Summary
There’s coffee in a thermos already waiting for him on the counter as he enters the kitchen. He picks it up, and takes a sip of the bitter beverage. As he lifts it to his lips, a note falls from the bottom. He picks it up from where it fell, scanning over the words.
“See you tonight, don’t wait up. Love you.
~S”He sighs, and slips the note into his coverall pocket. He walks over to the fridge, examining the calendar stuck to the freezer door. He sees his shift for today. Eight to five, just like it always is, six days a week. He sees Steve’s.
Seven to four. Five to close.

Summary
A year before Will Byers disappears, when Steve is 16 years old, he dreams of the Upside Down. The dream, a warning, means that high school plays out differently. Steve learns ahead of time who he actually wants to be, what to care about, and that he can be brave about a lot of things he wouldn’t expect--including Eddie Munson.
--
This is my excuse to rewrite Steve Harrington at Hawkins High, who deserves to feel true friendship and to play Dungeons and Dragons. And, of course, a nice love story with Hawkins’ hottest.- Language:

Summary
The lights go out. Steve keeps his eyes fixed just left of the thing, can just barely make out a shoulder and sort-of head in the light of the moon, and tries to swallow back the sickening feeling of being hunted. He wants to run for his house but he can’t. He can’t, because if he takes his eyes off the thing for even a second, he won’t know where it is, and that’s scarier than seeing it.
But then- then Steve’s vision blurs for just a moment too long, and when he blinks away the tears and looks, it’s gone.
Steve lunges for the house doors. When the patio lights flicker back on, the poolside is empty, and Steve Harrington is missing. No one notices.
Or: Steve Harrington gets dragged into the Upside Down instead of Barb Holland. Someone else comes out.Series

Summary
Everything's felt a little off since the Fourth of July, and no one's talking about it. Of course, one part of Steve's summer is a bit hard to ignore - he's losing his hearing. As luck would have it, a friend of Dustin's ends up playing a key role in Steve's adjustment to his new normal.

Summary
Watching Steve sit alone that first day- even with his ex and her new squeeze crowding his table- former King of Hawkins High with his bruised up face and puppy dog eyes, and apparently, knight in shining armor tendencies, Eddie never stood a chance.
It's Jeff, in the end, that finally badgers Eddie enough to let Steve be dragged over to their table- into Hellfire, and Dungeons & Dragons, and hopefully right into Eddie's arms- after Steve intervenes to stop Jeff being harrassed in the halls.
Now Eddie just needs to figure out what he's going to do with all of it.
Aka a hellfire adopts Steve fic, because give the boy some friends (and a boyfriend).

Summary
It seems like Eddie doesn’t want his friendship anymore. Avoids him in the halls and cafeteria, but Steve is nothing if not persistent. He writes a full letter in elvish to slip into Eddie’s locker, but Eddie catches him. Shoves the letter back, unopened, unread, with a harsh whispered, “Don’t you get it Harrington? I don’t want to be your friend. Fuck off.”
Steve and Eddie were best friends who make a promise to learn the elvish alphabet so that they can pass notes without worrying about other people reading them. Things don't work out how they'd planned, but Steve learns Elvish anyway. Just in case.

Summary
Eddie Munson, capitalist-hater and full-time menace, makes it a point to visit Scoops Ahoy three times a week—not for the ice cream, but to get a rise out of one Steve Harrington. At least, that’s what Robin thinks.

Summary
Hundreds of miles away Kali collapses into the nearest chair, the news forcing a choked sob from her throat. She’s thought all this time Seven was dead, had died at the hands of the lab and their soldiers for her. She had mourned him, the grief carried around with her each day. She never spoke of him, none of her friends knew he ever existed, the pain was still too raw after all this time. And to find out he’s alive? He’s walking around alive, living his life and she had never bothered even checking, too certain in his death.
——-
What if Steve was number Seven but had forgotten over the years, and what if El was accidentally shown the wrong memory, not one of her but of Steve escaping the lab all those years ago.

Summary
Despite trying his hardest, Steve never managed to live up to his parents' expectations. So why keep trying? Why not find out who he is, who he could be?
—
or, Steve learns to play the guitar, gets a boyfriend, and paints his nails (not necessarily in that order), Robin is along for the ride, and Eddie is having the worst (and best) weeks of his life

Summary
Robin gives Steve a long, considering look. Finally, she says, “You know, you’re really fucking weird, right? I mean. Like,” she waves a hand, “I wish I knew this when you were in school, Harrington. You’re just really fucking weird.”
“Thanks?”
Robin squeezes his shoulder and says, “I appreciate that you think that’s a compliment.”
Or-
In the summer of ’85, Steve works at Scoops Ahoy, fights some Russians, and makes some new friends.
Or-
Steve Harrington makes a mixtape.

Summary
Hellfire is down one member due to a basketball game, so Dustin is looking for replacements. Who better to call than Steve Harrington?
Too bad Steve says no. Even worse, Steve decides to make it his problem to confront Eddie Munson for messing with his rugrats' unbreakable bond because, really, wasn't Eddie the adult here? Shouldn't he be the one making the better call?
(OR: Steve Harrington unwittingly forces himself into Eddie Munson's introduction to the Upside Down)
(OR, OR: Season 4 rewrite where Eddie is both metal and gay, and Steve is a tired babysitter (mom) who makes a comment that leads to the wrong conclusion... but maybe... it's not wrong? Maybe it actually makes a whole lot of sense, now that he thinks about it...)
(OR, OR, OR: Season 4, but Eddie doesn't run and Mike doesn't go to California. And it changes pretty much everything.)

Summary
Had someone told Billy that he would fight monsters and bond with a bunch of kids one day, he would have laughed in their faces.
And had someone told him that he would fall head over heels for their doe eyed babysitter, he would have knocked their teeth out.
But here he was.
By accident.

Summary
“Let’s get this over with.” Steve mutters, setting his shoulders and planting his feet.
Out of the corner of his eye, Gareth can see that Wayne is watching their standoff with a calculating expression.
“We’re airing this out and moving on. And we are going to do it before Eddie gets home.” Harrington states with a finality that sets Gareth’s teeth grinding. As if Steve is the one who’s more concerned about their friend’s feelings than Gareth is at this point.Or
Gareth has had just about enough of Steve Harrington in the fall of '86. He sets about to do something about it. It takes an angry mob, a Corroded Coffin gig and a baseball bat full of nails for him to change his mind.
Gareth gets mad, Eddie gets beat up, Steve gets violent and Wayne is just really tired of everyone's shit.

Summary
2:11 a.m., July 4th, 1985. The day Billy Hargrove accepted that he was already dead.
That would be a shitty tagline for a story.Or
The one where Billy wrecks his car, gets help, makes a friend, and the world shakes on its axis.
