Summary
Steve Harrington has always known how to be someone. The right table at lunch, the right laugh at the right moment, the right people around him — until a rumor about him being gay spreads across campus and he finds out exactly who his friends were.
Jonathan Byers is the only one who opens his mouth.
Steve shoves him for it.
It would be easier to keep hating him if he didn't keep ending up in his room — guitar in hand, head on his chest, mouth on his mouth.
He doesn't have a name for it yet. He's working on it.Enemies to lovers/Slow Burn/Steve x Jonathan/Stranger Things AU

Summary
Stranger Things AU – Post-Canon (S5)
What happens when the boy you once called your enemy becomes the only future you can picture?
Hawkins is quiet again. The gates are sealed, the world stitched back together. The kids have scattered. Robin left without looking back. Nancy chose her path, like she always does.
Jonathan Byers stayed longer than he meant to, caught between dreams too big and a town too small. Steve Harrington never left at all—now coaching baseball at Hawkins High, pretending that staying was always the plan.
They run into each other one night in the empty gym. Jonathan’s there for a photoshoot. Steve’s just turning off the lights.
They’ve shared Nancy. Demogorgons. More scars than either of them will admit. They’ve always looked at each other sideways—unfinished sentences, swallowed apologies, years of silence.
But one conversation becomes another. Old grudges unravel. The past softens.
And when Jonathan, half-serious and half-terrified, says, “Come to New York with me. Rent’s cheaper if we split it,”
Steve has to decide whether he still knows how to walk away.
