    Summary

    “Sorry just paying for…”

    “Table 12! I remember,” she injects brightly whilst ringing him up.

    Eddie only winces slightly at the final count of the bill as he reaches into his wallet for his card.

    “You have a gorgeous family.”

    Eddie feels his face split into a wide grin. “Thank you.”

    “How long have you and your husband been together?”

    The words rattle around in Eddie’s head for a moment as he stammers like a fool, mid-swipe of his card. “I—Uh, seven…seven years.”

    The waitress smiles brightly. “That’s so sweet, have a great rest of your day, sir.”

    “Uh, yeah. Thanks.” Eddie places a fiver in the tip jar and spins right on his heels, leaving the cafe in a rush.

    Who did she—did she mean? Buck?

    OR

    Eddie finds out how many times people have thought he and Buck were together and promptly spirals, realising that he wants to make it a reality.

    “On the other side of this,” Eddie whispers. “Maybe we can try it.”

    “Hm, okay,” Buck hums, apparently awake, but barely. “What are we tryin’?”

    “I know now isn’t the right time. I’m not - - we’re not ready. But this next bit isn’t going to be pretty. It’s going to be hard. And I need you to know, so you have something to hold on to. So that I don’t forget what it feels like. What it felt like. We could - - we could try.”

     

    Or, after the kidnapping, Buck goes through it. Eddie goes through it with him.

    Summary

    Eddie’s massage therapist is Briana. 

    He confirmed this six times: twice on the website, once during a phone call he made from his truck in the grocery store parking lot like it was a covert operation, three more times in the confirmation email.

    "Eddie?"

    He looks up.

    That is not Briana.

    The guy standing in the hallway entrance is tall and built like someone whose job description wildly undersold the physical reality. There's a birthmark above his eye that shouldn't work but does, way too much, and his scrubs fit him well. They — okay. They fit him obscenely well, actually.

    His arms. God, his arms. They're just arms. Everyone has arms.

    Eddie is suddenly, involuntarily, thinking about what it would feel like to have those arms braced on either side of him. Or around him. Or holding him down.

    Which is not a thought he's ever had about a man's arms before. He's pretty sure. He's almost sure. He's going to move on from this.

    He is going to stop looking at the arms.

    Any second now.

    Or,
    It's just a massage. Eddie can survive that. Right?

    Summary

    Steve was once the epitome of separation anxiety, always keeping tabs on people. The fact that this version of him exists, self-alienating from everybody he loves other than Robin, Dustin, and-

    Wait.

    “Why face me, then?”

    With a tone much too light-hearted for the subject at hand, Steve replies, “The same reason you stayed for coffee.” His grin is so sincere, it’s almost unnerving. “We’re both scared of being alone.”


    It’s 2009, and Jonathan Byers has found his way back to Indiana. Steve Harrington never left.

    Summary

    “I can be your blanket if you get cold,” Jonathan offers.
    “Hm.” Steve’s tongue wets his lips. Jonathan is momentarily transfixed by the movement over the bow of their shape and the texture created by the delicate crinkles of chapped skin.
    “We can share body heat,” Jonathan continues when he gets no further response. “We’ll open our jackets and I’ll sit in your lap so we can snuggle.”
    An eye cracks open to peer at Jonathan.
    “Snuggle?”

    or

    On the way back to college, Steve and Jonathan get stuck in a snow bank.
