Kids With Feelings Like You and Me, Understand Him, He'll Understand You (For You Are Him, And He Is You) by Oonionchiver

Summary
Everyone kinda wants him, Eddie.
They want to taste him.
When he’s on stage and his chest is bare and he’s dripping sweat and he spits his drink out into the audience in a fine spray and they go fucking wild, screaming till it hurts, until there’s hardly in any air left in the arena and he laughs, smiles, winks at the girls nearest, tongue out.
He’s a phenomenon, he’s a one man cult.
His tattoos, his scars, the way he sings about love that catches like thorns in the skin, hurts the good way.
And he’s notoriously private.
Except for a handful of incidents.
It’s the perfect storm.

Summary
Steve Harrington nursed Eddie back to health, kept him warm and well-fed, and quite literally led a quest into Hell to give him his real body back. Which is great. It’s fucking fantastic. Definitely did not make Eddie fall a little bit head-over-heels in love with the guy.
At least, that’s what he kept telling himself at first, because Steve is just a really good guy with a tendency to act like an overbearing mother and it absolutely, undoubtedly, one-thousand-percent did not mean anything.
But then the dust settled, and Steve had still looked Eddie in the eye and asked him to stay.
And then—!
Then Steve had kissed him.
Eddie desperately wants to know what it all means.
Eddie Munson is alive and human again, and it's time to deal with the consequences. Unfortunately, that means figuring out how to defeat Vecna for good, discovering that he hasn't quite managed to get rid of the bat in him, and dealing with whatever the fuck it is that he's feeling for Steve Harrington. None of it is going to be easy.

Summary
“Sorry, just wondering how this is my life. Talking about D&D to Steve Harrington on a dinner date in my trailer.”
Eddie stares at Steve while he continues eating, the thought just left hanging in the air until he swallows and says, "I know I didn't phrase it as such, but that was actually a question."
"Oh."
Steve hesitates. He pours himself some more wine to stall and wonders how to say this without sounding like an asshole. “So… Robin made this joke."
-
Steve’s not stupid, he knows Robin had said it as a joke, but the words, “There’s always Eddie” had passed her lips and Steve can’t stop thinking about it. In another world Eddie would have been perfect for Steve. You know. If Steve was into dudes, obviously. -

Summary
‘Blood?’ Eddie says again.
Eyes black but for the slice of iridescent white in the centre. His teeth are sharp, his hands are weapons and Steve thinks maybe he’s made a mistake doing this without telling Eddie first. Eddie’s focus lowers, it moves to his left hand which is…
Oh fuck.
It’s dripping blood onto the floor.
‘Shit,’ Steve says, takes a single step back, swallows. ‘Eddie, I’m so sorry, fuck.’
Eddie can’t seem to look away, can’t bring his ethereal gaze back up where it belongs. Steve thinks he should run, he should flee. A tiny part of him knows Eddie will chase him. Eddie will catch him, outrun him easily.
It's more than a little fucked up how that thrills him.

Steve Harrington's Deaths (And The Times He Maybe Saved The World). by badpancake
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
28 Aug 2022

Summary
“I had another one.”
It stops the playful atmosphere instantly.
Not everyone tells him when they have a Memento. Lucas had kept to himself, and Will had refused to tell Steve about his dream. Some of them just tell him, softly, I remembered number one-seventy-three, or I had a Memento, last night. Sometimes it’s easier to just mention that it happened, acknowledge it and move on.
And Robin, for the most part, had done this. She hadn’t mentioned the details, because she’s sure that Steve is tired of hearing them, doesn’t want to hear his death from another person’s eyes, another person who is left with his body for a day before the loop dissolves into nothingness.
AKA: In the aftermath of it all, when Steve is learning what happiness means for him, people start to remember his deaths.

Summary
Then all of a sudden the moments slow down, filtering through his mind like the sand in an hourglass, and when he blinks he’s got Hargrove pinned up against the brick with his fists.
Hargrove is momentarily too stunned to do anything about it. He’s still got a cigarette dangling from his mouth. He is also sporting a hell of a shiner, which makes something like satisfaction coil up like a snake in Eddie’s belly.
Apparently Steve doesn’t pull his punches, either.
“The fuck did you do to Harrington?” Eddie asks, his voice so low it’s practically a growl.

Asking You to Love Me by chattrekisses

Summary
Eddie collects the coffee from a hipster coffee shop on the corner–– why is it six dollars for a cup of juice? And why is it tangerine juice? What happened to good old orange?–– and starts to head back to his store.
He turns the corner and slams bodily into someone. The overpriced tangerine juice goes flying, spilling all down the front of the man that Eddie’s slammed into.
“Oh, Jesus!” says the man.
Eddie panics. “Oh, shitfuck, I’m so sorry. Here, let me help.” He pulls a bundle of paper napkins from his pocket and presses them to the chest of the man, trying to soak up the juice.
The man’s chest is very firm. Eddie looks up, finally catching sight of who he’s slammed into, and holy motherfuck it’s Steve fucking Harrington again.
Steve is a famous actor. Eddie runs a game store. After an incident involving orange juice, an unlucky romance blossoms between them. Notting Hill AU.

Summary
“Your heart’s racing,” Steve noted, quietly.
Eddie laughed. It was more of a shaky exhale, lashes fluttering as he struggled to keep his composure. “Stevie,” he whispered, fingers cradling Steve’s side like he was precious. “Yeah, no fucking shit.”
OR: Ma Henderson & Wayne Munson get cosy, Dustin makes an off-hand remark, and Steve spirals. It works out in the end.

Summary
Dustin didn’t notice. “It means, Steve, that we could be heroes. True, American heroes. Just imagine,” he starts, and now Steve was intrigued, scooting closer as Dustin painted the picture for him. “You could have all the ladies you want. And more.”
“More?” Steve considers it and decides that this is something he could get behind. He hadn’t realized when he’d started staring off into the distance like some fantasizing schoolgirl, and when that distance had just become Eddie Munson while he gave some teenager their soft serve. The guy was unashamedly staring, not even giving the teen his full attention. How unprofessional, he thought, like slinging ice cream was a job to take pride in. Eddie looked at him like he was a bug under a microscope, and Steve felt trapped under it. Dustin nods and Steve turns back to him. More. “I like more. What’s the catch?”
-
OR; a loose S3 rewrite where Eddie works at Scoops with Robin and Steve, and ends up uncovering a Russian underground base in the process.
