    Summary

    “I can go a night without feeding, Baby,” said Eddie.

    “If you skip dinner, you’ll be grouchy and pathetic in the morning.” What Steve really wanted was to wrestle Eddie into submission. He’d tease and goad him into unleashing that vampire super-strength, grappling till Steve was the one pinned to the mattress and then... Annoyingly, Steve was too feeble to even try and sit, so he sneered. “What happens if I’m dumb enough to get jumped again tomorrow? Or Robin, or Dustin, or any of the kids? As much as I hate to admit it, they need a tame vamp looking out for them, way more than they need me these days.”


    Or, Steve will go to great lengths to save himself for his boyfriend.  For @steddielovemonth, day 11. 'Love is saving the last bite for them,' from (@acasualcrossfade) Thank you <3

    “Steve!” Eddie yelled.]

    Summary

    When Steve's phone rings at 2am, he doesn't expect Jonathan to be the one on the other end, and he especially doesn't expect to hear Jonathan begging for him to help them. But here he was, not even putting shoes on as he raced to the Byers house to reach Will in time, because Jonathan was still twenty minutes away and Lonnie was back. Steve didn't ask, but the pure terror in Jonathan's voice told him all he needed to know. Will was in serious trouble, and Steve wouldn't let what happen to him as a kid happen to Will Byers.

    OR
