📁Hawkins’ Hottest Manny

♡ A Stranger Things Limited Series, from Misha’s Masterlist Library. 📼 ALL Episodes (+infodump file) below

☾⋆⁺₊ Welcome to the full series masterlist. ⋆⁺₊☾

Nanny!Steve Harrington x baby girl Prior King Steve turned unpaid babysitter turned full-time nanny to a newborn baby girl. Playboy turned protector, and eventual love story when Steve meets someone who finally helps him move on from Nancy. But the real love story is the paternal love he shares with little Mia Browne. 18+

🍼 SUMMARY: Steve Harrington had no clue that taking a beating from Billy Hargrove and protecting those kids in the tunnels full of demodogs… would make him go from pretty playboy to protector.

After the Starcourt Mall collapses and Hawkins calls it an “act of God,” the former king of high school hallways accidentally falls into the best job of his life: nanny to an infant baby girl, born into a ridiculously wealthy family that barely seems to notice her. Hired through pure small-town grapevine gossip and vouching moms who swear he’s responsible as hell, Steve goes from flunkout fuqboi Scoops Ahoy dingus to full-time “manny” faster than he can even process it. Mia Browne becomes his routine, his calm, and the only place his nightmares don’t follow him, turning him soft and fiercely overprotective in ways that confuse the hell out of him. While he’s still carrying a torch for Nancy Wheeler and rebuilding his life alongside his new best friend Robin, and looking out for the kids who roped into all this mess… Steve quietly discovers a purpose that feels a lot like family.

Translation? Hawkins hottest babysitter grows up by rocking six pounds of innocent little magic to sleep — and ends up completely whipped for it.

♡ AUTHOR’S NOTE: There's nothing I love more than when an insecure playboy of a heterosexual male, who's got both mommy and daddy issues, gets humbled by life and becomes a protector... then family man.

Especially if said male is Steve Harrington. <3

As always, this went from being a 45k+ word one-shot to an extended entity of its own. Same thing happened with "Tell Me What You Need" (TMWYN), it just became far bigger than I expected and expanded into a multi-part fic. Granted, this won't be like OSWDLS or MERCY — where's is a multi-chapter, 4-book saga. This work of mine simply lives in its own little snow globe on my self-indulgent library shelf.

this series is forever dedicated to my pen pal && uni sister @moonlightdreamer111 ♡

inspired by this post by @scoupsahoy

Eddie died. Max is in a coma. Lucas and Erica are traumatized. And Steve Harrington is crying in the cold tub bloody, dirty, and clutching Munson's battle vest.

It was one mistake. It was a lapse of judgement on Steve's part. He just got tired of being a babysitter once and look where it got him. He killed them, he was the reason they died. Max wasn't supposed to be in a coma. She was supposed to be alive making snarky remarks of how close they were from being dead or how Vecna deserved to get his ass whooped by a sawed off shotgun. She was supposed to be here, held by Lucas, held by Steve.

Eddie... he wasn't supposed to be involved in this. He wasn't supposed to be bait. He wasn't supposed to be a hero. He was supposed to be alive, to be with Dustin, to be with Hellfire. It was a lapse of judgement. It was the moment when Steve knew he'd lost a friend was when he took Eddie to his back and ran as fast as he could. He couldn't even care less about the vines. He just had to keep Eddie alive by some miracle. But he didn't. If... if only he'd run fast enough. Maybe if he didn't trip, maybe Eddie is still alive. Maybe Eddie would be back in his Uncle's arms again.

But for now, he sobbed for their loss.

----

“Steve, you need to eat.” Nancy gently cooed. He has been staying beside Max for almost a month now. Just alternating between sleeping and breaking down. The Party had took turns on leaving him some food, sometimes the containers would be empty, sometimes it hasn't been touched. Robin has been worried over Steve. He already lost his job at Family Video. He's already so thin. He never left Max's side unless he's sure she'd be safe but he's never gone longer than 2 hours no matter how much they force him to go home and take a nap.

Those hours, he'd go home take a freezing shower to calm his nerves and if he feels like it, he'd snatch an apple then hit the road to go to Eddie's headstone. He paid for the funeral, the casket, the service, everything. He felt responsible for not being able to save the only one person who genuinely thought Steve Harrington is a good person. The only person who showed that someone actually believes in him. For Eddie Munson, this is the least he can do. He'd left the jacket on his headstone, washed but not truly clean. Steve assumed Eddie would look at the bloodstains as ‘very metal.’

‘He always comes back.’ Dustin thought. Steve was great at bouncing back from the horrors of the Upside Down but not this time. He knows how Steve cared for all of them, and losing Max has been his breaking point. Dustin barely recognizes Steve anymore. The glassy, tired eyes, the thin line of his lips, the dark bags under his eyes, even his hair lost all it poof. If Steve Harrington was drained before, he's devoid of color now.

Robin tried to talk to him, to tell him that its alright. That he didn't have any fault in this. That he was also a victim too. Yet no matter how much she tried, Steve wasn't having any of it. It shocked her to her core with how much Steve blamed himself for everything. He never dived deep to any of his troubles but what he said was enough for Robin to know that his bestfriend is spiraling down and has always been trying to hide everything in a smile.

“Steve, Dustin needs a lift.” it's still one the responsibilities of his that he remembers to do. He just nodded softly and took his keys before nodding to Robin about Max. He hasn't talked after the whole incident, just quiet, thinking, hoping. Dustin babbled the whole ride about Suzie and school, the kid was careful not to let anything slip about Eddie or any of the Hellfire guys, specially some of Gareth's news about Uncle Wayne.

Steve hasn't talked to any adult, not even giving an alibi or a statement. The police figured he's too shocked to even talk, The Harrington's paid a hefty sum just to keep Steve of the newspaper and the rumors.

As soon as they went to Dustin's house, Steve was greeted by Claudia Henderson with a warm hug. it wasn't too much, but it wasn't formal either. Just like a warm hug from a mom seeing his new son's friend. He almost teared up by the gesture but he held it in. He nodded and almost walked back to his car before Claudia held his wrist gently and sat him down in one of their couches. He felt the couch sink as she sat beside him too.

“How are you doing, Steven?” if he answered the question, it would be the first conversation he's had after everything but maybe Claudia was the best person to start all over. His head hung low trying to hide how easily his eyes starts to water.

“I'm doing great, Mrs. Henderson” he said without even looking in her eye. He can get used to this. Just lying to keep everyone from knowing he's suffering because they don't deserve to know. They're already happy. He's just a liability waiting to happen.

“You’re an good child, Steven. I don't think I could see anyone taking care of Dustin like you do. But you have to take care of yourself too we know you're hurting too. Dustin knows.” she took his hand and held it. He couldn't take it anymore, the walls he'd put up for the past month has been breached. Steve let his tears fall has he tried to hide it with his free hand.

“I couldn't save them, they should've been here instead of me. I was supposed to be the one who dies. I was supposed to have it under control. I shouldn't have left them for a while.” his voice was hoarse as he said this. Claudia squeezed his hand and enveloped him in a warm hug as Steve cried on her shoulder. She knew he was suffering but she didn't know he blamed himself for everything let alone wished he'd be the one who dies. She let him sob while rubbing his back.

“You're a good person. They wouldn't make it out alive if it wasn't for you. Don't be too hard on yourself. You saved them, even Max.” she said as she held him. He tried stopping the tears from falling but he can't. He just sobbed quietly.

“Thank you.”

I will give it a try Teacher or professional

Steve au. This man is so good with kids

today is multiverse monday! send me any au you can think of :)

set in a daycare!!

--

"Honey," Steve ducks into the nursery, a crying toddler in his arms, "She wants mama."

"Sweetheart," You croon, giving the baby you're trying to coax to sleep a teething toy to play with while you step away, "Mama will be back really soon!"

It's a lie, not that she needs to know. Her mother won't be back for six hours, and she thinks ten minutes is one.

"'Wan' mama now!" She insists through a sob, little hands trying to rub angrily at her eyes, "Please! Please, jus' call my mama!"

"Hey, hey!" Steve grabs her tiny fists, tearing them away from her sensitive, teary eyes, "Be gentle, sweetheart. If you hurt your eyes, you can't watch cartoons anymore."

This gets her attention. She looks cautiously up at Steve through her tears, "Really?"

"Really." Steve nods, face solemn, "Not even Strawberry Shortcake."

"Oh." She supplies lamely, voice thick with anguish. "Okay."

"How about," You offer, stepping forward to smooth some of her dark hair out of her face, "You and Steve go watch Strawberry Shortcake right now. He does an excellent Blueberry Muffin impression." You elbow Steve, who mentally prepares himself to imitate a children's cartoon for the next hour.

"Really?" Her eyes shine with hope, mixing with the unshed line of tears at her lower lid.

Steve is going to gripe to you later about how his throat hurts from making his voice so high, but he smiles at her with nothing but adoration now, "Yeah, Jackie, I do. Should we eat blueberry muffins while we watch?"

He refers to the package of storebought treats you'd picked up yesterday. She nods vigorously, woes forgotten, "I want two!"

"One," You insist, turning back to the infant in the crib you'd been working with, "Maybe you can have another after your nap."

You hear Steve murmuring something in her ear, then she giggles, and when they walk to the tv room, it's with two muffins in her hands.

Pokemon au

TemporalCoffin:

What Pokemon would Steve and Eddie like? I wanna hear everyone's opinions

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:24 AM

My time has come

Eddie is literally just that one gym leader in sword and shield, Piers, and that’s a dark type gym I see him with a lot of dark types and ghost types

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:26 AM

Omg youre right he is piers

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:27 AM

HE IS PIERS

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:27 AM

I had this thought cos I saw a meme sketch of Eddie wanting a loudred so he can have a pokemon as am amp

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:27 AM

Omg that’s incredible

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:27 AM

It was just him sobbing and begging his whimsur to evolve

Hang on I'll find it again

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:29 AM

For Steve it’s hard to say because instinct says he’d love fighting types but idk if that fits him exactly. I think Steve would have a mix of types. He’s a family man, specifically a found family man, his Pokémon team isn’t filled with one specific type, he has a mix of all sorts that work well together as a team 😌

Click through there's a second panel of him admiring robins pokemon

nyanmao — Yesterday at 2:30 AM

noivern would be a good fit for Eddie I think, bat and sound based. Also it’s dragon type and like dungeons an dragons and yeah

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:30 AM

Omg Robin with a gothorita 😭😭😭

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:30 AM

He'd be torn between basically doing fantasy football with his pokemon, or like being obsessively involved with the nurseries cos he likes the lil babies

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:31 AM

STEVE ISNT EVEN A POKEMON TRAINER HES A POKEMON BREEDER YES 100%

Steve is a Pokémon breeder but is also Nurse Joy

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:31 AM

I think Eddie tries to teach a Jigglypuff to do metal vocals, purely cos I think it's funny

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:32 AM

Eddie gets tired of it eventually because it isn’t working and just shoves him onto Steve and when he comes back to pick him up Steve is like “sorry, he’s my child now, you can’t have him back”

Eddie 100% would have an Obstagoon tho

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:33 AM

Omg he would get a toxtricity

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:34 AM

HE WOULD ABSOLUTELY

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:34 AM

When you need a new band member so you get a pokemon lmao

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:34 AM

Exactly!!

But also I love the idea of Steve being the type of trainer that does that thing where people will do themed pokemon teams? He gets a team of all the ones that look the most like dogs. He has a dog team

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:35 AM

Eddie: sorry fellas I'm replacing you all with pokemon

Corroded Coffin:....WHAT

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:36 AM

I think Steve would have a rockruff 1000% percent

And probably Yamper as well

I know I’m mixing pokemon regions probably but I don’t care

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:36 AM

Who cares international travel exists

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:36 AM

You right

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:37 AM

Eddie would be a good gym leader cos he can put up a challenge but he likes seeing kids succeed too 😭

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:37 AM

His rockruff evolves into Lycanroc and Eddie is like “THATS SO FUCKING COOL”

OH EDDIE HAS AN IMPIDIMP FOR SURE

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:38 AM

Omg Steve would probably do those pokemon talent shows

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:38 AM

OMG THE POKEMON BEAUTY PAGENT THINGS YES

nyanmao — Yesterday at 2:39 AM

Pokémon breeder Steve would probably breed starter Pokémon for the kids

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:39 AM

WAIT POKEMON PROFESSOR STEVE

He’s the one that gives the kids their starters 😭😭😭😭

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:40 AM

Not me getting emotional over pokemon

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:40 AM

I will always get emotional over pokemon

nyanmao — Yesterday at 2:41 AM

he also cooks Pokémon treats like poke blocks or poffins for everyone :luv: :luv:

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:41 AM

I’m just disappointed that I can’t decide who in the party would have a leafeon I need one of them to have a leafeon. Leafeon is my baby

(Nancy has psychic type pokemon btw that’s my hc I know this was originally about Steve and Eddie but I wanted to throw it out there)

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:43 AM

Oh I'm all for all the pokemon hcs

What would Robin have, I feel like she'd go on aesthetics

The stats are garbage but they look cool

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:44 AM

Yeah I think Robin is another one that doesn’t have a team based on type

I really loved Robin having a gothorita in that tweet, she’d have hatterene I think too

(Is it obvious yet that most of my pokemon knowledge comes from sword and shield?)

nyanmao — Yesterday at 2:46 AM

she has a vanillite that she names ahoy

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:46 AM

I’ve played other pokemon games, I’ve played X, I’ve played omega ruby, I’ve played Sun, but sword and shield has been the only one I’ve played more than once

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:46 AM

FUCK YOURE SO RIGHT YES

nyanmao — Yesterday at 2:46 AM

OH AND STEVE HAS ONE NAMED SCOOPS

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:46 AM

YES

And the two of them, for reasons neither Steve nor Robin can figure out, the two of them hate each other. They try to get their pokemon to play together and Scoops and Ahoy will not go near each other

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:50 AM

That's hilarious

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:50 AM

Okay I’m going to map out the thought process I just had because I’m about to say something that might sound buckwild. But like modern au right and they’re just playing the games, but Robin gets into like all the legendary pokemon and then I started thinking about how Robin would do research and come up with theories for the game (and others probably) and that led me to the hc that Robin would probably watch game theory in a modern au and truthfully no one can change my mind

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:50 AM

Oh you know who does have fighting types? Max

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:51 AM

Yes Max 1000% has fighting types

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:51 AM

Shes really into battling

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:52 AM

Max just casually becomes the new pokemon champion of the region

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:52 AM

Steve's like look at my cool cute new pokemon and max is like I bet mine could beat it up

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:52 AM

She’s like “you guys were fucking around and getting your pokemon to play games, I came to WIN”

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:53 AM

Max plays the way I play, only attack moves nothing else

The party is over there doing stats and getting the best debuffs and buffs and she's like "hey nerds check out my all punching team"

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:55 AM

Steve’s like “Look at this cute little pokemon I just got!” And Max is like “I have a level 100 Machamp”

I also only really play with attack moves 😂😂 I’m like “why do I need a move that decreases enemy stats when I can just punch and kick them until they’re gone?”

Surprisingly though persona 5 has helped me start using stat buffs and debuffs more 😂

nyanmao — Yesterday at 2:57 AM

I played like that my entire childhood I don’t think I even ever realized stat effect moves did stuff lmao

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:57 AM

Seriously it’s just like “y’all are using strategy? No I hit the thing with my most powerful attack immediately and it’s dead in two rounds. Next”

nyanmao — Yesterday at 2:58 AM

“Scoops Ahoy Employees Steve&Robin has challenged you to a battle!!”

and it’s just 2 vanillites that only attack each other

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:58 AM

This is also why I don’t think I could ever play a healer or a healing focused character Im like “no! Let me do maximum damage!!!!”

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 2:59 AM

Pretty sure Eddie would combust if he saw Steve with a bunch of baby pokemon

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 2:59 AM

Omg breeder Steve with all baby pokemon crawling all over him in the nursery and Eddie is just like “fuck, fuck, be cool. Just be cool!”

Omg that’s how Eddie gets an Impidimp. Steve hatches a little Impidimp from an egg and gives him to Eddie because he thinks he’ll like it and Eddie keeps it in his team forever after that. He considers keeping it from evolving bc it reminds him of seeing Steve with a little tiny newly hatched level one Impidimp sitting on his shoulder pulling on his hair

nyanmao — Yesterday at 3:05 AM

Someone tells him they saw Steve buying a shit ton of Pokémon supplies and stuff and he’s like “lmao it’s king Steve, he’s probably some meat head fighting type gym leader or something” until he sees steve at the local daycare with an apron carrying a happiny and a cleffa

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 3:06 AM

Eddie ends up with a lvl 100 impidimp and Steve's like oh why'd you never have this one evolve?

Buff Muggin (Alpha Porn Roach) — Yesterday at 3:06 AM

Steve harmonizes with his jigglypuffs pass it on

And somewhere, Eddie collapses to the ground

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 3:07 AM

Steve with an all Jigglypuff team

Omg Steve with like a baby carrier full of eggs he's trying to hatch, just wheeling them around town

nyanmao — Yesterday at 3:11 AM

people make snide comments about Steve and his baby Pokémon and how he’s gone soft and Steve usually just brushes it off until someone hurts either one of his kids or one of the baby Pokémon and then he throws out a lvl 100 kangaskhan

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 3:20 AM

Who's the nurse joys in this situation

𝕄𝕚𝕣𝕒𝕓𝕖𝕝𝕝𝕒 [Ella Ella] ✨ — Yesterday at 4:56 AM

Here for the Pokémon AU :loveteeth:

TemporalCoffin — Yesterday at 7:02 AM

The party fights as a group and gang up on poor solo trainers just trying to walk down the path

Max still wins that 1v4

kesbird — Yesterday at 10:02 AM

I like the idea that Steve accidentally befriended a legendary so it’s just Steve with a bunch of eggs around town carrying cleffa because she cries if she’s put down and someone comes to bully Steve and the Pokémon and suddenly like fucking mew two or one of the legendary birds or something is there because Steve healed them once and now they would kill for him

Gorgeousgreymatter — Yesterday at 10:05 AM

I'm obsessed with forest nymph friend of Pokémon Steve

kesbird — Yesterday at 10:06 AM

Like he just has a bunch of neighborhood Pokémon that follow him around sometimes and one just happens to be like Entei or some shit like that

Dustin would have a clink clank and will would have a smeargle

Gorgeousgreymatter — Yesterday at 10:11 AM

Lmao Steve will all the biggest badass Pokémon that just follow him around for snacks and scritchies and also to destroy anyone who tries to fuck around and find out gives me life hahaha

kesbird — Yesterday at 10:13 AM

Like fucking Tommy tries something and Steve who has himself been adopted by the whole damn forest by this point is like Tommy for your own self preservation I’m asking you PLEASE reconsider

Gorgeousgreymatter — Yesterday at 10:19 AM

Steve doesn't even want to catch them all he just wants to be left in peace he begs lol

kesbird — Yesterday at 10:20 AM

All he wants to do is bake and look after his legion of Pokéchildren like is that too much to ask

Oh but wild pokemon parents coming to drop their kids off with Steve for a little bit so that they can relax is SO CUTE

rat (babygirl Steddie truther) — Yesterday at 10:21 AM

Omg soccer mom steve the Pokémon version?

Gorgeousgreymatter — Yesterday at 10:26 AM

People keep coming to challenge him to battle because they keep hearing about his legendary Pokémon and how he's "never lost" (its just assholes showing up and trying to fight him and he has to be like no please they'll murder you and people just think he's some unflappable badass.

Gorgeousgreymatter — Yesterday at 10:29 AM

kesbird — Yesterday at 10:29 AM

Like I’m sorry but gym leader Eddie and Pokémon breeder Steve is something I 1000% need like PLEASE

Like I’m still thinking about the. Steve presenting Eddie with a newly hatched Impidimp that immediately climbs up Steve’s arm from his hands, onto his shoulder, to the top of his head while he just pulls at his hair and Eddie is like fuck im in love

It evolves into a midnight form and is suddenly the biggest badass around

Steve is a pokemon magnet and doesnt really care about like whether pokemon are legendaries or not, like he's aware of what legendaries are but doesn't really think about it too much so when he sees a pokemon coming up to him, all that really matters is that it's cute or friendly so there are multiple times where people had to do a double take because like a mew is mixed into the bunch of baby pokemon he's feeding or he's walking his group of baby pokemon around and there's like a ho-oh just waddling along behind them

Hi I need the first pokemon Steve ever picks for himself to be like, the ugliest eeakest little feebas ever and when it evolves into a badass militia literally everyone is like wtf

Feebas evolves by havign its Beauty condition raised to a high level so just imagine steve caring for its scales and feeding it high quality treats and constantly telling it how beautiful it is, all without even knowing that's how it evolves
