Summary
Steve Harrington has always been different.
He was raised to be polite, observant, and useful. Steve learned how to smile, how to listen, how to blend in, how to use his abilities without ever letting anyone see.
When strange things suddenly occur in Hawkins Steve already recognizes the signs.

Summary
Once the Upside Down is sealed, Eddie’s hunger is entirely his own, sharp edges smoothing into something heavier, entirely human in its greed. Heat pools in his icy veins, and he starts to test it, just a little, never one to leave interesting things alone. There’s an undeniable undercurrent of lust to the whole thing, especially when he lets his grip linger, draws the moment out, murmurs Steve’s name and bites his bicep instead, starts feeding from his neck and never goes back, dreams about sinking his fangs into the meat of Steve’s thighs, of being completely surrounded by his warmth.
He learns to drink more slowly, to savor the way Steve clings to him, and is surprised when Steve crawls into Eddie’s lap one night and doesn’t ever offer his wrist again. Eddie delights in how he softens the more he takes, the more Steve offers, like being needed is a balm instead of a burden.
It’s intoxicating in a way blood alone never could be.
It’s how Steve acts in the aftermath, though — how he lingers, how dazed his eyes are, the softening of his shoulders — that keeps Eddie coming back for more.
OR: Eddie needs blood to survive. Steve loves to volunteer.

Summary
Steve hated it. Hated how Nancy used him, cheated on him with Jonathan Byers, how she spread the news about him being an only male Omega in their school and making him look like a fool to everyone. He was just tired of it but when the kids came to him for help with the Demogorgon and protecting them, it changes him. Now all he wants to do is protect his five pups from the Upside Down world but when his pups want to become friends with another making him meet an alpha that is a bit of an asshole but was trying to change.
Or
Where Billy isn't much an asshole towards Steve, the kids, and his sister but is towards everyone else and that he protects the kids, and Steve from the Demodogs when they attack the Byers house instead of fighting Steve.

Summary
No one ever wants to be punched to the point of a concussion and unconsciousness, but Steve can't really say he is upset about it. Who knew a hard hit to the head could undo the work of a man who wanted to make sure Steve would never remember his mistake. Or his past. And all it took was taking Billy's hit for Steve to remember everything. And he has never hated anyone more as he stared down at his wrist with a glaring tattoo he revealed through carefully plastered prosthetics.
005.

Summary
In 1983, Steve Harrington first noticed his neighbor leave out food just before sunset. The thing was, Steve had grown up with this old woman as his neighbor. Old Minnie Bennett had lived as Steve’s neighbor for as long as Steve could remember. She had an old tree house in her back yard, waiting for the grandkids that would never visit. Mr. Bennett had passed away some years ago, when Steve had still been a child. Mrs. Bennett’s son got into a fight and refused to see her now. At least, that was what the town’s people said.
