    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

    “And here I thought you were popular, Harrington,” Eddie puts on a fake, confident grin once he has put the bottle down. “I expected at least one of those hot dates you keep having to be here.” He manages to keep his leg from bouncing, but his thumb is already rubbing over the damp label on the beer bottle, peeling it off.

    “Well none of us are that comfortable with crowds these days,” Steve shrugs. “And honestly, I’d rather just hang out with the people that matter.”

    Five times Steve almost kissed Eddie and the one time Eddie beat him to it.

    Summary

    No one has caught Steve Harrington’s eye in a while, and he’s not going to go looking. And with his tendency to get involved with interdimensional bullshit and the gaggle of teenagers that follows him around, it’s probably for the best. He quickly learns that the universe has other plans for him, and they come in the shape of a goofy, guitar-wielding nerd.

    In which Steve is just trying to live his life but Eddie is essentially hitting him over the head with a very flirtatious hammer.

    Summary

    Eddie never thought that he would end up hanging out with Steve, let alone driving twelve hours across multiple state lines with him. He can't quite figure out why Steve offers to go, but he's pretty sure it's going to kill him.

    This is quite simply an excuse to write eight thousand words of flirty banter because we didn't get enough of it in the show.
