    Summary

    “Hey,” is the first thing Steve says, when Eddie is coughing and choking and coming back to life in his arms, “so I know you just got resurrected and all, but you’re still a wanted fugitive – so we sort of have to move.”

    Summary

    “I’m not perfect, okay? I’ve never claimed to be, but I try,” His voice broke, left in shambles as he continued. “I try so hard. I have given everyone everything they’ve ever asked of me and I never complained; not really! I could’ve left this town years ago and never looked back, but I didn’t. I stayed because I care about those kids, about Nancy and Robin and you.”

    “Steve,” Eddie started, “I didn’t-”

    “You didn’t what? Notice? Care? Nobody does!” Steve said, throwing his hands up, “I mean, do you how long it’s been since someone said they loved me? Even my parents can’t be bothered to say that shit! I have been waiting years for someone to notice that I"ve changed! That after everything I’ve been through, I’m still here! I’m not some idiot who peaked in high school!”

    Caught in the insufferable silence, all he could do was cry.

    ***

    Or Eddie thinks Steve's confession is a joke, and Steve realizes that nobody really thinks he's changed.

    Summary

    “Alright, listen. You want to romance Max? It’s easier said than done.” When Lucas’s face falls, Steve is quick to tack on, “But it is doable. There are steps. Six of them.” He spreads his hands theatrically, bending a little at the waist as if setting the scene.

    or: Lucas needs love advice, Dustin & Robin despair, and Steve's a regular Casanova.

    Summary

    Steve and Robin get a two bedroom in Hawkins. It's perfect, except for all the ways it isn't. Drafty windows, clogged drains, shitty landlord. But it's got a couch. A couch that's often occupied by Eddie Munson. Home isn't really the kind of thing Eddie has much of anymore, ever since his trailer became the primary source for all his nightmares. Luckily, he knows of a semi-comfortable couch where he's always welcome.

    Despite all it's problem, the house has perks. Primarily, it's somewhere Steve can actually call home. Secondarily, it's somewhere he can share with the people he loves.

    AKA: The fruity four live in a convoluted roommate situation, and romance happens along the way.
