    *This fic will oscillate WILDLY between fluff, angst, smut and back again. Be warned!

    Summary

    “She truly is your daughter, Alex,” Henry sighs, defeated.

    “Fuck off, sweetheart,” he laughs, a soundbite of the sun. Henry forces himself not to physically react, the term of endearment sweet and menacingly familiar coming from Alex’s lips. It’s been years. “You know they’re useful.”

    “Ah yes, eyelashes, truly a formidable instrument in managing international relations.”

    Alex grins, and Henry is too late to catch the slightest downward lilt on the corner of his mouth, “Worked on you once, didn’t it?”

    Oh, did that ache.

     

    (Much had happened since the time Henry had told Alex to leave. Alex had passed the bar, gotten married, had the most beautiful daughter. And Henry, well. He stayed right where he was.)

    Summary

    After his breakup with Nancy, Steve Harrington keeps it a secret that he hasn’t made an effort to meet his soulmate. When he accidentally wakes up next to them a few days after his 18th birthday, he’s surprised to find that it’s not only another guy, but somebody else in Hawkins. Between losing all his old friends, learning how not to be an asshole, and balancing his newfound sexuality in a closed-minded town, Steve has his work cut out for him. Eddie Munson doesn’t believe in soulmates, but that doesn’t stop him from waiting in the dreamscape every night for his. Balancing life as an openly queer, drug-dealing super senior in Hawkins, Indiana is no cakewalk, especially with Billy Hargrove on his ass. But maybe, just maybe, there’s something to that whole soulmate thing after all.

    Summary

    “God, I love you so damned much that it hurts, Eddie. But, I can’t. I can’t stay here, I can’t be in this stupid fucking town. I have to,” He heaved out a shaking breath, his hand clutching the top of his car door so hard that his knuckles were white. “If I don’t leave now, I’m going to be stuck here for the rest of my life. I was already halfway down that path, maybe this is what I needed to get my shit together and get the fuck out.” 

     

    “Then let’s get outta here, Stevie. We can go anywhere you wanna go.” 

     

    “Anywhere?” He croaked out in response, his eyes fluttering open to see what he could of Eddie’s face with their close proximity.

     

    “I’d follow you anywhere, Steve Harrington.”

     

    In the summer of 1987, Steve's father kicked him out of the house in the pouring rain.
    The next year of his life proved to be everything he had ever wanted and so much more.
