i like steve harrington ok bai wait first play my stories ty

iloveit ; steve harrington

he’s not your boyfriend. you’re not his girlfriend. but he texts you good morning, gets jealous when other guys look your way, and somehow always ends up by your side. steve harrington doesn’t do relationships, and you’ve spent months pretending you’re okay with that. between messy parties, mixed signals, and feelings neither of you wants to admit, at least you’ve got your best friends, jennifer and dani, to help you navigate the chaos. a college situationship, questionable decisions, jealous arguments, and absolutely no labels.

scoops and second chances ; steve harrington

being dustin henderson’s cool older sister has its perks. unfortunately, one of them is having steve harrington as your ex-boyfriend. after a messy breakup, you figured you’d never have to deal with him again. that is, until you both end up working at scoops ahoy for the summer. turns out sharing a workplace with your ex is pretty awkward… especially when he might still be in love with you. looks like it’s going to be a long summer in hawkins.

fuck it, guess we both ain’t shit ; steve h

modern college au. you have a boyfriend. steve has a girlfriend. and somehow, you’re both still finding ways to get involved with each other. almost a year after a messy breakup, you and steve harrington haven’t exactly moved on. now you’re both in college, juggling classes, parties, relationships, and whatever the hell is still going on between you two. between late-night texts, flirting, jealousy, and constantly crossing lines you both know shouldn’t be crossed, things are getting complicated. the worst part? neither of you actually wants to leave your current relationship. you’re both getting exactly what you want, until someone starts noticing.

illicit affairs ; steve harrington

you were never supposed to fall for steve harrington. especially not when he already had a girlfriend. it started with robin introducing you two at scoops ahoy, back when everything was simple. now, a year later, you’re still finding excuses to visit him and robin at family video. somewhere between inside jokes, late-night texts, and conversations that last a little too long, steve becomes someone you can’t imagine your days without. the problem? he’s taken. maddie bennett is his girlfriend, and neither of you has any idea what to do with the feelings slowly growing between you. with robin watching closely, friends starting to notice, and a summer full of parties, movie nights, and questionable decisions ahead, things are bound to get complicated. because sometimes the hardest part isn’t falling for someone. it’s knowing you can never really have them.

party like i’m 21 ; steve harrington

modern AU summer ’86. no school, no responsibilities, and plenty of bad decisions waiting to happen. weekend parties with your two best friends, jenny and dani, are practically a tradition. you’re not looking for anything serious, just a good time. until you see him. steve harrington. a cute stranger, a little too charming, and exactly your type. one party, one exchanged number, and one night that was supposed to mean nothing. too bad some people don’t know when to leave things at one night.

between the bells ; Mr. Harrington.

steve harrington takes a temporary substitute teaching job at hawkins elementary to build his résumé before pursuing high school teaching and basketball coaching. he doesn’t expect to get attached to the kids—or caught up in the staff’s drama. there’s jenny, your sarcastic, outspoken best friend who lives for gossip; melissa, a confident, shamelessly flirty third-grade teacher; mike, the laid-back, competitive p.e. teacher who quickly becomes steve’s closest friend; and diane, the sharp, dry-humored senior teacher everyone turns to for her honest advice and wisdom. and then there’s you: an environmental educator with a boyfriend and a talent for finding yourself in ridiculous situations. between teasing, jealousy, staff-room gossip, and feelings nobody planned for, steve’s temporary job might turn into something much more complicated

snowflakes & steve harrington

december 1985, hawkins, indiana. two months ago, you walked into family video looking for a movie and somehow walked out with steve harrington’s phone number. now you’re officially his girlfriend, spending your first christmas together, and finally meeting the group of friends he’s been talking your ear off about. robin already knows you, but dustin, max, lucas, nancy, and eddie? not so much. apparently, steve’s been telling them plenty about you. let’s just hope they don’t embarrass him too much

playing with fire

you, billy, and max have just moved to hawkins, indiana, where you’re about to start your senior year at hawkins high. you’re popular, confident, sharp-tongued, and known for never taking relationships seriously. with your best friend, jennifer check, by your side, you’re ready to make your mark. unfortunately, you develop a crush on steve harrington, hawkins’ arrogant, cocky king, who’s currently dating nancy wheeler. determined to get closer to him without making your feelings obvious, you befriend his friends, tommy and carol, secretly working your way into his social circle while jennifer encourages your questionable decisions. all the while, you have to make sure billy never finds out. after all, the last thing you need is your overprotective stepbrother discovering you’re interested in steve harrington

nothing serious; steve harrington

modern au ♡ steve harrington slides into your dms, and what starts as casual flirting turns into late-night texts, parties, and something neither of you wants to label. steve doesn’t do relationships, and you’re sure you can handle that. with sarah cameron, your bff, by your side, you think you’ve got everything under control. but when feelings get involved and you’re not the only girl he’s talking to, things get complicated.

the things we never said ; steve harrington

you were steve harrington’s first love. now, you’re the one he can’t get over. hawkins, 1986. you and steve were each other’s everything until growing up and falling apart turned your love story into a heartbreak. now, you’re back in each other’s lives, but there’s one problem: you have a boyfriend. danny miller is sweet, thoughtful, and makes you genuinely happy. steve hasn’t even met him, but somehow, he’s already got a problem with him. he asks questions, makes sarcastic comments, and insists on calling him daniel. robin thinks it’s pathetic. steve insists he’s just curious. he’s lying. between old memories, familiar teasing, jealous remarks, and feelings neither of you knows what to do with, steve has to face the one thing he’s been avoiding: you might not be his anymore.

the algorithm knows ; steve harrington

he saved the world, got hot, and now thinks he’s god’s gift to women. unfortunately, he’s also your best friend. even more unfortunately, you’re starting to fall for him. and those suspicious reposts? yeah, you’re definitely not stalking them. lmao kidding. (you’re absolutelycooked.)

criminal ; steve harrington

steve harrington was once hawkins’ golden boy, and you were the girl who knew him before the world ever did. before nancy wheeler, before the parties and the popularity, before he became so caught up in being someone that he forgot how to love someone. you watched him grow distant, listened to his excuses, and eventually walked away from the boy who once promised you everything. he never stopped you, and you never told him how much it hurt. then nancy left. tommy and carol fell out of his life, too, and steve stopped trying to be the person everyone expected him to be. stolen goods, shady deals, dangerous friends, and late nights became his new normal. he was still charming, still cocky, still steve harrington—but there was something darker behind that familiar smile. months later, fate puts you in his path again. he acts like no time has passed, calling you sweetheart and wearing that infuriating smirk like he never broke your heart. but you remember the boy underneath the reputation, and he remembers the girl who knew him better than anyone. neither of you ever got closure. neither of you ever admitted what you really felt. and now, with steve getting deeper into a life he refuses to explain, you’re left wondering whether the boy you loved is still in there—or if loving him again will be your biggest mistake. he’s bad news. you know better. but some people are harder to quit than they are to love.

don’t think of her. ; steve harrington

last christmas, you were steve harrington’s girl. you spent christmas morning in his pajamas, drinking hot chocolate, exchanging presents, and falling asleep tangled up in each other’s arms. just the two of you, exactly how he wanted it. this christmas? you’re his ex-girlfriend. you broke up because you wanted different things for your futures, and even though neither of you stopped loving the other, sometimes love just isn’t enough. at least, that’s what you’ve been telling yourself. now you’re eighteen, steve’s nineteen, and christmas has brought you both back to the wheelers’ house with robin, dustin, and the rest of the kids. you’re still comfortable enough to tease steve, laugh at his stupid jokes, and call him by the same old nicknames. sometimes, you almost forget you’re not together anymore. steve, unfortunately, has forgotten absolutely nothing. he remembers your favorite hot chocolate, the way you stole his pajamas, and every little thing about you that he should probably be over by now. he tries to distract himself with robin, the kids, and his usual sarcastic bullshit, but every christmas song, familiar laugh, and passing glance brings him right back to you. he tells himself not to think about you. he thinks about you anyway. and spending christmas in the same room as the girl he once promised forever to? yeah. steve harrington is completely, utterly screwed.

The One Standing Beside You

You’ve always been the person Steve Harrington could count on. The one who stayed, the one who understood him. But when old feelings and new ones collide at the Snow Ball, you’re left wondering if Steve will ever see you as more than a friend.
