    Summary

    You lean forward, elbows settling on your knees, spine curved, cigarette smothered out against the metal lip of the gutter with a soft hiss. The rooftop beneath you is cool and slightly damp from earlier drizzle, that particular smell of rain still clinging to the shingles. Neither of you say anything for a long while.

    But then, in that Steve Harrington voice, quiet, scratchy from smoke and worn in history, “You think that’s what love is?” he asks.

    Your stomach drops. You glance over at him, unsure if it’s a jab or something real. Sometimes Steve forgets to soften the edges of his questions; forgets how easily you bruise. His face gives you nothing. Earnest, a little furrowed, but not cruel.

     

    You come to Steve for your ritual of smoking on his roof after another attempt at a relationship implodes. You try to figure out what you need.

    Summary

    Touch-starved doesn’t even begin to cover it.

    Steve Harrington is affection-starved. Love-starved. He’s been handing his heart out to people for years and getting scraps in return.

    He was the king of a kingdom that left him stranded in his own tower.

    Now, he wields proximity like armor. Like glue. Stick close, so maybe they won’t leave.

    You sit next to him, he leans. You stand near him, his fingers brush yours. You yawn, and suddenly he’s cradling your head, smoothing your hair like you’re going through something traumatic.

    You’re not.

    You’re yawning.

    And it would be funny, if it wasn’t all so completely, irreparably fucked.

    Summary

    Billy Hargrove has a twin sister, Bradley. Their dad only ever wanted boys; her long hair is her one form of protest until they move to Hawkins. Some might think something so superficial is bullshit, but she doesn't, and she doesn't think Steve Harrington is either. She makes new friends who give her the confidence to stand up for herself more, including the one and only Steve, "the hair" Harrington, who falls for her hard. Are two hairs better than one?

    Summary

    Before the events that shook Hawkins, Blair Henderson had a complicated past with Steve Harrington. Once inseparable, they drifted apart when Steve moved on, now dating Nancy Wheeler. Blair still carries feelings for him, hidden behind sarcasm and loyalty—especially to her younger brother, Dustin.

    As Hawkins plunges into chaos with Will Byers’ disappearance, Blair finds herself pulled into the mystery alongside the kids and the adults, navigating monsters, secrets, and betrayals. While she fights to protect her brother and friends, Blair also faces her own heart: can she accept Steve being with Nancy, or will she risk everything to win him back?

    In a town where nothing is as it seems, Blair must confront her past, her feelings, and the darkness creeping into Hawkins, learning that bravery doesn’t always mean facing monsters—it sometimes means facing your own heart.

    Summary

    You came to Hawkins thinking it was temporary. A place to pause, not to begin. You didn't expect to be noticed. You didn't expect to stay.

    After college, you spend the summer in Hawkins with your best friend, assuming nothing important will happen there. Steve Harrington seems easy to read - settled, rooted, ordinary - and therefore not your problem.

    You're both wrong in the same way.

    ---

    A post-canon, slow-burn story set in the summer of 1992 about misreading, small towns and choosing stillness without giving up movement.

    Under Dr. Brenner's care at Hawkins Lab, you all possessed unique psychic abilities, and to his great satisfaction, you were no exception. As a promising key figure central to his vision for the program's future, you diligently honed and mastered your powers, unaware of the predatory gazes fixed upon you. Among them, one in particular eyed your potential with dark hunger, viewing you not as a person but as a mere instrument to exploit for his own twisted gratification and to obliterate everything you held dear.

    "I can take care of myself. "
    "Alright,” Steve said with a shrug, giving up the fight far earlier than you expected him to. " Well, you don’t need to anymore."
    You blinked, confused. " What? "
    "You asked me why I was here…I dunno, thought I’d check your locks or whatever."
    Oh.
    So this is what it meant to have Steve Harrington as your friend.

    In which the quiet warmth of Steve Harrington’s presence in your life was at first surprising, then familiar, and later beloved.
