Summary
No one has caught Steve Harrington’s eye in a while, and he’s not going to go looking. And with his tendency to get involved with interdimensional bullshit and the gaggle of teenagers that follows him around, it’s probably for the best. He quickly learns that the universe has other plans for him, and they come in the shape of a goofy, guitar-wielding nerd.
In which Steve is just trying to live his life but Eddie is essentially hitting him over the head with a very flirtatious hammer.

Summary
Eddie never thought that he would end up hanging out with Steve, let alone driving twelve hours across multiple state lines with him. He can't quite figure out why Steve offers to go, but he's pretty sure it's going to kill him.

This is quite simply an excuse to write eight thousand words of flirty banter because we didn't get enough of it in the show.- Language:

Summary
"You promised! You promised Steve you wouldn’t do anything stupid and then you did the stupidest fucking thing you could possibly do!” Dustin’s voice cracks. He wipes the tears away from his cheeks with his palms.
“Dustin, don’t you think you should…” Steve starts.
“Don’t rescue me, Harrington,” Eddie interrupts. “I’ll take my admonishment.”
-or-
Eddie lives, Steve is merciful, and life in Loch Nora goes on in unexpected ways.

Summary
The Hawkins Public Pool is open from Memorial Day to Labor Day, 8AM to 8PM, seven days a week. It employs three lifeguards, two of whom work each day: one from 8 to 2, and one from 2 to 8.
Objectively, Eddie knows that it’s weird for him to know this. Why should a guy who Does Not Swim concern himself with the work roster of a public pool he Does Not Swim at?
Or: Lifeguard Steve and Eddie meet up at the pool after hours.

Summary
Vecna is dead. It's the summer after the party's freshman year. Steve Harrington spends it in the Family Video Store, and Eddie Munson is spending post-graduate life bothering him. And maybe Steve isn't as bothered as he used to be.
