Steve Harrington volunteers to help coach a Hawkins tee-ball team and doesn’t expect to meet a single mother and her five-year-old daughter who quietly change the shape of his life. Set post-canon, this is a slow-burn story about staying, showing up, and falling in love where you least expect it.
Y/N Henderson never meant to fall for her best friend Steve Harrington—but agreeing to fake date him might be the dumbest, most heart-wrecking choice she’s ever made. Two idiots. One fake relationship. And feelings they can’t outrun. A modern AU.
Steve Harrington has been secretly in love with his best friend for years—so with Robin as his overly enthusiastic wingman, he launches a subtle (and sometimes hilariously obvious) mission to win their heart. Flirting, pining, and chaos ensue as two oblivious best friends circle the truth they’ve both been avoiding: they’re already halfway in love.
