    Summary

    Eddie Munson is no stranger to bad choices. It’s how he ended up a single father selling drugs to keep him and his kid clothed and fed. Dumb choices have him fleeing Chicago in the middle of the night and renting a place in his shitty hometown in Indiana while he plans his next move.

    It’s also how he ends up asking his stupidly hot neighbor to babysit his daughter while he goes on a last-minute job interview, and much to his surprise, stupid-hot neighbor agrees. And it turns out he’s not just handsome, but funny, a great cook, he loves Eddie’s weirdo kid, and may just be the love of Eddie’s life.

    If only starting over and escaping his past was that easy.

    Summary

    Like a magnet to iron, Steve's eyes are drawn to Eddie again, still slouched in the passenger seat, chewing on a strand of his ratty mullet. Eddie may be the realest person he's ever met. Everything about him reeks of verisimilitude, of a rawness that taunts Steve and the carefully constructed crown he's tried so hard to leave behind.
    It isn't in his nature. Steve is made of brick and bone, a wall around everyone he's ever loved, and that's all that matters, in the end.

    -

    Steve Harrington has never known love to go two ways. It's always him giving and everything else taking and taking and taking, and the Upside Down has taken more than anything.

    It almost takes Chrissy Cunningham too, when Eddie Munson invites her to his trailer to buy drugs.

    She lives.

    Everything changes.

    (Or, Steve and Eddie get the chance to fall in love before the world ends)

    Summary

    There was a quiet noise before Steve’s voice picked up on the cassette once again.

    “I need you to know that the brief time I spent being loved by you, Edward Munson, was the best thing that has ever happened to me.”

    There was a click, and then he was gone.

    OR

    Steve died protecting Hawkins and now Eddie is left with nothing but a pre-recorded cassette and a broken heart

    Summary

    “Because I loved him,” Steve said, the words coming out barely above a whisper.

    Dustin blinked. “What?”

    ~

    Steve Harrington had gotten good at pretending. It was practically a survival skill at this point— smile at the right moments, crack a joke when things got too heavy, be the guy everyone could count on. He’d been doing it since high school, and a year after Eddie Munson died in the Upside Down, he’d almost convinced himself it was working.

    Almost.

    The problem was Dustin Henderson.
