Summary
Eddie had always expected that he would find his soulmate through the snap of a broken guitar string, or the needle burn of his tattoos. Instead, Billy Hargrove breaks a plate over Steve’s Harrington’s head and Eddie finds himself tied to a boy he knows only through the lens of the high school hierarchies.
Almost a year later, Eddie has spent time learning everything he can about Steve - the way he thinks, the things that send him into a panic he can't - or won't - explain, the look in his eyes before he says something heinously bitchy and devastatingly funny. He and Uncle Wayne have found themselves permanent seats at Victoria Harrington’s Sunday Dinners, and Eddie can almost ignore the rabbit pace of his heart when Steve smiles at him.
Except that Steve has gone missing, had bailed on their plans for the Fourth of July weekend without a word and this would be fine, really, except…
Eddie’s getting bruises that aren’t his own and Victoria hasn’t seen her son in days.
While Eddie's injuries get steadily worse, he and Victoria scramble across town to try and find Steve and save him from whatever nightmare situation he landed in before it’s too late.
Project 040 of the Steddie Big Bang 2023!

Summary
Thank you.’ Eddie lays his hand on the back of Steve’s exposed neck, right below his hairline. His skin is cool, it’s soothing.
Something kind of unlocks in Steve’s middle.
Like a bad bone cracking in half.
Like a rotted dam giving way to the weight of the water.

Summary
In the wake of yet another overtly public scandal, the lead guitarist for the folk metal band Corroded Coffin is sent away to his Uncle’s town of Bumfuck Nowhere, Indiana to spend his summer taking care of himself.
Which said lead guitarist certainly doesn’t need. Because Chrissy is overreacting, and Eddie doesn’t need to be treated like a Victorian child with a prescription for ocean breezes, he needs to be in LA with his band, practicing. Writing. Rehearsing.
He’s fine.
But his manager’s will is iron, and Eddie arrives at his uncle’s door feeling much like the homeless teen he was a mere decade ago, tail between his legs as he asks for more than he’s ever been able to give, and taking more than he can ever hope to repay.
With Wayne taking his arrival in stride, Eddie is forced to integrate himself into this new, slower-paced reality. He harvests chicken eggs. Churns mayonnaise. Takes a stab at home repair and weeds Wayne’s garden, all while eyeing the unfairly hot beekeeper next door.
However as the summer progresses, and Eddie falls faster and deeper than he ever imagined, this new reality forces him to grapple with what his fame has given him, and what it has taken away.

Summary
Rockstar Eddie Munson needs a fake boyfriend after a scandal; enter high end escort Steve Harrington. Unfortunately Eddie's heart didn't get the memo on the 'fake' part of the deal, while the more time he spends with Steve the deeper he falls, the closer he gets to something that looks a whole lot darker than a college student just trying to pay off his student loans.
“For you, your highness.” Eddie bent at the waist as he offered the cheap stuffed animal.
Steve’s eyes went wide, but he accepted the little stuffed animal, holding it up for inspection. Some of the stitches were visible and his eyes were lopsided, but it didn’t change the way Eddie’s heart stuttered as Steve very gently touched its nose against his own, holding it like it were an actual small creature and not cotton and thread.
“What’s his name?”
“Bernard,” Steve said with such confidence that Eddie couldn’t help laughing.
“What?” Steve said, looking mildly affronted.
Eddie grinned. “No, it’s a great name, Bernard the Bat. Berry for short even.”
Steve crossed his arms, but with the stuffed animal it looked more like he was hugging it to his chest.
“Slushies?” Eddie said before he could do anything stupid.
