In a Hawkins where the StarCourt Mall incident closed the Upside Down for good, Steve Harrington and Eddie Munson met organically through their mutual friends in the Hellfire Club. What started as an unspoken rivalry quickly evolved into something more. Something that's driving Steve crazy in the worst way, and yet -- in the best way.

A few weeks after beating Vecna, Steve finds himself struggling with nightmares. Again. Little does he know, Eddie is in the same boat. (A/N: Its a bit slow at first, but after the first couple chapters it'll speed up a bit. Thanks for reading!)

Cover by @/maalidoesart on Tumblr. After defeating Vecna, the town of Hawkins, Indiana tries to return to normal. Still homeless, Eddie begins to take interest in the friend that he helped conquer the Upside Down: Steve Harrington. His feelings are buried deep beneath trauma and fear, but with help, he begins to unravel his own identity. Steve struggles with his bisexuality and fear of coming out to the man he's beginning to fall for: Eddie Munson. He tries to reconcile them among friends, but his façade is slowly crumbling. This story contains strong language, violence, etc. Each chapter is prefaced with a trigger warning if needed.

This mystery person led him into a spot in the woods that he used to frequent, skull rock. Steve had his eyes pressed shut, like he was waiting to get killed. "Damn, you look good in my clothes Harrington." Steve's eyes shot open, he was face to face with "Eddie?" {Steddie} {takes place after Vol.2 so there will be spoilers!!} {vampire Eddie} {cover art is by Kasia on Twitter!} {sorry for any spelling errors!}

Steve's always been the jealous one according to the group, according to literally everyone. Even the kid who supposedly praises him. Everyone tells him that he's jealous of Dustin finding another older friend to have by his side. But no one knows why and that it's not all jealousy. He dropped what he was doing and turned around making cold eye contact with her. "Robin. I'm being serious. Drop it." The girl tensed up and worry gathered on her face for a short second. "Okay, okay. If it's that bad then I won't bother you about it again. I'm sorry okay?" She raised her hands up in a surrender and went back to the vhs's on the counter next to her. Steve took a long breath and rubbed his hands over his face. The bell on the door rand, but Steve ignored it. He was already stressed out enough as it was. "Steve!" He could hear two pairs of footsteps walking up the counter, one being the short curly haired boy he'd taken on as one of his best friends years ago. "Hey Henders-" Steve lost all track of thought in a matter of seconds, his breath was stuck in his throat along with any words he could've possibly thought might help in the situation. His face burned red and his hands started to shake. There was a familiar , now taller, curly haired boy standing behind Dustin. A way to familiar, curly haired boy. "Hey, Steve." #1 in: steve x eddie #1 in: the hair #1 in: steve harrington x eddie munson #1 in: steddie #1 in: harrington #1 in: the freak #1 in: stranger things au While I do own the story line and plot, I do not own the characters or the names that were created by the Duffer Brothers!🤍

Steve has a crush...on Eddie. It's been lingering in his blood for 5 years now. Ever since they fought in the Upside down together. 5 years of never forgetting those chocholate brown eyes, those sexy sinewy arms or those hands... It's in his system, all the time and he can't quit those thoughts. But they haven't spoken in 5 years, Steve is all alone in Hawkins now. Everyone else has left. So why not go see Robin and Nancy when he's off from work for spring break? There's nothing to lose...or win from it. Just a trip to see old friends... 🔥This does have some pretty graphic smut in it but it takes a while between those parts. I got kinda carried away with the story at large.🔥 🛑WARNINGS🛑 Strong language, alcohol use, mention of drugs, graphic sexual activities (M/M in case you're sensitive to that), mention of homophobic slurs used against characters. I hope you enjoy this, been in my mind for a while so needed to get it out. XoXo Jennie

Steve Harrington is the king of Hawkins High. Eddie Munson is the freak of Hawkins High. The thought of even talking to Eddie made Steve laugh because he thought it would never happen. One conversation can change everything. ⚠️TW⚠️ mentions of blood, fighting, violence, (plus a lot of other stuff. a trigger warning will be disclosed at the beginning of every chapter that needs one, and what it is for) - you're welcome to spam comments, i will reply to them when i can. (i love reading your comments!) - no smut (i don't care what you want. I AM NOT. WRITING. SMUT.) - mild language warning - keep in mind this is my first time writing a fan fic so if i make a mistake, just politely let me know! - i don't claim ANY of the art! - enjoy:)

A Steve Harrington and Eddie Munson fanfiction. This will contain difficult topics so please read at your own risk. I hope you enjoy this story just as much as I enjoyed writing it. The topics included will consist of grieving, selfharm, drug use, homophobia and violence. Other Stranger Things characters will have strong parts in the story, of course. I would never leave them out! They will all be there. This story will have some links to the true events of which occur in Stranger Things but it will really only be links and references. The story ranges in location between Hawkins and California but it will be clear who is where and when, so it shouldn't get confusing. If you are going to read this, thankyou! I truly hope you enjoy. - CJ

Eddie Munson, 'the freak' of Hawkins high hated Steve 'the hair' Harrington, he was a douche and so clearly in love with himself, but did Eddie really hate Steve or did he hate the thought of seeing him with other girls?
