Summary
It starts like this: Steve, waiting in his car to pick up Dustin and friends from a session of their Chutes and Ladders club or whatever. Waiting kind of impatiently, to be honest, even though it’s not like he has anywhere else to be because Robin’s busy tonight and, as he well knows by this point, saving the world doesn’t get you a girlfriend or glory or even a second age-appropriate friend, it just gets you another evening shift at Family Video and a long personal to-do list.
In the spring and summer of 1986, Steve Harrington contends with the biases of the day, hatches several plans, and finally really gets to know Eddie Munson.

Bookmarker's Notes
“Yep,” says Robin brightly, apparently having gotten the message. “I’m a sucker for a continuation of a larger franchise! Can’t get enough of them. Don’t even need to see the first movie, just give me a part two, that’s what I say!”

Summary
"I think this is probably just going to be one of these things," Eddie tells him. "You know, like… You could probably give me a whole manual and I’d still be weird about it. Like… I kinda just need to find a dick, suck it, and have it done with, y’know?”
“Well, you ever want help with that one, just hit me up,” Steve says, chuckling.
Steve really just wanted to help out.

Summary
Munson's complete inability to stay still does not pair well with explicit instructions not to bend or stretch excessively, and to take it easy walking and carrying things. All of which Steve catches him doing on a daily basis.

Summary
“Sorry if you got a lot of shit about it. At school. From- you know.”
Eddie stares at him. “From… your basketball lackeys?”
“Sure. Yeah.”
Is this… is Harrington winding him up?
“Are you winding me up?”
“What? No. No!”
“Pardon my hesitance,” Eddie says, narrowing his eyes, “this is just- kind of unexpected. And by that, I mean- a bit of a mind fuck.”
Steve clears his throat, looks down at his shoes.
Eddie kind of dances from side to side, ducks down to recapture Steve's gaze. “And by that- I mean- cereal shopping with Steve ‘the hair’ Harrington while he apologises on behalf of high school jocks everywhere.”

Gareth's unintentional matchmaking skills lead Eddie to three new discoveries:
1. Steve Harrington is very bad at math
2. Steve Harrington is very fucking weird
3. Steve Harrington is dangerously easy to fall in love with- Language:

Summary
“Which of you morons,” she hisses, “let Eddie log into twitter today?”
Eddie blinks.
“How do you-”
“Because, Eddie- you commented using the band account. You logged in on our official socials.”
Eddie stares at her dumbly. Then-
“Oh fuck.”
“Yes,” she agrees. “Oh fuck.”
“I’ll- delete that, then,” he laughs nervously. “Before-”
“Before someone picks up on it, screenshots it, begins distributing it across the internet at a frankly alarming pace and starts a series of hashtags up in an effort to find the ‘pretty boy’ gardener you were lusting over?”---
Eddie is a burnt-out-overworked-crash-and-burn-rockstar with a crippling twitter addiction. Steve is a chronically-offline-homegrown-indiana-boy-flowershop-owner with a green thumb and a penchant for taking in strays.
So naturally when Eddie first sees him, he's head over heels. And Steve has no clue what his day job is.
He'll tell Steve about his 'real' identity before things go too far- right?- Language:
