Summary
“I’m guessing this must be the other Mr Diaz?”
And Eddie’s confused for a moment, because what on Earth could the realtor be talking about?
The other Mr Diaz?
Eddie’s pretty sure he’s the only—
“Actually, I’m Buck,” Buck says, introducing himself with a friendly wave. “Eddie’s best friend. I’m just here to help Eddie find the right new home. Can’t trust him to pick one by himself, you know how it is.”
Buck and the realtor laugh at the joke, but Eddie’s stunned into silence.

(Eddie has some realisations when a realtor assumes Buck's his husband.)

Summary
“I can’t just—oh, holy shit,” Buck says through a laugh.
“What?” Eddie asks, contorting himself to try and follow Buck’s line of sight. “What is it?”
Buck physically manhandles him so that he’s looking in the right direction and discreetly points towards the aisle.
“Are those little helicopters hanging off the pews,” Buck asks in horror.
Eddie is equally horrified, for the record.
“We’d never have something that trashy at our wedding,” he says without thinking.
Buck freezes next to him. “At our wedding?”

Summary
“Eddie!” Nash yells repeatedly. “Eddie! Eddie!”
Eddie feels himself turning bright red.
“Wow,” he says after his name is repeated a good half a dozen more times in a row. “You weren’t kidding, huh?”
“He’s been like this all day,” Maddie says with a grin on her face. She shifts Nash in her arms, pointing over at Eddie as she says, “Look who it is, sweetie. It’s Eddie!”
Nash frowns, looking confused. “Eddie?”
Maddie nods. “Yeah, that’s Eddie!”
“Eddie!” Nash yells, reaching for Buck. “Eddie!”
*
(When baby Nash's first word is “Eddie”, questions are raised as to how this could possibly have happened.)

Summary
“I'm not in love with you.” There’s a jolt in Eddie’s stomach at that. “I’m not secretly pining for you, or anything like that. I don’t even see you that way.”
“Oh,” Eddie says, then forces out a laugh he hopes sounds casual. Buck’s eyes are wide, honest, like he’s desperate for Eddie to be reassured by this admission, to believe him. And how much clearer could he be? He’s not in love with Eddie. That’s fine. Eddie never expected him to be. His now empty beer bottle hits the counter too loudly, “No, of course not.”
Or: Buck reassures Eddie that he's not in love with him. Eddie feels some type of way about that.

Summary

Summary
“C'mere," Buck says, sitting up to scoot closer to Eddie.
"What are you doing?” Eddie asks, and Buck sighs.
"You can just kiss me, get a taste of the lip balm, and tell me what flavour you think it is.”
Eddie can’t believe his ears.
"That is such a stupid way to win a bet, Buck."
“Oh so you concede?"
Eddie rolls his eyes, shaking his head before planting both hands on the sides of Buck's face and hauling him in to press their lips together.
OR
Buck and Eddie make a bet on whether or not Eddie can guess all of Buck's lip balm flavours, and in order for Eddie to get a taste, they have to kiss.

Summary
“Hey, Munson!” Eddie’s a couple feet away; it seems like he’s kicked the habit of hardly ever showing up to homeroom. He just looks at Steve, like he’s faintly baffled, so Steve feels the need to tack on, “It’s Steve. Steve Harrington?”
That does the trick: Eddie shakes his head as if Steve’s just said something completely pointless.

Summary
Steve pauses and looks ahead past his own car to see none other than Eddie Munson for the second time today. The lights in his beat-up dark blue Chevrolet are on, giving Steve a perfect look inside. Eddie seems to be getting ready to pull out of the parking lot, a cigarette in his mouth with smoke winding around the air and leaning back with his eyes closed against the seat. Suddenly, as if he knows he’s being watched, he looks up and catches Steve stopped in the middle of the lot, staring.
Eddie doesn’t flinch, just raises an eyebrow, his expression unreadable under the faint glow of the dashboard lights. The smoke curls upward, haloing his face in a way that makes him look more like a phantom than a guy who just bought records across the mall. For a split second, neither of them moves. Then Steve, still clutching his keys, shifts awkwardly and offers a small nod, casual, like he hadn’t just been caught standing there staring like a total weirdo.
Eddie tips his chin in return, something like a half-smile ghosting across his face. With a two-fingered salute, Eddie just turns up the music in the van and starts backing up his car.

Summary
Eddie's eyebrows shoot up as high as they can go. His heart is beating a rabbit rhythm against his chest. The floor below him crumbling into an abyss. He’s in free fall here, utterly helpless to the onslaught that is Steve’s confession.
Drunk confession.
The reminder does nothing to soften the blow when he feels calloused fingertips on the corner of his eye. “And your laugh lines, I don’t know anybody who has them. Not as deep as yours.” Steve’s fingers drag lower, to his cheeks, and brush against the scars on his jaw. “Has anybody ever told you that you laugh with your entire face?”
OR a reverse 5+1: The one time Steve drunkenly confesses all the things he likes about Eddie and the five times Eddie tries to fluster him with said attributes.

Summary
Eddie Munson has never had a boyfriend before. Sure, he'd slept with guys he didn't even remember the names of the next morning, kissed dudes in dark corners of clubs he was too young to be in, but it didn't mean anything. None of it meant anything. This did. Eddie would almost argue it meant everything.
How on earth his first boyfriend had ended up being Steve Harrington, former king of Hawkins high, and former douchebag, but current sweetheart, he didn't know.
But Eddie's not complaining. Quite the opposite, actually. He's not entirely sure how he's supposed to go around this whole relationship thing, but he's sure Steve'll show him. For now, though, Eddie's just gonna freak out about holding his hand.OR
Steve and Eddie navigate Steve's first homosexual experiences, and Eddie's first romantic experiences, and shit happens.

Summary
Eddie supposes that you tend to form some sort of attachment to the person who saves your life. When you owe your life to someone, It’s hard not to develop some kind of connection to them. Even if it’s one sided.
So after Steve ‘the hair’ Harrington dragged his unconscious body, his dying body, away from them demobats, well, the dead bodies of demobats, and back to his trailer, well, the version of his trailer in the upside down, and proceeded to throw him over his shoulders and climb back up, and then down, that makeshift rope, and back to the over-world, to safety, while the others shouted urgently, there was no surprise that Eddie felt something about that.OR
Steve Harrington saved Eddies life, and in turn, Eddie develops a big fat crush on the guy.

Summary
“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.
