Summary
Steve Harrington never planned to be anyone’s hero, but he kept showing up anyway—like it was instinct.
And maybe Will Byers was a little too observant, because he noticed. Every time.--or--
5 times Steve took care of Will, and the 1 time Will returned the favor.

Summary
Steve huffs begrudgingly. He doesn’t really want to spend his Tuesday and Thursday nights watching some random kid, but arguing with his mom when she’s already made up her mind is like trying to stop a freight train with brute force. “Okay. I’ll do it.”
Tuesday comes far, far too fast.
Steve pulls up to the Byers’ house just after five, the late September sun transforming almost everything in Hawkins into shades of orange. The house is strikingly small, set back from the road with a cluttered yard and a worse for wear front porch. It certainly isn’t the place Steve usually finds himself, and he feels weirdly conspicuous as he gets out of his mom’s car. He realizes, he’s never really seen the shitty part of Hawkins too much. A small surge of rare gratefulness rushes through him.Or, when Steve takes on the job of babysitting a young Will Byers, his life changes in some various unpleasant ways.

Summary
He made a list of people who deserved to know first:
His Mom
His Brother
Some Former Douchbag Jock Who Honestly Should Be Bottom of the Barrel On This Kind of List (this seemed essential, at least, according to Robin)It helps when all 3 of these people are family.
(Will Byers & Jason Carver are Cousins AU)

Summary
What if Steve hadn't fully been the jerk we were introduced to in Season 1?
In 1982, Steve Harrington was told he needed a tutor, and Jonathan Byers was their suggestion. What started as just a tutor session became goofing off. What became goofing off became a secret friendship. Jonathan hated the spot light, and Steve wasn't quite ready to release his popularity. But things get put into perspective in 1983 when Will Byers goes missing. Steve and Jonathan have to ask some hard questions.
