Summary
“Uh, Nance?”
His anxious voice brings her back to reality. This isn’t a proposal to do… anything. Just a trip. With some of the kids.
“That’s… very sweet, Steve,” she starts, and winces because it already sounds like a negative to her own ears. “Won’t, uh, Jennifer mind?”
“Jessica,” he corrects quickly. “And, hum, I don’t think so. We broke it off like three months ago, actually.”
*******
Or: the one where Steve invites Nancy on a summer trip with three nuggets and they try (and fail) to pretend they don’t still have feelings for each other.

Summary
"I'm coming, Will," he muttered, pulling on his boots and lacing them with trembling fingers. His jaw set with a grimace that belonged to a much older man, a veteran of a war that hadn't even started yet. "I'm not letting it happen again. None of it."
He grabbed his keys and sprinted for the door, leaving the quiet safety of his bedroom behind. He didn't know how he had gotten here, and he didn't care. He had a world to save, and it started with a boy on a bike.

Summary
Steve's feet stumbled more than walked, but Hopper didn't care. He half-carried, half-dragged the kid toward the emergency room doors, his jaw clenched so tight it ached. Every step felt like it took too long.
As the two of them started to slowly stumble to the front of the ER, Hopper took a brief moment to think about it. Took a moment to think how despite everything—despite barely knowing the kid, despite all his preconceptions and assumptions, despite the amount of times Steve had purposefully acted like a smart-ass punk just to piss him off—Hopper had realized something tonight:
Steve Harrington was a good kid.

Summary
Steve swallowed hard, his jaw tightening. He didn’t say it out loud. He didn’t even let the thought fully form into words. Because who would listen? Who would believe the resident idiot, the babysitter with the bat, the guy whose best ideas usually came five seconds too late?
But he had seen it.
And Steve Harrington did not miss things like that.
