“C’mon Ed’s, there’s gotta be someone here that catches your eye.”

Nancy had dragged her best friend all the way to Indy with the promise of finding him a suitable match- much to Eddie’s dismay. He didn’t want to find a match. He knows he’s not exactly the type of guy people are interested in, even at the gay bar they’re currently drinking at.

What’s worse is the thought of actually finding someone that he’s interested in here just to go back to Hawkins once the weekend is over and wallow in his own self-pity.

“Nope, no one,” he replies dryly before downing the rest of his beer.

“Hmph,” she lets out an irritated noise before raising her glass to her lips, peaking over the top to scope out the crowd. “What about him?” She juts her chin out.

“Who are you… him? Are you serious?” He scowls when his eyes land on the man she’s looking at. He’s practically a ken doll in real life with slicked-back blonde hair and icy blue eyes that are cutting through him from across the bar.

“What? Not into the pretty boy type?” She raises a brow at him and continues her search.

“Obviously not! What about me says that’s my-”he pauses mid-sentence, jaw slacked as he looks past the ken doll and sees the most beautiful man he’s ever laid eyes on.

“What were you saying about that not being your type?” She smirks.

“What? I- oh, shut up!” He groans, not taking his eyes off the brunette on the dance floor.

“Wait, he looks familiar. Eddie, is that-“

“Steve Harrington?!” His eyes widen and his heart drops.

It’s been nearly a decade since graduation but the constellation of moles on his neck and body- Jesus H. Christ, that crop top is doing things to him- and those honeyed brown eyes are all he needs to confirm it’s him, king Steve. But what the hell is he doing here?

“He’s certainly caught your eye,” Nancy snorts from beside him, nudging him up off his seat.

“What the hell are you doing?” He nearly shrieks as she pushes him in the direction of the dance floor.

“What do you think I’m doing? Go talk to him!”

“I can’t just go talk to Steve Harrington, Nance. He’s probably not even gay! He’s gotta be here with someone else playing as their wingman,” he scours the mess of sweaty bodies, searching for anyone else he may know.

“Ha! See? Buckleys here as well! He must be with her,” he smiles proudly but it drops quickly when he feels himself still being ushered away.

“Just go Ed, you don’t have to shove your tongue down his throat, just make conversation,” she urges him, pleading at him with her eyes to give it a chance. To let someone in.

“Fine, whatever. I won’t say I told you so when I’m back here in two minutes with a bruised eye and an even more bruised ego,” he rolls his eyes and shuffles his way towards the crowd, twisting and turning his way around people until he’s stood right in front of the jock himself.

Eddie had always hated Steve in high school- at least that’s what he told himself to hide the embarrassingly huge crush he had on him growing up.

Towards the end of his final senior year, they ran in very similar circles yet hardly interacted face to face. He hated the way the kids absolutely raved about him and his jealousy got in the way of ever giving him a fair chance even when they ended up at the same events as one another. There had been birthdays, graduations, Joyce and hoppers wedding- and though they’d be in close proximity they hardly acknowledged each other.

Eventually, he had heard that he and Robin moved to Indie and had accepted the fact that they would never get the chance to grow their relationship past anything more than reluctant acquaintances.

Standing in front of him now he’s seeing a much different side of Steve. The Steve he knew was a ladies man- a polo-wearing jock who was the captain of the swim team and floated through school without as much as a turned-up nose in his direction while Eddie was the Satan worshipping freak, a name given to him by his lovely classmates.

The Steve standing in front of him now was a completely different person. He’s wearing denim shorts and a cropped top, remnants of glitter scattered across his cheeks like kisses. Eddie has to stop himself from chuckling at the idea of Robin pinning Steve down to apply it, and… eyeliner?!

Eddie feels like he’s about to pass away on the spot and he forgets how to breathe.

“Hello?”

Oh. Oh shit. Right. He’s supposed to be saying something right now, not gawking at him.

“Um, hi?” It comes out like a question and he wants to slap a hand against his forehead. Why did he let Nancy drag him into this situation?

Before he can come up with anything to say Steve’s leaning in oh so close with a smirk on his face, brushing a loose strand of hair behind Eddie’s ear before whispering into it, “do you come here often? I haven’t seen you here before and I’d definitely remember you.”

Eddie nearly scoffs at that because clearly, Steve isn’t remembering him.

“It’s my first time, big boy,” he responds swiftly, a sideways grin painted on his face.

There’s a flash of something in Steve’s eyes when the nickname leaves his lips and Eddie is beginning to realize that Steve may not be as straight as he previously assumed. And well… he doesn’t know what to do with that information.

“What’s your name, handsome?” Steve purrs while twirling one of Eddie’s loose curls around his finger.

“Eddie,” he deadpans, waiting to see if anything clicks for Steve.

It does.

Steve freezes, dropping Eddie’s curl before taking a step back and looking him up and down.

“Eddie,” Steve echoes, big doe eyes widening at the realization.

Eddie looks different now but he’s still the same Eddie he crushed on in the eighties. His hair is cut slightly shorter now and is pulled up into a wild bun with loose curls flying free around his face. His style has toned down since high school but it’s still so Eddie.

He’s still got his dark ripped jeans but his battle vest is traded in for a black shirt with the sleeves cut off, the arm holes dipping low enough to show off the new tattoos covering his ribs. He wants to reach out and touch them.

“So you do remember me, Harrington!” Eddie teases, setting Steve on fire.

“I-yes, of course I do Eddie. I’m sorry I didn’t recognize you at first… I think I’ve had too many of those fruity cocktails,” he admits.

“I suppose I’ll forgive you just this once,” Eddie chides, “if you’ll buy my next drink.”

“That I can do,” Steve smiles and oh… oh god his smile. Was it always this breathtaking?

The pair head back to the bar where they find Robin and Nancy deep in conversation, both of them leaning in close and giggling way too much for this to be a casual chat so they sneak past them and don’t interrupt.

Steve orders them both a colourful drink with a little umbrella sticking out of it, something Eddie would never have ordered for himself but he’s delightfully surprised when he takes a sip of the fruity concoction.

“What brings you to Indy?” Steve questions with a tilt of his head.

“Uhh,” he rubs the back of his head nervously. “Honestly, Nance dragged me out here to try to meet some guys. Hawkins isn’t exactly the best place to meet other gay men, y’know?”

“Oh I definitely know,” Steve nods and Eddie feels a weight lift off his chest at the response. “Part of the reason Rob and I moved out here was to be apart of a better community. Although it was hard to leave the kids, Joyce, hop… you.”

“Me?” Eddie’s eyes widen and he jolts back a bit as if he’s been electrocuted. “We weren’t… I mean, we were never close…”

“Yeah but I still had a big stupid crush on you,” Steve admits out loud, so causally that Eddie thinks he must have misheard him until he looks up and sees the nervous look on Steve's face as he awaits some sort of response.

“I… you had a crush on me?” He points between them for emphasis as he speaks.

“Mhm, a giant one. You were kinda my bi-awakening dude,” Steve laughs nervously, hiding his blush behind his drink.

Eddie short circuits.

He can’t believe what he’s hearing but Steve sounds so genuine he has no choice but to believe every word he says.

Had he been blind? Were there signs of Steve’s feelings that he hadn’t noticed? He thinks back to the late summer barbecues in the Hoppers back yard, how Steve always seemed to sit next to him at the picnic tables even when there were other places to sit. How Steve was always quick to offer up his house for the D&D campaigns when he didn’t have to, how he’d driven him back and forth to work for a week straight in 1987 when his van broke down even though the two of them had never spent time alone before that.

He always assumed the little things steve did was because of the kids, because of Dustin. That he was trying to be kind to Eddie because the party cared about them both and he wanted harmony within the group.

Looking back he feels like an idiot.

“Well, between you and me,” Eddie leans in close and Steve leans into it. “You were my gay awakening back in like, middle school man.”

“Middle school?” Steve pulls away with wide eyes.

“Mhm,” Eddie nods, finishing off the rest of his drink to get some liquid courage before continuing. “Eight grade, swim team,” Eddie whistles, leaning back in his seat. “Let’s just say I had no interest in swimming.”

Steve lets out a bark of laughter, cheeks hurting from smiling so wide.

“So why didn’t you talk to me?”

“Are you kidding? I don’t think eighth-grade Harrington would have taken well to the freak having a crush on him.”

Steve winces and Eddie immediately regrets what he said, albeit it is the truth.

“Yeah, you’re right,” he nods slowly. “I’m sorry. I was an asshole back then.”

“You were a kid,” Eddie shrugs. “Clearly you’ve changed. I should have noticed that you were different all those years ago… before you moved away.” But I didn’t want to, he wants to add but doesn’t dare say it aloud.

“Still-“

“Ah ah! Nope, it’s in the past,” he cuts him off before Steve has the chance to spiral. “But now that we’re here, I’d like to get to know the real you more,” he hope he doesn’t sound too forward or worse, desperate.

“I’d like to get the real you as well,” Steve blushes back and Eddie feels as though he might combust. “Why don’t we get out of here? Go somewhere quieter?”

“I’d love to,” Eddie replies, looking down at his lap to hide the heat raising in his own cheeks.

Steve extends his hand to help Eddie down from the tall stool and they make their way out of the bar, giggling and leaning into each other's space, hopeful and excited.

[sabbathbloodysabbeth]

I always forget that I shouldn’t give a shit about promoting something that I’m working my ass off on. That I should throw it in everybody’s face and glare as the yoke goes down there face 😡

Just kidding! Though I’m close to finishing up chapter two of ‘Bark At The Moon’ a little half way. And I decided why not post a little snippet from chapter 2. (Because im impatient and have control issues.)

Once again neither of them had been hiding their friendship at all, yet somehow Jason Carver was even more convinced that Chrissy had been cheating on him with Eddie. The guy was obtuse. Barely noticing that he was neglecting his relationship with such a wonderful human being, and seemingly being the only person at school who didn't pay attention to the gay rumors that have surrounded Eddie for years now. Sure, they were false. Well not fully. Like many things in life he even half assed being gay. Something that even shocked him.

"But I didn't even do anything Chris?" Eddie laughs softly. Turning his head to look at her shyly. Smiling gently as she gives him a bewildered look. Nearly stumbling over her feet in the process, blushing at the way Eddie's hand moves out and quickly helps her catch her balance. Smiling even more shy as he makes sure she's good before letting go. Ignoring the way her face goes a light pink.

A second passes before they both start to move again, Eddie's heart racing and face going a little red when he catches his Uncles eyes from the corner of his vision on them once again. He needed to ground himself, he was here to help search for Steve. Not trip over his feet for a cute girl who just got out of a relationship. That would be the most stupidest thing he has ever done, having a crush on somebody in a relationship is bad but liking someone who just got out of a relationship seeking for comfort? That might be worst. He felt like he was taking advantage of her, and he refused to do that. He didn't want to become some manipulative asshole.

"Well, I don't know. The fact that you knew more about my interests then my own boyfriend- well ex boyfriend. Was saying a whole lot about his character and very eye opening to me." Chrissy hums. Moving and walking again. Being more careful then what she had been. "And the fact that you went on a hour long rant over face time about how I deserved much better then him." She laughs gently. Eddies face only grows a bit more pink as he moves a hand shyly to move his curls in front of his face. In hopes to hide his facial expression. Though, there wasn't much hiding as he trips and falls on his hands and knees. Faintly hearing the laughter of his fellow teenagers behind him. He's flustered but what convinces him more that Chrissy is willing to be his friend, is the way she angrily turns on her heel and flips Jason and his small gang off. Silencing then, as Chrissy Cunningham never did such things.

Moving back, she bends down a little bit and helps Eddie up. Beaming as she giggles. "Happy to know I'm not the only clumsy one walking these woods." She jokes.

"Chrissy, you've literally been on top of a pyramid." Eddie snorts, not believing that she was clumsy at all.

"Yeah.. but that took a lot of practice. I don't know about you but I don't have much practice walking in these woods." She giggles, moving her smaller hands off from his forearms. Smiling as she starts to lead them forward once again.

"So...." Chrissy drags the word out gently, moving her feet and kicking stones around as they keep furthering their way into the woods.

"So?" Eddie snorts, looking at her with wonder. Biting his lip with a soft smile. Carefully fleeting his eyes from her back to the front of him. His eyes meeting Wayne's who was giving him a knowing look and a smirk. Causing him to mouth a silent 'fuck off' . He felt like some cringe eight year old dealing with his crush for the first time. This was all new to him, he's never had feelings for anyone before. Never had any desire about finding someone to have a relationship with, he was just Eddie and now he regrets not getting some experience. Maybe then if he had he wouldn't be literally tripping over his feet as much.

"Have you ever dated anyone before?" Chrissy asks curiously. Soft eyes looking at him, no looking through him as if she knows something he doesn't. A soft smile on her face, making her seem even more welcoming then before. Not judging as Eddie starts to cough a bit awkwardly, face a bright red as he shakes his head no in her direction. "Not even a guy?" She asks curiously. And oh god. Chrissy Cunningham believed  all of the rumors that surrounded him. Of course, her morbid curiosity was putting him in a rough spot. He was uncomfortable and he's never had to have this discussion with anyone before. Not even Wayne knew about his secret fantasies about Pedro Pascal, and if he did he was hiding it very well.

"Chrissy, you can't just ask things like that." Eddie hisses. For the first time since being around her, his shoulders are tense. His eyes fleeting over to his Uncle, who most likely thinks he's having one of the most straightest experiences of his life. Then his head turns carefully behind him, watching the way Jason jumps around a bit. Not taking any of this as seriously as he should. Here Eddie walked, on his journey to find Steve Harrington and on that journey he was somehow coming out as Bisexual. How ironic. Considering the fact he had a tiny, little crush on him when they had been younger. Long forgotten now.

"Oh, are you not?" Chrissy's eyes furrow with concern. "I assumed that you were after you wrote a whole poem about   Dean Winchesters chest." She whispers now. Catching onto trying to be low as possible.

Eddie rubs a hand over his face. Oh god he was going to die. He was willing to trip and crack his head open if it meant that he got out of this entire fucked up situation. Though there was something lurking inside of him that wanted to talk about this with someone. Of course, the whole conversation about Jenson Ackles "tits" had been had when he was completely high off his ass. Not thinking about what he was typing to Chrissy. Of course, a few other friends have received similar messages but it was something unsaid. Never to be brought up in front of anyone ever again. A stoned Eddie was a horny Eddie. Anxiety rose in his chest as he tosses a glance in his Uncles's way once again. Then sighing he gives in. Leans a little closer as he takes a shaky breathe.

"I do like guys, but I also like girls. And I would much rather leave my Uncle in the dark about that because there is no chance in a million years that I'm ever going to end up with a guy in the middle of bum fuck nowhere." Eddies voice cracks a little as he rambles close to the other. Wanting, no needing this conversation to be private as possible. "So-" he drags out the word that started this conversation awkwardly.

Chrissy smiles as she moves her hand down and carefully squeezes his hand into hers. Making his heart race as he quickly decides to add. "That and you can't just ask someone that out of nowhere? That's like... outing or something." His voice cracks more as he doesn't look up from the ground. Ears pink as well as he keeps walking forward. Not even sure where they were going, definitely not towards Steve Harrington. That was for sure.

"I'm so sorry. I thought we had this conversation over text message already. If I had known I wouldn't have just blurted it out like that. I know what it's like you know?" She says softly. Causing Eddie's head to poke up with interest. He's tempted to be bitter, tempted to say a snarky "how does the queen know? Do tell" instead he doesn't say that and just stays silent as he decides to listen. He wasn't good at good at reading signs, but this felt like a very keep your mouth shut situation.

"I think I might like both as well." Chrissy's soft voice cracks a little. Looking ahead, not meeting Eddie's eyes. "Though I think I have a preference for girls." She says gently. Eddies heart is conflicted. Here, there stood someone who was like him and that made him so happy. But there was another part, sad at the realization that the chances of being with her were remotely slim. He doesn't say anything, lets the information sink in. He squeezes her hand gently as he smiles painfully. Off to his left he sees his uncle smiling over at them. Probably assuming that they just confessed their love for each other, instead of coming out.

The situation was strong, emotional and overwhelming. But Eddie knew that Chrissy Cunningham was going to be his best friend in the entire world. No matter what he felt towards her.

Link to the first chapter

Chapter 2 should be up very soon :) I’m excited to share it lol.

THE BEST STEDDIE FANFICS IVE READ IN Ao3:

Freak trumps King by: apatheticBlues https://archiveofourown.org/works/40093815/chapters/100412094

Not so bad by: outofmygourd https://archiveofourown.org/works/39331002/chapters/98427678

[sadnessunderthebridge]

Yeah sure I think its cute and funny when Robin or Eddie have to practically tell Steve that no liking both boy/girls is not straight or that no not everyone feels like a girl sometimes or don't feel like anything sometimes.

I would like to think that Steve (Stevie depending on the day) is fully aware that it's not straight to like both boys/girls or that not everyone feels like a girl or like nothing at times. Like they are fully aware of this and while yes she had a panic about it at first just accepted it and he's moved on.

I would love for Stevie to just be chilling at home one day in a skirt with her hair up and Robin just bursts through the door, as she does, and instead of Stevie immediately panicking they just smile at Robin, quit tensley, because she knows their safe with Robin. And Robin can only stare,

"Oh my God Steve why are you in a skirt!"

But not in a mean way more of a wonder or in awe way. Cause she's not sure what's going on but 'damn Steve looks great in a skirt'. And Stevie trying to play it off and be cool about it ,

"Oh I got it when I went up to Indianapolis to get Eddie his new Amp"

And Robin is still dumbfounded because

"Okay cool but WHY are you in a skirt?"

And then Stevie proceeds to explain how today she was feeling like Stevie and that they had wanted to wear their skirt.

And Robin now realizing that Stevie felt safe enough with her that they weren't immediately running scared made her start to tear up and Stevie finally starts to panic because just because in her mind the only reason Robin would be starting to cry because she disgusted or disappointed in them. Because while Robin can accept that she is bi she might not accept that they don't always have a gender or are sometimes the opposite gender.

She immediately tries apologizing saying that they'll go change and starts to walk off, before Robin finally snaps out of it and tells Stevie how proud she is of them and that she will be their bestfriend no matter what and they have nothing to apologize for.

And later on a similar thing happens with Eddie and he just smiles and from then on uses other pet names most importantly Eddies Baby Girl and Steve just lives for it because she loves that they are being called Eddie's and the baby girl just makes it even better.

steddie fic recs pls!

YES YES THANK YOU get ready i have a LOT

chelsea by randomascas is a popular one, but for good reason. ft background ronance, tragic eddie backstory and steve being on the brink of death yet again. canon compliant excluding volume 2 (which i suggest we do <3)

the backseat lovers by froggieyama doesnt have a plot, but god does it describe their love in such a beautiful, lovely way

whole lotta love by @stereobone is such a quintessential steddie fic. steve and eddie are dating. steve does not realise they're dating. i love my bi himbo king. (this one is explicit, but honestly i don't think the sex is all that graphic and it is just one part, so read at your own discretion)

you got me running like a hurricane by @anniebibananie is the ultimate fix it, in which eddie doesn't actually 100% die in the upside down and instead finds his soul tethered to steve. basically. this one's very sweet, whilst also having a tiny bit of angst to make you go "ouch"

keep me in your glow by birthdaycandles ( @steveharrington ) is very nice. eddie helps take care of steve post volume 1, which apparently includes doing steve's skincare because of course it does. they're so cute

we're just kids in the dark by fagurfiskur ( @perlukafarinn ) is the fruity four sleepover fic of my dreams. nancy brings tequila, eddie brings pot, steve gets his hair braided and everyone has a fun gay time. also shotgunning!!

L is for linoleum (and nothing else) by localman ( @locallmann ) is a heavy one, i'll admit, but i cannot recommend it enough. there is an unfortunate lack of trans eddie in fanfics currently, and i feel this one does a really good job of realistically representing both his and the others' struggles as queer teens in the 80s. see individual chapter notes + the fic tags for tws, but i seriously implore you to read this if you're comfortable

sir stephen strider find his suzie by @lesbianrobin is VERY very cute. steve fills in for lucas during hellfire, and dustin witnesses steve and eddie flirting like crazy during the campaign. honestly, this one made me giggle a lot, and i left it feeling all warm and nice. the way the author writes steve and dustin's relationship just DOES IT for me because it feels so natural and so them. also dustin's little spiral about maybe being homophobic has been on my mind since i read this. god i love it.

another one by lesbianrobin - my hands are tied may be my favourite steddie fic to date. there's a Lot of steddie handcuff sex stuff on ao3 and whilst i DO love it unashamedly, this fic is just. so good and so realistic because YEAH duh steve would probably associate bondage with his trauma and have a panic attack why is nobody else thinking of this. i really really Really love this fic (JUST TO CLARIFY THIS IS RATED TEEN!! no sex dw)

you are going to die in your best friend's arms. (but he won't let you leave like that) by oaseas is so so SO SO good. it follows dustin as he becomes unstuck in time on the day that eddie died and tries over and over to save him and break the loop. it has some absolutely wonderful bonding moments between dustin and both steve & eddie, and whilst the steddie is not the Primary focus we do see dustin slowly realise just how deeply the two care about each other as he goes through each loop. i absolutely adored this fic, and genuinely felt emotional at times. highly highly recommend

last but not least, a sign of the morning by @toedenandbackagain . this is a LONG fic (86.8k!!! love), and just such a good slow burn friends to lovers. i love when fics include steddie having history pre vecna, but often find it cheesy or unrealistic. this, however, i felt was completely believable and very well written. i was reading this as each update dropped and let me tell you the way my heart sunk at the end of chapter 11?? i was going absolutely insane i was so upset and so affected, and really i think that's telling of how well written this fic is. cannot recommend it enough

i could probably keep going, but i think 11 recs is good for now lmao. please please check all these out and support the authors!! steddie writers on ao3 are the backbone to society atm they're doing some incredible work

five comfort characters

Rules: Post your top five favorite comfort characters. I was tagged by the lovely and talented @santacarlahorrorshow​! Thank you so much, friend! 💛 

I had the hardest time narrowing these down, and since I’m too indecisive for superlatives, let’s just call this a list of five of my comfort characters 😂

1. Kaz Brekker (Six of Crows): Maybe a weird choice for a comfort character since he’s well, Kaz, but Six of Crows has been my favorite series for several years now, and rereading always feels like visiting old friends. I love this disaster child and want better things for him than he allows himself to dream of. 

2. Steve Harrington (Stranger Things): One thing I really love about Steve is that he always tries to make up for his mistakes and keep growing as a person. He’s a sweetheart with amazing hair, and seeing his character development always gives me hope.

3. Kit Walker (American Horror Story: Asylum): Newer addition to the list, but not less important. This boy had been to hell and back and still chooses compassion and empathy at every available opportunity, and it means so much.

4. Diego Hargreeves (The Umbrella Academy): Knife boy, my beloved. I always come back to Diego because he just cares so much about his family and friends, and him slowly learning to admit it to them is equal parts heartbreaking and heartwarming. 

5. Violet Baudelaire (A Series of Unfortunate Events): She’s a badass with a big heart and her continued courage and empathy in the face of everything is both comforting and inspiring. I love the way she problems solves and stands beside her siblings no matter what happens. 

Tagging (without obligation!): @the-bi-sokka-club​, @katarascape​, @steveharrington​, @jettreno​, @thegreatobsesso​, and anyone else who wants to!

Necklace/ Steve Harrington

Show: Stranger Things 

Pairing: Steve Harrington x reader

Warning: nothing just some fluff because i´m a sucker for Steve Harrington

(gif credit to @bi-steveharrington )

The first time Steve had asked you out was in high school, you thought it was just a sick joke, he was the popular guy. Everyone knew who he was. You thought about it for a while, what could go wrong? The first date was nothing you imagined, you two went to the arcade and played all night long, turns out you were better at Pacman than he was and you never even played it before. 

“I win” you smiled as you showed him your score.“I guess.” Steve pouted as you walked towards him. You kissed his cheek before looking at the clock. It was already 9.45 pm, meaning you had to be home by 10. Steve took your hand and went for the exit. He opened the car door for you as you thanked him. 

“I had fun tonight, thank you Steve.” Your house came into sight as you sighed. “Steve smiled turning towards you. The moonlight was shining just perfectly, complementing every single one of your features perfectly.He wanted to kiss you in that moment but decided against it, not wanting to rush into anything, and also your dad was standing in the doorway. You kissed his cheek before hurrying out the car and into your house. That´s when Steve drove off blushing.

5 months passed and a lot has happened since then. Steve had asked you to be his. Billy Hargrove came was the new Keg King making everyone forget about Steve. Steve turned for the better, helping Dustin or the party. Steve got a new Job at Scoops Ahoy. That´s where you recently were in the back room waiting for Steve to finish his shift. In front of you a big bowl of Banana split, your favorite. 

“You ready baby?” he asked as he changed into normal clothes, He stole a spoon of banana split from you, making you glare at him. You finished just in time for Steve to finish changing. You both said goodbye to Robin as you made your way out of Scoops Ahoy. You did your daily Routine looking through the shops in Starcourt mall, you passed a jewelry store as you looked through the window at the necklaces and bracelets. You gasped at a necklace. It had a little heart on it. 

“Like anything you see baby?” Steve asked, you pointed towards the necklace with the heart. “Its beautiful” you smiled before looking at the price tag. 200 dollars. 

“You want it?” Steve asked as you shake your head. “No its too expensive Steve.” you smiled softly as you took his hand before walking away from it. But Steve wouldn't be Steve if he didn't make you happy. The next day you had to go to work which was perfect for Steve to go with his plan. He had saved some money from his work for your perfect anniversary gift and he now knew what to get you. The next day rolled around and he made sure that the necklace was still there after his shift. His shift ended and he basically run towards the jewelry store and bought the necklace.

“Be ready by 7″ he had texted you making you smile. It was your 6 month anniversary today and you were excited. You texted him back saying that you would be ready by then and sent him a heart. 

Work ended and you rode your bike home, you told your parents that you would sleep over at Steve´, your parents loved Steve from the first moment when he picked you up for your first date, so you didn't have to worry about anything.

You picked out your favorite date outfit before getting ready what had to be done as 7 pm rolled around. You finished just in time for Steve to ring the doorbell. You said goodbye to your parents before making your way out the door. Steve stood at the side of his car looking up. 

“You look beautiful as always baby” He whispered as he took your bag putting in the Trunk before opening the car door for you. He drove of as you admired him for the side. 

“Your staring again” he chuckled. “I´m just admiring that your mine.” making Steve blush. He brought the car to a stop as you took in the surroundings. You hadn't even noticed that Steve drove into a Forrest.

“Your not gonna kill me for our 6 month anniversary right?” you asked as Steve chuckled. He got out of the car opening your door as he held out his hand for you. You smiled gladly taking it as he helped you out. He went to his Trunk taking out a basket and a blindfold. 

“Put this on please”  he said as he handed you the blindfold, you furrowed your eyes but did it anyway. He handed you the basket before scooping you up into his arms making you squeal and him laugh. You felt him walk for a few minutes before coming to another stop. He put you down as he undid the blindfold. You squinted your eyes open as you gasped at the beautiful view that was in front of you. 

“Wow” that was all you could manage to say as you turned towards Steve. “How did you find that place?” in front of you was a beautiful waterfall with a little field next to it. He shrugged as you put down the basket. You walked towards him as you put your arms around his neck as his went around your waist. 

You kissed his lips, both of you smiling into it.You took out all the food Steve had in that basket before getting comfortable in each others arms. You two sat there for a few hours just enjoying each others company while eating some food.  

“May i have this dance m´lady?” Steve asked as he stood up, you nodded smiling. “You may have this dance” Steve put on some music before wrapping his arms around you softly swaying you both to the music in the background. His company was all you needed to be happy. 

“Happy 6th month anniversary beautiful.” You said it back but handsome instead of beautiful. The song stopped as did Steve. He walked over to his jacket taking a small box out before making his way back to you. He handed you the box as your eyes widen. 

“You did not Steve” you gasped as you saw the necklace that you absolutely adored in the jewelry store. “I did and before you say anything, it´s my gift for you so no you don´t have to pay me back for it” You smiled as he took the necklace from your hands and wrapped it around your neck. You put your hand over the heart, as you looked into Steve´s eyes. 

“I love you Steve Harrington, so much” his eyes widen. Neither of you had said it yet. This was all he had dreamed of and it was reality now. 

“I love you Y/N Y/L/N, so much more” he whispered as he put his hand on your cheek leaning in. You went in too meeting him halfway. This felt like your first kiss all over again and you loved it. You loved him and he loved you and nothing could ever change that.

character tag game

Rules:  Name three characters who live in your head rent free and why?

I was tagged by the lovely and talented @midnightseance! Thank you so much! I had kind of a difficult time narrowing it down to three (my head is very crowded and no one’s paying rent, lol), so I thought I’d pick some characters who I don’t talk about as much here but nonetheless think about constantly. These are in no particular order 😊

1. Chidi Anagonye (The Good Place)

Chidi is a character I relate to probably more than I should, lol, but wow, I love his whole character and arc so much. He is indecisive and awkward but so committed to doing the right thing, and cares so openly and deeply about both ethics and the people in his life. He has convinced himself that he always takes too long to think, but we see that he doesn’t hesitate to step in when one of his friends is in danger. Watching him grow over the course of four seasons was just so wonderful to see, and the part in season four when he gets all his memories back (”shut up, I’m confident now”) is something I like to watch whenever I’m sad. 

2.  Kaz Brekker (Six of Crows Duology)

Honestly, I could’ve put any of the crows here because the character writing in those books is A++ and I adore them all Netflix please don’t mess it up, but I’m basic, so here’s Kaz. One of the most compelling things about him as a character is that the story is very explicit, right from the beginning, about who he is: he’s ruthless and calculating and he isn’t secretly a good person beneath it all. But he is a person. And throughout the story we gain a better understanding of him (though he likes to think he’s unknowable), the people he cares for, and the clunky, awkward ways he’s never quite able to tell them that. He’s cunning and determined but also multifaceted, sympathetic, and even understandable on occasion (particularly the moments where he turns into the heart-eyes emoji for Inej Ghafa because same) I adore him and his development, and “is my tie straight?” makes me melt into a puddle every time. 

3. Kit Walker (American Horror Story: Asylum)

For the exact opposite reasons as the above, lol, I love Kit because he is such a consistently and unflinchingly good person. Like, the entire season is really just various people taking advantage of the fact that he’s trusting and kind, but he never stops caring and trying to help other people. I always remember the part in the second(?) episode, where Lana sabotage’s his and Grace’s escape attempt because she thinks he’s a serial killer (long story), and he takes both his own and Grace’s punishments for it. And THEN, the next time he sees Lana, instead of being understandably upset because he legit got beaten because of her, he just tells her that if he believed the things about himself that she does, he would’ve done the same thing and holds no ill will towards her whatsoever. He’s just a precious golden retriever of a human being, and deserves so much better than the hand he gets dealt.
