    Summary

    “You know I think about two-thirds of Hawkins High would claw my actual eyes out to have the Steve Harrington as their soulmate.” Eddie says thoughtfully and then waggles his eyebrows.

    Steve laughs. “Two-thirds? Seems awfully low.”

    Summary

    “You wrote to me.” It’s not a question.

    “Yeah, I – er, I mean. No.” The letters on the bed glare up at him, shaking their head in their obviousness.

    “Which is it?” Will asks, and he’s nervous. Is he nervous? Mike wonders suddenly, because if anything, the boy looks fucking cocksure right now, with that half-hidden sort of grin at the corner of his mouth. And Mike is not turned on by it at all. Obviously. Because he is terrified.

    “I wrote them, I just er, I never sent them.”

    “No shit,” Will laughs, openly this time, taking a step closer to the bed. Mike forgets how to breathe. He can smell the fucking rain now, mixed with the scent of Will’s skin, and his shampoo, and the same fucking laundry detergent Joyce has used since they were in kindergarden. And Mike knows, with absolute certainty, he’s about to pass out.

    Or: Will discovers Mike’s box of unsent letters. And Mike starts thinking in clichés. Two-way Lettergate

    Summary

    He sometimes imagines how it would feel to be in Munson's orbit. Sometimes imagines where his words would be. Hopes they'd curl along Munson's cheek bone where Steve could brush his thumb so easily. Or in the junction between his neck and shoulder, a place where Steve could drop kisses. Or along the curve of his hip, where Steve's palm could settle.

    None of it matters because Steve never says anything.

    or the one where Steve gets his words in high school and never says anything

    Summary

    Eddie’s soulmate mark reads like a curse, one that he’s carried for years, proof that fate hates him. But when those words come out of Steve Harrington’s mouth in a school hallway, Eddie swears he’ll never say a word to him. Not a single word. This self imposed silence has since kept Eddie safe. Right up until his and Steve meddling friends, Robin and Dustin, get involved.
