Hi there!

How are you all doing? I just wanted to let you know that I'm almost done with the new chapter of 'Under the Spotlight', so we're getting an update this weekend.

I hope to see you all there. :)

Next One, I Land

AO3 | for @sidekick-hero 's 3,333 follower celebration | rating: t | wc: 333 | cw: none | tags: season 3; scoops ahoy; robin is a menace; steve is both bad and good at flirting; eddie is a flirt; fluff and flirting

Can you burn dry erase boards? Steve’s never wanted to burn anything in his life as much as that damn board. He knows Robin would still find a way to track his failures, probably on the back of a napkin dispenser or some shit.

He's determined not to let her increase the visual of his failed dating life. Not again.

“Next one, I land. Just wait.”

“Sure, dingus.” Robin smirks, propped on the half-wall behind the counter.

“You’ll see.”

Someone clears their throat, prompting Steve to turn back toward the counter.

“Hey there, sailor.” Eddie leans across the counter on his elbows, head propped in his hand. “You know, you’ve been running through my mind all day, sweetheart.”  He grins devilishly, eyes glittering under the harsh fluorescents. “Those pretty little legs must be tired.”

Robin cackles. He can hear the distinct pop! of the dry erase marker being uncapped – can practically see her tallying up another mark in the “You Suck” column. 

Steve looks Eddie over. Eddie’s not bad looking. He’s, honestly, kind of hot, in like a grunge, wild kind of way. Steve licks his lips, admires Eddie’s own plush ones jutting out, just begging to be kissed.

Yeah, Steve can work with this.

Steve smirks, presses his hip against the counter as he leans forward. “As a matter of fact, I’m exhausted. Think I could rest my head on your pretty little chest for a while, baby?” He reaches out, twirls a strand of Eddie’s hair, and tugs slightly.

“Wh– uh, I – the fuck?” Eddie’s eyes widen. “Did you just–”

“Yeah, I just.” Steve leans in, his lips against Eddie’s ear. “The real question is, are you all bark, or do you got some bite to you, Munson?”

He leans back, presses a chaste kiss to Eddie’s reddening cheek.

“Taking my break, Robin.”

All Steve hears after that is the dry erase marker clattering against the linoleum and Eddie’s sputtering breaths as Steve drags him into the break room.

second scene from a nonexistent fic

[allsteddie]

Steve and Eddie, both in their 30s, begging Robin to take their kids (ages 7, 6 and 4) for a day out because they really need time for themselves.

Robin accepts because she loves her nieces and nephew more than anything, and because this means Eddie and Steve are going to owe her a big, big favor.

They don't care. They just want their alone time. They pack their kids' bags, get them ready and kiss them goodbye when Robin comes to pick them up.

When Robin's car is out of view, Steve and Eddie go back inside and straight to their bedroom. They don't even waste time changing, they just close the blinds, crawl into bed and sleep for six full hours. Best day ever.

[allsteddie]

Eddie is the worst driver, but Steve is the most likely to lose his cool when driving.

He gets so freaking mad when the car in front of him is too slow, or when someone doesn't indicate they are about to take a turn. There was this one time when the car in front of them braked so suddenly that Steve almost didn't have time to brake too. Eddie had never seen his boyfriend curse so much in his life.

[allsteddie]

Oh, they totally do. There are some nasty fights because Eddie is stubborn and won't accept Steve's money and this frustrates Steve sometimes, but they make it work.

Eddie eventually gets a job teaching music to kids and stops with the bartending and Steve still has his modeling gigs. They get married four years into their relationship and adopt their first kid three years later. Steve then decides to retire so he can focus on his family; he's already made enough money with all the modeling for that and Eddie's income is not bad either so they are more than fine financially speaking.

They adopt three kids in total, two girls and a boy, and they have a very good life. 😊

Model!Steve AU, where Steve is a super famous model who has hundreds of people trying to win his affections and, yet, he never dates anyone.

Steve’s just so tired of all this; the empty flattery, the senseless idealization of him. Because these people don’t really wanna be with him, they just want to get into Steve Harrington’s pants so they can brag about it later. They want his name and his fame, not him.

Then he meets Eddie, a struggling musician trying to make ends meet by helping his uncle out at work. Wayne’s been Steve’s gardener for years, one of the few people in Steve’s life that actually treats him like a human being and not an object to be explored.

They meet after Wayne hurts his back in a stupid accident at home and can’t do most of his work for a while. And to Steve’s surprise, they just click.

Eddie is funny, smart and doesn’t give a shit about Steve’s fame. He’s always rambling about the absurdity of the world Steve lives in; people trying to use others to get money and recognition, the unrealistic beauty standards the industry sets and how this affects young girls and boys in the worst ways. Eddie has a lot of opinions about a lot of things and Steve loves hearing about them. It’s such a change from all the fake smiles and compliments he gets all the time. Steve’s smitten.

After three weeks covering for his uncle, Wayne gets better and Eddie has no more reason to tag along. On his last day, Steve asks him out but Eddie rejects him.

“Sorry, man, it’s been fun knowing you and all, but I’m not gonna be your dirty little secret,” Eddie says with an apologetic smile before leaving.

And this confuses Steve to no end because he never intended for Eddie to be his dirty little secret? Steve wants to date him, know him better, maybe build a relationship with him. What did he do that made Eddie believe he was just looking for a fuck buddy?

“You’re one of the most famous models in this country and my nephew can barely pay his bills with the money he gets from his gigs and his bartender job,” Wayne tells him when Steve expresses his confusion. “Do you really think he would believe you’re interested in him?”

“Then I’ll make him believe me.”

That’s how Steve finds himself going almost every week to the bar Eddie works and plays with his band.

“What the hell are you doing here?” Eddie asks the first time he sees Steve in the Hideout.

“I wanted to see you.”

“Yeah, right.”

Week after week, Steve shows up at the bar and stays until he can catch at least a few minutes of conversation with Eddie. Sometimes he stays to watch the show, but sometimes he has to leave early because of work. Eddie entertains him, but Steve can see he’s still not buying Steve’s intentions.

One night, Steve shows up and doesn’t see Eddie anywhere. He waits for a while but Eddie never shows up. When Steve asks the bartender, they inform him that Eddie called in sick that night.

That’s all the excuse Steve needs to drive all the way to the Munsons’ house, making a quick stop to buy every single medicine he can think of, and knock on their door. It’s Wayne who opens the door and he doesn’t even ask what Steve is doing there; he just steps back and lets Steve in.

“He’s in his room. Second door to the right,” Wayne tells him.

Eddie has the flu, Steve finds out. He’s got a fever, and his body is achy and his nose is so stuffy he can’t breathe properly. Eddie is so out of it because of the fever he barely registers Steve’s presence when he comes in.

Steve spends the whole night there, making sure Eddie’s temperature doesn’t rise too much and that he has enough blankets and drinks enough water to stay hydrated. When morning comes, Eddie feels much better and almost has a heart attack when he sees Steve passed out on the armchair beside his bed.

After he wakes up, Steve asks Eddie out again and this time Eddie finally says yes. They have to postpone their first date, though, because Steve falls sick with the flu the very next day. But it’s okay, Eddie takes good care of him.

kiss me baby😘❤️

STEVE HARRINGTON & EDDIE MUNSON STRANGER THINGS 4.08 "Papa"

[allsteddie]

Some Steddie doodles from a while back 😳

[allsteddie]

thinking about the group moving out of hawkins to escape all the trauma and only keeping vaguely in contact. not everyone is able to meet up all at once, a lot of clashes in schedules and ability to travel so much.

by the time steve and eddie are able to reunite, their schedules finally at long last aligning, steve is starting to get greys a little early. and something about the idea of silver fox steve makes eddie lose his mind.

and somehow, he's got a lot of free time when steve does. and maybe he moves to the same state- not close enough to regularly see each other, but it's easier. and maybe steve is subtly encouraging it, because he hadn't realised how much he'd been missing eddie.

[allsteddie]

Steve loses his hearing, tells no one, and has been ‘faking it until he makes it’ ever since.

He’s kinda hoping that he’ll wake up a lip reading expert one day but it hasn’t happened yet, but it’s fine.

Most of his friends talk at him instead of with him, so it’s okay if he misses some of the finer details. He doesn’t think he’s missing much until -

“Dating?” He asks. “You’re dating someone? Who?”

Eddie pauses and looks at him. His mouth moves to say, “You.”

“Me?”

“I asked you out a month ago,” Eddie says. “You said ‘sounds great.’”

“Oh,” Steve says, realization dawning slowly. “Yeahh, that’s what I say when I can’t figure out what you said.”

Eddie gives him a look like he’s bugging out, “What do you mean? I said it to your face.”

“Well, yeah,” Steve nods. “Lip-reading isn’t like, a science. It’s hard sometimes.”

“Why are you reading my lips?!”

“Because I’m deaf!”

“You’re deaf???” Eddie asks. He looks exasperated. “Since when.”

“Since before I had a boyfriend,” Steve replies, nudging him. “Sorry. I didn’t really tell anyone about it. I still have a boyfriend, right?”

“Yeah. Of course,” Eddie says and then curls his hand into a mimic of a telephone. He holds it to his ear before bringing his hands together into a gesture of a bird.

Steve frowns, “Don’t call Robin.”

Eddie looks directly at him and mouths, “I’m calling Robin.”

[allsteddie]

A sweet little commission for @pyro-the-dragon, or: ugh, Eddie Munson's boyfriend interrupts the campaign AGAIN for

[allsteddie]

Eddie Munson, probably.

Sorry I said yippee when I heard you unbuckling your belt do you still think Im hot?

[allsteddie]

Robin and Eddie are mid rant about how neither of them have been kissed and being gay in small town America is hard when Steve interrupts them like —

Steve: “uh, no, don’t blame being gay for your lack of action. You’ve never been kissed because you both don’t have any type of game.”

Eddie: “it’s not like there’s a wealth of people we can kiss here steve. It’s Hawkins.”

Steve: ive made out with like three different guys in this town since last summer.

Robin and Eddie: “you. What.”

Steve, flipping through a magazine: “it’s not because you’re gay. It’s because you’re nerds.”

[allsteddie]

Steve and Eddie being so clingy and touchy with each other that everybody thinks they are dating. But they are not. Steve's just touch-starved and Eddie just can't keep his hands to himself so, yeah.

On movie nights, they sit together and share a blanket; Steve usually ends up napping with his head resting on Eddie's shoulder or lap, as Eddie runs his hands through Steve's hair. When they're driving the kids around, they keep their pinkies, sometimes hands, linked over the console. They're always touching somehow, no matter what they are doing.

"You know you can tell me anything, right?" Robin says one day. Eddie had dropped by Family Video to chat and spent the whole time playing with Steve's fingers over the counter as he rambled away about his boss in the garage.

"Of course I know. Why?"

"Nothing. Just saying."

Six months later, Steve and Robin are drinking together at his house, watching some Mexican soap opera neither of them can quite understand, when Steve finally blurts.

"Eddie asked me out yesterday. We're going to Indy on Saturday."

Robin almost chokes on her beer. "What do you mean he asked you out yesterday? Haven't you two been dating for months?"

“No? We’re just friends. Hopefully not for long, though.”

“What the fuck??”

[allsteddie]

Robin: Eat the rich.

Eddie: I do, every night.

Steve, from across the room: He's damn good at it too.

Robin: Oh God.

[allsteddie]

Eddie throws a surprise party for Steve's birthday.

It's nothing fancy, but there's cake and Steve's favorite snacks, soda for the kids and beer for the older ones.

Robin and Dustin are on Steve-duty, so they make up some bullshit about this awesome movie they are dying to watch and Steve has to watch it with them. Steve goes because he can hardly say no to them on a good day, but when they gang up on him and give him those pleading looks? Impossible.

Meanwhile, Joyce and Karen are taking care of the food, Eddie, Nancy and Holly are decorating the Harrington's living room and Hopper and Jonathan are picking up the rest of the kids.

A couple of hours later, everything is ready and they're just waiting for Dustin and Robin to bring Steve home.

Eddie's never gonna forget Steve's face when he walked into the dark living room just for El to flick the lights on as everybody yelled 'SURPRIIISE!'. Steve just stood there, mouth open and eyes comically large as he took everything in.

Then he started crying.
