    Summary

    It starts as a routine. Steve drives past all their houses, just to make sure they're home. And then it's not so easy to sleep any more without checking and rechecking.

    Eddie catches him out. 

    (a story about healing in small parts with someone who understands, about the give and take, the sharing and the listening - and maybe falling a little bit in love along the way)

    Summary

    "He washes his wounds off, sparingly, with water this time. He figures it’s probably time to do so. Maybe he’ll be okay.

    He falls asleep in the bathtub with a chair wedged against the bathroom door to keep it from opening.

    He dreams he’s hanging on in the back of the RV they stole, and Steve Harrington is yelling at him.

    “Hang on!” he’s saying, “Hang on!”"

    ——————————

    Eddie Munson is stuck in the Upside Down. Barely alive.
    Steve Harrington is trying to sleep and failing at it, miserably.
    What a strange thing it is, to save the world alongside friends
    and come away from it with nightmares and loneliness.

    title from 'Boy Like Me' by Barns Courtney
    alternatively titled: "a crowd of about five drunks"
