    Summary

    “Sorry,” Steve says. “I’m sorry, I know this doesn’t make any sense to you, but can I just–”

    Eddie lets him approach, this time. Lets him reach out to touch, to curl his fingers in the hem of Eddie’s shirt.

    “Sorry, I know I probably sound crazy, I just––” he pulls it up, stares at Eddie’s side, and then lets out a hysterical little noise that sounds like a cross between a laugh and a sob.

    “You’re ok,” Steve says.

    His fingers are hot on Eddie’s skin, pressed light and shockingly reverent to the space between his hip and rib cage.

    “You’re ok,” he repeats. It sounds like he’s trying to convince himself.

    “Hey,” Eddie says. It comes out more breathless than he’d prefer but Steve fucking Harrington has him backed against a wall in a bathroom with his hands up Eddie’s shirt so he thinks a little lack of air is warranted. “Are you ok?”

    The fingers on his abdomen flex. "No,” Steve says. His eyes are wide and fathomless and the look on his face is terrible. “No, I’m not even remotely ok.”

    Summary

    Gareth remembers Will Byers the same way everyone in Hawkins does, as the kid who went missing for a week, was presumed dead, then officially dead, and later found alive. It’s the kind of story people hang onto, if only because things like that don’t happen around Hawkins. Or, at least, they didn’t use to.

    What he doesn’t remember, however, are Will’s eyes. The small mole hovering above his mouth, the dorky haircut. Gareth’s never actually met the boy before, so it makes sense to not know those things, but now that he has, it’s all too easy for the pieces of Will Byers to stick inside his brain. Too easy to recognize it as what it is: a crush.

    Oh, Eddie’s going to love this.

    Summary

    It'd been about two months since they had tried and failed to defeat Vecna. Two months since Hawkins split open. Two months since Max was sent into the hospital with multiple broken bones and irreparable damage to her sight. Two months since Dustin's sprained ankle. Two months since…

    Since losing Eddie Munson.

    -

    Or the fic where Eddie comes back from the Upside Down, not only alive and completely unscathed, but donning a new look as well.

    Title from "Eat Me Alive" by Judas Priest.
