    Summary

    If there's one thing Steve Harrington has learned about himself over the last few years, it's that he'll do almost anything to protect the people he cares about.

    Steve Harrington defeated a faceless monster with nothing but a nail-filled bat and sheer terror to guide him.

    Steve Harrington defended a group of kids from 'rabid dogs' and an even more rabid teenager and got a plate cracked over his head for his troubles.

    Steve Harrington just spent the past several hours being tortured by agents of a foreign superpower for the crime of being best friends with a toothless thirteen year old.

    So, when Steve Harrington thinks to himself, in the depths of what is definitely not a full-blown panic attack, "If Jonathan doesn't stop this car right now, I'm going to climb over the backseat and strangle him to death with the stupid fucking ascot I've been forced to wear for the past two months." He means it.

    Summary

    But then Eddie saw a whole pile of kids get in Harrington’s car, and he overheard Nancy Wheeler say that “Steve was babysitting,” and that image didn’t even remotely align with anything Eddie knew about King Steve “The Hair” Harrington, but he figured he didn’t know much, anyway, and it wasn’t any of his business, when it came down to it.

    Eddie thought so little of it, in fact, that he had almost forgotten that Max had apparently been babysat by one Steve Harrington. That is, until Steve Harrington started showing up at the trailer park, picking up Max and driving away, and then Eddie wouldn’t see Max at home again for days on end. 

    Eddie didn’t know much about babysitting, but he was pretty sure the gigs were more of an hourly thing.

    ---

    Or: Steve takes care of everyone, but Eddie takes care of him.
