    Summary

    This wasn’t supposed to happen. That’s what you would both tell yourselves, later on. It had started with a bet. You were a cocktail waitress, studying abroad in Rome and working yourself to death to keep yourself afloat. Steve Harrington was a business executive for one of the biggest tech companies in the world, ten years your senior, and earnest enough that it intrigued you. But, there was only one problem - he doesn’t do relationships. Not now, perhaps not ever. So, a deal is struck - something mutually beneficial. No attachments, and you get to be his perpetual mistress, while he makes sure you want for nothing. But, what happens when the agreement becomes more than what either of you bargained for?

    Or, the sugar daddy modern AU, a whirlwind summer romance in Italy, and two people from completely different walks of life, somehow finding each other in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. But, what will happen when summer ends?

    Summary

    Robin finally convinces Steve to join her at a Paint and Sip event at her art studio, led by one of the other artists named Eddie. The pair are drenched in sexual tension as Eddie tries to teach the class how to paint, and Steve attempts to follow along. Then Steve finds out Robin has been trying to set them up for months, while she finds out the two men have developed crushes on each other before meeting.

     

    “Told ya.” Robin pulls Steve back from his thoughts, and he sees her standing there with her arms crossed, smirking.
    “What?”
    “He’s your type.” She gives him a grin that could be mistaken as pride.

    Summary

    He used to be cool. He used to be suave. Girls used to throw themselves at his feet. He was King Steve. He sighed softly as the girls turned away from the counter to leave the store giggling to themselves. Obviously laughing at him.

    He wasn't king Steve anymore.

    He hadn't been for a while.

    Scoops Ahoy Steve officially meets Eddie Munson and things are... confusing.

    Summary

    Steve Harrington, co-owner of Petal & Thorn Tattoo, prided himself on being able to get along with anyone. Growing up with his parents and attending more social functions than he ever cared to think about, it was practically a requirement. So, when local band Corroded Coffin began renting the suite across from his tattoo shop and he was forced to meet their loud, obnoxious, over-the-top frontman Eddie Munson, it came as an absolute shock that he could not stand to be in the same room as him.

    What was even worse was that Robin and Nancy, somehow, seemed to love the guy. When they asked him to at least try to get along with the man, for their sake, he took that as a challenge.

    What could possibly go wrong?

    Summary

    She’s not sure of a lot of things. But here are three things Joyce Hopper knows right now: 

    1. She makes the best hot chocolates in Hawkins, maybe the whole of Indiana. 
    2. She loved Shakespeare in high school. 
    3. She is not a great matchmaker. 

    Or: The one where Joyce matchmakes Steve and Eddie: Shakespeare Style.
