    Summary

    After years of sharing classes Eddie finally found himself interacting with Steve Harrington. Inexplicably the guy wouldn't leave him alone. How is Eddie supposed to suppress his dumb crush when he can't dodge the object of his desire?

    Set right after season 2, and goes up through 3. This is a slow burn, my friends. Lots of flirting and banter, and fluff, but knowing me there will be a little angst mixed in for flavor.
    Tags will likely update as I go.

    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

    Eddie’s graduating and ‘85 really is his year. The Lab is in the past and the Upside Down is locked away behind closed gates that will never open again. He’s got two jobs and rock star dreams. Nothing is going to come between him and living the life of freedom he never thought he could have.

    Steve is graduating and nothing is what he thought his life would look like at this point. There are a lot of things he wouldn’t give up or change: his friends, the kids in the Party, and Eddie. But there’s a lot he would change, too. His dumb nightmares, the God awful uniform at his new job, and the migraines that have started to really cramp his style.

    When it starts to look like things with the Upside Down aren’t as settled as they thought Steve, Eddie, and all their friend are going to find out that predicting the future doesn’t always guarantee a happy ending for everyone but working together just might.

    Summary

    “Don’t crack on me now, Munson,” Steve says.

    “Aww,” Eddie replies, trying to make his tone its usual cloying flirtation, “didn’t think you cared, your highness.”

    He twists his mouth up at the side. It doesn’t quite land on a smirk—he can feel the way it wobbles. If Harrington notices, he doesn’t call him on it.

    With a roll of his eyes, Harrington responds, “like you said, no people means no help, means you’re all I’ve got.”

    Or: Steve & Eddie get pulled into the Upside-Down and become reluctant allies. For survival.

    Summary

    Eddie had done a lot of running recently. He’d run when Chrissy died, when Jason and his gang was hunting him, when the cops gave his name to the town and started a witch hunt for the freak. He’d run from all of it, and more.

    He’d run from the lab. He’d run from Papa.

    He couldn’t run any longer.

    Eddie Munson has powers, a lot of questions, and chunks of memory missing. He doesn't ask why. He tries not to. Sometimes he can't help himself but ask.

    Summary

    “Don’t start something you can’t finish, Harrington.” She threw his words right back at him. In her mind, she meant it as a joke. Spoken out loud, the silent urgency was too clear to ignore. After everything she’d been through, she didn’t think she could take anymore surprises.

    A wisp of a smile cut through his stoic mask, reminding her again just how unfairly pretty he was. Far too pretty for a regular guy. Far too pretty, even with the scars from the outline of that demon tail’s grip, the bruise a vivid red, a near perfect shade to the slightly, more jagged cuts slashed across his chest. As he brushed that thumb over her bottom lip again, more slowly this time, Eddie felt those shivers reach down to her toes.

    “I always finish what I start, Munson.”

    The five times Harrington surprised Eddie and the times she surprised him right back

    Summary

    Eddie remembers dying. He remembers that his name is Eddie. He remembers flashes of a world full of monsters. He remembers fear. He remembers pain. He remembers the world going black. He remembers waking up here.

    That's what he tells the doctors when he wakes up.

    OR; Eddie lost his memory in the upsidedown instead of dying and falls in love with Steve while working to recover who he used to be.

    Summary

    “Your grades are currently less than stellar, as usual, Mr. Munson but limping along. Without any P.E. credits, however, you will be unable to graduate this year, much less manage to reach your senior year. Coach Williams is offering to supplement those missing credits if... you join the school's new lacrosse team."

    And so starts the story about how Eddie joined a sports team, fought monsters, and fell in love.

    Summary

    Now fully on the ground, he whipped around to face the beast, snatching up his bat as he turned.

    It was still trapped.

    He really didn’t have the patience for this.

    “Hey, Shithead! Your personal space bubble doesn’t get to be this whole fuckin’ cave!” He growled back.

    Summary

    It only took a minute before the barista slid over the drink. Steve picked it up and looked at it. “Steve” was written on it, a little crown floating above the letters.
    “I… I never told you my name.”
    “I didn’t need you to. Who could forget King Steve?” Ah, so that’s why he was vaguely familiar. He must’ve gone to school with him. Which means the image of Steve this guy probably had in his head was… yikes.
    “Ugh, don’t call me that.” Steve did not need to be reminded of his high school days.
    “His majesty doesn’t like his royal title?” The barista set his elbows on the counter and plopped his head into his hands.
    “No, not really. Not anymore, at least.”
    “Hmm.” The barista hummed in consideration and stood back up, “Well, enjoy, Harrington.”
    “Um, thanks…” Steve finally took note of the nametag on the barista’s apron, “Eddie.”

     

    Set in season 3, Eddie and Steve both work at the Starcourt Mall and maybe fall in love along the way.

    Summary

    Steve Harrington, a recent high school graduate who didn't get into college, is now being forced by his father to work in the brand-new Starcourt Mall, at Scoops Ahoy, an ice cream parlor.

    Steve was a bit of a charmer in high school, and he isn't going to let a recent breakup or this unflattering job stop him from getting a date. Only problem is, none of the girls he asks says yes.

    Just when Steve's convinced that free samples and failed attempts are all he'll get this summer, someone new walks into Scoops. And it changes everything.

    Oh, and something about evil Russian spies?

    Summary

    What if we saw Robins and Eddie's perspectives from season 1 and so on? What if they become friends before Steve and Robin? What if they get into the Hawkins mystery earlier than they would have liked? What if they found someone that could just make the loneliness a little more bearable?

    or
    Robin Buckley and Eddie Munson existed before season 3 and season 4 and the author thinks they would have been really good friends.
    also inspired by a Tumblr theory on S1 episode 3 when nancy calls the school phone and there a poster stuck on it with a similar font to the hellfire poster.
