There’s been something sticking in Steve’s craw ever since they finally defeated the Upside Down.

Summary
Even a decade after relocating to another city, Steve still thinks about a guy he went to high school with.
---
What the hell does he do to his hair to get it like that? All… feathery, but not smooth. It kind of sucks, but it works for him. Him and nobody else. Steve wouldn't be caught dead with his hair looking fried.
Whatshisname sticks his tongue out to freak out the culty blond kid from the Tigers—John? John Carter?—and Steve watches the curve of it until it's back in his mouth. He knows what the tip of a tongue can do, he's got the experiences to back it up, and he wonders if this guy—seriously what's his fucking name?—has ever gone down on a woman or—
Or a guy.

Summary
Chrissy's not expecting to wake up in a hospital room after dying, and the recovery after that is miserable—she has to rebuild her life from the ground up. At least she has the shady government on her side, even if they're enforcing a total separation from her old identity.
There are a lot of questions left without answers though, and while she learns who she is now that her life isn't picked out for her, she tries finding them.
---
Maybe this is still death. She knows she died. The absolute fact of her death sits heavy in her gut, even though she thinks she can literally feel her body knitting itself back together, like all of the cells have tiny little needles, turning her bones and muscles into weird scarves.
That thought sends her back to sleep, and she can't tell if she hopes she wakes up again or not. She doesn't mind the fuzziness of everything around her, since it means she can carefully slip away without trouble.

Summary
Robin gets curious about Steve and Eddie—specifically, how Steve can get tied up like that after Starcourt? And what would it do to her if she tried it?
---
"Do you always... Is it always a sex thing? Like the sky is always blue under the clouds even when it looks grey, and getting tied up for fun is always about sex? Or... or perhaps," Robin asks, making eye contact again, "is it like... you know, how you can share a bed with someone platonically and it's not a sex thing at all?"
"Nocturnal tumescence and all," Steve mutters under his breath, and if Eddie didn't have cords of nerves tangling up in his throat then he'd follow that thread.
But his sheep radar is registering off the charts—Robin's considering something big, and she's looking to him for answers.

Summary
Eddie spins on his heel in the middle of the room, slowly taking in the space before he fixes Steve with an awkward, closed-mouth smile. Steve feels himself return it. Ringed fingers curl and straighten compulsively by Eddie's side as he tilts his head.
“And we’re sure there are no other rooms?”
Steve feels the smile slide off his face.
OR
In the aftermath of their final battle against Vecna, Hawkins is put under quarantine. Steve and Eddie bunk up.

Summary
“Sorry if you got a lot of shit about it. At school. From- you know.”
Eddie stares at him. “From… your basketball lackeys?”
“Sure. Yeah.”
Is this… is Harrington winding him up?
“Are you winding me up?”
“What? No. No!”
“Pardon my hesitance,” Eddie says, narrowing his eyes, “this is just- kind of unexpected. And by that, I mean- a bit of a mind fuck.”
Steve clears his throat, looks down at his shoes.
Eddie kind of dances from side to side, ducks down to recapture Steve's gaze. “And by that- I mean- cereal shopping with Steve ‘the hair’ Harrington while he apologises on behalf of high school jocks everywhere.”

Gareth's unintentional matchmaking skills lead Eddie to three new discoveries:

2. Steve Harrington is very fucking weird
3. Steve Harrington is dangerously easy to fall in love with- Language:

Summary
Hop said it’s a bad habit he’s gotten himself into, these night drives. Patrolling the town when everyone’s asleep, nobody to ask the question of why Steve Harrington drives circles through Hawkins past midnight every night.
It’s nearing one a.m. and Steve sighs, because—shit. There's a van on the side of the road that wasn't there on his last lap.
He can’t drive off now. He’s already stopped. Already committed, so Steve swings his keys around his finger and sighs again. Opens the car door.
He comes to a stop a few paces away from the van. Raises his voice slightly when he says, “Hello?”
“Fucking—what, hello? What?” comes a voice from the other side of the van. “Who—jesus, if I’m about to get murdered, I swear to—wait. Harrington? Steve Harrington?”
—
Or; Steve patrols the streets of Hawkins every night, looking for monsters. One night, he finds Eddie.

Summary
"Want a ride somewhere?"
"No," Carol says immediately. He ignores the roll of her eyes and looks out into the dark street.
"I hear serial killers are most active at this hour."
"Explains why you're out here."
Eddie, with half a tank of gas and nowhere to go, just shrugs. He waits, still expecting her to say no, but then she surprises him for the second time that night: she climbs into his van.
(Eddie, Carol, and twenty four hours)
