    Summary

    “How long do you have?” he asks, staring intently into Eddie's big, dark eyes. Eddie looks at him for a long while.
    “Got nothin’ but time,” he eventually says, and Steve notes that his voice has a sort of gentle lilt when he speaks softly, something sweet and southern running through it. “Rich in that at least.”
    And so Steve sits down on the ground in the dirt. The air's hot and sticky, and by the time he stops talking, he isn't sure he's ever been that parched, not ever. He talks and talks. He doesn't stop for a long while.
    Eddie Munson listens quietly.

    ---

    The battle at Starcourt might have culminated in the end of the upside down back in '85, but Steve is still plagued by nightmares. Years later, he's the last one left in Hawkins - content to stay there, safe and alone and fading into nothing as the summer heat peaks again.
    A three am rendezvous at Sattler quarry changes that.

    Summary

    It starts out with a little bit of jealousy. Healthy. Steve doesn't like sharing. Typical only child. And every second word out of Dustin's mouth is Eddie Munson. Eddie Munson this, Eddie Munson that. Eddie thinks, Eddie said, Eddie doesn't like.

    Eddie, Eddie, Eddie.

    It's only natural to do a little background check. You wouldn't just let anyone babysit your kids.

    or: Steve Harrington starts stalking Eddie Munson. It might be more than he has bargained for.

    Summary

    Eddie Munson has no clue about the hanky code. Which becomes painfully clear when Steve Harrington—who’s been trying to flirt with him by showing up at Eddie's auto shop with increasingly suspicious car troubles—has to spell it out.

    Turns out, Eddie might not know much about the hanky code—but he does know how to make Steve fall for him without even trying.

    "You just said I was a bottom, out of the blue, on a Tuesday afternoon, and you're gonna tell me to forget it?"

    "I just thought you were, like—signalling."

    Eddie squints harder.
    "Signalling?"

    "Yeah?"

    "Signalling what? That I need a better life because I dropped out of high school and work in a garage for pennies?"

    Summary

    “Are you going to leave?” Steve’s back is to him, so Eddie can see the way he tenses up, muscles beneath his plain black shirt bunching up.

    It’s not: are you leaving before I pick up Max?

    He could be difficult, if he wanted. He could ask Steve to clarify, he could ask Steve if he’s ever planning to leave. He could stand up and just do it, putting them both out of their misery. One day they might be better off for it, even if the hurt is too much to stand right now. Even if it feels impossible.

    “Not right now,” Eddie says, which sounds a lot like not without you.

    “Okay,” Steve says, which sounds a lot like thank you.

     

    98% of the population disappears. Hawkins becomes a ghost town.

    Or: three years after, Steve, Eddie and Max try to carve out a life together.
