Summary
Steve wouldn’t consider himself lonely. Sure, the kids had all gone their separate ways to college and sure, Robin was also long gone in Massachusetts, but he wasn’t lonely. Just…alone. In Hawkins. Which was fine. It meant he got to do things like meet Wayne Munson in the baking aisle on a Friday afternoon and get a kind-of-old second-best friend. Steve wasn't complaining, not even when Wayne kept bringing up his nephew...like a lot. He kind of sounded cool...
Or Steve becomes good friends with Wayne Munson who is more than happy to introduce him to his nephew Eddie.

Summary

Which he supposes is strange really, if he thinks about it hard enough; it’s not like he’s had much luck with the emotion.
Romantically or otherwise.
Or Steve reflects on all the times he's fallen in love, familialy, platonically & romantically, while he struggles to define what exactly he feels for Eddie Munson.
Or OR Steve deserves love, in all its forms and the author makes damn sure he gets it.

Summary
Eddie survived the Upside Down, but is still a murder suspect. He needs to heal and come to terms with his survival.
Who is the best person to help him with that? Steve Harrington, of course.
*
“So, you’re looking after me for something to do?” Eddie soured. He shouldn’t have asked. It was too much to ask for Steve to actually-
“I’m looking after you because I care about you.” Steve interrupted his train of thought, borderline yelling. Eddie stared at him with wide eyes, “Is that so hard to believe? That I actually like you, Eddie? That I want you to be okay, and I want to be the one to make sure that you are?”

Summary
Steve Harrington nursed Eddie back to health, kept him warm and well-fed, and quite literally led a quest into Hell to give him his real body back. Which is great. It’s fucking fantastic. Definitely did not make Eddie fall a little bit head-over-heels in love with the guy.
At least, that’s what he kept telling himself at first, because Steve is just a really good guy with a tendency to act like an overbearing mother and it absolutely, undoubtedly, one-thousand-percent did not mean anything.
But then the dust settled, and Steve had still looked Eddie in the eye and asked him to stay.
And then—!
Then Steve had kissed him.
Eddie desperately wants to know what it all means.
Eddie Munson is alive and human again, and it's time to deal with the consequences. Unfortunately, that means figuring out how to defeat Vecna for good, discovering that he hasn't quite managed to get rid of the bat in him, and dealing with whatever the fuck it is that he's feeling for Steve Harrington. None of it is going to be easy.

Summary
Later, he’ll wonder why he even bothers to talk to the bat. It’s not as if it can understand him. But it’s comforting, he thinks, to hear someone assuring you that everything will be okay even when you’re moments away from death. Sometimes, hope is the only difference between holding on and letting go.
And the bat? It holds on.
After the ground opens up and Vecna disappears, the last thing that Steve Harrington needs is an injured bat on his doorstep. Apparently, that won't stop him from doing everything in his power to keep it alive. And if the bat reminds him of a certain someone, then that's just his mind playing tricks on him... right?
