    Summary

    People knew who Steve was for sure, but that’s the thing really. SAILOR was bubblegum pop rock, layers of harmonies and bright chords and Corroded…wasn’t that.

    Corroded Coffin was loud and quick, dark and moody. Eddie liked things fast, sweaty and mind-blowing.

    Steve Harrington just didn’t fit, and he made Eddie frustrated because he made Eddie flustered.

    Eddie fucking Munson didn’t get flustered, he just didn’t.

    --

    Five Times Eddie and Steve fuck around on stage, and the one time they decide to fuck...off of it.

    Summary

    Steve and Eddie got married on a Wednesday in November.

    “I got you a wedding present Stevie.” Steve smiled and kissed him excitedly. Eddie handed him the envelope and Steve held it out in front of himself. It was addressed to Eddie and there was a return address scrawled in the top left corner. Steve froze when he saw the name.

    Summary

    “Hey newbie. Ever worked in a bar before?” the guy asks with an easy smile. Steve snaps his eyes up to meet his, and shit they’re pretty. The greeting would be charming from anyone else, perhaps even from the guy himself if he’d not overheard the exchange moments before, but Steve’s insides curl at the condescension.

    “Yeah. For about five years. Thanks. And my name’s Steve,” he responds, voice clipped. He yanks at the ties of his apron, knotting the bow just a little tighter than is comfortable. He’ll have to adjust it later, but the man’s dark eyes are roaming over him like he’s something edible, and there’s no way Steve’s going to give any indication whatsoever that he’s prey.

    “Nice to meet you, Steve. I’m Eddie.”

    Steve can’t prevent the way his face scrunches in confusion, because surely not. There’s no way that this is the Eddie. Sure, he’s not exactly hard on the eyes, but from the little Steve’s experienced of him so far, he seems like a major ass. The way Bridget had hyped him up, anyone would think fucking Jon Bon Jovi worked here.

    OR

    when the upmarket cocktail bar Steve's working at goes out of business, he finds himself in desperate need of a job.

    Summary

    "It was overcast at Silverstone, that afternoon. It was cooler than last year, the wind from Friday had died down significantly, and the likelihood of seeing rain was slim to none. Conditions were favorable, and Steve had had good runs in practice and snagged P2 to start. Max had officially made her test debut for the team Saturday too, and Erica, despite her age, had gotten to be her race engineer; Max was going to get elevated out of testing and dev within the next two years and make motorsport history, and Erica was going to be the youngest race engineer in F1 history shortly there after, mark his words."

    In which Steve started racing go-karts at ten, and never looked back.

    “Can you feel it?”

    Steve blinks, slowly sitting up and looking down at his fingers against Eddie’s throat. His eyes widen and flick up to Eddie’s then down to his mouth.

    “Say something.”

    Summary

    Eddie wakes from a nightmare about the bats. Again.

    About a week ago, Steve Harrington gave him his number with instructions to call if he needed anything. Said number is tacked on Eddie's wall under his Anthrax poster.

    555-9878
    -Steve H.

    But it's 3:17 a.m. and Eddie probably shouldn't call. Definitely shouldn't call.

    (Eddie calls.)

    Summary

    “What the fuck is going on?” Steve shouts to himself, spinning around, looking for anything that could possibly explain how he ended up in Eddie Munson’s bedroom, in Eddie Munson’s fucking body.

    There’s a soft rap on the door followed by a man’s concerned voice, “you alright, Ed? Why’re you yelling?”

    Summary

    Because here's the thing: Eddie Munson has always been weird. Since Steve first saw him his freshman year, weird. But Steve Harrington has always liked him.

    Eddie was older, and cooler, and everything Steve wasn't. For the longest time Steve just called it jealousy, called it anger. He called it anything other than what it actually was: a crush.

    Summary

    It’s 1991 and Steve is still in Hawkins, still living with his mother, still single, and still working at Family Video. At least he’s the manager now, for whatever that’s worth. But he’s stuck here while Robin and Dustin and everyone else have moved away. Moved on.

    Well, everyone except for Eddie.

    They're best friends, spend most of their time together, and it's nice to have a friend like that. But Steve is still looking for love with a capital "L". At least, he thinks he is.

    “'I’m in love with you,' Eddie says, so casual, like it isn’t 3PM on a Tuesday in the middle of a Family Video in Bumfuck, Indiana. Like they’re somewhere else, like he’s someone else. Like it’s nothing extraordinary."

    Summary

    It had been two and a half months since the end of Spring Break.

    Eddie had been cleared of all charges, The Byers were back in Hawkins like they’d never left, Vecna was dead and gone, and everything was back to normal; or rather as back to normal as Hawkins could get.

    Unfortunately for one Steve Harrington, his new normal seemed to be not only his inability to get a date, but also his newfound proclivity towards staring at Eddie Munson’s mouth while he dramatically narrated during a five hour Hellfire session, or counting the freckles on the bridge of his nose, or memorizing the patterns in his honey coloured eyes.

    What the fuck was wrong with him?

    (Now with Eddie’s pov added!)

    Summary

    Steve Harrington knew a lot of things. He knew how to style his hair, how to move the strands into place.

    He knew how to swing a bat.

    He knew how to spit out words and make them hurt.

    He knew how to love fiercely.

    But for the life of him, he couldn’t figure out Eddie Munson.

    Summary

    "What’s scarier than saving the world? Figuring out what to do afterwards. I get it,” Eddie turns on his side, one shoulder on the wall, and grips the front of Steve’s shirt. His face is so close Steve can feel the warmth of his breath. “But we’ve got time now. Right, Steve? We bought us all time. Time to figure all our shit out. Isn’t that what matters?”

    OR

    Steve Harrington struggles to find purpose after the Upside Down.

    (But maybe purpose doesn't have to be big. Maybe it's helping Dustin navigate Sophomore year. Maybe it's reminding Robin to send in college admission letters. Maybe it's Eddie Munson. Maybe).

    Steve Harrington kind of had a thing for hands. Eddie’s hands to be specific.

    Eddie’s hands —

    in the upside down, gripped tightly around a bike handle, throwing Steve his vest, and then resting limply in Dustin’s hand, caked in blood and dirt and Dustin’s falling tears, and still even in impending death they were Eddie’s hands and they were beautiful.

    “I’m coming, man. Jeez. This isn’t life or death.”

    Steve opens the driver’s side door roughly. “Alcohol thins your blood. Lose too much and it will be life or death.”

    “It’s just a flesh wound,” Eddie insists in a bad British accent as he plops down in the passenger seat. When Steve only gives him a blank look, his grin falls. “Monty Python and the Holy Grail? No? Come on, dude, how do you work at a video store?”

    Summary

    Even though Eddie's name has been cleared legally, he's still very much on trial in the court of public opinion. Dealing drugs isn't a lucrative occupation anymore, and getting a legitimate job in a town who still considers him a killer isn't much of an option, either. Eddie is beginning to think skipping town and starting over somewhere no one knows his name is the only chance he has left. Steve has another idea.

    AKA: Steve gets Eddie a job as an anonymous columnist at a local newspaper.
