    Summary

    “Which of you morons,” she hisses, “let Eddie log into twitter today?”
    Eddie blinks.
    “How do you-”
    “Because, Eddie- you commented using the band account. You logged in on our official socials.”
    Eddie stares at her dumbly. Then-
    “Oh fuck.”
    “Yes,” she agrees. “Oh fuck.”
    “I’ll- delete that, then,” he laughs nervously. “Before-”
    “Before someone picks up on it, screenshots it, begins distributing it across the internet at a frankly alarming pace and starts a series of hashtags up in an effort to find the ‘pretty boy’ gardener you were lusting over?”

    ---

    Eddie is a burnt-out-overworked-crash-and-burn-rockstar with a crippling twitter addiction. Steve is a chronically-offline-homegrown-indiana-boy-flowershop-owner with a green thumb and a penchant for taking in strays.
    So naturally when Eddie first sees him, he's head over heels. And Steve has no clue what his day job is.
    He'll tell Steve about his 'real' identity before things go too far- right?

    Summary

    337 days ago, Steve Harrington realized he liked guys.
    329 days ago, he learned the word “bisexual” from Robin Buckley.
    And 180 days before that there was Eddie Munson.
    Eddie was—
    Well, Steve learned not to focus so much on Eddie in the year he’d been gone.

    Eddie leaves Hawkins to pursue a music career and makes annual visits home for the Holidays. Steve has some feelings about it.

    Summary

    To the One Who Loves Him Next:

    1. If you hurt him, I will find you and make you regret the day you were born this side of the dimension. Yes, this is a threat; no, you don’t need to understand it beyond: be good to him.

    So this is how it starts; a threat of bodily harm because Eddie does not think he could bear ever seeing Steve hurt again. A message to a stranger because Eddie does not entirely trust himself to be the one who will make Steve happy for the rest of their days, no matter how badly he wants to.


    They survive; they fall in love; Eddie and Robin write lists about it (and eventually, so does Steve).

    Summary

    Eddie is alive.

    Eddie’s hair is gone.

    Eddie has a thin arc of a scar on the back of his head. The hair doesn’t grow there, grows around it, like water flowing around a stone.
