Summary
Eddie spins on his heel in the middle of the room, slowly taking in the space before he fixes Steve with an awkward, closed-mouth smile. Steve feels himself return it. Ringed fingers curl and straighten compulsively by Eddie's side as he tilts his head.
“And we’re sure there are no other rooms?”
Steve feels the smile slide off his face.
OR
In the aftermath of their final battle against Vecna, Hawkins is put under quarantine. Steve and Eddie bunk up.

Or: Eddie as Max’s stepbrother instead of Billy!
Canon divergent in terms of relationships, semi-canon-compliant in terms of Upside Down. We start by following Eddie's (and Max’s) home life and events that lead up to their move to Hawkins in October 1984, the year in which King Steve's reign starts dwindling. -

Summary
Steve knows the complicated jumble of feelings that Eddie is dealing with well–it’s the way he felt while Dustin told him not to worry about Max driving the car, pressing an ice pack to his battered face, the way he felt when he realized that, despite everything, they hadn’t been willing to leave him behind.
To be loved, to be shown love, is a concept that Steve still struggles with, even when he craves it desperately.

Summary
“Harrington,” he croaks - god why, why do I have to sound like that in front of him - he clears his throat, continuing, “you couldn’t have done me a favour and let me die in that shithole, spare me from Dustin?”
Steve finally turns to look at him, grinning madly. Fuck, Eddie thinks, fuck this is so unfair. You’re just standing there looking at me like that, smiling, all broad and pretty and scarred up, fuuuck.

Alternatively titled: the Steve Harrington bisexual crashout of 1986. Because vecna might be dead- but repressing your feelings (and trying therapeutic D&D with the direct cause of your identity crisis)- is quite enough to be getting on with.
