    Summary

    For Buck realizing he's Bisexual in his 30s sucks. Realizing he's bi and hopelessly attracted to his straight single dad best friend? Reeaally sucks.

    Buck has some self reflection to do and some hard realizations to face. He's also trying to get better at taking care of himself. He's not great at it.

    *This fic will oscillate WILDLY between fluff, angst, smut and back again. Be warned!

    Summary

    “She truly is your daughter, Alex,” Henry sighs, defeated.

    “Fuck off, sweetheart,” he laughs, a soundbite of the sun. Henry forces himself not to physically react, the term of endearment sweet and menacingly familiar coming from Alex’s lips. It’s been years. “You know they’re useful.”

    “Ah yes, eyelashes, truly a formidable instrument in managing international relations.”

    Alex grins, and Henry is too late to catch the slightest downward lilt on the corner of his mouth, “Worked on you once, didn’t it?”

    Oh, did that ache.

     

    (Much had happened since the time Henry had told Alex to leave. Alex had passed the bar, gotten married, had the most beautiful daughter. And Henry, well. He stayed right where he was.)

    Summary

    “God, I love you so damned much that it hurts, Eddie. But, I can’t. I can’t stay here, I can’t be in this stupid fucking town. I have to,” He heaved out a shaking breath, his hand clutching the top of his car door so hard that his knuckles were white. “If I don’t leave now, I’m going to be stuck here for the rest of my life. I was already halfway down that path, maybe this is what I needed to get my shit together and get the fuck out.” 

     

    “Then let’s get outta here, Stevie. We can go anywhere you wanna go.” 

     

    “Anywhere?” He croaked out in response, his eyes fluttering open to see what he could of Eddie’s face with their close proximity.

     

    “I’d follow you anywhere, Steve Harrington.”

     

    In the summer of 1987, Steve's father kicked him out of the house in the pouring rain.
    The next year of his life proved to be everything he had ever wanted and so much more.

    Summary

    It’s the spinning that does it. Eddie couldn’t look away if someone paid him. Every single time it happens, he just stops what he’s doing and stares. Drooling.

    Before, it was just kitchen utensils or the baseball bat. Now...now it’s at band practice every day.

    As it turns out, Steve can actually keep rhythm really well and while he can’t read music to save his ass, he understands beats and notes like a natural. The problem is- the problem is, that he keeps spinning those fucking drumsticks and Eddie’s gonna jizz in his goddamn jeans one of these days.

    OR - Steve becomes the drummer for Corroded Coffin and Eddie can't handle his thirst
