ISO: completed AO3 Steddie fic; read sometime in June-July 2025; The scene that stands out is Eddie basically breaking up with Steve by telling him that they ‘shouldn’t do this anymore’ (or similar) while they are in Steve’s house (bedroom or bathroom?); probably a longer multichapter fic; maybe a canon rewrite OR a time travel fic where Steve and Eddie get together earlier, & Steve knows about the Upside Down but Eddie doesn’t (yet), which makes it seem like Steve is hiding things from him - tx

OKAY TW for sa !!!!

I know this fic was incomplete because I remember being sad that the author didn’t do another chapter, since it only had one. I know it was building up to steddie because I was just scrolling through the steddie tag on ao3. Had the kids all in Hawkins.

ANYWHO is trying to find this fic about Steve getting assaulted when he was younger, the fic talked about hopper doing the math in his head, and Steve would be 16 at the time of the assault. It was a kid named Olivia im pretty sure. She was dropped on his doorstep and his parents freaked out. Kicked him out the house without his car keys. He went to Joyce and hoppers house since he didn’t know where else to go. I remember will and el lived there because Johnathan said something about them both being happy if Steve stayed for a little bit. last thing about it I remember is that Steve was supposed to meet up with the rest of the fruity four + Johnathan. But then everything happened. Johnathan told them all what happened and Eddie was the first one to get up and be like “what are we still doing here??”

SORRY IF THIS IS HARD TO FIND. TRIED TO INCLUDE EVERYTHING I REMEMBER ABOUT IT!!

Hello!! I was searching for a fic but the only thing I remember was Eddie going to Family video I think to pick up Steve, Robin and Steve were having some type of conversation about his feelings for Eddie and Eddie said something like “I hate to interrupt but you guys do know that this store isn’t big enough to have a private conversation?”

So sorry I remember so little😭😭

I can't remember if it was ABO or not, but I remember Steve and Robin ran a Cafe? Coffee shop? And Eddie shows up, flirts, gets close with Steve only for Steve to realize Eddie is a PI hired by his parents to find him but by then Eddie had already changed his mind about giving up Steve's hiding spot?

I hope someone can find this or also remembers this? It was so good.

hi!! looking for a fic and i don’t remember if it’s a one shot or multi chapter but i think it’s bdsm there’s a scene where stave punishes eddie with the silent treatment bc he disobeyed and he’s like “if you don’t listen to me then i don’t listen to you” and pretends eddie doesn’t exist and eddie breaks down and begs him to talk to him

I remember the story I'm looking for was on ao3 but the only plot/story related thing I remember aside from it being Steddie is that El, Will and I think Max all get matching Tattoos. I don't remember if Eddie does them or if he recommends a different artist.

Looking for a chaptered fic on AO3. I remember that Steve's parents came home unexpectedly one morning when Eddie had slept over. Steve panicked and ran out of the room to greet them, and Eddie assumed that he was ashamed and so left out the window. When they confront each other, it turns out Steve had planned to bring Eddie down to introduce him to his parents and was hurt when Eddie left.

Can't recall if this was on Ao3 or Tumblr, but El and Steve go with a team of agents to rescue more lab kids - twin girls, twin boys, and a baby, I think - and Steve decides to keep them. The girls had started calling Steve 'Mama', one of the boys had had a seizure, and the kids had decided on their names, and that was about as far as was updated last I read it. I think it was at least pre-steddie, but Steve and the kids were at the Munson trailer while they figured things out.

Sorry if this isn't much to go on.

BEGGING FOR YOUR HELP

Okay, so, I originally found it on tumblr but started reading it on ao3. I found it 7/11/25 and here's what I remember:

- 9ish chapters

- Alpha!Steve x Omega!Eddie

- Rich, single dad Steve with two toddlers (Ben and Charlotte i think) and i think his ex was Tommy

- Eddie had a late presentation heat and it fucked up his life. Lost his job as a mechanic, got evicted, and was living in his van for a bit

- Robin hired eddie as the nanny

- Both steve and eddie had a history of being told their scents were bad but loved the others'

I only got like half way through, but I hope this is enough. I will be forever grateful 🙏

Hey! I was just reading a fic that I had found here on tumblr when my phone died and I didn’t catch the title, so I came to you guys. 😅

It was a 2 chapter fic about Steve and Robin meeting Eddie when he goes to the movies on the Fourth of July and then gets caught up in the upside down stuff. He and Steve get close and fool around and then Steve tries to ask him out and they drift apart.

I vividly remember the summary having the line “do you see me complaining because there’s a pretty boy in my trailer?” In it.

The fic is on A03 and the link was posted here on tumblr. Thank you so much for the help

I am looking for a steddie fic and I am having NO luck. all I can remember is that the first chapter (I believe) included Steve going out on a walk at night and ending up at a park and sitting on a swing set. Eddie ends up there and they talk and I think smoke 🍃 and Eddie takes him home. I wanna say they also talk about the s3 mall? it's an AU where they are friends earlier in the timeline. please help if this rings any bells!!

hello :) hoping u can help. I read this fic on ao3 like 2-3 years ago maybe and it’s been stuck in my head. I’ll try to give as many details.

Steve takes the kids to the arcade and Eddie happens to work there. This is an au so Steve and Eddie don’t know eachother. Eddie and Steve get to talking, and this part I’m not 100% sure of, but I’m pretty sure a girl shows up and Steve flirts with her. He does this thing with his eyes or with his hair or something but it’s a signature flirty move. Dustin sees and asks Steve what he just did and Steve calls it “The zhuzh” Anyways Steve and Eddie become friends and they often see eachother when dropping the kids off with the other. One day Dustin sees Steve and Eddie talking and after Eddie leaves, Dustin asks Steve why he did The Zhuzh on Eddie and Steve has a freak out about it and realizes he’s been flirting the whole time. then they get together. Sorry I know that’s a lot but I’ve searched for it so many times and it never comes up under arcade on ao3 and idk what else to do lol. Thank you !! Hope someone can help!!

A fic on AO3 where Eddie goes to visit Robin and Steve at Family Video frequently. He has a crush on him and he wants to confess because he knows Steve will be kinda and he wants to be able to ask a boy out in the open once. He is a big nervous mess but Steve ends up saying yes. I believe it was written this year.
