Ever since his career took off, Steve’s life has been a crazy ride full of opportunities he didn’t dare dream of before.

He’s got options now, can choose which roles he wants to take and which projects to support. Gets to travel the world and meet amazing people. Made wonderful friends amongst his co-stars, constantly learning, improving his acting, and finding new ways to challenge himself.

It’s fun and versatile, but the life that comes with the job he loves has its downsides, too. Makes it harder to settle when you’re constantly moving, desperately grasping for something that keeps you grounded.

(I made this little edit to go along with my fic he keeps on loving me (and i keep on wondering why) that I wrote for my @steddiebingo "proposal" prompt.)

The sun is hot, blisteringly so, and Eddie steps on the edge of the shovel again. Pushing down hard. Digging into the old red dirt that's hidden away under the sod. Twisting, taking another chunk out, before tossing it aside. He'd just gotten the grass looking green instead of brown, at the cost of effort and time, both of which are always in short supply. Now there's gonna be an eyesore of a trench cutting across the yard.

Figures.

Get one step ahead, only to get knocked three steps back. It's all Eddie's ever known.

There's definitely a stoppage, and the rural sewer district insists it's on their side, not the county's, which makes it Eddie's responsibility to fix. 

Wayne borrowed a hand crank snake from a friend at work, and they never even met resistance as they worked it down through the drain, as far as it'd go. The cleanout still running water out indicated the clog wasn't in the house, but somewhere else in the line, so they rented a hundred foot snake to run down the cleanout.

Sure that'd get it.

Still nothing.

for @steddiesportsau inspired by 'the cutting edge' which is a very stereotypical figure skater/hockey romance from the early 90s and it raised me

Eddie is so sick of hockey players.

Especially the one that’s been forced upon him as a partner.

“He’s the only one willing to work with you,” Robin explains. “You’ll do it or no gold. And then I have no job. I have no job, I have no money. I have no money-“

“You’d never be homeless,” Eddie shakes his head, familiar with the way this always goes. She panics. She’s the best coach he’ll ever have, but her anxiety needs to be medicated. Or maybe not. He’s a bit amused by it. “I have a guest room.”

“And you have a cat who is lovely, but makes my throat close up.” She sighs. “It was one bad first impression. He might be the answer to your prayers.”

“Was I supposed to be praying?” Eddie finishes lacing up his skates as he smirks up at her.

“It couldn’t hurt,” she sighs. She checks her watch. “He’s late.”

“Not late!” Steve Harrington runs to the bench and shoves off his shoes. “Grabbed the wrong skates when I left.”

Eddie rolls his eyes. “Great. Lace them up and let’s go. You’ve got a lot of work to do.”

Robin sighs again, but she doesn’t try to make Eddie be nicer. She wouldn’t be able to anyway.

harder stuff

"If you're lookin' to score something harder, I'm not your guy," Munson says as Tommy stands awkwardly behind them. Steve rolls his eyes. "Might have to go to one of your daddy's friends for that shit."

"Dude, I'm not asking my dad's business partners for coke," Steve looks over at Tommy. "Nevermind. Just give us the other stuff."

Eddie hands over a bag of mushrooms and a few joints.

Steve hands him the cash, then hands the stuff to Tommy. "Wait in the car," he tells him. Tommy goes because he's nervous, but Steve's gonna hear all about how he shouldn't be ordering him around later.

"What an obedient dog you have there," Eddie teases when Tommy's gone.

Steve pushes Eddie against a tree, crushes their lips together. Eddie moans, grabs the sides of Steve's head to hold him in place.

Steve's knee is between his legs, rubbing against Eddie's hardening dick.

"Thought you said you didn't have anything harder," Steve laughs against his mouth.

"Oh, I thought you asked for coke, not cock," Eddie grins as he finds the perfect angle for rubbing off against Steve's thigh. "My bad."

Steve bites his shoulder hard and he feels like he's going insane. Tommy's not that far away, sitting in Steve's car waiting for him to return. They can't do anything; They don't have time.

Steve's acting like they do, though. As if they have all the time in the world.

"Why'd you bring him if you were gonna try to fuck me against a tree?" Eddie gasps as Steve's mouth sucks a bruise against his collarbone. He doesn't know why he's humoring him like this. It's gotta be the charm.

"He wouldn't fuckin' leave," Steve says against his skin. "Had no choice."

"I'll come to yours later," Eddie offers.

"Want you now," Steve nips at his neck. "C'mon. You can be quick."

"Excuse me, I-" They both freeze when Tommy's voice is heard not too far away, yelling for Steve. "You need to go. Later, okay?"

"But-"

Eddie shuts him up with a kiss.

"I'll bring the harder stuff later, baby."

So I finally watched Stranger Thing Season 4 and, of course, I love Eddie. I am also shipper trash so here is a silly little Steddie comic where Steve gets a cool new tattoo. 💕💞💓

Part One Nine

He didn’t even say 'hello,' just, “you need to get some shoes on.”

Like Eddie’s being tested, right out of the gate. Eddie stares at the dog. The dog stares back. It’s sitting on it’s ass at the front door, right where Steve left it, neatly holding the end of its lead in it’s mouth like butter wouldn’t melt, tail swishing back and forth over the tiles as it slowly wags.

Eddie shoves his feet into some sneakers. Growing up they would have been the cheapest white sneaks going. Now they, to Eddie, look exactly the same as the ones he had growing up, and yet cost several thousand dollars more.

i’m obsessed with this man

twinsies

he’s vibing

A steddie swan lake au would actually be hilarious with the canon knowledge of Eddie's duck phobia

I just think I'd die of laughter if Steve transforms in front of Eddie, changing from the love of his life to his worst nightmare and it's just this 🦢
