    Summary

    "Fine, whatever. Love you too, asshole. I hope you enjoy your walk home with your stupid, grainy bread. Taking Nature's Own a little too much to heart, but sure," Dean tells him, flashing him a sarcastic smile and swiveling around in the aisle to march away. He throws out something over his shoulder, careless and barbed. "I'm not paying for that shitty cardboard." 

    Dean's three aisles over when he realizes what, precisely, he said. Thankfully, when he comes to this conclusion, he's holding a box of poptarts, so when he fumbles and drops them to the floor, it's not a huge mess. He stares down at the slightly dented box of Brown Sugar Poptarts, and he has a very swift and very unshakeable crisis right there and then. 

    Love you too, asshole. 

    No, no, no. Why would he say that? Why would he do that? In the middle of the goddamn grocery store while arguing about bread? That's not—that can't be how it happens. That can't be.

    Summary

    “You’re stubborn and a hothead. You’re impossible to work with and you’re stuck in the past. Nancy said you’d be hard work but this is fucking ridiculous. I’m here to do a job. You won’t let me change or even suggest anything.”

    “Not true. I did change the turmeric for saffron.”

    “Yeah and you’re about this close to jumping off a bridge before admitting that it actually does taste better.”

    Steve could strangle him.

    Because yes. The saffron does taste better. The saffron tastes so much better and the dish now makes Steve’s tastebuds soar and his eyes water and the only thing worse than admitting Eddie is correct right now, is admitting that that dish is miles fucking better since Eddie puts his hands on it.

    And Steve finds himself wondering for a split fucking moment in between the rage he’s feeling, if everything is better with Eddie’s hands on it.

    or

    Son of famous, michelin-star chef, Steve Harrington is trying to gain a star of his own after a stint in rehab that left him with a lack of inspiration, until his restaurant manager Nancy has an idea of her own to add a spark back into the kitchen.

    Summary

    And sure, Steve had never paid much attention to Eddie in school, but he can’t recall ever seeing him interact with any girls on a romantic level. Chalk it up to Eddie’s reputation - his freakiness, his propensity for repeating senior year, his nerdy dragon club. Not really things that most girls are looking for. But now, here, there’s no reputation, no preconceived notions. He’s just Eddie. Eddie with the thousand-watt smile, Eddie with the long brown hair and the biggest, darkest eyes. Eddie who talks not only with his hands but with his whole body, who imbues so much energy into whatever space he occupies. It makes total sense, here and now, that he’s getting so much attention. He’s magnetic, and even Steve is having trouble looking away.

    or, Steve, Eddie, and Robin go to a bar.

    Summary

    "Red touches black, poison lack. Red touches yellow, kill a fellow." A silly rhyme, to help remember the difference between a harmless kingsnake and a deadly coral snake. Wayne taught it to him when he was fourteen, and Calpurnia settled in the form of a scarlet kingsnake.

    Given the way people recoil when they see his daemon, he's pretty sure no one else in Hawkins has ever heard it before. Or maybe it doesn't matter - maybe Eddie is the one they think is toxic.

    ****

    Vecna is defeated, Max is saved, and Eddie's name has been cleared. All should be right in the world of Hawkins, and Eddie's only concern should be his inconvenient crush on Steve Harrington. But there are people who still think Eddie is guilty of murder, and they're not willing to let it go.

    Summary

    It’s 1986, and Steve falls in love with a boy who is leaving.
    It’s 1990, and Eddie comes back home.

    Steve spends a month alone in the Upside Down and comes back changed. He’s quieter and all he wants is to tend to the land with his new powers… and to tend to Eddie, if he’ll let him.

    Summary

    The kiss is brief, only a second or two, not even long enough for Steve to really register what's happening before Eddie pulls away. Steve’s frozen in place, his arms still wrapped around Eddie.

    Steve blinks down at him. "What?" he says stupidly. What?

    Eddie closes his eyes, a weak smile on his lips. "Something to remember me by."

    "You're not dying," Steve says. It feels like his mouth isn't attached to his brain anymore; the inside of his head is a dial tone.

    "Of course I am," Eddie says, eyes still closed. "I'm dying right now."

    "You're not, though." His voice keeps getting higher, for some reason. "You're not going to die here."

    "Spare me the pity, Harrington, I know—"

    "You're literally not dying right now." His whole body is hot. Is he sweating? "You lost some blood but they didn't get deep enough—I looked—you're going to be fine."

    There's a pause. "I'm going to be fine?" Eddie asks, voice also going high and thin. "You're—sure?"

    "Yes."

    "Fascinating. Great. Are you—could you do me a favor, then, and maybe just—leave me here anyway?"

    "What?" Steve says. The dial tone gets louder. "No. Why?"

    "No reason," Eddie says, voice tight.

    Summary

    “Ground rules,” Steve says as he pushes the door open and turns to face him, walking backwards into his hallway. The dealer is prowling him, stalking towards him, biting his bottom lip.

    “One, do not fucking kiss me,” Steve says, clicking on a lamp. The guy nods, taking off his jacket, throwing it on the floor as he stares at his mouth while he talks. “Two, this is a one time thing.”

    The guy laughs, grabs onto Steve’s wrists, “that’s not going to be a problem.” “Because once you have me, you’ll want me again,” Steve oozes confidence, all babygirl and bratty. It’s so easy for him to be like this.

    He scoffs, “oh please. Who do you think you are? Really?”

    He tightens his grip on his wrists and pushes him against the wall. Fuck, okay, it’s going to happen right here.

    Or

    Steve sleeps around with low expectations and zero intentions for it ever meaning more. Until he meets a guy who makes him want to break all his own rules.

    Summary

    “You trying to get me naked, Steve?” Eddie asks, heart in throat because he has a creeping suspicion that Steve is actually about to get him naked. He suddenly wishes it hasn’t been months since he last trimmed his pubes, because it’s already been a week since his last proper washing at the hospital. No, it couldn’t just be one or the other.

    What a dumpster fire.

    Summary

    Eddie leans against the van to peer over his shoulder as he connects the leads. He’s close enough that Steve can smell him; close enough that he can feel the shift of air on the side of his neck as Eddie breathes. If it were one of the kids, he’d shove them off and reassert his personal space, but it’s never really bothered him when it’s Eddie. It’s distracting, but Eddie is always kind of distracting. Steve doesn’t mind.

    -

    Or: Steve fixes Eddie's van and figures out several things about himself in quick succession.

    Summary

    Steve shouldn’t care about what his roommate slash totally platonic best guy friend is doing every Saturday night.

    He shouldn’t care about the fact that he’s gotten used to Eddie spending a full hour getting ready, primping and priming, blasting heavy metal and simultaneously talking Steve’s ear off as he meticulously applies eyeliner and fluffs out his hair just right before he heads out with a wave on yet another of his seemingly endless dates. They used to spend Friday and Saturday nights mostly together–hanging out, watching movies, smoking joints–and it’s not even that that bugs him the most, losing a friend like that.

    It’s that it was his idea in the first place.

    OR

    Five times Eddie goes on dates with other people, and the one time where he finally goes with Steve.

    Summary

    They find him in the boathouse. There’s glass at his throat and a fear thick enough to choke, but Steve doesn’t take it personally. These things happen.

    Eddie’s shaking apart and Steve doesn’t know him but he knows the look in his eye.

    They leave him with promises and a hope that he’s not crazy. Still, they leave him.

    There’s a story Steve remembers about looking back, a punishment in salt. He’s got his key in the ignition and there’s something brackish in his mouth when he turns to see the shadow in the window.

    “We can’t…he’s alone,” he says and no one answers because they know he’s right but they don’t know what comes next.

    It’s Dustin who finally breaks the silence, a quiet, “where can he go where no one would look?”

     

    Eddie hides at Steve's house. There are consequences.

    Summary

    “This is us, huh?” Steve asks her, reaching out to lay a hand between her ears. His face aches, and she has a bit of blood matted in the fur around her left eye; matching wounds. There’s black ichor and gore coated up her muzzle and down her ruff, and when she opens her mouth her teeth are large and wicked looking.

    “Do you even have to ask?” she mutters, leaning her full weight against him.

    Summary

    The people of Hawkins were still alive, folding donated t-shirts into neat piles in the middle school gym, and passing out boxes of canned food to families in need, and smiling to each other as they said, hanging in there? Good, me too!

    But then the ground fell and the fires started.

    And then the Hawkins citizenry abandoned ship like they were time travelers aboard the goddamn Titanic.

    And then the Hellfire Club and associated extended party members commandeered Loch Nora and turned it into a safe zone for the miniscule remaining population of Hawkins.

    And then the dead people started showing back up.

    Or: Eddie’s in love with Steve, but it doesn’t really matter because the world ended a few months ago and he’s been living on borrowed time ever since. Steve’s in love with Eddie, but he’s been through this before with a wild-eyed, steady-handed survivor who was better off without him, and doing it again might be enough to kill him this time.

    Or or: The Party are vampire hunters in post-apocalyptic Hawkins, in a world where soulmates can't harm each other.
