cute mungrove things:

they both wake up grumpy with messy hair after cuddling and fucking all night, and they skip breakfast in favour of having coffee and a cigarette

every passenger Billy’s ever had in his Camaro has always complained about the music and the volume, but Eddie shoves a Metallica cassette into the deck and turns it up as loud as it can go as his boyfriend drives them to the goddamn grocery store, headbanging the entire time

once they actually start dating and calling each other their boyfriend, Billy wears Eddie’s leather jacket and Eddie takes Billy’s jean jacket (and adds a patch or two or three)

Billy isn’t into D&D like his boyfriend is, but he does love it when Eddie gets super passionate as he tells Billy about his newest campaign

they don’t hold hands, they link their pinkies together

Eddie loves kissing Billy’s hands and up to vein in his bicep while Billy loves brushing Eddie’s hair aside to kiss his sensitive neck

when they argue and Billy’s temper flares, he’s learned to lay on the floor and count to ten - and Eddie joins him every time, matching their breathing before they begin sorting the issue

they fooled around in the back of Billy’s Camaro once and Eddie got a bad cramp in his leg so now they hook up in his van instead

Eddie hates going to basketball games and pep rallies but he goes solely to watch Billy and quietly cheer him on

they sleep with just a sheet as a blanket because Billy runs so hot

Eddie gives Billy one of his rings after they first say ‘I love you’

OK but imagine Steve and Eddie vibin in the pool while Billy is on guard duty. He pulls out his phone and starts recording them, singing "two bros chillin' in the hot tub five feet apart cause they're not gay" but then Steve turns around and screams "BITCH YOU'RE DATING BOTH OF US"

Eddie: Billy, you are a great boyfriend, best friend, lifeguard, mechanic, and you’re so jacked that you have muscles on your back

Billy: Everyone has back muscles, Eddie

Eddie: Nuh-uh, my back looks like the inside of a spoon

Billy: No. I am princess.

Metal Sandwich. Omegaverse. Stress-heats. Parental Abuse. Rated E.

Omega!BIlly who is collared by Neil in an attempt to 'tame' him.

Omega!Billy who fights against it, switching between being feral and cowed, when he's exhausted.

Omega!Billy, who runs away, and pays someone to get the collar off anyway they can.

Mated Alpha!Eddie and Omega!Steve, who just so happen to be in the cafe that Billy stumbles into a week later, hungry, cold, and lost, and who both recognise the scar around Billy's neck.

Omega!Steve approaching Billy, offering him a place to stay, handling his feral energy seamlessly with his bitchiness and honey scent.

Omega!Billy desperately wanting to say no, but being unable to a free hot shower, a warm place to sleep, and a decent meal, having burned through too much of his money.

Omega!Billy's first instinct when catching Eddie's (divine) leather scent being to hiss, snarl, instead of being soothed by it. Billy cursing his omega biology when, even drenched in his alpha's scent, Steve's purr can get him to relax enough to fall asleep in a makeshift nest in their guest bedroom.

Omega!Billy going into a stress heat right there, having relaxed for the first time since he ran away.

Omega!Billy needing Eddie in the same room, needing his scent, his rumbling reassurances, but snarling in terror if Eddie comes anywhere near him. Alpha!Eddie respecting that, murmuring to him, making him as comfortable as possible through Steve, who brings him food, water, heat toys, clothes of Eddie's.

Omega!Billy who barely survives his heat without a knot, and is weak and exhausted for at least a week afterwards.

Omega!Billy who spends the week watching the way Eddie dotes on Steve. Who sees how, in most ways, Steve is an equal to Eddie. Who can't help but hear the happy trills, purrs, and yips that bubble through Steve at all hours, and who gets dangerously close to experiencing something like rejection sickness, because he wants that so much.

Omega!Billy who, one night, wakes up from a nightmare about Neil and smells caramel and marshmallow coming from Eddie and Steve's room, and knows they're giving off a comforting scent just for him.

Omega!Billy who gets up 'just to get a glass of water', and finds their door already open, so he doesn't even have to knock.

Omega!Billy who, slowly, eyes to the floor, let's Steve's trills draw him closer, until he's climbing into their nest, and curling into Steve's side.

Omega!Billy, who still flinches when Eddie's arm drapes across the pair of them, but who breathes properly for the first time in months when it just rests there, heavy and soothing. That sleep is the best he's ever had.

Omega!Billy, who's strength gradually returns, and who realizes he doesn't want to leave. Omega!Steve who, knowing this, and knowing Billy would absolutely bolt for the hills, keeps giving him jobs to do that he knows Billy wouldn't abandon.

Omega!Billy who watches Eddie work around the house. Alpha!Eddie who always notices his wary shadow, and leaves room for Billy to be involved.

Omega!Billy, who starts crawling into their bed more and more, until he rolls over when Steve gets up to go to the toilet, and finds himself nestled against Eddie. Omega!Billy who finds he doesn't mind, when he wakes up.

Omega!Billy who realizes he's getting increasingly slicker around the two, particularly in the morning. And hearing their shower sex isn't helping.

Omega!Billy who has the best orgasm of his life when Eddie offers for him to join in, or even just watch first, if that's too much, and realizes they're both down for anything.

Omega!Billy who loves pegging his Alpha, and taking care of his other omega mate. But better yet, who loves finally trusting an Alpha to take care of him, too.

Just Omega!Billy who gradually, with lots of patience (and a lot more sass), finds a family.

TW physical abuse (not between Eddie and Billy). Season 2. Slight fisticuffs between Billy and Eddie. Billy breaks down. Angst. Hurt/Comfort. I will forever be interested in what it takes to make men cry.

What if Neil gives Billy a Very Bad Day, and Billy ends up breaking down somewhere. What if Eddie can-smell-a-stray-a-mile-away Munson turns up, just so happening to see much to much for Billy's comfort. Billy tries to get physical, because of course he does, but Eddie's been around the block and manages to wind him, giving them long enough to calm the hell down.

Eddie's good at talking people around, at calming people down, and offering distractions. Unable to tolerate anything vaguely kind, Billy opts for the easiest way to make him feel good, having clocked Eddie within hours of starting at Hawkins High.

It's quick and dirty, and Eddie's pretty sure he's only satisfied because the whole thing is so hot he comes in his pants, Billy's definitely focusing more on his own pleasure. But he doesn't mind. A fuck is a fuck, and it's satisfying knowing that Billy looks more like himself because of him.

They don't hang around after that, really, and Eddie's not even sure that he's not going to get punched. But when the camaro drives away and he's unscathed, he's certain they won't interact again outside of the occasional drug deal.

But of course, things go differently. In school, Billy either pretends he doesn't exist, or sneers with the crowd. But outside of school? He pops up more than expected.

He's his usual charming self, demanding and demeaning, and more often than not, Eddie sends him packing. He's always been a bit defiant, and some asshole bully isn't going to push him around just because he wants a quick fuck. But Billy likes the challenge, so he keeps coming back.

It's on one of those days when they're circling each other, jibing back and forth, that Eddie realizes he can see bruises on Billy's skin. His mouth works before he can think better of it, asking about them, and Billy's temper instantly flares thanks to self-preservation instincts. Eddie ends up pinned to the wall with Billy's arm at his neck, mouth working overtime to get him out of it. But Billy doesn't want to hear it, just sneers a threat and stalks off.

He doesn't pop up as much after that.

Then, one day, Eddie's driving around listening to his music, enjoying haunting the suburbs with it, when the sound of breaking glass gets his attention. Turning his music down, he pulls over just down from Billy's house and realizes there's a massive domestic going on. Yelling. Hitting. Throwing things. The lot. And judging from the curtain twitching going on, he's not the one eavesdropping.

The slam of a door rings out, and someone-no, as Billy-hastily exits, still being followed by yells. He tries to fling the camaro open, but mustn't have the keys. After staring back at the house, he shoves a hand in his hair and starts marching out to the street, the picture of despair.

Even from across the street, Eddie can see his rumpled clothes, the way he's limping, ever so slightly, and his hand hits the horn before he can think about it.

That's how Billy Hargrove, cheeks tear-streaked, ends up in his van.

They don't talk. Billy's far too keyed up to do anything but yell or hit things. So Eddie drives him to the junkyard, ignoring Billy's confused, frustrated looks. Tossing him a crowbar, Eddie finds a car that hasn't had it's windows smashed yet and goes to town, before standing back and raising an eyebrow at Billy.

He doesn't need telling twice, whaling on everything in sight as Eddie sits on the hood of his van, smoking, letting the hits become less and less frequent. The grunts wetter. Until, with one final, echoing roar, he breaks.

Slowly, carefully, Eddie wraps him in his arms, waiting when Billy tenses, and murmuring reassurances when Billy sobs that he hates Neil. That he'll kill him one day.

For a long time, they stay in the back of Eddie's van, Billy just letting himself be held. And if he drifts off to sleep a little, well Eddie makes sure to keep running his hands through Billy's hair.

The sun is on the verge of setting by the time Billy wakes up, and he sighs, knowing he has to go back. With a strong sniff, he starts smoothing over the cracks of his mask.

"You sure you don't need to be checked out by urgent care, or something?" Eddie asks.

"Nah. That prick couldn't break anything if he tried."

It's a lie. They both know it. They ignore it anyway.

The ride back is silent, aside from the growl of the van, and out of the corner of his eye, Eddie watches Billy retreat into himself. They get to the corner of Billy's street too fast.

"You should probably stop here." He mutters. He doesn't need Neil realizing he's queer, too. It hurts when Eddie does.

"My uncle works lots of nights at the plant," Eddie murmurs a minute later, when he still hasn't moved. "If you ever..."

He just nods. Refuses to look at him, else he'll want to do something embarrassing. Like kiss him.

Finally, with a 'see you around, Munson,' he hauls himself out of the van.

Things are different, after that. He doesn't socialize with him in school, or anything, but Eddie's suddenly got a bit more protection, Billy diverting them off the path as subtly and best he can. And when their paths cross outside of school, he's still arrogant, but he's also... actually charming. When the internalised homophobia isn't getting the better of him.

That's how their relationship starts. Accidental (and then not so accidental) meetings leading to quick fucks, stolen moments at the quarry, the junkyard again, anywhere quiet. And eventually they graduate to hanging out in Eddie's trailer when Wayne isn't around.
