Sneaking a Peek - CH 1-2-3
Tumblr media
This is my second fic written for the @strangerthingsreversebigbang!
I'm so lucky because I got the opportunity to work on @imfinereallyy beautiful art!
It was very fun plotting with them! And I'm glad that not only did she trust me with her art but made 3 different banners! (And I'm going to share them all because they are so beautiful!)
So a big thank you to her and a big thank you to my amazing beta @hawkinsleather who did an amazing job while working on their own fic at the same time!
As always thank you to the @strangerthingsreversebigbang Discord Server for their constant support and their friendship.
Steve Harrington's face has always been on the most well-known magazines' cover, but since he broke up with the famous actress Nancy Wheeler he has done his best to avoid the public eye. Or so he thinks... until a picture of him kissing a mysterious boy becomes viral.
READ ON AO3
A little snippet:
“Steven, stop it, ok? I don’t have time to waste. I called to find out the name of the boy you were kissing last night.” His mom says, annoyed. Steve turns toward the mirror and finally sees what caught his attention before: on the lower side of his neck, barely hidden from his t-shirt, there is a big blue hickey. Fuck! “How… how do you know?” “You were at the New York Fashion Week afterparty, right? Well, you know how people are. They love to take pictures and share them on their socials, don’t they? And guess what? No one cares about the stupid boys that were drinking some fancy cocktail they don’t even know how to pronounce, but you were in their picture. You, and a black-haired boy, and either one of you was in need of some CPR or the two of you were kissing. Hard.”

Sneaking a Peek - CH 4-5-6
Tumblr media
My fic for @strangerthingsreversebigbang based on the @imfinereallyy beautiful art (who also did this amazing banner!)
READ ON AO3
Here a little snippet
Three months before the New York Fashion Week afterparty When the producers call Steve to ask him to join the premiere of their movie, Steve's first instinct is to say: "No, thanks." He has absolutely no intention to be seen on the red carpet with Nancy, who is one of the protagonists of the movie, and his ex-girlfriend.  They are on good terms, or at least they try to be. Anyway he’s not eager to spend the night with her and Jonathan, the cameraman and now her new boyfriend, and nobody can blame him for that, not even Robin. Nevertheless, his best friend decided to play the manager card and push him to attend the stupid premiere, and guess what? He is getting ready for the stupid premiere. As soon as the black limousine gets closer to the movie theater, Steve sees that the place is crowded. From the moment Steve saw the script he knew it was going to be a hit at the box office, but he never thought so many people would come to the premiere of a movie based on a tabletop role playing game.  Well, it seems he was wrong.  Really wrong.

Second Chances Mixtape - Part 3/5 1985 (remastered)
Tumblr media
My fic for @strangerthingsreversebigbang based on the beautiful art made by @maikaartwork
READ ON AO3
Here a little snippet
Dustin stares at Wayne. “So? Do you know what day Eddie was talking about?” Wayne nods “Yeah. The twentieth of May, 1971.” “Are you sure? I mean, a long time has passed, you could be confused about the day and…” Wayne sighs “Yeah, I remember that day very well, there was a little fire at the plant and nobody was allowed to leave the area until the firefighters made sure that we were fine. When I got back home, Nora was crying and a policeman was yanking Eddie by the arm.” He takes a deep breath. “When you have a foster kid and you almost lost him, I can assure you, you remember that day really well.” Dustin blushes, lowering his eyes, while Steve puts a hand on Dustin’s shoulder. “That’s great news. We have to find a way to get back to May 1971 and get Eddie back.” “It doesn’t make sense,” Nancy interrupts, holding a book in her hands. “It says here that to get back in time, it would require a great amount of energy, if Vecna had that kind of power why didn’t he use it before?” “Well, maybe he needed to complete his ritual,” Dustin insists. “There was a great amount of energy that night! When Max died the ground split open! Did you forget that?” Wayne suddenly stands up. “The kid! Did she…” Nancy puts a hand on Wayne’s shoulder shaking her head. “She is in a coma, but she’s alive.” The man takes a big breath of relief while Nancy closes the book and looks at the others. “There are still things I don’t understand: why were the two Eddies swapped when we weren’t? I mean… we were in the Upside Down too,” she says, sitting on Steve’s coffee table. She bites her lips, a bad habit she’s always had and Steve feels the temptation to stop her and caress those swollen lips, but he can’t. He’s had his heart broken more than once, and he is not sure he will survive even more humiliation.

Second Chances Mixtape - Part 2/5: 1971
Tumblr media
My fic for @strangerthingsreversebigbang based on the beautiful art made by @maikaartwork
READ ON AO3
Here a little snippet
The shriek of the bats makes Eddie’s veins tremble. On the other side of the portal, Dustin is yelling his name, begging him to move. Eddie takes the makeshift rope and turns toward the Upside Down version of his home. In the farthest corner, Wayne’s cot is silently staring at him. Eddie’s grip on the rope gets looser; he can’t do that, he can’t go back to the Right Side Up knowing that those fucking bats will follow him, and he can’t put in danger his Uncle who is probably clocking out at the plant, ready to come back home. Eddie knows that he is no hero, he never hesitated to run away, and he is more than ready to change his name and forget everything about all this fucking nightmare, but he can’t disappoint Wayne. Not again. Eddie must stay in that stupid bigoted town for Wayne, the only person who always believed in him no matter what, and if he really wants a town to get back to he has to fight those monsters. One day, when everyone will have forgotten about Vecna’s murders, he will write a book about it, and he will be the fucking protagonist! Not Steve “the Hair” Harrington, not Nancy “Guns” Wheeler. Him: Eddie the Freak. God, the world needs a hero called Eddie the Freak. “Eddie, stop! Eddie, stop!” Dustin yells again, and Eddie smiles at him, it’s a sad smile and Dustin must sense something because he asks, “Eddie, what are you doing?”. “I'm buying more time,” he replies before he cuts the makeshift rope and runs out of the trailer.

Second Chances Mixtape - Part 4/5 1971 (remastered)

I'm having an incredibly awful day…. Thankfully there is my little fic that I love to pieces that brings me some joy! My fic for @strangerthingsreversebigbang based on the beautiful art made by @maikaartwork
READ ON AO3
Here a little snippet
When Eddie gets back Steve is angry both with him and with Maria. “What happened?” Eddie asks the woman while the kid keeps glaring at both of them with his little arms crossed in front of him. “Well, you left, and I bathed him.” Eddie frowns. “And he is angry because you bathed him? Steve, you don’t want to smell bad, do you?” The kid glares at him. “My bat is gone! And you weren’t here to give me another!” he yells, and Eddie sighs. “I’m here now, I can draw you a new one.” He tries to calm down the kid, but Steve shakes his head. “You left! Like everyone else!” “Steve, I’m sorry I left you. I had some errands to do, but now I’m back. I can draw a new bat for you, and we can watch television and eat ice cream all night long,” the dark-haired boy tries to convince him. “You are like everyone else! I thought you were special! You were my star friend!” the kid screams and for the first time ever, being like everyone else is not something Eddie was willing to be.

Sneeking a Peek - CH 13-14-15
Tumblr media
This is the last update of my @strangerthingsreversebigbang fic inspired by @imfinereallyy beautiful art.
We met halfway through the event and I'm so glad that I had the opportunity to work with her! She was such a great partner and worked very hard on our project! Thank you so so so much, it was a wonderful experience!
That said, my fic it's now complete! Thanks to everyone who read it! I hope you enjoyed it!

a little snippet of the chapter that finally gains its E rating!
Eddie loves sex. He has had a lot of sex since he moved to New York and he is not ashamed of himself or of what he likes. Still, the idea of being naked in bed with another person makes him feel vulnerable. Especially if that person is Steve, whom he has had the biggest crush on since forever and who, for some unknown reason, seems to like him back. The model is lying on the sheets, his eyes half closed and his hair spread out on the pillow like an angel with a chestnut halo. “You are so beautiful.” Eddie whispers, crawling on the bed and boxing Steve’s head between his arms. “So sweet,” he murmurs, planting a gentle kiss on his forehead. “And soft, just for me.”  Steve holds his breath and Eddie can feel him tremble under him, so he brushes his knuckles on Steve’s cheek. “Don’t be scared. I’m going to make you feel so good,” he murmurs, before lowering himself and kissing him tenderly on the lips. It’s wrong. He shouldn’t fuck Steve when he knows that in a few hours, he is going to take a plane and leave the US for months. But when he sees Steve lying relaxed on the sheets, his brain stops working. Beautiful is not enough to describe him: he is so sweet and cute, and sexy, and Eddie wants him so much it hurts. He wants to kiss him senseless and bask in the quiet moans that escape Steve’s mouth when he gently strips him and brushes the delicate skin with his callous fingers. He kneels at his feet to untie his shoes, take off the socks, the pants, and the shirt, and watches him dressed only in a pair of tented black boxers while Steve blushes so sweetly.

Sneaking a Peek - CH 7-8-9
Tumblr media
My fic for @strangerthingsreversebigbang based on the @imfinereallyy beautiful art (who also did this amazing banner!)
READ ON AO3
Here a little snippet
It’s a date.  But not like a date date.  It’s a friendship date. Or at least that’s what Steve keeps repeating to himself while changing clothes. On his bed, there are at least five different shirts and three pairs of trousers. He has no idea where Eddie is going to take him so he has no idea what he is supposed to wear; his wardrobe is full of designer clothes that fit his body perfectly, but they don’t feel like him at all.  Should he wear something comfy? But what if Eddie is going to take him to some fancy place? He can’t show up in a pair of joggers and his favorite sweater. Steve takes his phone and his fingers find Eddie’s number easily: he is hidden under Pizza Hut, as he did when he was a teenager and his mom kept snooping around his things, especially his phone, telling him that he was too young to understand the danger that his position held. Now that Robin is his manager he shouldn’t be scared anymore of anyone snooping around, but some habits are hard to die. He is not a teenager anymore, he can wear what the hell he wants to and he can date anyone he wants! Date. Because it is a date, isn’t it?
