they weren’t — and so it had slid to the fringes of society and anyone who might have Sight got swept into the insular embrace of the Priestesses of the Quiet Sisters.” Or: Steve dies at the end. Or: a story about prophecies, love, and loopholes.
