In this AU without Upside Down, we not only go through the sinister events in 1983 and the aftermath, but also Steve and Eddie's entire childhood, cherished and loved and ruined and marred by nothing but the bullshit of our own dimension.Bookmarked by switchcraft

Summary
Eddie won't stop touching anyone and everyone, except for Steve. He has a plan to change that.
*
“You can touch me.” That was not how Steve intended for it to come out. He opened his mouth and closed it a few times.
Eddie had frozen with his fingers halfway to his mouth. Smoke curled from his cigarette between them. He raised his eyebrows, then frowned, then bit his lip.
“I can-” Eddie said slowly, his face still rolling through several emotions without landing on one- “touch you?”

Summary
After everything that happened during Spring Break, life for everyone in Hawkins returned to somewhat normal. Well, aside from Steve's new friendship with one Eddie Munson.
The gang decide they all deserve a break and head to Steve's family beach house for a week, featuring copious amounts of fluff, found family bonding, blurring (or completely ignoring) the line between platonic and romantic, and bullying being considered flirting.

Summary
Eddie survived the Upside Down, but is still a murder suspect. He needs to heal and come to terms with his survival.
Who is the best person to help him with that? Steve Harrington, of course.
*
“So, you’re looking after me for something to do?” Eddie soured. He shouldn’t have asked. It was too much to ask for Steve to actually-
“I’m looking after you because I care about you.” Steve interrupted his train of thought, borderline yelling. Eddie stared at him with wide eyes, “Is that so hard to believe? That I actually like you, Eddie? That I want you to be okay, and I want to be the one to make sure that you are?”

Summary
Steve couldn’t look for too long. He wasn’t sure he’d be able to keep moving if he let himself.
“We can’t let him die here, Nance.” Steve pled, “He can’t- he doesn’t deserve to go like this.”
