    Summary

    Inexplicably, Steve's hand reaches out to touch the carved letters that don’t even spell out Eddie’s real name. “Fuck. Shitty first date. I mean, if you want it to be. Otherwise, it’s just a talk. Guess you’ll have to tell me sometime.” For a heartbeat, he breathes there, pretends, between inhales and exhales, that the scent of Eddie’s cheap cologne, something spicy and soothing, always mixed with earthy weed, twines into the crests of the wind.

    Murmurs after a fashion, “I think he just misses you. And I miss you, and I miss him. And if you were here, you could roll your eyes with me and say something dumb, and I’d huff, and he’d groan, and we’d laugh. It’s all just... It’s all just broken now."

    ---

    Or, a series of Steve and Dustin moments that bring us from Eddie's death to Stranger Things 5. Or, Dustin is struggling with Steve being alive and Eddie being dead, and Steve is struggling with missing them both. Or, tissues out, it's terrible and beautiful.

    Bonus: Steve sews Dustin’s shirt up when the bullies rip it up. || Robin sews Steve up when Dustin rips him up. || Dustin can't stop worrying about 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

    “I know you care about what those little twerps think of you, and I can assure you they think way too highly of you,” Eddie says with a wink, and Steve gives a half-hearted smirk for just a moment. “But look… I know I can’t ask you to stop worrying about those kids, so how about this? You worry about them, and you let me—actually let me—worry about you.

    Steve pushes his hair back, and yet again, gravity instantly pulls it back down, since he’s looking at his feet. “…I don’t need anyone to worry about me.”

    “Too fucking bad. Someone’s gotta do it, and it’s gonna be me.”

    “Why?” Steve replies with a raspy laugh, shaking his head slowly.

    Why? Why.” Eddie crosses his arms tightly across his chest, knocking his foot into Steve’s again with a bit more strength. “Because we’re friends, dipshit.”

    --In which Eddie's got a reason he's been planning on leaving Hawkins since long before the world almost ended. The only thing keeping him in town at this point? His promise to be friends with Steve Harrington. And Eddie doesn't break promises.

    Summary

    “Look, I’m just asking, okay? Not– I don't mean anything by it. But, uh.” His eyes darted back and forth, then he leaned in close to Steve. Steve had gotten used to that, kind of. The guy had no concept of personal space. “Are you flagging?” Eddie finally finished.

    Steve shook his head slowly, eyes narrowed. He had no idea what that meant. He had no answer. “What?”

    Eddie leaned away from Steve, facing forward again and nodding. “Okay, got it. That answers my question. Carry on.”

    -------------------------------------------------

    A (mostly) innocent question leads Steve Harrington on a journey of self-discovery, friendship, sex, and romance.
