    Summary

    The entire time, he kept checking his wrist every few minutes. He knew there was supposed to be a short, sharp burning sensation when the names appeared, but he still felt the need to check.
    Just after the cookies went into the oven and the phone had rung with the call of a classmate the burning sensation finally appeared. Steve cursed and almost dropped the phone in his haste to look at his arm.
    “What the fuck?”

    Robin Buckley
    Eddie Munson

    Those were the names on Steve’s wrist.

    On their eighteenth birthday, everyone gets the name of their two soulmates on their arms. One is assumed to be a platonic soulmate, and the other a romantic soulmate. There is no indication which one is which.

    Summary

    Steve has just come out to Robin. And he's only 98% sure he's gay. And that's only because he has a drunk crush on someone. He doesn't even know if he likes the guy when he's sober. He hasn't seen him sober in months, so there's no possible way for him to know. But when he has to spend the entire night on an unexpected camping trip with him at a secret lake in the mountains... will he be able to keep his crush a secret?

    Summary

    “God, you really haven’t changed, have you?” Eddie muttered quietly before pitching his voice somewhere between cheerful and mocking, “Still so easy to rile up- you make it way too easy,” then he tilted his head, nearly condescending, “Lemme fix your car, big boy. Then we can chat. Catch up on old times.”

    ***

    It's 1990 and Steve Harrington is lost. He's got it all- the house is on the way, he's teaching the kids, Henderson still pops around from time to time- he should be happy. He should have everything his small town heart desires and wanting anything more- wondering about it- is plain selfish.

    Then a sudden guest from the past wearing platform boots and a wicked grin arrives- opening old memories that should have stayed long buried- and turns Steve's world sideways forever.

    OR: Pre/Post S5 Rewrite. Eddie Munson survives. Steve Harrington puts up with him. This story tells their past, present and future- what it means to fall out of touch and get right back in it.

    Summary

    Steve’s finally done it.

    After saving Barb and Will from the Mind Flayer, he confessed his feelings to Eddie – and now they’re a thing. An actual thing. Steve is on the cusp of graduating, has a summer job lined up, and Eddie is finding every available opportunity to make out with him.

    Life is good. Almost perfect, really.

    Except Eddie still won’t put a label on what they are, he balks at the idea of even their closest friends finding out about them, and Steve can’t help wondering if Eddie really wants him the same way Steve wants Eddie.

    When Steve has visions of Billy Hargrove with black veins under his skin and of a damn meat monster tearing through the new Starcourt Mall, he realizes that figuring out his relationship status with Eddie Munson may unfortunately be the least of his problems.

    Summary

    Steve raised a questioning brow. “You came all the way to…Loch Nora…so I could turn my walkie up…”

    “Yeah, well,” She started, looking at everything but him. “You’re always on Dustin’s case about batteries and the walkies…figured you’d wanna know.”

    “Uh huh.” Steve may have been foggy from his nap, but he wasn’t stupid. Her act of disinterest was just that. An act. She wouldn’t look at him for more than a few seconds before her gaze drifted down to her feet, then to the side bush, then back to him. Never quite looking him in the eye, more like glazing over him in general.

    Which said a lot about the girl who looked monsters in the face and made grown men cry.
