Eddie escapes near death in the upside down. He lives but at what cost? He's horribly traumatized and still has to finish highschool on top of it. The bullying from the remaining alive jocks and the trauma from the event make it hard to live on everyday.
Sometimes Eddie wishes he had died that day. Even with support from his friends and his now boyfriend Steve Harrington, it's still hard for him to go about day to day life. Still, sort of determined to finish highschool. Will Eddie find a way to pull through this hellish life he lives in? Or will he fall apart like he wished he did that day?

Done Waiting
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 JennieComplete

Never Have I Ever [Steddie]✔️
*complete* *** In which two boys fall madlessly in love by accident *** "You really are a piece of work Harrington, you know that?" The metal-head shut his book and rolled over onto his back. "Thanks... I think..." Steve rolled over too. "That's a compliment, by the way. I've never met anyone like you before. So, carefree and chill." They looked up at the stick on stars on Steve's ceiling, both grinning. "I thought you weren't into me?" Steve teased. "I ain't, I've just never met anyone who's popular, hot and... nice." Eddie sighed. "So you do think I'm hot!" Steve gasped. "No! I'm just saying you're objectively attractive!" Eddie argued, laughing. *** Steve And Eddie weren't enemies, but they weren't exactly friends either. They were exact opposites. Steve was rich, with a big happy family. Eddie lived in a trailer with his uncle. Steve was popular. Eddie was the town freak. Steve was straight. Eddie was a (not so) closted gay. Under normal circumstances, the two would have never even interacted other than when socially required, but when they get dared into a game of Chicken Shit, and are forced to spend time together, they realize they may be falling for each other.

Take on Me
Steve Harrington and Eddie Munson, even though defeating Vecna and saving the world together, have not become the best of friends. Steve hates to admit it, but he is drowning in jealousy over Dustin and Eddie's friendship. OR If Steve would let go of his ego, he might actually learn that Eddie is a great guy and maybe, just maybe, they could become something more than acquaintances. Maybe something even stronger than friends. Warning: This story contains strong language, drugs, alcohol, partying, sex, and touches on topics like abuse.Complete

eddie was put straight into a coma after the shock of the morbid bat attack. who would be there to take eddie under their wings? that would be steve harrington, of course. considering eddie's trailer was split in half, steve decided to take the helpless male into his own home. steve had no clue what he was signing up for. this is to simply give closure. tt: garchiivesComplete

After All This Time (Steddie)
Bless you hellichk.tumblr.com for this absolutely lovely cover I want to print and frame it and keep it forever. I DO NOT take any credit for their art. Steve(21) Hasn't had a chance to leave this awful place. He has stayed around for the kids, wanting nothing more to be there for each one's graduation. Confused. Lonely. Depression has really started to hit in the last couple of years after all of the tragic losses to the upsidedown. Nearly losing everything and everyone he's cared for and loved. Most everyone has gotten their chance to escape, Nancy and Jonathan moved to California after graduation. Robin's off at college. Until he realizes maybe he's not so alone here, sparking a true friendship with the most unlikely person, Eddie Munson. Eddie(22) hasn't been able to get out of this town either after swearing he would get the hell out of here many years ago. The kids are all graduating this year, which will most likely end up giving the two now men, no reason to stick around anymore. But what will happen to the two friends when Steve realizes the feelings he's thought for so long to just be a platonic friendship have always been a little more? I do not own rights to the ST characters or themes but I do own rights to my own storyline. I will be using pictures from artists that I find as the art for each chapter. I don't think I could draw enough to cover a whole book so pls don't credit me for those either. Thx. 🙏 ~🖤KComplete
