Summary
When Steve nearly runs over Will Byers on that fateful night in 1983, he doesn’t expect offering him a ride home would result in both of them being hunted into another dimension. Surviving there is hard. Adapting to normal life again is even harder. His old self settles like an ill-fitting suit, and there’s no room for nightmares and fear and his new bond with Will in it. As he struggles to find a new normal he can live with, Steve finds himself befriending a bunch of kids and maybe (definitely) falling in love with a local weed dealer.

Summary
Steve made a promise to himself then, sitting there in Carol Perkins’ spare room in a hellish version of Hawkins, that he was going to stop at nothing to find a way to get them both out of here. He felt the words settle into his bones, an undeniable truth that he had put out into the universe, unable to take back. An oath that nothing could force him to willingly break - He was going to get Will back home. He was going to keep him safe.
-
Instead of Barbra Holland being taken by the Demogorgon, Steve Harrington is grabbed instead. This is a fact that changes everything.
Now he must survive alongside a missing kid, all while being hunted by a monster. Neither Steve nor Will realise the effect this will have on more than just themselves, or on the world.
Or
Will and Steve’s journey through the Upside Down.

Summary
The lights go out. Steve keeps his eyes fixed just left of the thing, can just barely make out a shoulder and sort-of head in the light of the moon, and tries to swallow back the sickening feeling of being hunted. He wants to run for his house but he can’t. He can’t, because if he takes his eyes off the thing for even a second, he won’t know where it is, and that’s scarier than seeing it.
But then- then Steve’s vision blurs for just a moment too long, and when he blinks away the tears and looks, it’s gone.
Steve lunges for the house doors. When the patio lights flicker back on, the poolside is empty, and Steve Harrington is missing. No one notices.
Or: Steve Harrington gets dragged into the Upside Down instead of Barb Holland. Someone else comes out.Series
