Summary
It’s quiet again. He doesn’t like the quiet. It’s never usually quiet between the two of them. He doesn’t like how the only sounds are Robin’s slight wheezing and his own heavy breathing.
“This is going to sound really shitty, but I’m glad you’re with me.” It’s not a vulnerable statement, but he feels vulnerable. He shouldn’t be glad she’s here. She should be far, far away and he should be happy about it. “I’d hate to be by myself in this place.”
Another soft rattle of her breath. “I’m glad I’m here, too.”
Robin won’t let Steve go alone. Not even at the end of the world. Especially not at the end of the world.

Summary
Lucas and his crush on Steve Harrington and his love for Max Mayfield.
He watches while Steve swings a bat and throws himself in front of Demodogs and saves Mad Max (who is definitely like, maybe, really uhh, more good looking than Steve Harrington). Most of what he remembers about that night are Max’s fingers cold and clammy in his, and the wild glint in Steve’s eye, the way he moved with the bat in the fog, his low whistle echoing out across the car wrecks in the moonlight, and Max’s scream.
After that night Max mercilessly needles him about his crush on Steve Harrington.
It’s whatever.

Summary
Eddie laughs at him—high and pained and beautiful. “I have never in my life felt sorry for your prissy ass, Harrington. I’ve wanted to pin you to the wall and kiss you until you beg me to touch you somewhere else. I’ve wanted to shake you until you got your head out of your ass and realized that Nancy wasn’t right for you, and that someone who could love you a whole lot better was standing just a few feet away from you.”
It’s nineteen ninety three. Steve Harrington is twenty-six. And he's blind.
And he’s decided he’s ready to start living again.
