Summary
Their faces are close, now. Pine and leather wash over Steve again, and stars spark behind his eyes. He staggers a little, and Eddie grabs for his arms. "Whoa, whoa, careful," he murmurs.
"Something's wrong," Steve says shakily. "I don't feel right."
"Come with me, ok? Gotta get you somewhere safe."
Safe. That sounded…really good.
The alpha's arm around his waist is really good too. Awesome, in fact. Steve leans heavily on him, his steps uncoordinated and slow as Eddie leads him away from the river and into the trees.
Briefly, the fact that this unknown alpha could be leading him anywhere crosses Steve's muddled mind. But the thought doesn't linger long - for some reason, deep down in his gut, Eddie feels…safe.
*****
Unexpectedly, Steve presents as an omega. Luckily there's a kind alpha around to take care of him, even if they've only just met...

Summary
Soul flowers aren’t a ticket to true love, he knows that well enough, but they do mean importance, significance, permanence. And so far no one has ever loved Steve significantly or permanently enough to leave some. Maybe that means he’s broken. Maybe that’s why he can’t leave any for her.
So Steve lets Jonathan take Nancy home that night, and tries not to feel too bitter about the matching bracelet of roses on Jonathan’s hand.

Summary
“And with Buckley away…are you on your own for Christmas?”
“Yeah.”
“No.” Eddie shakes his head. “Nope, you’re coming with me.”
“Eddie – ” Steve argues as the alpha pushes himself to his feet.
“C’mon, let’s pack some stuff for you. Where’s your bag?”
“I can’t just crash your Christmas!” Steve protests.
“Sure you can,” Eddie retorts.
*****
Alone on Christmas Eve, Steve suffers from isolation sickness.
Eddie's the cure.

Summary
This fic is actually based on a request I received on tumblr and my brain spiraled and I ended up needing more than just a little ficlet for it:
Steddie au of little Freshman Steve Harrington being taken under the wing of sophomore Eddie Munson instead of Tommy Hagan? Like he's still a jock by way of playing baseball and being on the swim team but he plays DnD and acts like he dislikes metal just to see Eddie go on a rant about it. (Also Eddie gives me the vibe of that one kid who was really smart in elementary/middle school, who just got everything instantly, so he didn't learn good studying habits. So then in high school and it was actually starting to challenge him, he was adrift and never got his sea legs.

Summary
Billy Hargrove doesn't keep his promise to Max. He doesn't keep it in a pretty spectacular fashion, actually. Instead of staying away from her friends, he murders one of them.
Unfortunately for Billy, Hellfire meets right after basketball practice. And fortunately for Steve, Eddie knows CPR.
(Or: There is a clearly defined set of steps to keep someone's heart beating. There's no guide for the aftermath. Steve, Eddie, and everyone they love write one together.)
