Summary
Inspired by @wlwsqk on Twit: "he met a boy and fell in love during summer camp when he was young and they wrote to each other all year round, waiting for summer again. but then steve's dad found the letters, and the other boy never knew why he never got another letter, or why steve didn't come back to camp'
Eddie got 1 perfect summer when he was 11. He met a boy with big brown eyes and hair like sunshine. They spent every day together and promised to write until they met again at camp. And they did, until, 2 months before summer, the letters stopped. Eddie’s last few came back 'return to sender'. At camp, the bunk beside him housed an unfamiliar face.
Now he’s 17, shipped off to Hawkins to live with his uncle after his dad screwed everything up. On his first day, he walks into homeroom and there he is: Steve Harrington. Eddie still had the old letters, tucked safely in a shoebox under his bed, rereads them when the world feels too big and lonely, remembers flower crowns and being told he looked pretty.
He stepped towards him eagerly, expectantly, hoping for that same sunshine smile, the flame of recognition.
Steve just wrinkles his nose. “Do I fucking know you?”
Well. Fuck you too.

Summary
Steve turned around with a grin and propped his elbows up on Munson's desk. Then, before he could really think about the words coming out of his mouth, he said, “Guess that makes us married then, huh darling?”
Munson, of course, stared back at him blankly, but instead of backtracking or something, Steve batted his eyelashes for good measure, really hamming it up.
Munson blinked at him once. Then twice. Then he raised an eyebrow and said, deadpan, “What the fuck are you talking about?”
***
In the last month and a half of Steve's senior year, he gets paired up with Eddie Munson for the final project in Mrs. O'Donnell's Home Economics class. The assignment? To take care of a fake baby for four weeks. For some reason, Steve finds himself surprisingly excited. Eddie, not so much.

Childhood best friends.
Annual road trips.
Cassette tapes full of Eddie’s voice.
One broken-down car, one Christmas-themed motel, and exactly one bed.
Sometimes love sneaks up on you.
Sometimes it’s been there since you were kids.
