    Summary

    It's 1985 and in the quiet months before Hawkins starts to burn again, Mary-Elizabeth MacKinley is already unraveling. She's graduating this year. Vinyl Frontier is relocating. Eddie’s leaving for Indianapolis. Her mom is seeing someone new. Babysitting Dustin is about to be a thing of the past. And the future—whatever that even means for a girl like her—is coming fast. To make things more confusing, somewhere in the middle of it all, Steve Harrington keeps showing up with dumb jokes, soft eyes, and a patience she doesn’t know what to do with.

    Then Starcourt Mall opens. Neon lights, minimum wage, and new friendships start pulling everyone back together. But beneath the food court and escalators, something ugly is waking up. Something that makes all the other battles they've fought look harmless. Something that makes the change of growing up feel like the least of Mac's problems.

    ***Please read my Season 1 & 2 rewrites 'Distorted Paths' and 'Residual Shadows' first to get the full story!***

    THIS IS SET DURING SEASON THREE! EACH SEASON WILL HAVE A SEPERATE FIC IN THIS SERIES! <3

    Summary

    Lisa Henderson didn't like Steve Harrington. Not at all.

    They were best friends as kids and now they didn't talk, and Lisa was content in forgetting about his existence. That was until he started dating her best friend, Nancy Wheeler. Trying to adapt to his unwelcome return into her life, as well as trying to stay out of whatever her brother Dustin and his friends were secretly up to was no easy feat, especially when literal monsters were thrown into the mix.

    Lisa Henderson didn't like Steve Harrington, but she also couldn't seem to get rid of him.

    She'd soon come to realise that maybe, just maybe, he wasn't actually the worst thing in the world.

    Summary

    “What do you mean?” Steve asked in confusion. His hands felt wet from the condensation of his bottle and he quickly wiped his hands on his jeans.
    Robin was bouncing happily beside him, oblivious to his discomfort.

    “Oh, he wears a disguise like – you can't really see his face. But I feel like people are really into the whole doomy gloomy metal Phantom Of The Opera thing. They are not that big yet but he has about twenty thousand followers in his own Instagram. Horny girls in the comments included. It was kind of crazy to be honest when I checked it a while ago. But I guess if they ever get super famous at least he'll have his privacy. It's actually kind of clever now that I think of it.”

    ________
    Steve and the singer of a band Robin dragged him to have an encounter behind the bar after the concert. The strange yet fascinating man is masked, even on his social media. No one really knows his face. What is he hiding underneath and why ? And why can't Steve get the wild curls and that voice out of his head.

    Maybe their paths cross again.
    And maybe it's time Eddie Munson finally stopped hiding from the world so much.

    Summary

    Eddie Munson never thought his half-scribbled cocktail menus and doodles of neon-lit bars would amount to anything more than pipe-dreams shoved in the back of his closet. Then Steve Harrington with his sharp suits and sharper smile comes into his life with an offer Eddie can't refuse.

    There's just one problem.

    Eddie knows more about Steve than he could ever let on with the two of them spending endless hours speaking to each other anonymously on a gay hookup app.

    OR: Steve wants to be Eddie's business partner to help him bring his dream restaurant to life and Eddie has to grapple with the web of lies he's created for himself by not telling Steve it's actually him he's speaking to on Grindr

    Summary

    “Wake me up before you go, go!” he sings loudly. “Don’t leave me hanging on like a yo-yo!”
    He slides along his wooden floor in his socks like a movie scene, continuing to sing, when a voice breaks the silence.
    “In the week that I was gone, I kind of hoped your music taste had improved, but I guess not, Harrington.”

     

    Eddie Munson is dead.
    Or so Steve thought.

    Summary

    The beginning of senior year brings more changes with it than Eliza could have ever expected. Outside the move of the Byers family to California, the deaths during the mall fire haunting the town and lingering trauma, high school still continues to be just as challenging and nothing is as it was before. Somehow developing a genuine friendship with Robin while ignoring her feelings, trying to keep the Party from falling apart and figuring out the perfect college to go to are just the tip of the iceberg.

    Or an interlude between S3 and S4 in which Eliza and Steve need to deal with the impending future and what that means for their friendship while trying to get over their crushes (with varying success).

    Summary

    Eddie really allows himself to drink in the sight before him. Steve is wearing a pair of jean shorts and an obnoxious Hawaiian shirt over an ABBA tshirt. He had glasses he was constantly readjusting and a gold chain he was fidgeting with. The whole thing was cute. Very much Eddie’s type. The broad shoulders and the warm hazel eyes and the swoopy hair, the megawatt smile? That didn’t hurt either.

    “Of course no embarrassment would truly be complete without the baby pictures, but unfortunately those are all at home.” Steve sighs, he packs all of Eddie’s spoil into a bag. Far more than he remembers bringing up actually.

    Max seemed to agree with Steve.

    “You should invite him to movie night Steve. You can embarrass Henderson in stereo. Break out the prom video. Oo, the middle school theatre phase videos.” she had an evil gleam in her eye as she looked between the two.

    Steve sputters, “I mean, if you’re.. it would be Friday? It’s nothing special, we order food, watch a couple movies, smoke a j on the stoop. It’s our end of the week revelry.” He does jazz hands. Eddie kinda wants to bite him.

    He smiles, “I could get into some revelry.”

    Summary

    “GET THE FUCK OFF ME!”

    Eddie frowned and his head swivelled around when he heard the shout. Whoever that was, they didn’t sound happy.

    He took a drag of his cigarette, before dropping it to the ground, scrubbing it with his foot, and started to move. Leaving behind the building’s shadow as he made his way further out into the parking lot, shifting between the parked cars of the Hideout as he followed the sound of angry voices.

    He paused as he came around the side of a car, his surprise at the scene in front of him making him freeze, Steve Harrington was possibly the last person he expected to see in the Hideout’s parking lot at 11pm.

    —————————————————————
    When Eddie finds omega Steve in the parking lot of the Hideout with alpha’s Billy Hargrove and Tommy Hagen, he didn’t realise just how much his world would change.

    Or that it would be the start of the rest of his life.

    Summary

    Eddie Munson doesn't really know Molly Henderson, other than the fact that she's the older sister of Dustin Henderson. They'd never really spoken, but he'd always noticed her around school. He honestly never thought he'd have a reason to talk to her until he finds her one night sitting at the picnic table he conducted his business at draped in his denim battle vest.

    That night would prove to throw him into one of the most unlikely friendships as he tries to help Molly cope after a traumatic event.

    *The rape is in no way explicit or even described. It is alluded to through short bursts of memories on Molly's part. I am also not romanticizing this rape in the slightest. This is going to be raw and rough mentally. Content and trigger warnings will be at the beginning of each chapter. Please take care of yourselves.*

    Summary

    November 20th 1984, Hawkins, Indiana.

    After saving Hawkins, and possibly the world, again, all Steve wants is a semi-normal Thanksgiving. That, however, doesn't seem to be in the books. Two days before the holiday, the news at eight plays a rather interesting headline that has Steve holding his breath and clambering for the phone as quickly as possible.

    Or, the one where The Walking Dead and Stranger Things fuse.

    Summary

    Eddie Munson and Maxine Mayfield died on the same day, the same hour, exactly one year ago. Everyone Steve loves have either left or are leaving Hawkins, all except him. Dustin hates him now. Which is okay, because Steve does too.

    He's not the only one who wishes he had died instead.

    But when he gets his wish in an accident, it doesn't seem to stick.

    Instead: it gives him a second chance.

    Because here Eddie is, eyes wide and angry with a bottle to Steve's neck. One year in the past, completely alive.
